Just Another Reason To Love Cosplay & Adrianne Curry

This past weekend was the annual shit show that is the San Diego Comic Con, which is a true nerd mecca. Even the celebs get in on the fun, because some of them are geeks at heart to. Case in Point: Adrianne Curry. The very sexy former reality star has long been known for her extreme cosplay costumes over the years. She loves to get all dressed up in some sexy character outfits and is frequently the highlight of any con she attends. Well, this year one of her costumes was so accurate it got her escorted off the floor because it was "Too Sexy"!!! Apparently, the powers that be of at SDCC were not happy with Curry's choice to go as Aeon Flux... aka the girl cartoon character that wears a leather bandana over her vagina. Holy god did Curry get this one right. She is so hot. After being asked to leave, she returned the next day as a sexy Imperial Officer. This lady is the best. Check out my boys over at The Superficial who wrote a funny post about the whole incident and a bunch of more photos after the jump. God bless you Adrianne. You are the best.

Not happy about leaving






Sam The Eagle Is Captain America


Last month the people behind the upcoming Muppets movie parlayed the upcoming mega movie Green Lantern into a cool poster featuring Kermit as the Emerald Knight. Now they are at it again, this time thrusting everyone's favorite patriotic eagle Sam into the Super Muppet program as Captain America. This is wonderful. The new Muppet movie opens on November 23rd here in the US. I for one can't wait! Thanks to Den of Geek for the tip on this one.

The Crippled Masters Is The Sickest Kung Fu Movie You Never Heard Of


Holy. Fucking. Shit. I don't often use prose like that to describe just any movie, but when my main man Lockheed sent me this trailer for the 1979 film 'The Crippled Master' yesterday it was all I could muster up. The trailer shows our two heroes battling the injustice they face because of their severely debilitating injuries. It was downright sickening at times to watch this clip, but awesome nonetheless. That's why it's up here on CCD baby! My man Lock says this is a movie in desperate need of a remake. What do you think? Watch the trailer after the jump and if you don't throw up your breakfast tell us if you think this would make a good movie in the comment section below.

Freddy Krueger In Mortal Kombat...No Like For Real!

Lot's of big new coming in from SDCC and while this isn't as big a reveal as The Avengers trailer, I think it's pretty damn great.


Warner Brothers Interactive announced that Freddy Krueger will be a playable character available as DLC in the latest Mortal Kombat game.





Pretty cool stuff. A couple of criticisms; it does unfortunately seem that this is not the REAL Freddy, meaning the classic Robert Englund. Rather it's the Jackie Earle Haley version from the recent useless reboot. Guess they still have their hopes set on a sequel and want to keep perpetuating the new product. Also I don't really like the two-handed glove thing. I guess it gives him more weapons but, it's just not how Freddy looks. It's too symmetrical.  It was probably just too much trouble to program him having extra reach on just one hand. That said, I still dig it.

The latest Mortal Kombat game is excellent, and this is another reason to pick it up, or keep playing. I generally don't get much DLC, but this one I will be picking up.

Freddy's inclusion in this game explains Warner Bros. recent request that Freddy and Jason both be removed from the fan made, horror icon fighting game Terrordrome. Their removal caused the whole project to be put on hold permanently. Damn C&D's!!!! Their request sparked rumors that perhaps WB themselves had a game in the works. This seems to be the result.

Can Jason be far behind...

So Let Me Get This Straight...

What a difference some crack/heroin makes, no?

... there were people who were shocked over Amy Winehouse overdosing on drugs and killing herself? Why were they shocked exactly? This is the singer who only had one album here in the U.S. (Back to Black), the album that won 5 GRAMMY's.... and no one noticed just how bad Amy was looking after years of prolonged drug use? GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE!!!! Take one look at the pictures after the jump, and you won't be puzzled at how Amy died... you will be more puzzled about how she stayed alive so fucking long to begin with!!! She had a great voice, but is in no way a legend and this is not a tragedy. This is another case of a celeb that has all the money and opportunity in the world to seek out help choosing to kill herself. Nothing more to it. In my opinion, she accomplished what she wanted to. She partied until she died. Like C said in 'A Bronx Tale' "There is nothing worse in life then wasted talent". Peace out Amy.... you shoulda went to Rehab, huh?

The Legend of Korra Looks Amazing!!!


I am sifting through the immense amount of Comic Con related news to come out of San Diego this week (there is alot to come this week, no worries), but one of the coolest things I have seen thus far has to be the first look at Nickelodeon's sequel to Avatar: The Last Airbender that is called The Legend of Korra.

***Please click Read more below for the rest of the article and clip from The Legend of Korra***


The show was announced a while back, but this is the first look at Korra in action. Not to mention it features Naga, her gigantic polar bear type dog that Korra rides (and hopefully gets in on the fighting). This one could end up being better then the story of Aang, which would be quite a feat since the original Avatar cartoon was almost perfect. This one takes place 70 years after the first show, and will featuring Korra trying to master all four elements to become the next Airbender. She will have help from Tenzin, Aang and Katara's son from the first series. I am in. How about you guys? Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

Yeah, I'm Not So Good At This Armor Making Thing...

Why am I fighting a dragon in my underwear???
This is a funny video from Dorkly featuring Arthur of the 'Ghost n Goblins' franchise haggling with his blacksmith over the armor he just purchased. I'm not sure if this dialogue was in the original game (wink wink), but it is extremely true and very funny. Kudos to Rob at Topless Robot for finding this one. Hysterical 8-bit humor.
