All tag results for 'universe'

Yes!!!

But since a television budget can't possibly live up to the standards set by the blockbuster movie, don't expect any of the actual Avengers to be major characters.

No!!!

Still, what we're hearing sounds pretty cool. Marvel is in talks with ABC to produce a live-action drama series set in the same universe as The Avengers. Instead of focusing on the heroes though, the series may instead end up being something entirely different — like a high-concept cop show.

It's all speculation for now, but the comic book company has

Well welly well, Coldplay!

Masterminding a creative concept project over many years that combines music, art, and storytelling???

THAT IS AWESOME GALACTIC SPACE SAUCE!!!

It seems that Coldplay's latest studio album Mylo Xyloto isn't just a spectacular record, it's also a musical companion to a whole comic book universe, whose main character is called Mylo Xyloto!

Famed director/writer Mark Osbourne co-created the comic and its menagerie of characters with Coldplay, and is now FINALLY allowed to talk about this epic construction!

Osbourne reveals:

"[The comic series] is the story of Mylo Xyloto, a young Silencer on the front lines of a war against sound and color in the world of Silencia. Mylo discovers that the enemy he's been trained to hate his whole life might not be the enemy after all. Like many Silencers, he was raised in an orphanage and conditioned to be a Silencer from a very young age. Legions of Silencers were created after the Great War of Colors took many lives, including the lives of Mylo's parents Aiko and Lela. That war threatened the safety of the citizens and strict measures were put in place to ensure it would never happen again. At the start of our story, Mylo is not so sure that all the propaganda and strict measures are legitimate, but he keeps these concerns close to his vest since they are just vague feelings that even his best friend Rex can't quite support."

HOLY STELLAR SHIZ BALLZ! We want it and we want it now!!!

But, apparently there are only six issues being released monthly starting February 2013, and the amount will be limited!!

Booo!

However, if you are heading over to Comic-Con this Friday, members of the Mylo Xyloto creative team will be there to divulge MORE cray cray details at 1pm!

Huzzah!

Are you guys prepared for what will amount to the biggest and most important physics announcement in history?

Well, hold on to your butts: on Wednesday, Cern is probably going to announce that they've found the "God Particle" aka The Higgs Boson… with 99.99% certainty.

This is what gives atoms their mass.

In other words, it's regarded as the key to understanding the universe.

HUGE NEWS, guys. We'll let you know what's announced exactly come Wednesday!

We mean, why else would they be inviting the 5 leading theoretical physicists??

SCIENCE! SCIENCE! SCIENCE!

It's a little silly to think that everything has happened in the Universe up until now just so we never get better than what we are today.

So, can we upgrade? Will our kids already be upgraded?

Absolutely.

There were once different species of humans, and "upgrades" have happened. What makes us think we're the final upgrade??

Besides, there was only a .004% difference genetically between us and Neanderthals…

Check out this super fascinating TEDTalk (above) about where we're going as a species, and how we're moving quickly towards another 'upgrade!'

We hope we're ready for the moral implication discussions soon… and we can remain civil about it!

Mickey Mouse has transcended international fame — he's now a UNIVERSAL superstar!

A collection of craters have been discovered on Mercury that overlap to form a GIANT picture of Disney's most recognizable cartoon character.

The image was taken by NASA's Messenger probe, which will be orbiting the planet until March 2013 as it continues to collect images from the surface of the planet when the sun is near the horizon.

The man on the moon mouse on Mercury has a head that measures roughly 65 miles in diameter with two smaller, but disproportionate ears.

Very cool, don't U think?

If we can't believe the results in informercials… what can we believe??

Our whole universe is shattered: the BowFlex guy says he didn't get his abs using the machine!

Noooooooooo!! Ha!

Apparently, TJ Hoban got his bounce-a-quarter-off-them abs nearly entirely by eating well, not the machine he's selling.

Boo!

For someone that says it's all on the diet, he sure says the opposite in the commercial that's claiming, "no diet plan" can build muscle and burn fat like the Bowflex machine.

Lame!

Either way, he's in fab shape!
