DeviantART user and Tumblr-er Demiurgic has a lot of great art on her sites, but I can’t stop going back to her versions of the Mario Bros. and Link. They’re just too cute. I love the style of her work, I just wish she had some prints available.
Be sure to check out all her pieces, she’s got everything from a super cute surfing Pikachu to Ed and Shaun and the TMNT. Keep up the awesome work Becky!

I haven’t posted anything on the aggravating edits George Lucas is unleashing on us in a couple weeks with the Star Wars Blu-ray sets because it really pisses me off (see last week’s podcast), but I’ll gladly post this hilarious video featuring Chuck Norris taking out a Scout Trooper.
If they decided to add stuff like this in the movies instead of unnecessary ‘NOOOOOOOO!’ hissy fits I might actually be buying these Blu-rays.

Chalk this up as something that only I would get excited about, but while browsing Amazon last night I made a shocking discover. Ernest movies on Blu-ray! I was a huge Ernest P. Worrell fan growing up, and Ernest Scared Stupid is one of my favorite movies to watch around Halloween (see previous article), so getting in in HD for $5.99 sounds good to me.
It looks like they’ve released Ernest Goes to Camp and Ernest Goes to Jail separately for the same price, or together for around $9. No sign of Ernest Saves Christmas (review) sadly, but I think I’ll live.
These are the kind of things I get excited about. Obviously I have problems.

If you listened to the second episode of Bubble Pipe Theater, you know we were geeking out about Disney’s 2012 animated movie Wreck-it-Ralph. It’s an animated movie set in the world of multiple video games and will include some real-life video game characters, so you can imagine why we’re excited.
Over at Jim Hill Media, they’ve got some images and new details from Disney’s presentation at D23. One tidbit I was happy to read involves how the look of the film will vary depending on which game the title character is in:
” ‘Wreck-It Ralph’ will actually have a number of different art directions. As our title character moves from his original 8-bit game to a more modern shooter game, you’ll see the art direction of this movie change. Likewise when Wreck-It Ralph moves to the world of an elaborate kart racing game, you’ll see the art direction of this movie change yet again,” Moore explained.
Head over to JHM to read the rest, and let us know what video game characters you hope they include in the movie.
