Spoof Angry Birds: The Movie Trailer Could Very Well Become Real Some Day

You’ve seen this Rooster Teeth Angry Birds movie trailer by now, right? Equal parts funny, cheesy and, hrm, hammy—just like the game! Sadly for society, I feel Rovio will actually make this happen someday. [The Next Web]

Keep George Lucas Away From This Lando Calrissian Spin-Off

Gizmodo AU

Imagine if the Star Wars universe hadn’t been sidetracked by Ewoks and the second death star, but had instead focussed on the cooler characters. Like Lando Calrissian, before he got his facial skinflap sidekick in Return of the Jedi.

Oh, If Only Christopher Nolan Created This iPhone Parody

I’m surprised it took this long for someone to take the world of Inception and the stories about the iPhone 4′s reception issues and blend them together in an entertaining video smoothie. Which is exactly what the guys at the Computer Science & Engineering (CSE) Revue society at UNSW did. [Thanks Sushant!]

The Other Social Network Trailer: What About Tom?

Is it weird that I’d rather watch The Other Social Network than the Facebook movie? Actually, after watching this great fake trailer, no, it’s not weird at all.

Revenge Kills? There Are Apps For That

How is it possible that Emma Stone is even more adorable when she’s looking for creative ways to kill and… uh… dismember you? That’s a special kind of talent, I guess.

Quitting Facebook Sure Is Hard

You’d be forgiven for thinking that College Humor’s’ take on the Facebook deactivation page is the real thing at first. They’re actually pretty similar! Which is what makes it so funny and so creepy all at once.
