Angery Alien productions has many, many more shorts like this on their website.

Buffy and Firefly creator Joss Whedon answers the question “Why do you create strong women characters?” for Equality Now, his favorite charity, and the benefactor of Can’t Stop The Serenity, a theatrical charity re-release of the big screen continuation of Firefly.
After watching this, is it any wonder he’s one of the most popular writers/creators in movies, tv, and comics?

Al Gore has more news about our climate crisis, but he’s been interrupted in this video by an obnoxious heckler.

I don’t make a habit of watching G4, but I caught a little bit of an old show about the history of the NES, and during the commercial break, they were advertising floor coverage of San Diego Comic Con, not unlike their floor coverage of E3.

Anyway, they said on July 21st (or sometime that week) they’ll have some kind of major announcement about the Transformer movie. Phil Bond sarcastically remarked its probably just the trailer, but considering Dreamworks put that big truck on the floor last year, theres still a chance they’ll do something to surprise us.

New Super Mario Bros. is selling 20 units every minute in the US. Thats 1 every 3 seconds, up from 1 every 4 seconds earlier in the month. Wow.

So whats the scoop?   X-ray Visor and Hyper-Mode are back, and you’ll traverse multiple planets like in the recent DS release, Metroid Prime: Hunters.  Backtracking an exploration will remain in tact, something woefully missing from Hunters.  Also makin appearances will be more Phazon, more competing bounty hunters, and more Metroids.
They also say multiplayer will be back, but not in the same way it was included in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes.  Wii’s WiFi capabilities are a given.

The best part is they confirm Metroid Prime 3: Corruption will be a launch title for the Nintendo Wii, due out by the end of the year.

In an interview with Chief Producer at Bandai Namco Daisuke Uchiyama , about a forthcoming DragonBall Z game, he speaks of his wish to have had the Tekken of Soul Calibur teams work on the title before the merger.

However, it was not possible since Tekken 6 is already in production (as shown in PS3 “visual target” demos), and apparently Soul Calibur 4 is moving ahead as well.

No date, no system, no nothing announced.  But its likely this will be a big Next-Gen jump for what has historically been one of the best looking fighters on the market.
