From the guys who make the, “Hi, I’m a Marvel…and I’m a DC“, videos.

With the Summer barely even here yet, Marvel and DC don’t have any big movies lined up, which is a surprise considering last year was a monster Summer with The Dark Knight, Iron Man, and The Incredible Hulk. What else can the Marvel and DC guys do…keep on trekkin’. Or wait for Iron Man 2.

This is actually a pretty good spoof on the Star Trek trailer. Seeing how Angels & Demons just beat Star Trek for the weekend Box Office, maybe they should have spoofed that. Nah, it wouldn’t have been as good.

Here are 3 brand new TV Spots for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. They’re actually the first TV spots for the movie. Did anybody else notice how Shia’s yell for, “Bumblebee!” in the video above was the same exact yell for, “Optimus!”, in the full length trailer? It must be cool to have your own personal Autobot army…and Megan Fox.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen opens on June 24th, just a little over a month away! Check out the other 2 new TV spots below!

Space Shuttle Atlantis silhouetted against the Sun

Yes, this is actually a photograph of the Space Shuttle Atlantis. This was taken on May 12th, 24 hours after the launch of Atlantis, and it’s half way to the Hubble Telescope. Amazing.

The photo below is also of Atlantis, but take a closer look. There are two objects. One, Atlantis, the second is the Hubble Telescope. This photo was taken just minutes before Atlantis finally caught up with Hubble.

Both of these photos were taken from the Kennedy Space Center, by Thierry Legault. Check out the full photos, in all of their glory, over at Nasa’s flickr page.

Here’s a high resolution photo taken during the repair spacewalk. These photos are instantly classic, and are definitely some of the most exciting and interesting space photos I’ve seen. Click on it to check out the full photo over at nasa.gov.

Adobe CS PillowsIt was only a matter of time before somebody made Adobe CS Pillows. Just look at the icons, they’re perfect for pillow adaptation.

Each of these pillows sell for $15, plus shipping; or you can just buy the entire set of 6 for $80, saving $10 off the total. They’re such a huge hit, it could take 7-9 weeks to receive your pillows. Then again, they are handmade, so what else would you expect? People aren’t machines!

I’m considering buying the Photoshop pillow, probably two; one for each end of the couch. I wouldn’t buy the Dreamweaver pillow though; I’m a wordpad guy, as every web designer and developer should be.

Head on over to MySuiteStuff to order your pillows! via technabob

Shark Attack HatNo, I’m not calling this kid a son of a bitch; I’m just taking this chance to use my favorite quote from Jaws. A mom from the Craftster forum made this for her son, thus qualifying her for an awesome mom award.

“I made this hat for my son – he wanted a mean shark. I saw the dead fish hat pattern and loved the idea – I just varied the pattern quite a lot to make different looking species. And felted it so it looks like it jumped out of the water and landed on his head…”

I wish my mom would knit me a cool animal hat…Click on the picture to enlarge.

Racist Camera

Flickr user !!! :: jozjozjoz :: !!! had a little run in with an intolerant, racist camera. She bought her mother a new Nikon S630 digital camera for Mother’s Day, and decided to take it to a baseball game to use it for the first time. Turns out the camera discriminates against Asian features. Just look at that little face to the left of the “Did someone blink?” text.

What else is there to say other than this girl has a talented mouth? Looking at the title of the video, she goes by, “Amazing Beat Box Girl”, and yes, she is amazing. Watch the video.
