Random "Cracked" article of the day - robkelk - 03-31-2011
We've got threads for YouTube videos and fanfic recommendations - why not one for Cracked articles?
Here are two to start off the thread:
http://www.cracked.com/blog/5-urgent-qu ... ra-remake/]5 Urgent Questions About the Live Action 'Akira' Remake
(Yes, "Why?" is the first question asked. However, it isn't one of the five urgent questions.)
http://www.cracked.com/article_18990_6- ... think.html]6 Pieces of Music That Mean The Opposite of What You Think
(I actually knew #3 before I read the article... but I read album liner notes.)

them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of
the same sovereign, servants of the same law."

them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.''

Re: Akira remake, I think George Takei summed it up best on his Twitter:
Quote:Live action of anime classic Akira will use white actors. In related news, remake of Roots to star Mel Gibson. #ShameOnWBYou just gotta love that guy.

Is there any reason to believe the Akira remake is anything but an April Fools joke?
