Spurious Awards Of The Week
Pokemon fight back, a Red Dwarf apology, reduced Raiders, Grumpy old Iron Man and whole load more stuff and nonsense
Okay it’s more like Spurious Awards Of The Fortnight, but there was some stuff from last week that was too good to waste…
Irresistible Combination Of The Week
Star Wars + cute kitten. Purrfect.
Crap Logo Of The Week
Okay, it’s a logo, it doesn’t have to conform to laws of natural physics if it doesn’t want to, but every time we look at this it just irritates the Hell out of us.
Crap Pun We Can’t Resist Of The Week
Man sleeps like a log in Once Upon A Time .
Strange Precipitation Of The Week

Anomaly Of The Week
How come nobody at Channel 7 in the Arrow premiere mentioned the strange interdimensional space/time portal that seemed to be opening up right next to the lost ship?
Apology Of The Week

Quote Of The Week
Talking about the sequel to Blade Runner in Metro , Ridley Scott seems to have finally settled an argument that’s been raging for over 30 years… "It’s not a rumour – it’s happening. With Harrison Ford? I don’t know yet. Is he too old? Well, he was a Nexus-6 so we don’t know how long he can live [laughs]. And that’s all I’m going to say at this stage."
Remake Of The Week
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFQwAuInDnw&list=PLF562258BF7618ECC&index=1&feature=plpp_video
From the man who brought you the Death Star "trench run" using the minimalist magic of Minecraft , Paradise Decay , comes another classic scene from the original Star Wars trilogy. The virtual set took over two months to design and build, and the video itself requiring nearly a week to film and sync with the movie's actual soundtrack.
Chess Set Of The Week
Another version of that battle on Hoth. This is just stunning, but, we think, not so practical for actually playing with. Created by Brickplace Custom , discovered via Geeks Are Sexy .

Is it just us, or does this border on animal cruelty? Talking of which…
Animal Uprising Of The Week
PETA (People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animals) has launched a campaign against Pokémon Black And White 2 , stating that it promotes animal cruelty and likening the way Pokémon are treated to the treatment of abused animals. PETA has even released a spoof game on its website in which Pokémon fight back against their trainers. Vive la revolution !
Animated Gif Of The Week
Proving that the best things often do come in small packages, the whole of Raiders Of The Lost Ark (well, nearly) in teeny-tiny form.
Deleted Scene Of The Week
