How to 1up! a Room

Check out this cool apartment Mario Bros. decor by Dennis and Judith, a couple of DIY’ers in love. The warp pipe is built from garbage cans and serves as a charging station for electronics, while the shelves feature those ? boxes, perfect for all the crap you want to hide. You can check out more pics over at Neatorama.

Just don't try and jump down it.

No controller needed!

The Breakfast of Champions!

The #1 Cereal on OA!

The #1 Cereal on OA!

We guess Kilowog’s sector of space is safer then the good ol’ 2814 (Earth, and then some!) because he’s branching out into the breakfast industry! Kilowog has created LANTERN LOOPS in honor of his beloved corps, and now you can enjoy them too!

As you can see Lantern Loops are full of the daily vitamins and minerals young Lanterns need to grow up big and strong, just like Hal Jordan! If your hungry for more green your in luck! Kilowog’s also sells Poozer Pops, Sinestro Bars, and Green Lantern cookies. (The Sinestro bars sound a little suspect.  Mint with a Lemony filling? Ewww.)

Michelle—E’ of DeviantArt created this custom box of cereal after noticing the similarity between Kilowog and Kellogg. Check out Michelle—E’s work at her DeviantArt page here.

Aliens!!! …No Not That Movie! MIB:3!

If you’ve been living under a rock then maybe you havent heard about the new Men in Black movie.  This time around we get a time traveling J who is in search of a K that no longer exists (someone changed the timeline, ohhhhhh!)  Here is a preview for all of you rock dwellers.

Now on to the REAL reason for this post: has anyone else seen the new viral campaign for Men in Black: 3?!

Check out the banner above that has been spotted around Los Angeles (and around the U.S.) at bus stops and in subway stations.

When you call you hear from a young man (going by the name of Bugeyes) who tells you about his blog and how he needs help to uncover the truth about the MIB.  He seems to be monitoring a presumed alien and again asks for help getting more information.  It looks like you can also be part of the experience and leave a message about any alien activity in your area.

People of LA, get on those phones!!!

Oh, and another cool bit about this is if you look up the Chinese place the graffiti is tagged on wusdiamondgarden you’ll be taken to a sketchy looking Chinese food website, complete with a scary looking dishes like these here:

I'll have a number two, hold the tentacles!

Wanna order some takeout?  That Fish Man Platter looks good, and only $9.95!  Call Wu’s Diamond Garden at 877.300.0040 to order, and remember that Wu’s is not responsible if food attacks or dismembers you.

This is a great bit of viral marketing, and reminds us of the Iron Man 2 site where you could apply to join Stark Industries.  BTW, did anyone ever get hired? Let us know!

Fly like its Quidditch..

For all of you wizards and witches out there, dont forget to grab your Nimbus and head on down to the Quidditch World Cup this weekend!  As a fan myself I love this grassroots-turned actual sport event.  Harry Potter fans gather to battle for the cup, and have alot of fun along the way.  The weekend event includes lots of cosplaying, great food and music, and lots of oppritunities to load up on Harry Potter stuff!

This years world cup will take place at Randall’s Island in New York.

Tickets are on sale now, if your in New York head down there!  Send us pictures!!
