Boob Toob Supplemental: Yes, we're still here!

I went on a holiday (it was fun) and one of my other partners in crime did a blog (those jerks) but now we're back (who cares) to do another Boob Toob Supplemental!

The image you see above was done by freelance concept artist Khyzyl Saleem. I like Marty's new car a lot.

I'm just gonna throw at you every video I've been hoarding.


The Leviathan

I'm speechless. Stop reading and go watch the damn thing!

Thanks to recent guest on the show and super nice guy Nick Brokenshire for posting this. I will punch things if this doesn't get made as a longer movie.

Arnold Schwarzenegger as Darth Vader

George Lucas messed up by not casting Arnold as Vader.

Thanks Jon.

Where No Boob Has Gone Before

This might take you a while to watch but it's pretty interesting, at least for a science goober like me. You get to see light travel outwards from the sun in real time.

Thanks Rowland Pearce.

87 Bounces

Neat!

Jurassic World Trailer

Looks good but needs more Goldbloom.

Pixels trailer

I like like a lot of these games (ARKANOID!) so I hope this movie doesn't suck.

Marvel Photobomb Team-Up

In case you were curious what Cap and Star-Lord do when they're not saving the world/galaxy...

Beautiful Chemistry

This wasn't done using CGI apparently. They did those chemical reactions and filmed it. So pretty.

Check out their website for more chemistry goodness.

Every 90s Commercial Ever

Thanks Vernson. I don't even...

Boob Toob Supplemental: Ooga chaka edition

Check out that sweet Attack on Titan and Adventure Time mashup by Rodrigo Alexandrino ICO! High res version available here and you can go here to see his process and some close ups. So good!

Less than 6 hours until I see the Guardians of the Galaxy movie so let's knock out another Boob Toob Supplemental!


3D Futurama

Keeping things within the cartoon realm, check out this 3D version of the Futurama opening scene. Looks beautiful, doesn't it?

More info and video/pics here. Thanks to fellow Boober and Toober Wendi Freeman for bringing this to our attention.


No Man's Sky featurette

Short little video on the story of Hello Games, the studio behind upcoming PS4 game No Man's Sky. This game looks and sounds so damn good, I may have to buy a PS4 just for it.

Lupin the Third live action movie trailer

YES! The world's greatest thief, Arsène Lupin III, finally gets a live action adaptation!*

The movie comes out in Japan on August 30 and it's directed by Ryuhei Kitamura who also directed films such as Versus, Godzilla: Final Wars and apparently Midnight Meat Train which I've never seen but sounds interesting enough based on the title. He also directed the in game cutscenes for the video game Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes which is a Game Cube remake of the original Playstation game Metal Gear Solid. He's a cool dude.

The movie looks beautiful and I love how the characters look and seem to act a lot like the manga/anime versions of themselves. Fujiko is crazy hot, as she should since her character is a bit of a seductress. Can't wait to see it!

* Ooops, I apologise. Below is the first Lupin the Third live action adaptation.

Talk of the Town

ABC's Australian Story recently did a feature on Aussie singer Megan Washington. She talked about her fear of public speaking and her debilitating stutter. It was really engaging and well done and made me care for this person who I never heard of before (I'm not hip and up to date with what the cool kids listen to). Some info here and the transcript here. No YouTube embed or a link to the video (couldn't find one online) but I thought I'd share anyway.


Birdman trailer

I never understood the term 'batshit insane' until I saw this trailer. No idea what it's about and I don't think I wanna know, I just wanna go in there without knowing any info. Also, aw yeah Keaton being Keaton! And a bunch of other famous peeps are in it too. Bobgar likes Edward Norton and he's in here. Gotta see this movie NOW!

In case you didn't click and watch the trailer, here's some Keaton for ya!

Thanks to Devin Bruce (Doctor Teeth on Twitter and other places) for bringing this to my attention.


BATMETAL!

I accidentally sent this video to my mother. I fail at internetz. Fun video though. Good thing it had subtitles since I wouldn't have been able to understand squat.

Thanks to John at Burnt Weiners for tweeting this.


Artists vs TMNT

That's great and all but where's Vanilla Ice?

TMNT Saturday Morning Slow Jams

Nope, we're not done with the TMNT love just yet. Check it out, son!

Zombeavers trailer

Whuuuuut?

Thanks, ya Comic Bastards! (No, that's not an insult. That's their name! Get off my case!)


Not long now before...

Boob Toob Supplemental: Hooked on a feeling edition!

Star Wars trailer... Guardians of the Galaxy Style!

Here's a fan edited trailer for the original Star Wars using the Guardians of the Galaxy trailer music. Pretty neat, don't'cha think? I'm soooooo excited for both movies. I hope GotG is great and I hope Luke kicks some ass. Screw that Han Solo and his stupid broken leg!

The Legend of Korra: Book 3 trailer

The best animated series in recent memory is about to return for a 3rd season. CAN. NOT. WAIT!

Incredibox v3

Something different! This one isn't a video (but it can be ‘viewed’ on a computer so it still counts as a Boob Toob), more of an interactive audio experience (and some video if you can unlock the bonus content). Pretty funky, try it out! There’s a v1 and v2 as well with different tunes.

Big Hero 6 trailer

Fun trailer on an upcoming animated movie by Disney which is based on an old Marvel book. Not super old but this was when they were doing the Marvel Manga stuff. The concept may be different, I remember the book featuring 6 heroes. Or at least it seemed that way based on the covers. Maybe this is the Disneyfied version. I love that white blob dude.

Real life version of Kirito's Elucidator from Sword Art Online

Nice work by the guys at Man At Arms for not only creating an awesome real life replica of Kirito's blade from the anime Sword Art Online, but also for this cool ass 'making of' video. Check out their other videos white you're at it, I think I saw Link's sword in there.

Hentai Kamen

Sent in by Billy (a.k.a. Aqualec) although I'm not sure why, it's not like I'm into this weird crap. Nope, not at all...

Ikaruga review

Here's an old one for ya. Greg Kasavin at Gamespot gives a good video review for what is possibly the best shooter ever. Ikaruga was originally released on the Sega Dreamcast and eventually on the Nintendo Gamecube (I owned that one). I just saw it for sale on Steam which prompted me to look up some videos for it. I might have to get it again!

I’ll let the video below explain the game mechanics but for me, the main draw was that it didn't require you to simply avoid enemy fire. If you turn your ship white, you can absorb the white enemy fire and use it to power you up. Same deal with black enemy fire, just turn yourself black. So it’s a totally different play style than, say, Gradius (which I also adore). There’s a ton of depth to this game, most of which you’ll probably only realise once you’ve played it a few times.

The easy mode is challenging but doable. This game can be absolutely brutal though when going up the difficulty levels. You might get to a point where you can finish the levels in the higher difficulties but what’s your score like? Can you chain combos together (hitting 3 enemies of the same colour) or do you just barely make it out alive?

And even if you’re that damn good, are you good enough to handle two ships at once like this bad ass below? He’s getting a crazy amount of combos too. What a legend!

If you like shooters, I can't recommend Ikaruga highly enough.

Boob Toob Supplemental: 45mins until my long weekend starts

Easter is upon us which means most people here in Australia get a 4 day weekend. If you plan it in advance (as some peeps in my department did) you can have almost 2 weeks off just by taking a few days off work. There's only 3 work days next week because we have Monday off and then Friday (April 25) is Anzac Day. So some people here took 3 days off next week and I won't be seeing them for almost 2 weeks. I'm already taking 2 weeks off at the start of May so I'll be staying put next week. It's all good, at least I get 2 long weekends in a row.

But you didn't come here to hear about my life story, right? You came here for some videos. Let's do this!

Origin of memes

If you ever wanted to know where your favourite memes came from, how's about you leave Britney alone (that's a meme, right?) and check out the video below. I can never ever ever get enough of Star Trek memes.

Japanese intro to the X-Men 90s cartoon

Pretty freaking epic. Thanks to either Billy Z (from Comic Book Bears) or Gerry McDade (the G in GXPod) for alerting me to this. I don’t know which one of them posted it because it was done on Facebook and I don’t know how any of it works. (Get off my back!) But apparently Jon Westhoff (the guy that says “and we’re baaaack” on E2P) originally posted it.

More info on the opening can be found here. I wish they did a whole series in this animation style.

CRY FOR THE MOOOOOOOOON!

Gotta catch... all the Avengers??

More Japanese Marvel goodness! This is the opening to Disk Wars Avengers. It sounds a lot like a mash up Earth's Mightiest Heroes with Pokemon. Thanks to Kross on the 11 O'Clock Comics forum for pointing this out. POKEVENGERS!

360° video made from 6 GoPro cameras

By Vimeo user j0n4s. This is pretty neat, I'd love to try something similar. I've embedded the video below but you'll want to check it out on Vimeo to see the original and better quality version. Mone info on how it was done can be found here (you may want to translate it in English).

4D? I barely have a handle on 3D!

Pretty trippy looking game called Miegakure. I may have to check this out. More info at Kotaku. FYI the 4th dimension is not time.

Shatner kills Shakespeare

Say whaaaat?!? Why would anyone wanna kill Billy Shakespeare? Watch the video below to find out. They used Legos to make it too and you know how popular Legos are these days. 

Speaking of Legos...

Check out these adults who get to play with Legos. That's exactly what I'm gonna do once I retire. Play Legos all day.

Best. Thing. Ever.

Boob Toob Supplemental: The CHOMP Edition!

What's Chomp (I love that guy) doing in the Winter Olympics? What's Mega Man's creator up to? Why is water going uphill? The answers to those and life's other mysteries await you in this latest installment of BOOB TOOB SUPPLEMENTAL!

Mario Kart Winter Olympics

A bit late but here you go. Thanks to Bossman Bobgar for sending this to me. CHOMP!

Mighty No. 9

Here's a video from the Game Developers Conference (GDC) 2014 that showcases the 9 robots featured in the game. I haven't been following this game much but I do like the visuals a lot. It seems to play like Mega Man which is neat but I hope there's more to it than just Mega Man style gameplay. Based on what I've seen, it seems a bit like Ben 10 but with robots. I hope it's a hit. Check out the Wikipedia entry for some info on the development history and the Kickstarter campaign that they did.

Water going uphill

WHAT MANNER OF SORCERY IS THIS?!?!?! Thanks to this article at io9 for pointing it out. Science is great.

Tom & Jerry as anime girls

Another video sent to me by the boss. Pretty cool remake of sorts. Check out this article at Cartoon Brew for more info on how it was done.

The Dam Keeper trailer

That Bobgar sure likes his animation. Check out this trailer for the Dam Keeper, a super pretty short film by Pixar artists Dice Tsutsumi and Robert Kondo. More info can be found at Cartoon Brew or just go to the official website which looks very fancy.

Suit up!

Nice compilation of heroes getting ready to kick butt. I saw Dredd Urban in there so Bobgar should like that. Get to da choppa!

Human Evolution

Here's a Deus Ex short film written and directed by Moe Charif. I haven't played the Deus Ex games so maybe it doesn't seem as awesome to me as it would to those who are familiar with those games but it looks good nonetheless. It seems to have higher production values than that Portal short film from a few years back.

Portal: No Escape

Aaaand here’s that Portal short film I was just talking about in case you haven't seen it. It's short and very simple but I like it more nonetheless. It was made back in 2011 and was directed by Dan Trachtenberg, the guy who will be directing the Y: The Last Man movie. Portal is a sweet game.

A Bunch of Trailers and some Studio Ghibli

New year, new stuff to watch. Starting with one of my most anticipated movies of 2014...

Godzilla trailer

Not a lot to say except SCREEEEEEECH! Also, Bryan Cranston! And Ken "Ra's Al Ghul" Watanabe. And Rosen from Alphas. And Kick-Ass.

The Raid 2: Berandal official trailer

Okay so the trailer I posted on the last Boob Toob Supplemental was actually the red band trailer and this is the official trailer. So much action in the trailer alone. Can't wait to see this!

Jupiter Ascending trailer

Forgot to post this back in December when it was released. Cool trailer for the next film by Andy & Lana Wachowski. I loved their work on Cloud Atlas especially the future sci-fi scenes* so I'm looking forward to seeing how they tackle a full blown sci-fi movie.

By the way, I loved the heck out of Speed Racer. Still do. Just wanted to say that.

* This might be partially because of Korean model/actress Doona Bae who played the robot in those future scenes. She also played the sex doll who gains sentience in the movie Air Doll. As silly as that may sound, it's a proper movie and a good one at that. Go watch it!

The Grandmaster trailer

This movie has been on my 'to watch' list for some time. Don't let the "in theatres January 31" bit fool you, that's January 31, 2013! It looks amazing and I've heard good things about it. So this might make it into a future Boob Toob.

2013 in Gaming - The Year in Under 2 Minutes

Need to get caught up on last year’s games? Here ya go. Heck, I need to get caught up on at least 5 years worth of games.

Simpsons Ghibli!

I haven't seen the actual episode that this appears in but awwwwww yeah!

I recently saw two Studio Ghibli films: Tales from Earthsea and Arietty (or The Borrower Arietty or The Secret World of Arietty). Won't say too much since I may mention them on a future Boob Toob but both are good animated flicks.
