February 5, 2012 – The Avengers assemble in their explosive Super Bowl spot. It's an action-heavy trailer, one meant to show off the flying, punching juice of our mightiest heroes. [io9]
Aliens sink more than boats in Super Bowl Battleship trailer
February 5, 2012 – The Super Bowl trailer for the boardgame-inspired Battleship film is filled with city-busting disaster porn. Watch the spiked alien spheres take out roadways and buildings, before trapping Hawaii under an impenetrable dome — [io9]
That's pretty awesome. It would be great if they would release all the brilliant ideas children have sent them over the years.
That will have to be a different prompt for a different day.
Badass warrior crab amputates its own claw on the battlefield
February 4, 2012 – It took mountain climber Aron Ralston (and his onscreen counterpart, James Franco) 127 hours to amputate his own limb. It takes mere seconds for this crab to pull off its own claw after an unsuccessful attack on a blue-footed booby chick. Granted, the amputation doesn't leave it permanently... [io9]

And I'm curious to see what happens when we eventually meet the Neanderthal character.
I don't hate "Escape from Terra"! I find it a bit single-minded, but I still read it five days a week :)
What's amazing is that it still took me a few seconds to realize what I had written. And I spend hours staring at them ahead of time.
Yes it is. Can I have text-correcting bacteria, please?
In space, no one can hear you...oh god, I'm an eight-year-old.
I bow to your superior Pony wisdom.
Haah. I've never heard that term used to describe a winged unicorn before, only the actual horn. I'm going to file that away for future use.
Not by the time of the rebellion. Some are, but there are non-clone recruits as well.
I could definitely get behind that. Anyone have a direct line to DC?
Whoops. Not sure what happened there. The fingers, they keep typing.
