Since Amy is the only one who loves ARCHER more than we do, we’re dedicating this Vulture post about the character models for the animated program to her — with a warning that she’ll probably be a bit skeeved (but sadly, not surprised) by the openly lascivious way the writer talks about Lana’s character model, who happens to be a Hooters waitress in real life. No, I’m not...

You can either use an arc reactor to power an Iron Man suit, or to propose to your girlfriend. Either way, Happy Valentine’s Day! [via...

Big thanks to Jennifer May Nickels from “Gal About Town” for sending this “Daleks in Love” mug to us. Sadly, it’s currently out of stock, at the Betwixxt Etsy shop, but keep it in mind for your nerdy anniversary. This is also a great gift for couples who haven’t been together all that long, but already know that they share a great love … of Dr....

Just in case you haven’t had a chance to think about how much you just love fictional robots lately, here’s a timeline. Try not to be bitter that we’ve yet to get a robot maid ala Rosie from THE JETSONS. [via The Mary...

Welcome back to the love fest blog about The Making of Harry Potter Tour– Part Two! If you missed Part 1, click here. Last time we met, we were just about to enter the Great Hall through the magnificent Hogwarts main doors. The Great Hall was absolutely majestic and awe inspiring. Additionally, since it was the holiday season, they had the hall decorated much like it was for Christmas in the movies. As you walked through the halls, you could see the carvings kids had made in the benches and tables over the years, costumes from The Philosopher’s Stone, and then the costumes of the Professors and Staff of Hogwarts at the head of the room. I got goose bumps as I stood in front of Dumbledore’s owl carved stand. From the Great Hall you walk into the main exhibit room of the tour. Here you are introduced to the Producers and Directors of the movies, and what inspired them in their work on the movies. From there you move on to see costumes, ice sculptures and food from the Yule Ball. Interestingly enough, they used both real and fake versions of the cakes and treats created from the props department for filming the Yule Ball. This was the start of the “vignettes” for each department from Art, Props, Hair/Makeup, Costumes, etc. The entire tour has a great variety from each of the departments, but the vignettes help you to discover a bit about what each department does. And while there’s a wealth of costumes around the whole exhibit, of course I had wished there had been a bit more to the Costumes vignette. What was really interesting about their vignette is that they had two mannequin’s there; one wearing Fleur Delacour’s Beauxbaton uniform,...

I love Tilda Swinton. I love Tom Hiddleston (better known as Loki from THOR and THE AVENGERS). And I love, love, love director, Jim Jarmusch. So I’m pretty sure I’m going to just adore his upcoming movie, ONLY LOVERS LEFT ALIVE, which involves two of the people I love playing longtime vampire lovers. Here’s a first image: [via...

Let’s keep it real- I don’t have any problems. Not really. I’m not a Haitian earthquake survivor still struggling to rebuild or a Somalian child born into a world of famine and strife or the (former) Head Electrician of the New Orleans Superdome who painstakingly rebuilt his life after Hurricane Karina only to lose everything to Hurricane Beyonce- or should I say Hurricane Mrs. Carter (not to be confused with the former First Lady who has her own Mrs. Carter show “Fuck Habitat for Humanity, could you fix the fucking shelf in the kitchen already?”) And don’t tell me that you believe that “electrical relay” Jay-Z cover-up story- it had to be Beyonce who blew the power with her thousands of lights, dozens of video screens and two super-powerful mind control rays aimed at Michelle and Kelly to keep them from pouncing on top of her and stabbing her repeatedly like Ray Lewis in a production of Julius Caesar (“I come to bury Caesar not to praise him. The only person I’m gonna praise is JESUS!”) No- the only conclusion we can draw is that the Superdome was not ready for this jelly. You’re doing a heck of a job, Beyonce. Anyhow, I’ve been thinking a lot about people like Haitian earthquake survivors and all the other millions of poor schmucks around the world who would absolutely LOVE to have problems like mine (Oh. I’m sorry? Did I just manage to work this week’s obligatory Fierce & Nerdy “Love” theme into this post in the second paragraph? BOOM! That’s how it’s done, kid. Ain’t no arbitrary theme that I can’t incorporate in a totally half-assed and gratuitous way. Bring on Book Week, motherfuckas! ) because I’ve been really stressed out about buying a couch....
