These Xenomorph Life Cycle Fridge Magnets Are Kind Of Amazing

This is the kind of thing you’ll either understand completely or not at all, but the moment I discovered hand-crafted xenomorph life cycle fridge magnets were a thing, I knew.

Captain America 2 Is Even Better As A Low-Budget ’80s Action Flick

2014’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier? Pretty good. Captain America: Winter Soldier, as if it had been made by legendary B-movie producers Golan and Globus as part of their cheese-tastic Cannon Films line? GLORIOUS. You know, if Marvel skipped Civil War and just made this, I’d be totally fine.

Seriously, it involved a puppetry duel and the corpse of Harry S Truman. Over at Badass Digest, Devin Faraci has a synopsis of the latter…
