Hulk has unfriended Loki on Facebook

For those of you that have seen The Avengers, you know what happens when a mouthy god of mischief meets a gamma-irradiated brute with a short temper. But what happens when Loki of Asgard sends a friend request to social media Hulk on Facebook?

I guess it's pretty much the same thing.

Listen to our Avengers movie audio roundtable!

Have you seen The Avengers movie yet? Are you ready to pick up the discussion about the film and the whole Marvel Cinematic Universe where The Avengers ended? If so, get thee to Comic Related and listen to The Avengers movie roundtable podcast that I participated in along with several other online gurus including Rob Keyes (editor of Screen Rant), Brant Fowler (editor of Comic Related) and Marc N.

Video: The Avengers movie from 1978 you never saw!

Generation X and older people know that before there were Sam Raimi Spider-Man movies and Hugh Jackman played the X-Men's Wolverine, guys like Lou Ferrigno and Bill Bixby kicked weekly ass as Marvel's mightest heroes. Back in the late 1970s CBS had The Incredible Hulk TV show on the air. There was even a Captain America TV show that never got further than the pilot episode. While the effects budget that these superhero shows had was really limited, the excitement of just getting to see the Hulk or Captain America or some other comic book hero in live action was enough to satisfy most eager minds back in the age of Atari.

Wil Wheaton gets weepy when Star Trek: Next Generation cast reunites

This past Sunday in a cowboy hat wearing city of Canada known as Calgary, the entire cast of Star Trek: The Next Generation got together on stage for the first time in a looooong time. Not only were the seven principle cast members up there in front of 7,000 fans (Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes, Gates McFadden, Marina Sirtis, Brent Spiner, Michael Dorn, LeVar Burton) but so was fanboy enemy #1 himself, Wesley Crusher (Wil Wheaton) and even that dead sexcurity chief of the USS Enterprise, Tasha Yar (Denise Crosby).

It's a working Star Trek phaser

Star Trek has been more than a pop culture phenomenon; it's actually influenced technology and science, making what was once science fiction, science fact. While warp drive technology and the transporter aren't around to change our lives yet, today's smartphones can do more than Captain Kirk's communicator. There's even a working tricorder being developed.

Video: Pac-Man: The Movie

There's something wrong in the world of entertainment when fan-made films are of better quality than what Hollywood would make. The Pac-Man movie trailer/short film made by Steelhouse Studios is what happens when a creative group of people take a well-known property, like Namco's Pac-Man video game, and give it a high-powered cinematic treatment.

Before I watched their film, I would have thought there was very little that could be mined from Namco's Pac-Man game universe to make a movie from. After seeing this, I wouldn't call myself a full believer just yet -- but I've moved a lot closer towards thinking that a Pac-Man movie could work if it were executed similar to this.

Count the number of face punches in Road House

Watching Road House is not quite a guilty pleasure of mine; I'm not ashamed to say that I like it for what it is, something mindless, entertaining and absolutely implausible. Law enforcement doesn't seem to exist in the universe of Road House, which makes me suspect that it takes place a couple of states over from where the action in The Dukes of Hazzard is going down.

Back to the Future II hoverboard replica teased to ToyFair attendees

2015 is just three short years away. Unless the world sees some rapid technological discoveries in flying cars, 3D holographic, hydrated food and home fusion kits, I don't think that we're going to get to the same future world glimpsed in the 2015 scenes from 1989's Back to the Future Part II.

Ghost Rider co-creator ordered to pay Marvel $17,000

The second Ghost Rider movie opens in theaters this coming Friday. While audiences are paying to see Nicolas Cage go all flaming skull in Spirit of Vengeance, one of the creators of the comic book superhero has been asked to pay his former publisher $17,000 as part of a court ordered ruling.

Before Watchmen comic books announced

DC Comics has announced Before Watchmen, seven comic book mini-series that will chronicle earlier adventures of the characters from Watchmen, the seminal 12-issue series written by Alan Moore and drawn by Dave Gibbons. The comics will begin to come out this summer in specialty stores.

Video: Lionel Richie's Hello

When you're a fan of Lionel Richie love songs and Hollywood movies, what other way can you truly express your passion except through the form of a video mash-up?

Watch this: Pingu's The Thing

Here's another reason why the Internet is awesome: a two-minute version of John Carpenter's The Thing as played by the penguins from Pengu, the kids show.

Coming soon: sex in a sci-fi themed brothel

Nevada is known as being America's state of vice. It's the only place in the union where one can gamble and also purchase sex legally. Its government licensed whorehouses have always tried to one-up each other to attract their customers by claiming to offer the prettiest ladies and opulent themed rooms, but now there's a new brothel opening up that wants to catch the eye of the sci-fi crowd.

Jaws ride to end at Universal Studios Florida

For 22 years a great white shark has terrorized tourists on a tram ride. Millions of patrons have ridden the Jaws theme ride at Universal Studios Florida, subjecting themselves to a mechanical shark that pops out of the water and snarls at them as they pass by. While the Jaws ride may not be as sophisticated as other newer ones, it still remains the best known experience on the Universal Studios tram.

Video: Aliens on Ice! The Musical

A talented group of Austinites have created what I would have never expected to witness: a musical retelling of James Cameron's Aliens, performed by the actors on ice skates. Let that sink into your cerebral cortex for a moment before I show you the video.

Oh yes indeed...there's a video.
