Our friends over at our big brother network MTV (home of The Atom Show!) took some time (ok, kind of a lot of time) to remake the Prince Of Persia trailer using Legos! Check it out!

When the Unicorn Vs. Narwhal game came out, I’ll admit, I thought it was impossible to win way too hard. If you’ve had a second to play it, then you know the unicorn has a serious advantage. That laser is gnarly! I’ve played as the Narwhal a ton of times, and not once did I even get close to winning. It became sort of a thing around the office. Well today, I received an e-mail from Dave, one of our developers.

You saw the preview at San Diego Comic-Con 2009 (that’s kind of a marketing phrasing, statistically I have to admit that you possibly did not see the preview at San Diego Comic-Con 2009), and now it’s finally (almost) here. The next edition of Star Wars Gangsta Rap is almost here. Next Tuesday, November 10th, the newest video from the amazing guys at Bent TV will be live right here at Atom.com. I just caught the whole thing, and I have to tell you, that shit is amazing. Look for amazing verses from pretty much all the luminaries from the Star Wars universe.

To whet your appetite, here’s the preview you saw (or maybe didn’t) at Comic-Con.

So don’t forget, next Tuesday, November 10th!


Also, catch up with the original Star Wars Gangsta Rap and Star Wars Gangsta Rap: Special Edition.

Oh you people, with your intensely graphic, violent, animations about cartoon characters murdering dictators… Why is it that the weirdest clips we get are all animated?

As best as I can tell, this is what is “supposed” to be the narrative of this video: Osama, Adolf, and Leatherface are having a sleepover, and they’re up past their bed time playing video games and shit get’s crazy. And then Mario shoots everyone.

Someone once told me that there’s something special about being effortlessly weird. While there’s definitely something self conscious about this clip, it somehow manages to overcome that aspect of itself to become something I’d call “truly out there”. Is this parody? Is there a message? Perhaps meangreen3 is the product of the same violent media he preaches against? And still, the circle continues.

Sometimes you can protect the world with traditional methods (guns, fighter planes, sanctions) and sometimes you need to go with a giant robot piloted by teenagers. Meet Megabot, Atom’s brand new parody of teenage, robotic vigilantism (with Fran Kraz, from Dollhouse) that’s gone on just a little too long.

Inspired by Megabot, we put together a list of some of our favorite robotic advocates for interstellar justice.

#1: Voltron
The pilots who assembled to form Voltron labored under the delusion they were worth half a shit. They insisted on attacking their demonic foes with the lion vehicles, which inevitably got swatted away with a lethargic backhand. Sure, they’d form Voltron to cleave their opponent just nanoseconds later, but that was coasting on technology to do the heavy lifting.

Worse, I am beginning to think part of Voltron’s core mission was ethnic cleansing. Outfits aside, his pilots showed about as much diversity as a Klan rally.

“We must rid the universe of evil King Zarkon! And Blacks!”

We get all kinds of stuff submitted here at atom.com. I get it, and by now, I should start getting used to it. But sometimes, even when you guys are nice enough to label something as a “surreal animation,” my capacity to still be freaked the fuck out is still pushed to the limit.

Case in point, this submission from our friend animalmother16:

Machines. Charming.

Ok, seriously, what the hell is this? And why is it freaking me out so much? (And listen, I’m no wuss, I went to Goth Night last night). Does this have some other kind of meaning, or did someone just get David Lynch an Etch-a-Sketch?

Someone explain this to me, I’m going to just be crying here at my keyboard.

Watch co-stars Rainn Wilson (The Office) and Will Arnett (the dude who knocked up Amy Poehler) pitch their new animated flick Monsters vs. Aliens. Still not convinced? This clip is an online exclusive! OMG!!!
