You and your lizard are awesome. He looks like a little alien—I'm glad E.T. found home.

During COVID, I went a bit mad and got really into collecting Transformers action figures. I'm still not entirely sure why. One day I just bought one on a whim, and before I knew it my closet was full of unopened, mint condition toy robots.

Anyway, Christmas rolls around and I see a flyer for a local toy drive. A sudden compulsion hit me, so I loaded up my entire stash and donated the lot. Just like that, the spell was broken. Not even Soundwave was spared.

To this day, nobody in my life knows that I spent thousands of dollars on plastic crack, only to foist my addiction on some poor, unsuspecting kids. I like to imagine the War for Cybertron rages on in their hearts.

Fun fact: While shooting this scene, Peter Jackson wanted Sir Christopher Lee to scream. However, Lee corrected Jackson: "Have you any idea what kind of noise happens when somebody's snuck up on by a tree? Because I do."

The Shakespeare veteran then proceeded to give an in-depth summary of the Battle of Dunsinane.

LinkedIn reminds me of that scene in Men in Black where they discover a weird little society living inside a locker. But instead of a locker, it's a job board.

Tbh, going outside to reconnect with nature sounds like a great idea for both kids and adults. Instead of investing in office nap pods and pizza parties, companies should start building jungle gyms and bring back recess.

I doubt whatever he did could possibly be worse than wasting so much coloured ink

Their source is a reporter at Giant Bomb? GameSpot and Giant Bomb are owned by the same company.

Don't get me wrong, I don't have much faith in this remake, but citing the opinion of a guy who works for your sister company doesn't seem like proper journalism.

Um, ackshually, Tolkien makes no distinction between orcs and goblins, and Uruk-hai just means "Orc-folk" in Black Speech.

You can just plop a bed down wherever and sleep through the night in peace. Apparently this has been the case for over a decade, and all those temporary shelters I made were completely unnecessary.
