10 Celebrity Lookalike Faceswaps

Ben Worcester — Tue, 21 May 2013 19:31:59 +0000

Ever think that one celebrity looks just like that other celebrity? We see it all the time and so does the rest of the internet. There's no shortage of sites out there that are dedicated to celebrity lookalikes. But we decided to take it a step further to see just how much certain celebrities look like one another. That can only mean one thing -- celebrity face swapping!

George Takei as Every Character in 'Star Trek Into Darkness'

Kristy Puchko — Mon, 20 May 2013 16:45:00 +0000

This past weekend J.J. Abrams unleashed the second entry in his rebooted 'Star Trek' franchise, 'Star Trek Into Darkness.' With Kirk, Spock, Uhura and company back in theaters, we've been giddily revisiting all things Enterprise, and we realized there is one thing this reboot demands more of: George Takei. Like swashbuckling Sulu wouldn't have improved things by 100%.

Takei has emerged as a major force in social networking, political activism and general interwebs awesomeness. And we just can't get enough. Just imagine what 'Star Trek Into Darkness' would look like with Takei playing every character. We did. Oh my!

10 Celebs With Macklemore Hair

Kristy Puchko — Wed, 15 May 2013 13:35:28 +0000

Showing scads of secondhand swagger in his music video ‘Thift Shop,’ rapper Macklemore burst onto the pop culture scene in a big way this past year. The vid has scored more than 300 million views on YouTube, and has been blasted all across the country. The effects of this thrifter’s fashion sense are still being [...]

Inspirational Office Posters Featuring Your Favorite Viral Video Stars

Jackie Mancini — Tue, 14 May 2013 13:27:05 +0000

We’re grateful for YouTube; every time we turn around, there’s something new and hilarious, baffling, or sometimes even heartwarming. While viral videos come and go, it’s important to remember that there are some universal truths and bits of wisdom in those videos. Where’s the best place for wisdom? On your walls, of course. Whether you [...]

12 Mother's Day Cards From Disney Characters

Christine Gritmon — Fri, 10 May 2013 19:30:18 +0000

We hope you didn’t forget that this Sunday is Mother’s Day. If you did — here’s a friendly reminder. It’s not too late to order flowers, but if you’re strapped for cash you could always just write a heartfelt note. And maybe include one plot-related pun from a Disney movie. Here are some Mother’s Day [...]

'The Great Gatsby' Plus Cats Equals 'The Great Catsby'

Kristy Puchko — Fri, 10 May 2013 17:50:18 +0000

We know what would solve 'The Great Gatsby's' mixed reviews -- replacing the entire cast with cats! Not that we're blaming the acting, we're just saying it would be a movie of cats in tuxedos drinking at parties. Can you even imagine all the shiny objects they would get distracted by? Cat flappers? Cats driving old-timey cars???? If you're having a hard time imagining all this, we made these posters of the 'Gatsby' cast as cats to help you along.

6 Movie Video Games We Want to Play That Will Never Happen

Emily V. Gordon — Thu, 09 May 2013 22:05:46 +0000

Every big-budget action movie has the inevitable hastily thrown together video game adaptation, and for the most part, they’re terrible. (Yes, that one ‘Lord of the Rings’ movie game was pretty good, and that one Hulk game.) But a lot of movies aren’t even in the running to get their own video game adaptation, and [...]

9 Sloths Who Are Working for the Weekend

Emerald Catron — Tue, 07 May 2013 20:16:09 +0000

We love sloths. There's no question. But we can't spend all day looking at them online-- sometimes we have to take a break to order food from Seamless or run a damp sponge over our body. Worse, sometimes we actually have to leave the apartment. To combat this, we've taken sloths and given them everyday jobs, so we can imagine the people we have to talk to are sloths while we're talking to them. That's normal, right?

James Franco in Everything Is So Wrong It's Right

Kim-Thao Nguyen — Mon, 06 May 2013 17:58:25 +0000

We get it. James Franco is the ultimate self-declared Renaissance Man who is down to take Hollywood and well, the world, by storm. Well Franco, we’ll see your Harry Osborn and raise you a Bueller. Check out the roles that we’d love to see Franco take on. ‘Avatar’ ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ ‘Game of Thrones’ [...]

10 Horses Wearing Kentucky Derby Hats

Emerald Catron — Fri, 03 May 2013 19:41:31 +0000

What’s the best part of the Kentucky Derby? The hats? The horse racing? The glasses filled with cold, cold whiskey? We couldn’t decide, so we put some hats on some horses to help us figure it out. It didn’t help. We’ll make up our mind tomorrow when the race is over. She stole this hat [...]

Jake Gyllenhaal as Batman and Other Actors Almost Cast as Superheroes

ScreenCrush Staff — Thu, 02 May 2013 18:00:40 +0000

There was a time when superheroes were associated with just one actor (Christopher Reeve, for example). Of course, in the age of reboots, we’re getting pretty used to there being multiple actors as Batmen and Supermen. Since some of the sting has been taken away, we thought you could handle this list of superhero movies [...]

See the Crazed Sorority Email as Interpreted by Adorable Animals

Christine Gritmon — Fri, 26 Apr 2013 16:07:04 +0000

University of Maryland junior Rebecca Martinson's swear-riddled, histrionic email to her fellow Delta Gamma "sisters" has taken the internet by storm this week. But what if an actual cat were spewing that verbal venom? Or, say, a puppy? Wouldn't an elephant perhaps deliver the most effective punt of all?

And since Martinson just resigned from her position at Delta Gamma, we thought we'd put her words into the mouths of a bunch of adorable animals. Sigma Nu likes adorable animals. And really, isn't pleasing Sigma Nu what it's all about?

'Game of Thrones' Bad Girls Read That Crazy Sorority Girl Email

Emerald Catron — Thu, 25 Apr 2013 18:08:57 +0000

We are more than slightly enamored with Maryland sorority sister Rebecca Martinson's insane-o email that went viral last week, which led to dramatic readings performed by everyone from Michael Shannon to Barbie.

So we made these mash-ups with female characters from 'Game of Thrones,' both to put a face to this deranged email, and because Rebecca Martinson has resigned from her post at Delta Gamma, and this is how we choose to remember her -- as all the crazy chicks from one of our favorite shows.

6 Modern Horror Movies as '80s Young Adult Novels

Emily V. Gordon — Thu, 25 Apr 2013 17:26:36 +0000

In the late '80s/early '90s, how many of you were glued to books by people like Christopher Pike, R.L. Stine and A. Bates? Long before 'Twilight,' these young adult authors were churning out sordid tales of psycho teenage killers, body-switching beautiful girls and revenge fantasies that also somehow involved final exams.

The Muppets Meet 'Fast and Furious' In Your New Favorite Mash-Up

Kim-Thao Nguyen — Wed, 24 Apr 2013 19:10:56 +0000

'Fast and Furious 6' is set to hit theaters next month. To gear up for this undoubtedly earth-shattering and surely unique plot, we thought it would be appropriate to join forces with another film in the league of endless sequels, prequels and trilogies. Check out the 'Fast and the Furious' franchise -- if it starred The Muppets.

What 'Mad Men' Characters Would Look Like Today

TheFW Staff — Tue, 23 Apr 2013 16:38:22 +0000

Remember at the beginning of season two of ‘Mad Men‘ when Don went to visit the doctor for an insurance physical? The doctor told him that he “lives too hard” and then told him to take it easy. So what did Don do next? Tucked down a full, high-cholesterol breakfast like a man. There are [...]

'The Voice' Judges Get Face Swapped

Kristy Puchko — Fri, 19 Apr 2013 17:02:22 +0000

You know what would make ‘The Voice‘ better? If Cee Lo Green had Christina Aguilera’s hair. FACT. If you disagree with that statement, clearly you are not looking at ^^this^^ picture. That’s not the only face swap that would improve the show. We’ve experimented with a few different combinations and decided these are the best. [...]

If Stuff From the '90s Was Made Today

Emerald Catron — Thu, 18 Apr 2013 17:14:18 +0000

If we’re going to wax all nostalgic about things, let’s not even compare the way things used to be to the way things are now. Let’s instead lament how HORRIBLE it would be if things from the past were invented today. They would not be nearly as good. Although we absolutely would watch Lil Wayne [...]

Fake Coachella Posters We Wish Were Real

TheFW Staff — Wed, 17 Apr 2013 20:37:17 +0000

Coachella is a magnificently hip and amazing drug party music festival where people spend a weekend eyeballing each other’s outfits and dancing like fools. While that’s all good and well, we did think of a few ways to improve upon the Coachella experience. In an alternative universe where we get to do things like plan Coachella-sized [...]

'Jurassic Park' Meets 'Glee,' 'Breaking Bad' and More

Kim-Thao Nguyen — Tue, 16 Apr 2013 15:52:52 +0000

Hollywood thought that making 'Jurassic Park 3D' would improve a cinematic classic. While we can't say the 3D really added anything, it's hard to quibble with 'Jurassic Park's' status as the perfect movie. It's a proven fact that dinosaurs make everything better. Don't believe us? Check out some movies and TV shows that we thought might be a little more exciting with our favorite prehistoric predators.

Other Messages Justin Bieber Left at Historical Places

TheFW Staff — Mon, 15 Apr 2013 17:42:15 +0000

As you may have heard, Justin Bieber recently paid a visit to the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam. While there, he did what countless tourists have done before him and left a personal message in the house's guest book. Only since he's Justin Bieber, aka the most famous 19-year-old in the worl

9 'Honest' Disney Movies

Christine Gritmon — Fri, 12 Apr 2013 20:12:35 +0000

Ah, Disney – an essential component of childhood. However, beneath the saccharine surfaces of these fluffy romances lies some truly disturbing content. Check out our “honest” takes on what Disney movies were really showing us in our youth. ‘Beauty and the Beast’ ‘Cars’ ‘The Lion King’ ‘The Hunchback of Notre Dame’ ’101 Dalmatians’ ‘The Princess [...]

'Mad Men' Face Swaps Cast Your Favorite Characters in a New Light

Kristy Puchko — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 18:58:06 +0000

First ‘Game of Thrones,‘ and now ‘Mad Men‘ is back on the air. Looks like the TV season is back in full swing, and just in time to keep us from enjoying the beautiful weather. We thought it might be interesting to imagine if the dynamics on ‘Mad Men’ were simply reversed. So we swapped [...]

See Ryan Gosling in Every Movie and TV Show

TheFW Staff — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 15:16:22 +0000

Just let us have our dream. A dream where we love watching television because Ryan Gosling is in every show. Where choosing something on Netflix is impossibly easy, because Ryan Gosling is in everything. A world where we actually pay money to see ‘The Big Wedding’ because The Gos plays every part. This is what [...]

8 More Movie Remakes That Could Be Coming Soon

Kristy Puchko — Wed, 10 Apr 2013 19:05:31 +0000

If Hollywood teaches us anything, it's that nothing is sacred. No matter how distinctive or beloved a movie might be, it could well be subject to a remake. Just this year we'll be seeing reboots of 'Evil Dead,' 'Carrie' and 'Old Boy.' And in the works are revamps of 'RoboCop,' 'The Naked Gun' and 'Escape From New York.'

8 'Game of Thrones' Choose-Your-Own Adventure Novels

TheFW Staff — Fri, 05 Apr 2013 20:27:47 +0000

We're big fans of 'Game of Thrones' here, so much so that we can't really picture our lives before it. How did we get our fantasy fix in the days before dragons and direwolves? 'Lord of the Rings'? Bah! The only thing that used to come close to the seat-of-your-pants, moment-to-moment excitement of George R.R. Martin's fantasy series is the "Choose-Your-Own-Adventure" novels of our youth.

Here's Grumpy Cat in Every Show and Movie You Like

Christine Gritmon — Thu, 04 Apr 2013 19:02:43 +0000

Happy birthday, Grumpy Cat! Can you believe that Tardar Sauce, the internet's least excited feline is only a year old? We figured she was like 115 in cat years.

With Grumpy Cat taking over our computer sc

Which Danny Boyle Character Are You?

Kristy Puchko — Tue, 02 Apr 2013 17:50:42 +0000

From reckless junkies, to hopelessly romantic slumdogs, a man forced to face the zombie apocalypse and a man forced to hack off his own arm to survive an excursion gone terrifyingly wrong, director Danny Boyle has offered us plenty of portraits of unlikely protagonists. Not only has he taken us into the characters' vibrant and often brutal worlds, but he has also shown us how these desperate people are not so unlike ourselves.

Movie Posters That Almost Happened – 'Terminator,' The Dark Knight' + More

TheFW Staff — Fri, 29 Mar 2013 20:54:12 +0000

We love to think about things that could have been — what if we’d gotten along better with our advisor in college? What if somebody had bought Hitler’s paintings? What if Matt Damon had been cast as Harvey Dent? We don’t know about the first two, but at least thanks to Photoshop we can imagine [...]

10 'Game of Thrones' Ben & Jerry's Flavors We Would Totally Eat
