I got especially attached to these images when I first saw them on Andreas Preis’ own website DESIGNERPREIS. I was, and still am, a huge consumer of ’80s movies and Rambo, Terminator and Die Hard are some of the ones that I watch at least two times a month (yeah I am a huge movie [...]

In case you’ve been living under a rock and you somehow missed the whole Chatroulette craze, don’t worry, you didn’t miss much. From the beginning that site was associated with the kind of people you would only expect to see at the DMV. To celebrate Chatroulette being gone combined with the movie The Last Exorcism, [...]

Everyone who has been following my tweets or that has been reading my posts here on Bit Rebels knows that I love cats. We have 20 in our house, and we all love them dearly.  Each one of them has their own characteristics and antics that when you watch, melt all your stress and blues [...]

This has got to be one of the most ridiculous things I’ve ever written about, but I just couldn’t resist. I know that sometimes people do things just to get attention, but c’mon girl, did you have to do this? I knew before today that @bonniegrrl was a big time geek. After all, she is [...]

It’s an understatement that we like Lego here at Bit Rebels. As so many times before, I am getting as excited as a little kid watching this Lego build in time lapse. There is something about it that speaks to the creativity in me and so many other people. The power of the brick is [...]

It’s always interesting after we fall in love with a movie to learn which actors and actresses were originally cast but didn’t make it into the film. I just read today that O.J. Simpson was originally cast in the first Terminator movie in 1984. Whoah!! Did someone have a premonition back then or what? Who [...]

I recently got caught up in an intensely interesting animation technique called “Rastermation“. It’s like nothing else I have ever seen. The results that can be achieved with Rastermation are pure magic, and if I were a kid today, this would totally make me wanna start to animate. Even though the whole thing seems quite [...]

Are we overpopulating the Internet with findings of Star Wars items and gadgets? Well, if we are, I don’t really give a crap about it. Star Wars is one of the things that helps the world develop into the fantastic society we’re about to enter each and every day. Without Star Wars, how could we [...]

Do you like watching videos? Do you often watch YouTube videos that are in batches? It can be a drag sometimes when you need to watch them one video at a time. What if there was an application that would allow you to simply look for the videos you want to watch, drag and drop [...]

I saw Inception the other day and found that it was one of the best movies I have seen in a very long time. I enjoyed it so much that I am actually considering watching it at the cinema a second time just to get all the details right. The concept of the movie is [...]

There is no doubt that these TRON inspired sneakers by Adidas are a geek’s dream come true. However, there is a little something extra special about these particular shoes. The blue TRON glowing lights aren’t just part of some random reflective glow-in-the-dark materials. Nope, those are actually three dimensional, elastomeric, membranous, flexible electroluminescent lamps! In [...]

Zelda is one of my favorite games of all time, and I played it until I finished it back in the days of the Nintendo NES console. The excitement of this classic game is yet to be surpassed, but for now, my memories of the NES are about Zelda and Super Mario. Everything that has [...]

Little did I know that the “Worm” game has been under my nose this entire time. It’s kind of a secret hidden Easter egg that YouTube incorporated for viewers to overcome those sometimes long loading times. It’s a neat little trick that will keep you occupied well past the loading time. When you’re finally done [...]

I don’t think it has escaped anyone’s attention that Inception is, next after The Matrix, the highest grossing sci-fi movie ever released. The intricate storyline and the spectacular special effects make the movie somewhat of a milestone of combined efforts to make the über movie of the century. Everyone is trying to grasp the idea [...]

It debuted as the second most successful sci-fi genre movie of all time. Only “The Matrix” scored a higher grossing first weekend. Leonardo DiCaprio certainly knows how to pick his movies. I haven’t yet seen the movie myself, but it sure looks like a nice little brain twister. However, when looking at the movie trailer, [...]

I don’t bake much, but if I did, making these cookies would be at the top of my list! What could be better than gracing your cookie jar and your tummy with Yoda, Darth Vader, Boba Fett and a Stormtrooper? These just aren’t ordinary cookie cutters either. The stamp in each cutter is spring loaded, [...]

There is no mistaking that vampires, zombies and undeads are a hot topic of the present. Pretty much every movie that is released right now has some element of one or more of these things. It seems like we are so overly excited about the undead and the rotting of forever that we just can’t [...]

This is so funny to me. I see people tweeting about yoga all the time. I’ve tried it before, but I just don’t think it’s for me. All that twisting and turning and holding poses, nah… I’d rather just hit my bike for exercise. Maybe if I found a way to make yoga more fun, [...]

Have you noticed the stormtrooper photography trend? It seems like every day new collections of stormtroopers are being photographed and shared on flickr. Since I’m a huge Star Wars fan, I love this trend. I really enjoyed the stormtrooper set that Misty recently shared entitled “A Day in the Life of a Stormtrooper.” I thought [...]

I think I have just seen a piece of movie history being made. It’s true, and I am prepared to stand by my words. I never thought a bunch of guys running around in the woods with cardboard guns, rifles and grenades fighting each other could be so thrilling and intense. I mean, they even [...]
