Yep, you read that headline right. Here’s a 10-minute video of a student explaning to his class why the physics in My little Pony is totally wrong.
Yes, it has happened. “Physical Impossibilities in My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.” For our project, we had to find three scenes from any movie or TV show and use physics to find out if something was or wasn’t possible. I got 100% on it.

[GaS] reader Dan Bull just sent me this pretty cool version of Data’s Ode to Spot (Star Trek:TNG season 6, episode 5) he recently made, with no autotuning involved!
Thanks Dan!
Yep geeks, Modern Warfare is back. The epic sequel to the multiple Game of the Year award winner Call of Duty: MW2 returns on November 8th, 2011. For the hardcore fans who want to order MW3 right now, the game is already available for pre-order on Amazon.com right here.
We’ve posted many 8-bit-style music videos on [GAS] in the past, but so far, I think this one from South Africa-based band Goldfish wins our “most awesome” award. Check it out:
We Come Together: Written and performed by Dominic Peters, David Poole and Sakhile Moleshe from South Africa-based band Goldfish.

Today’s Star Wars remake is an attempt to film the entire movie using Lego. Unfortunately it appears the artist only made it as far as the Cantina scene, after which only part of each scene have been completed and, as the site’s last update was in 2008, it doesn’t look hopeful that the project will come to fruition.
Still, the project does deserve added geek credit for placing the contact page link under an animated GIF of R2-D2 displaying Leia’s message for Obi-Wan.
