Possible Spoiler: New LOST info
Ausiello over at E! Online has a lot of content today but the only thing I care about was his information on lost :
Not a lot to go on but i09 has more detailed information from multiple sources, but one grabbed my eye in particular:
Question: Why the eff would they explain why Walt is special and not have him on the show ? Micheal I understand. I might do the same thing and refuse to work with them again, if they treated me that way too... I'll still never understand the direction they were going with the Kevin Johnson thing.. waste of time really. Kind of like Libby...which according to this article, NOW we might actually get an answer on that. They've went back and fourth on that for years. At least now there's hope. Ugh.. I love this show and I'll be sad to see it go but I'm glad they set an end date, stretching out the story was hurting it more than helping.
I hear Team Darlton will give us the answer to one of Lost’s oldest and most confounding mysteries. And I’m pretty sure it’s an answer none of us expected to get.
Not a lot to go on but i09 has more detailed information from multiple sources, but one grabbed my eye in particular:
But talking to USA Today, Lindelof hints that nothing in the show's posters is accidental. Also, the mystery of why Walt was so special, and why the Others wanted to study him, will be addressed in the final season, and will attain a new significance — even if Walt himself doesn't come back. There's still a chance that Cynthia Watros may come back as Libby, but it's up to Watros. Also, Frank Lapidus has been promoted to "series regular" this season. (Yay!) We won't have to wait until the very final episode to start getting the big answers.read the rest of the lost news

Teletubbies: Bigger Than the Beetles? Part 2
(If you haven't already.. Before you read this, read part 1.... Ok continue with the brain cell suicide..... )
MY BRAIN !! I CAN'T BELIEVE I LISTENED TO THE WHOLE CD...And I'm still here, Sort of. Here's how the songs really are, after actually listening to them:
1. Puddle Dance- There's no actual singing about puddles. It's some lame music playing while you listen to the Teletubbies jump around in puddles. It ends with an "Uh-Oh". As if to say, "Uh-Oh I bet they want their money back."
2. Ships- More lame music, it sounds like fairy music, occasionally you hear what could be a fog horn. But you only hear it twice. They should of called this Fairies and a Seldom Heard Fog Horn. It ends with something going down the drain. My sanity perhaps ?
3. Dirty Knees- The song starts with "Lala got her Knees dirty." This song is about them restating this fact 20 TIMES!!! Lala literally walks around and spreads her dirty knee disease to the other Teletubbies, the narrator keeps count and then the Teletubbies laugh about it. This could of easily been called STD's ARE FUN TO CATCH !
4. Twisty Dance- This isn't half bad. A catchy beat and not as much random laughter as usual. It's almost a real song.
5. Animals- RANDOM ANIMAL NOISES. THAT'S ALL!
6. Dipsy's Fancy Hat- This is the first track on the CD with actual singing. The lyrics are um, UNEXPLAINABLE. It's gibberish. I hear, "Havans hats off havants hats off gfss ishs vo !" I also hear voices..I like the voices better.
7. Running Away Dance- Um, I was almost right. This song has the Teletubbies breathing heavily like they are having sex with something, it's WEIRD. I swear these things are pot heads, they giggle about EVERYTHING. "Tipsy, you have diabetes." "hehehehe"
8. Tree- None of the weird Teletubbies sound bites, it's just calming music. So, I was RIGHT. The Teletubies are smoking that granddaddy purp! (I heard Twista say something like that once.)
9. Teletubbies Say "Eh-Oh"- The SECOND BEST track on this CD. It's just the Teletubbies Theme Song, but with a twist..it includes Random Farting and Sheep noises... Why ?
10. Up and Down Dance- I don't freaking know.
11. Jumping for Fun- I guess this is about what it says. It's not really a song. Just a bunch of stuff happening and the narrator telling you the Teletubbuies jumped....Out of a window? We're not that lucky...
12. Follow My Leader- This track is kind of cool. It's got a lot going on. You almost want to dance around when you hear it. I'm going to now claim this as the BEST TRACK on this Cd.
13. Clouds- I was on point with this one. I guess the teletubbies have never seen a cloud before, OR they are all just really high...again. GET A JOB DIPSY!
14. Lullaby- I was right again. But it's REALLY creepy. I wish you could hear this guy singing. It's him telling the Teletubbies to go to sleep in a calming voice but it's just scary. I'd stay up all night if this were my lullaby.
And that brings us to the end....Think I made any of this up ? AMAZON has the first few tracks available for preview. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00000DGR2/103-1780296-1343822?v=glance
That's it. I did it. For You. I hate myself now. WORST PURCHASE EVER, and I've bought Expired SPAM before. Thank God it only cost me 50cents...

Teletubbies: Bigger Than the Beetles ? Part 1
While shopping at a local thrift store I made a STUPID purchase and this is my review of said stupid purchase, Teletubbies: THE ALBUM. Such a special CD deserves a special review. So I decided I would start with the track listings and tell you what I expected each song to be about. Then, I'd tell you what it really was like after listening to the album. Are you ready? No. No your not.
Before I get started I have a few questions to the "producers" of this "album". WHY? I mean did The Teletubbies really need an album? What could they possibly sing about? Does Tinky Winky get a solo deal out of all of this? This album is for kids, the cover tells you that and just like the show after listening to the CD I still have to question the educational value of multicolored aliens running around on a planet, looking at the children in their stomachs and eating silly puddy from a farting machine. Meanwhile some poor baby burns inside the sun. This could be how children envision hell, It would be hell for me watching aliens have all the fun while I'm stuck in the sun burning alive, randomly laughing at things that aren't funny.
Let's review this puppy:
MY FIRST IMPRESSION BEFORE LISTENING
1. Puddle Dance- A song about how fun it is dancing in puddles.
2. Ships- Um, I've seen the show before and I don't remember a ship. Maybe this is a song about dancing and some idiot added an uppercase S to the track title.
3. Dirty Knees- *giggle*
4. Twisty Dance- Self explanatory.
5. Animals- Teletubbies love animals, so lets sing about them !
6. Dipsy's Fancy Hat- Dipsy does indeed have a fancy hat. I call it his magical pimp hat, because I dunno what he really calls it. I guess the song is about how cool his stupid hat is.
7. Running Away Dance- This song is a creative way to make getting away from your awful family fun.
8. Tree- This show often makes me wonder if the people who came up with it did some form of drugs. There's my answer.
9. Teletubbies Say "Eh-Oh"- Um.. Yes. I bet they do. 0_o
10. Up and Down Dance- *giggle*
11. Jumping for Fun- Wow these titles are really lame.
12. Follow My Leader- *BIG GIGIGLE* featuring Jonathon Davis from Korn.
13. Clouds- About the awesome shapes clouds make when you stare up at them, but not at the baby inside the sun.
14. Lullaby- The ending theme
Oh Your not DONE ---->Part 2..

Editorial
Let me be open for a second. I’m starting this website because I love being creative and I don’t get to do that as much as I’d like at my current job. I’m okay with that as it causes me to seek creativity in other outlets.... often with hilarious and sitcom-esq results.
This site will be my latest outlet, it should be safer than the time I went sky diving without a parachute to impress the hottest girl at school before my parents got home. I’m not the world’s best writer but I’m bringing people in to make up for my inadequacies. To fill the holes in content while I work on getting things rolling, I’ll be posting news bites that link to other sources that I hope I will be able to work with as I close in on our content gap. Of course I’ll be offering short opinion based editorials with each news bite as a means to give my unique perspective.
I’m also teaching myself web design. I’ve built a few sites the dirty way using slices and Photoshop but with the way the industry is going it’s essential that I learn to make sites the new old fashioned way. So as time goes on you will see this site go through quite a few changes, you may even find a few mistakes, like today I broke and destroyed the “Blu-Ray/Netflix” article, trying to create a “ Read More” button. I’m eaten up over it, but it needed to be rewritten anyway...or at least that’s what I’m telling myself.
I’ve written several people who blog for a living for advice on how I should go about making my web space worth something, and out of everyone Rob Bricken over at Topless Robot gave me the most tangible piece of advice.
“ You also have to be clear in your mission and distinct. There has to be a reason that people are coming to you, whether its breaking news, or a certain type of commentary.”
By the time I received his response, I had already had up 3 or 4 days worth of articles seemingly with no real direction or distinct voice. His words made an impact on me and that’s I decided to draw up a mission statement, but it never made it out of my head. In my mind I wanted to be a cousin of Topless Robot. I’d provide humor, original content and nerd news with a slight Progressive Christian, urban twist. Or in other words more slang and less cursing...but I didn’t want to limit myself, so I brought on friend who’s an excellent writer but no where near urban, despite convincing me his father was black the first night we met. My hope is if we provide quality content and commentary things will fall into place. My mission is to be here for all the nerds that like myself just want a way to escape and might be able to relate to my or Brad’s voice a little better than some of the others that already exist.
As I figure things out all I ask is that you have patience and understanding. All of this is both new and exciting for me. I want to know what the future has to hold but only God knows that and for now he’s not spilling the beans. Thanks for your time and OH MY GOD LOOK BEHIND YOU ! It's just Teletubbies. Never mind.

Epic Mickey, Might Be More Than A Game
Over at Kotaku is an insightful and inspiring editorial about plans and aspirations to make the "Epic Mickey" game more than just a Wii Exclusive gaming experience. They are talking comics and an animated feature. I for one couldn't be more excited. Reading this article will for sure give you a genuine FANGASIM... (It needs to spelled with all caps, sorry).With the game they are trying to create an experince of genuine "Nintendo first party quality"..I haven't been this excited about Mickey Mouse since I hit puberty ! There's lot's of concept art on the interne and in this months Game Informer. There's also some actual test stuff featuring an animatronic zombie Donald Duck. GAAAAAHH !!
As I’ve said before, I’m a big time Nintendo fan but this is ridiculous! 3 frick frackin months ago I purchased the DSi and ALREADY they’ve announced a new one, the DSi LL, which is the same system but with HUGE screens, bigger hard drive and a longer battery life. GOLDEN TICKET ! I knew I should of waited ! The first one was almost 200 dollars after tax. I hope they include the ability to play flash in the internet browser. That’s all this would need to be a killer app. That’s also all it would need to make me scream before trying to sell my current Dsi on ebay before non-gamers find out the news. The new system is coming out in the US next year, but Japan gets it next month. I know I’m being a hater but I hope it doesn’t include flash so I can just keep the one I have...Source:

Eminem & Jay-Z: DJ HERO Commercial
Who could say no to this ? I haven't followed the DJ Hero Hooplah because I know it's a $120 game and I'm supposed to be saving for a wedding and buying a PS3, But this commercial compels me to throw hard earned cash into the lap of video game developers that clearly know how to market a game....Should of used Kanye to mock his meme.. " Yo DJ Hero I'ma let you finish but blah blah blah.." I still laugh at the Kanye interruption jokes but it's getting old.
Tatsunoko vs Capcom finally has US Cover Art ! - Game Drops January 26th, 2010.
Is it just me or is the Wii getting some pretty hot exclusives moving forward. Of course you've got the Mario games (Mario Galaxy 2, and New Mario Brothers Wii) but there's also Epic Micky, Tatsunoko vs Capcom, The Grinder, Red steel 2, Resident Evil: Darkside Cronicles, Deadspace Extraction, Metroid: Other M, No More Heroes 2, the next Zelda, Monster Hunter 3 and a host of other games coming exclusively to Nintendo's little system that could...
I admit that I've been a Nintnedo fan boy since day one. I eventually bought a Xbox 360 because it was cheap and I wanted to play Street Fighter IV, I also plan on picking up the PS3 as soon as I move back in with my parents (long story..ask me later). Now I'm an equal opportunity gamer, but I always stick up for the Wii. It's like a little sister to me...except it never hit me in the mouth with a wrench when I was 8.

Heroes Sucks Less & Hype Manning
Fresh off of a Heroes live chat over on Toplessrobot.com ! Seriously if your not watching this season, your missing out on some good stuff. The show sucks a lot less than it did last season. Anyway I just wanted to inform the loyal visitors of this blog that we're bringing on a new writer, Brad Krohe. Here's some art he did on MS Paint.
And get this, his writing is just as good as his art ! That's write (PUN) cover your eyes kiddies because they are about the explode when you read the musings of B. Double Thrill Krohe ! Boom....
Deadpool Corps Cometh !
I'm a pretty huge Deadpool fan. I'm pretty excited about the Deadpool Corps Mini Event, I'm scared they'll do over kill but I'm still excited about the concept. I just hope the right people handle this. I love my Deadpool but when certain people draw him they mess it up for me. I hate ugly art, I stopped reading Merc With a Mouth because the art sucked, apparently it's good now. In my opinion Gail Simone and Udon had the best treatment. I wish she was writing the movie...
In fact, I liked the Wolverine movie a lot until they did what they did to Deadpool. I'm still scratching my head as to who would think that was a good idea. I'm still scratching my head as to what made the screen writer think that was even remotely cool to do.... That's like half way through the movie replacing Hugh Jackman with Rob Schnider and replacing his claws with eyelash curlers... My scalp is getting kind of raw, because I'm still scratching my head as to why no one who saw this change didn't pinch the guy in the eye and yell, GET THE FRELL OUT! Nope, instead it made it into the movie, and they guy never got pinched. They should hire a fan with veto power to just shoot down STUPID adaptations and pinch people who suggest them.
Anyway.. yeah Deadpool Corps.. new info.. Read About it here ! <--Source
ALWAYS NETFLIX !
Movie studios now release 3 versions of every DVD.
They release the double disc version which has special features on one disc and the movie on the other, then the single disc which only has the movie and lastly the blu-ray version which has all the special features of the double disc and usually a lot more. Sometime’s the a lot more is awesome, like additional commentary, or downloadable features. Other times it’s stupid, like 6 episodes of a TV show produced by the studio that’s completely unrelated to the movie property. I GUESS the logic is if your going to pay an extra ten dollars you should get some extra crap you don’t care about.

X-NUTS by Ryan Dunlavey
Click the comic see Full Size
If you know even the smallest thing about X-Men this should bring a small smile to your face or even make you laugh. To those thinking this to be insensitive, in this comic Charlie Brown is Professor X... easily the post powerful paraplegic ever. I'm sure it was explained, but I never quite caught how he wound up in the wheel chair...I like this explanation. The artist is Ryan Dunlavey. Check out some of his stuff, he's doing my dream job.
FREE CHICKEN MONDAY
Tomorrow, Monday, October 26th, 2010... KFC is offering free chicken AGAIN.
If you missed it the first time, it was a total disaster. There were riots, forest fires, long lines, and worst of all chicken shortages. You see, the last time this promotion was going on KFC underestimated the power of the word FREE. They were understaffed and unprepared for the fact that people love free stuff. If KFC put an ad on TV that offered "FREE USED INNER TUBES",a lot of people would show up, stand in line and wait for their free useless piece of rubber. They may not need an inner tube, or be entirely sure of what it's used for, but throwing the word free in front of it makes it an instant necessity. I guarantee if they only had one left, someone would get stabbed for it. It would be the saddest news story ever: "Today in Rogers Park, a neighborhood man was arrested for stabbing an elderly gentleman over a used inner tube from KFC.It was the last one, so I'm sure the judge will cut him some slack."
SO you'd think KFC would get that giving away something as delicious as chicken was going to require a little extra something something. But nope, they had an EPIC FAIL that almost brought down Oprah. Yes, Oprah was involved. KFC also underestimated the power of Oprah too, she advertised the promotion on her show and it was marketed as Oprah's free chicken give away. I don't know who runs KFC but I hope they took their heads out of the sand for tomorrows free give away...
I'm shocked they're trying again.. but hey I won't complain, it's a free piece of chicken and I'll definitely be there as long as there are no lines. I'm not waiting 20 minutes for ONE piece of chicken, that's thirsty son.

Friday Cereal Boxing- Captain (Cap'n) Crunch is a creep
Why did the old school Captain Crunch look a drug addict ? Look at him. He's creeping me out. All he would of needed is a pair of binoculars, a bong and a fence to complete his ensemble of creepiness. I wouldn't want him staring back at my kids while their in their pj's in the morning. I don't want him staring at me now. It's even weirder how when we were kids he used to offer us toys and comics inside the box in order to get us to trust him, and now that we're order he doesn't give us crap, unless it involves rebates..and that's no fun. Let's play it straight and change his name from "CAP'N CRUNCH to CAP'N CREEPY" This is the 21rst century, we need to keep it real... for the children. GET A REAL JOB CAP'N, & STAY THE FRELL AWAY FROM OUR KIDS.
Dave Chapelle STILL has it
This video makes me both happy and sad at the same time. It makes me happy because Dave Chappelle is still the most hilarious man on the planet and I laughed at this pretty hard all 4 times I watched it, in a row. But it makes me sad, because it makes me wish he was still on TV, entertaining me each week....But I get that Dave wanted his life back, I'm sure Kanye wishes he could do some of that these days.
It just sucks because Dave is so funny, to this day I laugh anytime I imagine him "digitally peeing" on someone in court. The words " clickty clow" have never meant so much to me before. Genius like his needs to be shared with the world.
Maybe they'll release his 3 plus hour routine at The Laugh Factory on the internet or on DVD because I'd PAY for more Dave Chapelle... which is saying a lot, because these days people don't want to pay for anything, but I'm telling you I would risk my credit for a set of Dave Chapelle DVD's with new stand up. I don't even really like it when people use a lot of profanity, but when Dave does it I fall on the ground laughing.... "It's GREEEN !"

Nickelodeon Buys The ninja Turtles..
Nickelodeon has officially purchased all of the rights to everyone's favorite turtles for 16 Million Dollars. So if the above ever happens, you'll be seeing it with the Nick logo.. Read the official news here: SourceI think my reaction was the same as most geeks. Allow me to reenact: "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...." But THEN I remembered.. Nickelodeon brought us Avatar: The Last Air Bender, Invader Zim, Rocco's Modern Life and.. *ahem* As Told By Ginger (it was a legitimately mature but girly show... don't judge me). Nick also aired the last batch of original Ren & Stempy toons, which were really really pushing it as far as standards go. Even now, they currently air Wolverine & The X-Men, and given the treatment of all those properties I think the turtles are in safe hands.
It really can't be any worse than what 4Kids did in Back to the Sewers or Flash Forward (The last two seasons of the 2000k TMNT series). Essentially what they did was take a series that developed a darker tone over the years and suddenly made it really silly and hard to watch. I hear Flash Forward got better torward the end, but I jumped ship when the "Dark Turtles" showed up.
I'm pretty excited about the Turtles next incarnation, apparently there's both a CGI cartoon in the works as well as a brand spanking new live action movie, AND let's not forget the Turtles Forever special coming out at the end of this year.. If you've been missing out, Turtle's Forever is a special where the 1980's Turtle's team up with the 2000k Turtle's AND the original Mirage Turtle's from the comics. I tried to find a clip but they've all been removed by 4kids..
Fan Boy Droool...Burger King Celebrates Windows 7 By Making Us All FAT
Now I could sit here and make 3,000 jokes about how stupid this is, but honestly I'm a little bit shocked they didn't try this in the states. Despite the current organic and health orientated infinitives American's are still eating like pigs. Even now during the recession, McDonald's posted record profits..so you can't tell me some where (most likely Texas) there's some guy who saw this and thinks: You know, that would be so much better if they slapped some bacon fat in the middle of it. In order to be funny you have to imagine the guy having the fattest voice imaginable... like he half swallowed some marbles and washed it down with melted butter.
Anyway.. I barely understand how a ridiculous burger truly markets Windows 7 or even comes close to making up for the mistakes of Vista. Microsoft really needs to make it a point to show off how much they've improved the OS instead of trying to kill off everyone who remembers Vista with heart ache inducing burgers.
To Microsoft's credit the " I'm a PC and Windows 7 was my idea." is pretty clever but before I spend ANYTHING I want to see it in action. The commercials should include clips of Windows 7 NOT asking you a question every three seconds, or how about a quick screen shot of it allowing you to do anything at all. My dad's computer still screams at him. My dad is almost 70. Windows Vista commits elder abuse against him anytime he wants to open a web browser. Microsoft needs to emphasize how Windows 7 won't do that....He still calls me and asks me how to make the voices stop.

About Megafriday.com
Mega Friday is ran by Christopher D. Sanders( Call me Chris), I am a graphic designer and cartoonist. You can view my professional portfolio at christopherdelbert.com and my more fun, illustrations at my Flickr account.
I am a self proclaimed “media nerd” and thus the majority of the content on this site will feature games, tech, comic books and the ninja turtles. For the most part this will be a dumping ground for anything I find interesting, cool, weird, urban, annoying, stupid, funny or worth discussing/making fun of. I make it a point never to use profanity, so you will often see made up curse words in my rants. It’s just more fun that way.
I love helping other people, so you will also see some buyer bewares or helpful articles about helping you save money/time on certain products. If you have content or content on your site you think would be of interest to me, send it over and I will credit you properly. I never mind giving others a push. I don’t have a blog roll, but If I ever start one you’ll be the first on the alphabetical list. If you would like me to review a product e-mail me at cdelbertsanders@gmail.com (copy & paste) and I’ll provide you with my mailing address.
I have a friend that will post the occasional article once a week, or more if he’s inclined. His name is Brad Krohe and he might be the funniest person I still talk to. If you hate everything I write, at least come back for the posts that say “by BK”.
I don’t steal content from other nerd blogs, but considering many of us visit the same source sites, you will see a lot of overlay. I suggest visiting us all and enjoying our personal commentary on the story. You may also see duplicate posts because I will submit my own news to other sites if the writer is having a slow news day or if a story doesn’t fit my style and I couldn’t think of any good commentary.
Thanks for Reading.
