As a fan of golden age mysteries, who can you not love the 1985 screwball-film adaptation of the classic board game, Clue? How can anybody forget that movie?

Don’t Let Big Business Ruin the Internet Forever!
Wikipedia is down. I repeat, Wikipedia is down.
That’s right, the geniuses at Wiki have offered us a sneak preview of what the internet might look like once big business has trampled all over it. And it doesn’t look good, folks.

FAILED PILOT REVIEW #1 – Who’s Afraid of Diana Prince?
Recently, I downloaded the much maligned and unpicked-up Wonder Woman pilot David E. Kelly made just to see it for myself. In order to appreciate all the backlash, I thought it behooved me to view the source material. Before I get to that though, let’s take a look at Wonder Woman’s very first shot at the small screen, or any screen for that matter–1967’s Who’s Afraid of Diana Prince? Continue reading
What happened to seancodyreviews.com?
This is not a blog post so much as a beacon or a probe. For anybody who knows, what’s happened to seancodyreviews.com? I was a lurker at that website and now it’s kaput with no explanation (see above.) From what my lazy googling has gleaned, the site operators have offered no explanation. How uncouth.
The X-Men Pick Favorite Colors & Shit Hits the Fan, Again
This fall, Marvel is relaunching its entire line of X-Men books. Again. This time will be different, though. For one, Uncanny X-Men, the progenitor of all things X, will be relaunching in November with a new #1. X-fans worldwide tweaked out and Tropicana’s stock shares doubled of course, because UXM was the only comic Marvel hasn’t rebooted before. Or, as some fans might say, UXM was the only comic Marvel hasn’t had to have had rebooted. Amazing Spider-Man, Captain America, The Avengers, all of Marvel’s long-running, top-tier books have restarted with shiny new #1s at some point, for some reason or another.

How to Clear Your Brain
Occasionally here at Puzzled Daily, we like to answer questions rather than pose them. Today we thought we’d share a sure-fire way to clear your brain from all clutter. Seriously, busy minds, this works.
There’s an old Chinese saying we just made up, “To think of something, think of a bird. To think of nothing, think of a bird and cough syrup–at the same moment.”
When you try to think of two incompatible things at the same time, there is a kind of middle ground of nothingness that can really clear your head. Sure, if you get creative enough you can come with a reason why there’s a bird flying around with a bottle of cough syrup in its beak, but don’t. How easy is that! Here, let’s do an exercise.
Top 5 Craziest Agatha Christie Endings
The post below got me thinking about the best Agatha Christie endings. I don’t want to spoil anything for anybody. This isn’t a list for fans–so much as a list for people thinking of picking up an Agatha Christie book, or a good mystery in general. The following five books have endings that, as long as you’re not spoiled, will shock you.
The Sound of Toilets
Ever since it’s original theatrical release there have been rumors of a deleted scene that would’ve changed the entire tone of ‘The Sound of Music.’ Apparently, the debate whether to include this scene was so heated studio execs went behind Julie Andrews’ back and called in Miss Piggy to test for the role. Thankfully, Miss Piggy took too many Quaaludes that morning so Andrews got to keep her star-turning role.
Fantastic 4 Porn!
And they say Greg Land traces from porn. Well, they say that because he does. But what about Neil Edwards, penciler for Fantastic Four #581? This issue, part of Jonathan Hickman’s well-received run on the World’s Greatest Magazine, features the above opening page. It’s Franklin Richards, from the future, falling a la Alice down a hole (or shaft, depending on how your mind works) of time. But he kind of looks like a porno star lowering himself onto a top star, or like an upside down porn star being porned by a top star.
Shake Weight, Now For Connoisseurs of Gay Porn!
Really? For real, this is a thing? Especially in light of the recent South Park episode “Crème Fraiche?” The only way this makes sense is if this commercial is meant to be over the top. The makers of Shake Weight must have felt which way the wind was blowing and are now repositioning the Shake Weight as the hottest gag gift for the 2010 holiday season. Only that makes sense, once you see the following commercial.
Pay special attention to the “Aw, yeahs!” of the “actor.”

Personal Objective While watching You Do What For A Living? on TV, I saw some real faggy dude being profiled whose only task was to push a single button every once in a while. Well, poop me a motherloving sailboat, that blew me away. I’ve been up all night researching this on my Ma’s computer, and writing this letter to send to every company and institution I think may have one of these positions available. Somewhere deep in the bowels of universities, hospitals, government buildings, any places of business with deep bowels really, there may be a stool for me near a small break room with free coffee and back issues of Maxim. Do you have bowels like these?
