Top 10 Fictional Movie Universes

Man, there are so many awesome (fictional) universes in film, it is really hard to pick a favorite. Would you go high fantasy or science fiction? Dragons or space ships? That’s like trying to pick between ice cream cake and lasagna. Can’t we just have both?

Well, this list is ten fictional movie universes that I think we can all agree are pretty awesome in their own ways.

The $68,600 Skylight Simulates Sunlight Perfectly [Video]

I don’t know about you guys, but I want one of these skylights in my basement immediately. The only problem is that at $68,600, it’s a little out of my budget. Just a little.

It looks like the sun… but it isn’t. It’s a brand new type of artificial skylight called CoeLux which, for the first time, recreates the scientific process that makes the sky appear blue. It also creates an illusion of depth to make the ‘sun’ appear to be far above.

Super Power Beat Down: Batman vs Darth Vader (Alternate Ending) [Video]

Late last year, Bat in the Sun released a video featuring a fight between Batman and Darth Vader, and unsurprisingly, Darth Vader won the duel. Now, they’ve release a new version with a somewhat different storyline and an alternate ending.

“I’ll take my science over your magic any day.”

Best. Line. Ever.

The first two pictures of Melissa Benoist (Kara Danvers/Kara Zor-El) wearing her Supergirl outfit for the upcoming CBS TV series have just been released, and all I have to say is: It’s just perfect! Here’s what Colleen Atwood, the designer of the costume, had to say about what she had in mind when she created the outfit:

“I wanted to embrace the past, but more importantly, thrust her into the street-style action hero of today.”

Top Ten Games You Must Play Twice

Some games you play and when you are done with them, you are done with them. And some games you play and layers of story reveal themselves over time and you realize that you NEED to play the game another time to properly process everything you just saw and did.

Here are the top ten games you need to play more than once to truly appreciate. Heck, a few of these you may even need to play more than twice (and that’s really saying something).

Impressions From the Nintendo Indie Showcase at GDC-2015

Nintendo and indie are not two words you hear next to each other too often, so that alone should compel you to check this out. It shows us a very different side of Nintendo than we are used to (more raw, unpolished, ground level) and at the same time, shows us Nintendo is willing to evolve with the times.

Smart for Nintendo to shift some of its focus to indie games and indie game makers. They are the next great generation of creators, after all.
