Portal 2: All you have is a gun with no bullets, a bunch of paint, and a useless talking metal ball
Little Big Planet: You just run around as a sack.
Mario Kart: You kill turtles and throw them at people in cars to cause millions of dollars in damage and pollute the environment with explosive shrapnel, toxic emissions, banana peels, and shell fragments, only to win a trophy and be looked down upon by seven other members of society for being an awful and destructive person.
Left 4 Dead 2: You die cause tanks like popping out of random places when you have low health.
Dragon Age Origins: You solve every-ones problems, then you kill a dragon.

Dragon Age II: Spend seven years watching everything you love be destroyed, then start a war with exploding poop, and run away.
Alternatively:
Dragon Age II: Fetch Quest the game. You spend the majority of the game running around suspiciously similar looking places to find things people lost or are too lazy to get themselves. And while your doing that, hordes of people will appear out of no where/jump down rooftops and attack you.
skyrim: do everyone’s dirty work and get thrown into the air by giants

Nic’s new gif.
That is an amazing gif. I would not be able to do it justice.
You should provide me with like 20-30 photographs and I can try.
I think it would be easier to take two videos and just interlace them. But I don’t know how to do that.
Actually, if the hand had a greenscreen underlay it would be quite easy - You’d film the boy, film the hand, filter the green from the hand footage, superimpose the hand on the footage of the boy and viola. For the variations in speed, you’d keep the two images on separate filming tracks, modify the speed until they both match up/ you’re happy with the result, buffer, done.
-tucks away her media degree-
You need two films of the boy overlayed though. Cause still face and head shaking. Given the flicker, could they have swapped between films each frame. Is that a thing?
There is an underlying footage of him opening and closing his mouth, but it’s not quite smooth which makes me thing they’ve just inserted other images into that track. (which is slightly sped up, as well.)The other boy! footage is actually a trackable shot of him moving his head and flipping his hair, but it’s very sped up, probably 4-6x.
So it’s probably 2 pieces of footage spliced together, rather than overlaying. It’d probably be 2 frames of boy opening his mouth, 2 frames him tossing his hair, 2 frames of boy opening his mouth. That’s a bit more tricky, involves some cutting and splicing, but that’s more time-consuming than technically difficult. (Also, there’s probably a stock filter that’ll do it if you give it two pieces of footage, which cuts out the time-consuming part.)
It looks like it’s overlaying because our eyes can’t track the movement fast enough, but if you catch the gif on paused moments, the image is fully one or the other.

I totally need the JC to go with my grey and statue of liberty minifigs. :D

Voodoo Tiki Tequila uses date rape and rape culture to sell liquor. One of my friends sent this to me along with the following commentary:
So, apparently the guys at Voodoo Tiki Tequila think date rape is a cute thing to make ads about. Please share and react.
My letter to the marketing division:
Dear Sir or Madame;
I’m writing in regards to your ad in the April 2012 Harvard Lampoon on page 24. The ad depicts the feet of two people who are implied to be naked and the slogan “The Only Tequila Classified as a Weapon by Bachelors Worldwide”. Getting a girl drunk enough that she has sex with you when you know she wouldn’t have sex with you otherwise is called rape. I find the fact that your product appears to be recommending the use of your product to rape women disgusting. I would like to hope that this is simply a terribly faux pas. Please issue a public apology for this appalling ad. Until you do, I will continue to share this image with my friends and recommend that they do not purchase your product.
Sincerely,
Arielle Kubie
Middletown, CT
The email address, should you care to write your own letter, is Marketing@voodootiki.com.
The creator of Voodoo Tiki Tequila is John Taddeo, who is @JTCompany on Twitter. If you don’t have the energy to write a whole letter, send that person a tweet telling them advertising of this nature is unacceptable. (Other ways to contact John Taddeo include emailing them personally at JT@JohnTaddeo.com, calling them directly at (561) 702-6478, or sending a snail mail letter to 3907 North Federal Highway, Pompano Beach, FL. 33064. If you’re on Facebook, you can also write a complaint with a link to this post on Voodoo Tiki Tequila’s Facebook page.)
The image, by the way, is a stock photo whose creator apparently pictured red “so it can be used to support AIDS cause.” Voodoo Tiki Tequila isn’t a brand that seems to care about craftsmanship or originality, just profit. If on that fact alone, I would not purchase their product. Given their advertising, I encourage everyone to boycott it entirely.
If this product were any good, they wouldn’t need sexism to sell it.
What the fuck is this, I don’t even.
Signal boost. This is important.
Argh, okay. I’m going to let my Disney geek out of her closet for a bit.
I love how much Kiara looks like Simba, rather than Nala. They could have taken the easy route and made her character a male, Mufasa mark 3 if you’ll allow, but they didn’t. They chose to make her female and more like her dad than her mother. I mean sure, there are obvious differences - she doesn’t have a mane, she’s not male. But the blunt muzzle, the yellow-brown eyes, even her paws being sligly oversized - they’re all Simba. There’s not really a scrap of Nala on her.
They could have taken the easy route - made Kovu female (How many dark brown lions are there in this series, after all) - but they chose not to. I mean, when you look at him, really look, Kovu starts to look nothing like Scar at all - his eyes are completely different, his facial structure is more filled out (even though he has the same over-emphasised jaw) and his mane is completely different in the way it falls.
I just love the cleverness of these designs, even if the movie is kind of terrible. Once you look past the surface resemblance, there’s a completely different sort of resemblance underneath.
Reblogging for that middle panel, because, you know, that would have been something nice for the movie to explain, so I wasn’t going “WHY THE HELL IS HE SPEAKING ENGLISH IN GERMANY? WHY ARE THEY SPEAKING ENGLISH BACK? SHOULDN’T THEY BE SPEAKING THE GERMAN EQUIVALENT OF ‘BRO, I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU JUST SAID. BRO, REALLY, BRO.’”
All it would have taken was Tony snarking and Thor being all deadpan “What, no. this is why.” And Tony being all “Cool story, bro.” Not even in Germany. After Germany even. Just at some point in the movie, someone could have said “This is why this happened. Plot hole filled and tarred.”
THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO GO SEE THESE MOVIES WHO HAVEN’T READ THE COMIC BOOKS.
