If you’re in San Francisco today, June 28th, if you’re are a Doctor Who geek, and you have a taste for the bizarre, then you might want to check out this event presented by Master Mondo’s BIZARRE-o-TRONIC, which you can preview in the video at the end of this post.

Taking the concepts of modern Doctor Who and mixing it with the Master Mondo "mind-blending of Cabaret, Burlesque, Circus-Vaudeville, social gaming, role-play and more", the show intends to be a riotous event for those interested in the area.

You can check out details of the event at this link, which also details some VERY important information of rules of conduct when participating in the awesomeness. In the meantime, check out a flier and the video preview below.

When we first heard back in 2010 that a new movie based on the fantastical tale The Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum titled Oz the Great and Powerful was on the way with American Beauty and Skyfall director Sam Mendes and Robert Downey Jr. possibly attached, there was certainly intrigue, but there was also a whole lot of question as to the sanity of Disney. 1939’s The Wizard of Oz is a timeless classic, beloved by millions, and despite it being a remake in its own right (see older versions here) the thought of someone even trying to do anything set in the land of Oz seemed absurd. But as I said over three years ago, Baum’s world and characters are eternally ripe for reinterpretation.

Eventually The Evil Dead and Spider-Man director Sam Raimi became attached, then stepped away from the planned World of Warcraft movie to take on Oz. Some complications arose, as is always expected. Downey Jr. was replaced by Johnny Depp for the lead, then James Franco was eventually cast to replace Depp. Obviously things settled down eventually and the movie got made, but does it recapture the same magic that the ’39 classic had, or does it swing and miss?

A new Ninja Turtles video game is on the way titled Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows, and you can see four character trailers—one for Michelangelo, one for Raphael, one for Donatello, and one for Leonardo—at the bottom of this post.

As you’ll see the game looks like your basic button-masher as your favorite mutated amphibians do battle with street thugs, the Foot Clan, and, if you look closely, what looks to be a one Mr. Shredder.

The game will be released on Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network, and Steam this summer.

If the first five issues were love letters to classic Doctor Who, then the sixth issue of Doctor Who: Prisoners of Time is a marriage proposal!

The Sixth Doctor era of Doctor Who, with Colin Baker taking up the mantle of the Time Lord, is an interesting era. It suffered from high criticism from the BBC, the beginning of a period that would inevitably lead to the cancellation of the series; and also made Baker don the costume that fashion forgot. Besides this, it’s the comic book era of Colin Baker’s personification that is of great interest – and an aspect of which that gets a great tribute in this new issue of Prisoners Of Time.

Monsters University entered theaters as a smashing success, garnering a fresh Rotten Tomatoes rating – albeit not as high as most previous Pixar entries – and even earned a cool $82 million weekend opening (up to almost $160 million at last check). But what contributed to Monsters operating in such fine fashion?

Here are 13 very lucky reasons I believe worked collectively in making Monsters University score high marks.
