Here he is. Its Matt Smith, the eleventh actor to portray the iconic character. He seems like a nice enough fellow — at least in this interview. He also seems genuinely excited to have the role. How will he be as the Doctor? I guess we’ll find out soon enough. Enjoy.

In honor of the holidays, the following video will have pretty much nothing to do with the holidays whatsoever. Oh, this video is probably NSFW unless you happen to work someplace where this kind of thing is acceptable. If so, are they hiring?
Enjoy and happy holidays. Yes, I went there. That is all.

Sure, its not real but its still awesome. Made by my new favorite fake-trailer superstar, WormyT, this trailer shows what a real fan can do with talent, technology and determination. Plus, who hasn’t secretly imagined some of the casting WormyT has for his trailer. Brad Pitt as Lion-O, Hugh Jackman as Tygra and Vin Diesel as Panthro? Come on, that’s just plain cool. Enjoy.

The story I never knew as a child can now be told. It’s the Sherman and Mr. Peabody backstory. Also known as: How a dog found his boy. Enjoy.

In case you don’t know who I’m talking about, here’s some video that points out the true phenomenon that was Bettie Page — who, sadly, passed away yesterday at the age of 85. Time Magazine also has some great photos and a tribute over here, so take a look. Enjoy.

This is pretty self-explanatory. It’s also perfect if you just don’t have much time in your life to read a really long and complicated book like the bible. Enjoy.

Finally, the definitive battle between Star Trek and Star Wars is waged with the victor emerging triumphantly to take its place at the top of the galactic food chain. Or, does it? Enjoy.

Really, how can I not post this video from yesterday’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade? It’s funny and has a lot of significance, at least in the online community where I spend much of my time.
Plus, its funny to hear how not in touch people on TV really are. So, sit back and enjoy.

I don’t really have much in the way of witty banter for this particular video. I really think it speaks for itself. One thing I will say, however, is that I’m sure glad I’m not a turkey.
Also, if you happen to be a bit squeamish, you might not want to watch. Otherwise, enjoy.

After watching this trailer for J.J. Abrams upcoming relaunch of the Star Trek franchise, all I can really say is that it looks like something Michael Bay might have done. I can only hope that lurking somewhere behind all the visuals and explosions is a decent story and a faithful treatment of the characters.
I guess we’ll see in May 2009. Until then, enjoy.
