'I'd Buy That...As a Tee!' Vol 18 by Jeff Bond

Always on the look out for inspiring art... emblazoned across the chest of humanity. Here's some of the t-shirts I have my eye on to do just the trick but, there's only one problem....they aren't for sale yet! Please click the links below to the Threadless.com (my favoritest and most user friendly t-shirt contribution site) voting pages for each and give these beauties '5' ratings so I can throw 'em on my charge card one day.


First up this week, we have a handful of Super Mario Bros. designs that'll make your flower fiery....
'Mushroom Guillotine' shows what happens to Toad if Super Mario doesn't make it to, yet, another castle to save him in time. I love this design! 

***Please click READ MORE' below fro more Threadless Tees!***

....and 'Classico' has Super Mario in an iconic 30's stylized cartoon imagery.

...Lastly....'Yoshi vs. Kong' pits two of the video game's mainstays against each other in a realistic battle to the death!

'Support Zombie Awareness' with this clever tee. Never forget!

'Saw You Wanna Go To Texas' Minimalistic horror/travel propaganda? Watch your fingers!

'The Magic of Man' is an epic homage to Rene Magritte's famous painting 'The Son of Man'...only with much more Harry.

'Asian Nightmare' is pretty scary to me! Suit up and grab your sword!

Must....get....that.....'Damned Dirty Ape'...clean!

In 'Friday', it seems Internet sensation Rebbecah Black has a fan in horror ingenue, Jason Voorhees.

'Murderer Bear' Why? WHY NOT?! Sleep tight with teddy!

'Walk into Mordor'? I'm not sure who's sponsoring this walk each year but, It seems at least it's volunteers get a great souvenir t-shirt for their support.

Oh, bother. I love me some Disney...and Pooh and Piglet specifically. Here's a tee that pits the duo against the ever-elusive Heffalump .....'In Search of the Elusive Heffalump'.

Alas poor T-800, I knew you well! As Ahhnold decides whether to return to the Terminator franchise. You can decide whether or not to give a high vote to this Shakespearean 'Terminator' homage with 'To Be Or Not To Be'

Iron Man has got to die sometime and, in 'The Silly Death of Iron Man', we get to see probably the worst way he could go about doing so.

A fun chibi version of Freddie Mercury goes for a ride on his favorite piece of transportation in 'I Want to Ride My Bike'

'CTRL..Sprite Diatroid 001' puts one of the 8-bit baddies from the Nintendo Classic 'Metroid' right upon your shoulder.

'Captain Mexico' has our neighbors to the south trying to cash in on the recent reemergence of the Super Hero movie culture. This Cap comes complete with stereotypical 'stache and sombrero shield. Ole!

'Stormpunisher' is a mash-up of galactic proportions. I part vigilante superhero, 1 part imperial soldier. All parts...awesome!

By far, MY favorite Threadless submissions this week are all inspired by my favorite toys. Lego! Vote now and you can soon be a Lego Pirate with 'Blockman Redbeard Torso'

...or a Lego Knight with 'Blockman Wolfpack Torso'

...or a member of medieval band of merry men with 'Blockman Woodsmen Torso'

lastly, possibly the best of the 4 is a Lego Firefighter .....'Blockman Fireman Torso'

'til next time wearer's of shirts!

Trick or Treat by Brandon Ragnar

This one is for you Jeff Bond. An excellent rendition of Sam and his werewolf Red Riding Hood pal from Trick 'r Treat, my new favorite movie to watch on Halloween. Great job by Brandon Ragnar.

Epic Jedi Gang Fight

 

This is so fucking cool. Thanks to Lock for the tip. Absolutely amazing!!! This was directed by Sam Macaroni.

Land Of The Lost by Christopher Lee

This is a wonderful Land of the Lost poster from artist Christopher Lee... it has it all: Sleestaks, Pylons, and Dinosaurs... Oh MY!!! Thanks to Planet Pulp for this one.

Saved By The Bell Meets Final Destination

In the "ummmm ok" film promotion of the day, it seems some sort of official music video has been released, that mixes up the classic 80's high school comedy, and the perennial unavoidable death series.

The little poppy song is credited to one of the movies stars, Miles Fisher, who I guess is some sort of musician in addition to his day job as some sort of actor. The video features a number of actors from the latest Final Destination movie, filling the roles of Zack, Slater and the rest of the Bayside Tigers as death stalks them. Though unfortunately there is no Tony Todd as Mr. Belding.





I haven't been keeping up with the Final Destination series, though it seems to still be doing its job and doesn't look to be skimping on the budget. That's impressive for a series with the number 5 in it.

I remember when the last one came out, which was supposed to be the LAST one, The Final Destination. I believe the same day it was released, DJ AM died after he had survived that plane crash a while before. Coincidence? Perhaps, but all I know is if I was Travis Barker I'd sure as shoelaces be watching my step this Friday.

Good Morning...Nips!

This is the kind of heartwarming story we, here at CCD, love to read about and, more importantly, see photos of...lots and lots of photos! Apparently, the always delicious, Nicki Minaj, and crazy, performed live in Central Park Friday morning as part of the Summer Concert series for 'Good Morning America'. In the heat of the moment, boobs jiggled...and were released from their containers. Love me some nip slips! I hope she and her peeps aren't apologizing to the country for the next 10 years like Janet and Justin. Go get 'em Nicki!

Sean Bean Has Trouble Staying Alive

Come to think of it...YEAH. Sean Bean does die in like everything. And not just dies, but dies in the most ridiculous and violent ways possible. Like he doesn't just get shot or stabbed, he gets shot like 10 times in a row, or he gets stabbed...and then exploded!

Here's a very thorough and surprisingly kind of emotional montage(the music really makes it) of all his grisly demise's.

WARNING - as there are characters dying here, so it should go without saying there are spoilers for over 20 different films and TV series.



Amazing right?! I think my favorite one is that bit with the cows. W..T..Fing..F?

The Pop Culture Art of Blake Wheeler

Artist Blake Wheeler 'bewheel' to his DeviantArt friends has been serving up some pop-culture favorites. Something for everyone, indeed. I snatched a couple of my favorites but be sure to check his page out regularly for updates (there's been a few since I started writing this post, even!)

Even Though It May Be Carnivale In Barbados...

... did Rhianna really think nobody would snap photos of her drunk and 3/4 naked getting a simulated butt fucking from multiple guys in the middle of a parade? Holy F'n shit. The dudes over at The Superficial have over 40 photos of the drunken debauchery that Rhi Rhi participated in (click here to see the full set). You can see my favorite 5 after the jump. God bless you Rhianna... get drunk & go wild gall!!!
