			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Let's be honest - Hollywood is so fucking desperate nowadays that they'll turn anything into a movie. They love cherry picking from video games and comics because an established brand means less marketing (or, at least, easier marketing).</p>
<p>We can all agree that there are plenty of video games that would make awesome movies. But I think it's safe to say that some video games should never EVER let the lens tell their tale, including:</p>
<p><strong>9. Dr. Mario.</strong> At first, I was going to give this slot to Circus Charlie, one of the few scrolling games that would have appeared on this list. But then I remembered my Dr. Mario addiction that I suffered from earlier in this decade - I was so hooked on playing this game that I had to literally go cold turkey. I haven't played a single second of Dr. Mario since that time. The addictive properties of this game may compel some hapless producer out there to try and develop a movie, but I guarantee you that it would be pure crap, through and through.</p>
<p><strong>8. Anticipation.</strong> This has got to be the least popular game on this list, which means that many of you have probably never played it. Good for you. This game was the torture of my NES-playing childhood. It's like a game show or board game adapted to the Nintendo Entertainment System... and it blows. While most of the other games on this list are at least fun to play, this one is painful. Basically, the movie potential for Anticipation is non-existent and the game play is awful.</p>
<p><strong>7. Arkanoid.</strong> I must confess that, on some my more bizarre days, I've attempted to conjure up a coherent narrative around Arkanoid's premise: controlling the last vestige of the mothership Arkanoid, you are the spaceship know as Vaus, which hits a silver sphere around until things break apart (namely, your enemy named Doh). While I love the insane premise that Arkanoid is more than a glorified Pong paddle slapping a little ball back and forth, I would never allow my love of Arkanoid delude me into thinking that it would make for a great film. I suggest that Hollywood movie producers follow my lead and let this concept stay relegated to video games.</p>
<p><strong>6. Marble Madness.</strong> I know that this was generally accepted as a good game back in the day, but I always hated it as a kid. And now it's one of the few classic popular video games that I haven't played as an adult. While I'm sure that (at some point in the late 1980s) it crossed the minds of a few film producers, Marble Madness has never been developed into a feature film. I think that was for the best, don't you?</p>
<p><strong>5. Bejeweled.</strong> Like Solitaire, Bejeweled is a PC gaming phenomena. At one point in my life, I even thought that it was a fun game. I may have been wrong about the quality of its game play, but I know that I'm right about Bejeweled's blockbuster film potential - it doesn't exist... at all.</p>
<p><strong>4. Duck Hunt.</strong> It's classic, I'll give it that. And maybe this Nintendo game, that came famously bundled with Super Mario Bros., would be perfect for a digital short ala Saturday Night Live. I'll give it that as well. But anything beyond that would completely suck.</p>
<p><strong>3. Solitaire.</strong> Arguably the most popular video game in the world (because it comes pre-installed on nearly every single version of the Windows operating system), Solitaire is nothing more than a PC representation of the classic (and boring) card game of the same name. If somebody told me that Solitaire had been optioned and Zak Penn was attached to write the script, I wouldn't be surprised. With that said, I'm a dude with an open mind... but this game would make for a totally shit movie.</p>
<p><strong>2. Pong.</strong> It's the original. But just because Pong launched a gaming revolution, that doesn't mean it should attempt to launch a film revolution as well. The game consists of two paddles, either player or computer controlled, slapping a ball back and forth. It's simple. And it's great just the way it is. No movie adaptations, please.</p>
<p><strong>1. Tetris.</strong> I'm sure that someone out there has attempted to make Tetris into a narrative film. I bet there are even spec scripts laying around somewhere in a Hollywood studio basement. And, not to be too harsh, but that's exactly where those Tetris: The Movie scripts belong: buried somewhere deep below the Earth, never to emerge and influence a weak-minded film producer into following their lead.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>X-men Origins: Wolverine hits theaters today and, originally, I had planned to make this list <em>The Top 9 Common Household Items That Remind Me of Wolverine</em>. I decided against that when I realized that every entry on the list would be a variation on the table fork.</p>
<p>Therefore, in place of that comparably mundane countdown, I present to you a collection of well-known characters - both fictional and otherwise - who have that extra special something that makes them all the more memorable.</p>
<p><strong>9. Mr. Fantastic. </strong>Probably the least known entity on this list, Mr. Fantastic makes up for his lack of popularity among the masses by being, by and large, the most extendable member of this countdown. I mean, the guy can stretch EVERYTHING. And by "EVERYTHING" I mean he can also stretch his dick. And when I think of extended dicks, my thoughts naturally lead to...</p>
<p><strong>8. Kim Kardashian. </strong>Ya know, maybe Kim isn't quite "this list" material... but she is pretty damn popular right now, to the point where nine out of ten people could easily tell you that she's primarily known for having a huge ass. Speaking of being known for having a huge body part, let's talk about...</p>
<p><strong>7. The Coneheads.</strong> Their enlarged and elongated craniums are far more iconic than you would expect. Amazingly, this ancient Saturday Night Live sketch managed to return in the mid-90s as a corny spinoff film. Their longevity might be even better than...</p>
<p><strong>6. ZZ Top.</strong> The super stretched beards of ZZ Top are both "extra" and "extended," making them natural choices for this list. That's a double whammy right there, folks. They might even have the most famous extended body parts in rock, if not for Tommy Lee and...</p>
<p><strong>5. Gene Simmons.</strong> While the awesomeness of KISS as a whole is somewhat up for debate, it's pretty safe to say that the length of Gene Simmons' tongue is universally accepted as "really fucking long." And although this makes for a rather weak transition into our next candidate, Gene is a HUGE fan of Marvel Comics, publisher of...</p>
<p><strong>4. Wolverine.</strong> Of course, you knew he was going to be on this list from the start. Wolvie's extendable claws make him extremely iconic on the page and on the big screen. Plus, they make it cool to run around the house with a bunch of kitchen knives between your knuckles. Speaking of kitchens, that reminds me of...</p>
<p><strong>3. Marge Simpson.</strong> Marge's giant blue beehive hairdo is the shit. Just admit it. It turns you on. You want to caress it and feel it wrap around you with its warm embrace... I know you do. Don't lie to me or else you'll end up like...</p>
<p><strong>2. Pinocchio.</strong> This little guy might just have world's most famous nose. I mean, who's his big competition? Off the top of my head, I can't think of anyone else who can claim their fame solely for their proboscis. Still, this devious wooden puppet can't hold a candle to...</p>
<p><strong>1. The Three-Boobied Lady from Total Recall.</strong> C'mon! How can you NOT love this chick? I can sum up her elite iconic status in one short phrase that says all you need to know: she's a Martian hooker with three boobs!!!</p>
<p><strong>More: <a title="The Top 9 Biggest Superhero Movie Mistakes of the Past Ten Years" href="http://www.audioshocker.com/2009/04/24/the-top-9-biggest-superhero-movie-mistakes-of-the-past-ten-years" target="_blank">The Top 9 Biggest Superhero Movie Mistakes of the Past Ten Years</a>.<br />
</strong></p>
<p><em>Why the Top 9? Because 10 is too many and 9 is better. 3 X 3 = Awesome. Now that’s what I call math.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I must admit, I'm a bit nervous about my first post on the Audioshocker. Not that I should be (I did, after all, once upon a time, participate in <a title="AudioShocker Podcast Episode 013" href="http://www.audioshocker.com/2008/01/01/podcast-episode-013" target="_self">one of the podcasts</a>), but I am concerned that I am simply neither hip enough nor up-to-date with my pop-radar either. I was initially thinking that I could orient my posts around that very out-of-touchness, but have, at least for the time being decided against that. I will keep up with the world around me, dammit! And, with that in mind, let me get to what I'm getting to for this inaugural post: Ted Nugent.</p>
<p>Though you may not be as enthralled by the phenomenon of <a title="a.k.a. The Motor City Madman" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Nugent" target="_blank">The Nuge</a> as I am, you still must admit that he's something of an anomaly. For all intents and purposes, the man should have been just another one hit wonder, with his one song "<a title="from 1977" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_Scratch_Fever" target="_blank">Cat Scratch Fever</a>," but somehow he has maintained a cultural cachet well greater than what writing a single hit song should command. He's, of course, well known for his ultra-conservative radio show, and <a title="Surviving Nugent" href="http://www.vh1.com/shows/dyn/surviving_nugent/series.jhtml" target="_blank">hosting his own reality TV series</a>, and appearing on at least <a title="Supergroup" href="http://www.vh1.com/shows/dyn/supergroup/series.jhtml" target="_blank">one other one</a>. This is, perhaps, not so different a CV as any other flash-in-the-pan success, but bear with me. I am not claiming that The Nuge is hugely famous or wildly successful, merely that he has a greater piece of the pop-cultural pie than one would expect for the scribe of a song about venereal disease.</p>
<p><span id="more-358"></span></p>
<p>As a way to fame, then, we can differentiate The Nugent Way from the standard one-hit wonder model. Which leads, of course, to trying to find all the other stars out there in other genres of music or totally other realms of pop culture. Who is the Ted Nugent of hip hop? Of comics?</p>
<p>Two examples, and then you're on your own to find the other Nuge Analogues:</p>
<p>1) Al Franken. <a title="Al Franken on Wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Franken" target="_blank">Franken</a> had, what?, like one kind-of-funny character when he was an actor on Saturday Night Live? He even got a shitty movie made with it (of course, they were making SNL movies for anyone back in the decadent mid-90s). We should all just be saying to ourselves, now and then, "Oh yeah! Al Franken. He had that one funny character!" But instead, Franken managed to re-situate himself as a political comedian and <a title="podcast of Al's show" href="http://www.learnoutloud.com/Podcast-Directory/Politics/Contemporary-Issues/The-Al-Franken-Radio-Show-Podcast/6870" target="_blank">liberal talk radio show host</a> (smackings of Nugent…), to the point where he's now <a title="Franken for Senate" href="http://www.alfranken.com/" target="_blank">running for Senator in Minnesota</a> based on that resume! (And political campaigns are the best reality TV running these days.) Therefore, Al Franken is the Ted Nugent of Liberal Political Comedy.</p>
<p>2) Jon Heder. Dude starred in <a title="Napoleon Dynamite" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napoleon_Dynamite" target="_blank">Napoleon Dynamite</a>, and suddenly, he's some kind of actor? Not that his resume of films is that impressive – it may still be too early to tell on this one, but the fact that Napoleon Dynamite is still readily referenced by the kids-these-days, it may well be the case that <a title="Jon Heder on Wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Heder" target="_blank">Heder</a> can squeeze a decades-long existence in the limelight from this one (overrated) performance. My recommendation to Jon, then? Embrace The Nugent Way. Get yourself a radio show, maybe some reality TV appearances. Be all the Nuge you can be!</p>
