We warned you about this. All 4 day passes, both with and without preview night, for the 2010 San Diego Comic Con are sold out. Now, you can try to whine, cry, complain, or blame Team Edward, but nothing you do now will get you a 4-day pass to the mecca of Comic nerdery. Your only option now is to wait for 1-day passes to go on sale online on December 15th and buy a pass for each day. If you miss those tickets, then I don’t know what to do for you.

Advanced CG Graphics are being used for Bumble Bee
The popularity of Transformers 2 is bewildering.
It looks like brilliant advertising has made it impossible for consumers to discern (1) a movie with big explosions, flashing lights and a pair of tits from (2) a genuinely shitty movie.
A midnight opening was once reserved for a certain (negative) stereotype, but it has somehow found its way onto the Twitters and Facebook statuses of the mainstream.
The numbers at the box office make one wonder: how many of those ticket-buyers have actually heard of or seen the original Transformers? And while it’s not intended to be a condescending speculation, it’s hard for me to believe that the majority of the (millions of) people who have seen it (and who will see it) were interested in overgrown transforming robots from the 80s.
So, what makes these CGI’d Takara toys so appealing and how were so many people enticed?
I can only conclude that the media has done a wonderful job of spoon-feeding us gold plated piles of shit – the kind with big explosions, flashing lights and a pair of tits.
What will they think of next?
First things first.
This post is not about Leonard Nimoy. This post is DEFINITELY NOT about Zachary Quinto. This post is about Spock and why I wouldn’t mind having a little bit of (perhaps half) Vulcan in me.

Dear Jamie,
I watch very, very little television, and the few shows I do watch come from BitTorrents.
Ever watch House?
Signed,

I am at just pure awe at the level of talent put into this video. There is so much creativity going on that my head was about to explode. From the fact that it’s all shot in one take, to the perfect lighting, to the awesome lyrics of a REAL (non-auto-tuned) rapper, to the introductions of each part that helped the beat bulid.
I truly hope this guy makes it big. Mainstream rap hasn’t been the same lately and we need to bring REAL rap back - starting with this guy.

UPDATE: Sammy points out that the beat originally came from Lil Wayne. After a quick Google search, I come to see that Sammy is correct. But Lil’ Wayne’s version just sounds like regular mainstream clear channel trash. Good beat, but it doesn’t actually “build” up like Nyle’s version. Plus, Nyle’s version has lyrics you can understand and enjoy while Lil’ Wayne is just sounding like a guy who is high or drunk (or both). Lil’ Wayne is “acting like he’s street, but (hes) barely sidewalk.”
More props to you Nyle. You have made a new fan out of me for your work as a true musician of the lost art called Rap. If you don’t agree with my opinion, listen to it below:
Let The Beat Build – Lil Wayne
If you still don’t agree with me, that’s ok. Everyone has different tastes and ear drums. But I’m just waiting for this whole “auto-tuned” rap fad to die out and rhythmic poetry to come back.
