May 31st 1980, I had 5 months of gestation left in the womb and one of the greatest sequels of ALL time time hit theaters.

Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, was the movie that turned the one trick pony Star Wars into Star Wars Episode 4- A New Hope, a movie that had absolutely no intention of being sequelized, into the beginning of the beautiful Holy Trinity. (more…)

The internet once again shows me that they are amazing people out there with skills with Photoshop and ideas while my skills with MS Paint makes me look like a lint licker. Cracked.com recently held a contest for users to make propaganda posters from the universe of their favorite films. From Star Wars to Lord of the Rings, people bust some sweet looking posters and I could totally see these around in their respected movie-verse. There are a quite a few to look at so check after the jump to see if one of your favorite movies is on there. (more…)

Love “Lost?” Me too. Love the Muppets? Me too. What do you get when you smoosh these great tastes together? Only the best damn Reese’s Pieces ever. (more…)

I hate the Dark Crystal. I understand that it has a cult following and like the Neverending Story has tons of child nostalgia value, but I hate the movie because even as an adult the imagery scares me. (more…)

We here at Nerbastards are always up for a little Muppet action. We’re actually big fans of the Muppet, Viral music videos that have been making their way around the net. Our favorite, is the one with Beaker (”Meep meep”) singing his version of “Dust in the Wind“. In our opinion nothing will top that. However, whenever a new video pops up we just can’t resist posting it. The newest video features Big Mean Carl performing a horrifyingly hysterical rendition of Ben E. King’s “Stand By Me”.

“Hi, I’m a bunny!” Bwhahahaha, funny stuff.

check it out.

We here at Nerbastards are always up for a little Muppet action. So how could we resist the urge to post a video of Beaker trying to perform ‘Dust In The Wind’ by Kansas? And the keyword here is trying…poor Beaker is so distracted by pop-up bullying, and I guess it doesn’t help that he gets a little…well, hot. Anyways, check out the clip. Personally I don’t think it was long enough (I really would have liked to hear Beaker just a few seconds longer) but it’s still long enough to get a laugh. Meep Meep!!!!!!!!!

Those gosh-darn Muppets — they’re at it again! The Muppets recently churned out awesomeness like their version of “Bohemian Rhapsody,” and now they’re taking on the Christmas classic, “Ringing of the Bells” (also known as “Carol of the Bells”). You’re probably most familiar with the song as being in “Home Alone” (soundtrack by the great John Williams!) or the Trans-Siberian Orchestra version being played on Christmas music stations incessantly.

The latest Muppet video shows Swedish Chef, Beaker and Animal singing the Christmas classic a capella in the snow. Of course, Animal gets ideas of his own on how to improve the performance, and everything naturally goes awry.

This was just released on YouTube late last night, so we’re among the first nerd sites to bring it to you. Enjoy! Meep meep!

Thanks to @MuppetsStudio for continuing to let the public know that the Muppet legacy is alive and kicking!

While you’re checking out the Muppets on Twitter, be sure to follow us, too, @Nerdbastards!

Jason Segel is the man.  He plays with puppets in his spare time, writes stupid songs, and even hops on stage with Maroon 5.  He’s constantly underestimated and rarely outdone.  I love this goofy bastard.  Let me tell you why.

Giving an interview to German TV, Lady Gaga is adorned in an outfit created entirely from shredded and emasculated Kermit the Frog Dolls!! I don’t think this pic is her, but this is what the criminal may look like..

She was last seen feeding drink after drink to a piano playing dog, eyewitnesses report she slipped something into one of the glasses. If any muppet should see Lady Gaga, do not attempt to detain her on your own, but call the police immediately, she is said to be brandishing a pair of scissors and a sewing kit.
