Our rule is to never make a Best of The Web story a top story, but it’s a slow news day. Olivia Munn answers your geek prayers (along with Nerf Herder frontman Parry Gripp), in Video Game Girl.
Funny or Die and Geek Tyrant gets props for reminding me of this old stinker. No big buildup necessary. This is the best fight scene ever committed to film. You thought Weng-Weng was awesome? Cut out your tongue:
We’ll keep this one short. Peter Cullen is possibly the luckiest voice actor from the 80′s right now. If there’s one person who shouldn’t have so much as an unkind thought for Michael Bay, baby, it’s Peter Cullen. That’s MR. Peter Cullen, ie, the voice of Optimus Prime.
Not only does the guy get a revived career, an awesome monologue in the biggest movie of the summer, and is possibly the greatest cross-generational badass of our toon-time…he gets to do a bit part on Letterman. Congrats Peter Cullen.

Damn, can’t two boho/earth mother/finger-snappin’/neo-soul singers exist in the same place without the universe imploding?!? Fair warning, the languange makes this clip very NSFW, so wait ’til you get home, unless you’ve got headphones.

We were already looking forward to District 9 after the trailer come out, but now the viral marketing is in full swing, and we’re beginning to think this might be one of the breakout hits of the summer. Produced by Peter Jackson and directed by Neil Blomkamp, District 9 deals with how the world reacts when a race of extraterrestrials become stranded in Johanesburg, South Africa. The video below warns the human community of alien residents escaping the borders of District 9 and being generally hostile when provoked.
