Topless Robot has the correct reaction to the new Batmobile:
Doctor Who theme remixesI can't imagine the Bat-rims are part of his intimidating criminals and so forth, because frankly, they're ridiculous. All custom rims are ridiculous. No decent criminal would think a man driving a car with custom rims should be feared; they'd think he's a douchebag. If I saw a car whose rims all said "Steve" on them, I'd assume a guy named Steve drove the car, and that Steve was a huge dick.
So is Batman feeling his age? Is he trying to get down with the kids? Is this Robin's fault? Was he minutes away from putting neon underneath the car, and decided on the rims instead?
Whomix is so Awesome.
Piltdown
There's only one thing better than dinosaur comics: FREE dinosaur comics!
BioShock movie
I'm not a videogamer, but I've always loved the design of BioShock and a movie made from it sounds excellent. Especially one directed by Gore Verbinski.
Mapping the Mysterious Island
I love it when people with more time than I've got spend it making things I love.
Batman vs. pirates
If you don't know about The Daily Batman yet, here's an excellent example of why you should.
More new Bond pics
Can be found here. Some small, potential spoilers there, I guess.
Indiana Jones makes everything better, continued

Literature maps
Gnod has come up with a fun tool to help you discover new writers based on the writers you already know you like. You decide who you want in the center of the map and the program does the rest. The closer two writers are on the map, the more likely you'll dig them both.
New Knight Rider show back to drawing board, sort of
New Showrunner Gary Scott Thompson promises to up the Awesome when he and his writers turn the new Knight Rider pilot into an actual series.
We sort of had to backpaddle, and the good thing about what they did - and by the way I had nothing to do with the 2-hour (movie), I was brought in afterwards to do the series - the good thing about what they did with it is they left it almost a blank slate. There are a few things, but everything that was there we can either fill in and embellish or basically discredit in some way and say no that's not the truth. Actually that's open very well for us mythology-wise. One of the things we're going to play with is Mike's military background, and there's a couple of little secrets in there that I'm not going to reveal to you right now, but there's some fun stuff. And then the other thing we're doing too is just the car- I really want this car to be super cool and super hot. We've gone back in and we're really redesigning the whole Attack Car, and that's going to be a big secret we're going to hang on to as long as we can (laughs), exactly what the car can and can't do.
...This has to be super cool. And it has to be super cool every week. And there has to be really cool gadgets, and technology-wise, we're at a level where stuff should be way beyond what we're seeing now, and that's where we want to go.
