Friday Links: Showoff Edition

in Blog, Friday Links by LAS on February 4th, 2011No Comments

Friday Links: Showoff EditionFan badly upstages the mascot during the halftime dunk competition. If I were the team manager, I would have hired this guy on the spot for being such a ridiculous badass.

Keep reading for the lowest possible Super Mario score, Francis Ford Coppola on the future of art, and a (for once) robust videogame section. read more

Friday Links: Action Jesus Edition

in Blog, Friday Links by LAS on January 28th, 2011No Comments

Friday Links: Action Jesus EditionThis is the greatest action scene of all time. It has it all. Not only are all the components there, but the Indian dubbed over in Russian is the icing on the cake. Someone show the Wachowski brothers. This is how it’s really done.

Keep reading for rib cage mortar shells, night surfing and the snake shaker. read more

Friday Links: Triple Threat Edition

in Blog, Friday Links by LAS on January 21st, 2011No Comments

Friday Links: Triple Threat EditionAfter a few weeks away to save Australia from the ravages of apocalyptic flooding (except for Brisbane, screw those tools), it’s time for a triple dose of Friday Links.

How are croissants made, really? Well … they basically grind up those Keebler elves and suck out the delicious marrow which is where the flavor comes from.

Keep reading for zombie headshots, the bandsaw magician, the internet movie firearms database and much more. read more

Friday Links: Clay Pigeon Edition

in Blog, Friday Links by LAS on December 31st, 2010No Comments

Friday Links: Clay Pigeon EditionHow hard is it to hit a clay pigeon with a golf ball? Pretty damn hard, it would appear. Although I am just assuming that there were tons of shots that weren’t shown on the video, otherwise I guess it takes like 10 shots and is pretty easy.

Keep reading for 50 Cent snow clearing business, endless pool jumping, and rent a white guy. I thought you could only rent minorities. Hey, who knew? read more

Friday Links: Fast Five Edition

in Blog, Friday Links by LAS on December 24th, 2010No Comments

Friday Links: Fast Five EditionWhat time is it? Fast Five time, baby. I’m going to ignore that all the other films in the series happened and just think of this as the successor to Tokyo Drift, the greatest film of all time. This is the kitchen sink approach, but whatever, I’m cool with it.

Keep reading for indoor skydiving, MMA ninja kicks and the luck list 2010. Also on a logistics note, I’m going to Australia for the next few weeks, so Friday Links will be MIA until mid-January. Hopefully it won’t be KIA. read more

Friday Links: Around the World Edition

in Blog by LAS on December 17th, 2010No Comments

Friday Links: Around the World EditionDaft Punk didn’t just do the soundtrack to Tron, you  know. They also did a few other songs. In fact, in their earlier years they were a Latin inspired classic rock band.

Keep reading for Spike VGA trailers, extreme shepherding and Alison Brie with not enough to do. read more

Friday Links: 15 Year Olds Edition, Dude

in Blog, Friday Links by LAS on December 10th, 2010No Comments

Friday Links: 15 Year Olds Edition, DudeMichael Buble comes off as a bit of a douche (ok, a big douche) but I have to admit, this encounter with a 15 year old at a recent show is pretty bad ass.

Keep reading for Turtles through time, The Donald’s hair struggling and the rest of Buble’s encounter with the 15 year old (NSFW!) read more

Friday Links: Jump Rope Edition

in Blog, Friday Links by LAS on December 3rd, 2010No Comments

Friday Links: Jump Rope EditionThe absurd jump rope girls in some Navy performance. They could really tighten it up a little and this is a little obscure, but some of it is badass. Jump roping is hard.

Keep reading for cocaine submarine captain (the musical), Penny Arcade Kinect and Space Battleship Yamato! YAMATOOOOOOOOOoooOOOoOoOO! read more

Friday Links: Nic Cage Edition

in Blog, Friday Links by LAS on November 26th, 2010No Comments

Friday Links: Nic Cage EditionNicholas Cage losing his shit: the montage. I didn’t even know some of these films existed – but I think this is the crowning work of Nic’s career.

Keep reading for … well, not much to be honest. There are a select few gems below but overall people are SLACKING on Thanksgiving. This year I’m clearly not thankful for the internet. Yeah, I’m looking at you. read more

Friday Links: Speedflying Edition

in Blog, Friday Links by LAS on November 19th, 2010No Comments

Friday Links: Speedflying EditionHoly crap – take a step back skydiving, bungee jumping and grizzly wrestling … step aside trout throwing, penguin surfing and road rash slip n slide … we have a new extreme sports champion: Speedflying. Jesus that looks dangerous.

Keep reading for more epic cycling videos, the Cooksource debacle, and 4Chan once again demonstrating they are the greatest community in the world. read more

    My name is Luke Stillman and Backhand of Justice is my take on all things videogame. I've been inspecting ventilation shafts, liberating princesses and dying of dysentery since my first game in 1988. Stay a while and listen.
