X-Men: Apocalypse Cartoon Trailer

X-Men: Apocalypse Cartoon Trailer

YouTuber Philysteak tried his best to recreate X-Men: Apocalypse‘s debut trailer using scenes from the awesome X-Men animated series. Sophie Turner’s bad delivery pierces through nostalgia, but we do get to see Gambit and a high tech computer with a VHS player.

The Chopping Machine

The Chopping Machine

Newbie maker Simone Giertz is getting better at putting hardware together, but her latest invention ended up being more dangerous than her previous ones. It’s a double knife-wielding chopping machine that chops so hard it’s carving through the chopping board.

Down-and-out, Out and Down

Down-and-out, Out and Down

A kickboxer eats a right hook to the jaw and a left kick to the head. He tries to get up, but his body already threw in the towel. His fighting spirit clearly didn’t get the message, so his body sent it again.

Anti-Earthquake Beds

Anti-Earthquake Beds

A series of ridiculous, yet somehow still useful designs for beds designed to protect sleepers from falling earthquake debris, by covering them with a sturdy roof and/or sealing them inside a metal coffin of sorts. It’s better than being crushed, right?

Dryvrys: Ep.1

Dryvrys: Ep.1

Bill Burr Isn’t into Star Wars

Bill Burr Isn’t into Star Wars

Ever the contrarian, Bill Burr makes himself the mouthpiece of a minority by publicly admitting on Conan that he never understood the world’s love for Star Wars. Why? Blame Tony Montana. We love how scared Conan became as Bill kept talking.

Simpsons Gory Couch Gag

Simpsons Gory Couch Gag

(Gore) Master of blood and guts and Play-doh-mation Lee Hardcastle created his inimitable take on the classic Simpsons’ couch gag, with a creepy and disturbing take that’s sure to fill your nightmares. We can say with 100% certainty that FOX won’t be running this one.

Extending a Cruise Ship

Extending a Cruise Ship

People put additions onto their houses all the time, but we never thought you could expand a cruise ship to add more space. Check out this fascinating time-lapse clip of a cruise ship as it was cut in twain, and stretched at the Blohm+Voss Shipyards back in 2008.

Star Wars Minus Star Wars

Star Wars Minus Star Wars

YouTuber KyleKallgrenBHH made a summary of Star Wars IV: A New Hope using sounds and clips from other movies and TV shows. The resulting remix shows that Star Wars is deeply embedded into pop culture, but is itself a jumbled recollection of its predecessors.

Burning Lightsaber

Burning Lightsaber

After creating a magnetic version of Thor’s hammer, YouTuber Sufficiently Advanced made his own energy weapon. His take on the lightsaber uses a steady stream of methanol and acetone to create a fiery blade. In other words, it’s a blowtorch with a lightsaber hilt.

A Bad Brains Charlie Brown Christmas

A Bad Brains Charlie Brown Christmas

A Charlie Brown Christmas is a holiday tradition around here. Here’s a slightly edgier take on the Christmas classic, set to the hardcore thrash punk sounds of Bad Brains. Say, that kid at 1:14 stole our dance moves.

Say Sorry for the Holidays

Say Sorry for the Holidays

From Halloween to Christmas, people love to dress their cats up in stupid costumes. Temptations Cat Treats (with the help of Sir Elton John) issued an apology to all felines subjected to this humiliation with their latest ad spot. Still, aren’t they just so precious?!?!

Hot Laps in the Lexus GS F

Hot Laps in the Lexus GS F

We were very fortunate to get the opportunity to drive the awesome new 467 hp Lexus GS F sport sedan, but our ride-along with racing expert Scott Pruett was the real highlight of our visit to California’s Chuckwalla Raceway, an off-the-beaten-path track that’s worth a visit.

EL PASEO

EL PASEO

(PG-13, Flashing lights) Filmmaker and editor Owa Barua compiled this mostly black and white montage of some of the trippiest moments ever created for the big screen. There’s one glaring omission though – the entirety of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

Sold Out: Supreme’s Reselling Scene

Sold Out: Supreme’s Reselling Scene

(PG-13: Language) “It’s worth whatever a fool is willing to pay for it.” Supreme addicts make Apple fans look reasonable. The brand’s style and limited releases mean resellers get away with up to 1200% markups. Complex takes a look at this underground economy.

Star Citizen: Procedural Planets

Star Citizen: Procedural Planets

Awe-inspiring footage from the upcoming space epic Star Citizen, showing off real-time footage of its incredibly robust procedurally-generated planets, which can be viewed from up close or afar, with astounding realism. Guess it’s time to upgrade our graphics cards.
