We’ve explored earth-shattering historical events and life-changing religions through the eyes of Facebook, but our true holy land lays within the vision of George Lucas. Dorkly takes a look at Episode IV in their Facebook storytelling rendition of Star Wars: A New Hope. And for those of you who think that the reason Chewbacca didn’t get his medal at the end of the movie was based on some sort of Wookiee bias, think again. Chewie was simply too tall for...

Robots can be masterful pieces of art when enough funding, research, knowledge and artistry goes into their designs, but I think it’s important to remember that not all robots are created equal. ChefBot, an entry in SparkFun’s Antimov Competition is not a well-made robot. In fact, he’s down right hazardous. But what he lacks in precision and safety, he gains in entertainment value. Or we gain, I should say. In this video ChefBot attempts to make a Creme Brulee. This... Continue reading

Unicorns are graceful, gorgeous and delicious, and they also happen to have no sense of humor. Take a comedic jab at a unicorn and you can expect two feet of pure horn right through your chest. The Avenging Unicorn toy comes with a collection of four different horns and three victims, including a mime. Sadly, no hipsters are included. You can get your own Avenging Unicorn toy for $14.99, or you can take the riskier path and wrangle your own... Continue reading

Imagine a world where Citizen Kane, Casablanca, The Usual Suspects and Back to the Future featured smartphones. Watching classic cinema would be a hell of a different experience. Maybe the lack of smartphones is the reason they’re so classic in the first place? So sure, maybe Ingrid Bergman and Humphrey Bogart get a few more hours together, and yeah, Chuck Berry gets the credit he deserves before he even writes “Johnny B. Goode.” But is that all so bad? If... Continue reading

Featuring a grand total of zero points of articulation, one of the most iconic images of sci-fi film history is now available in “inactive” figure form. Capable of spurring evolution amongst your other action figures, the 6.75″ monolith is made of “semisynthetic, organic, amorphous, solid materials.” In other words, plastic. But don’t get too excited just yet, the Monolith Action Figure was nothing more than a cleverly crafted hoax crafted by April Fools’ geniuses ThinkGeek. Don’t be too shocked if... Continue reading

You’re not going to believe what might be lurking inside of your PS3. I’ve been wondering why it hasn’t been running right. As it turns out, the PS3 makes an excellent bed for a pet rodent (and probably premature babies as well). Though we highly recommend you take out all of the innards first. Hit the jump to see why.

Don’t be confused. This is not the life of a troll. No, trolls relish their hate and return over and over, refreshing the page every few seconds looking for more troll bait. Most internet commenters are a different species all together. They only speak up when there is something wrong or they’re disgusted, vowing never to return to your site again. The next day they start the cycle all over again. Luckily for us, the Gearfuse readers are some of... Continue reading

Megatron, such a naughty transformer. I wonder if Michael Bay would be up to the challenge of creating a literal Transformers movie. Come on, man, there’s definitly an opportunity for some major sparks and explosions, perhaps even some light electrocution. This version of Transformers might not be quite as exciting as the real deal, but it sure as hell is funnier. Plus, it’s Shia LeBeouf-free. Bonus! Link [via]

If you’re a Netflix subscriber you’ve undoubtedly seen the company’s gradual specificity of their genre recommendations. It probably has something to do with integrating the algorithms of those companies who were lucky enough to win the two original contests to improve the company’s recommendation engine. Recommendations have moved from days of stunning vagueness, the most basic of categorizations, to the ultra specific categories it divides films into today. “Gritty Drama.” “Violent Comedies.” CollegeHumor took Netflix’s ever increasing specifics and took...

CAPTCHAs are good for other things beside security and the occasional laugh. For one, they can fulfill dreams. They can destroy dreams too. They can be the stuff of our nightmares. But they can also be inspirational. These CAPTCHAs inspired an artist to create comics devoted to the word combinations. These internet security-inspired comics are so cool and so puntastic that I half expect them to put on a pair of sunglasses before each punchline. YEEEEEAAAHHHH!
