Alright, four-way tie:

Zombie

True Crimes

Danzig

Last Man on Earth

This is for a 60'sish monster movie poster takeoff for a Facebook app. Think I like Last Man on Earth the best of all of 'em.

No way, man.  Danzig is tops.  Give it an emboss around the edges, angle it going off into the distance and then add some receding lines and it'll be awesome.

That's totally The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies, cheesy 70s gogo-monster shit there.

Which is, coincidently, to continue from the other thread, the ACTUAL worst movie ever made ever. It is sort of incredible how unwatchable it is.

Like the climax of the film is the army going in to a dark sewer system in the middle of the night, with the cameraman waiting outside. They soon emerge empty-handed, and it just cuts out.

A narrator comes in and theorizes of whether or not The Incredibly Strange Creature Who Stopped Living And Became A Mixed-UP Zombie had ever actually existed in the first place (it had not apparently).

Ummm... wasn't that "Monster a Go-Go", not "TISCWSLABAMUZ"?

PERHAPS

That you can recognize this makes me weep for the time you have clearly spent subjecting yourself to Monster a Go-Go  :(

Blambot is a good source, but note the license: fonts are free for nonprofit use OR indy comics, but you need a commercial license for anything else.  (So it'd work for your Facebook app as long as you don't charge for it.  Or, I suppose if the app is some sort of webcomic-y thing, you can charge for it.)

An episode of old TMNT wherein Shredder and Michelangelo switch bodies, anyone know the title?

Such an episode may be a figment.

Is it possible to transfer a firmware update to a Blu-Ray player if you only have dial-up internet and a netbook without a CD burner?

Can anyone recommend a wireless alternative to a mouse?

I've decided that when I get an HDTV I'll use my laptop's HDMi-out to turn it into a giant monitor, leave my laptop closed somewhere off to the side, and get a wireless keyboard that I can use anywhere in the apartment. That just leaves a mouse. If it comes down to it I'll use my wireless one, but I'd sooner have something that I can use without having to set it down on a flat surface.

Apparently you can set it up with a Wiimote if you've got Bluetooth on the thing.

This might be something to look into. Its a wireless trackball.

Apple just released a magic touch screen or what the fuck ever.  Media centers and the like are probably the one instance where it'd be better than a mouse.

Own one; use it for my HTPC.  Recommended.

Apparently you can set it up with a Wiimote if you've got Bluetooth on the thing.

Rather counterintuitively, Wii Remote support is piss-poor under Windows compared to Mac or Linux.  In my experience, the Windows 7 Bluetooth stack doesn't recognize the thing half the time, and the most common way of getting it to work if Windows DOES see it is through a scripting program with bizarre license terms.

It might actually work in this case with WiiuseJ since, IIRC, that will let you use the thing as a mouse right out of the box, but you won't be able to do any button reassignment or anything.

(I really want to create a program that maps buttons to keys/mouse clicks using WiiuseJ, with maybe a nice little XML config file structure, but fuck if I've been able to find that kind of time.)

Course, there's also a hardware issue there; you need a "sensor" bar (which is actually just some IR LED's, as most of you probably know) that doesn't require the Wii to be turned on in order to run.  Can be done with candles, or you can just rewire the thing to use USB.  I bought me a Sensor Bar HD and am pleased with it; I find it's less jerky than the sensor bar that comes with the Wii.  Pity it doesn't have an off switch, but it's not like diodes use a ton of juice or anything.
