Anyone who has been through or seen someone go through cancer treatment knows what a difficult experience it is. The way the treatment is conceptualized, understood, and dealt with plays a huge part in the patient’s recovery. With children, it can be even harder to explain what cancer is, how it is treated, and why it is happening to them. That is why this news story out of Brazil so awesome. Brazilian hospital A.C.Camargo Cancer Center has “rebranded” their cancer treatment as Superformula , teaming up with Warner Bros. to use real superheroes from the DC universe in order to help inspire the patients in their Children’s Ward. Watch the video below to find out more about it: Superhero Cancer Treatment The Superformula is packaged in covers marked with symbols for characters such as Batman and Wonder Woman, and accompanied by special comic books and animations that show the characters going through similar experiences as the children. Additionally, the game room was turned into a “Hall of Justice,” and the interior and exterior were redesigned to fit the theme.
Here’s one for all you nerds out there: Kaley Cuoco working her tongue on her way to the Jimmy Kimmel show. Unfortunately, there isn’t a whole lot else to get excited about in these pictures, unless you’re a big fan of seeing your favorite actress covered up from head to toe. But I’ve gotta admit that Kaley is still looking pretty good here. So when you finally finish building that robot double of her, let me know. I might be interested in taking it for a test drive. » view all 17 photos Related Articles: Kaley Cuoco Gets Kinda Hot For Hop Katy Perry Needs To Go Away!

Just most of them. » view all 23 photos Related Articles: Kaley Cuoco’s Big Bang Boobies Kaley Cuoco Bikini Twitter Pictures Kaley Cuoco Nude For Allure Magazine Kaley Cuoco Is Wonder Woman Photos: WENN.com
I don’t normally do many posts on Kaley Cuoco , because I don’t watch The Big Bang Theory , because I’m not a giant nerd. Luckily though, I don’t need to watch some crappy TV show just to see some cleavage. That’s what screencaps are for. Like these of Kaley from last night’s episode. As far as I can tell, the joke was that Kaley’s cleavage is amazing, but the nerd on the left refused to look at it for some reason. Hilarious? Sorry, I still don’t get this show. Anyway, don’t make the same mistake as this idiot, and enjoy the view. » view all 18 photos Related Articles: Kaley Cuoco Gets Kinda Hot For Hop Kaley Cuoco Bikini Twitter Pictures Kaley Cuoco Nude For Allure Magazine Kaley Cuoco Is Wonder Woman
Latino Review is citing a source who says Warner Bros. has settled on storyline its 2015 Justice League movie. According to the tipster, the film will look to issues 183-185 of the Justice League comic, which was released back in 1980. That plot has Darkseid — confirmed as the movie’s villain — attempting to use a magical laser beam to blast planet Earth to bits and move his home world, Apokolips, into its place. Yikes! Latino Review ‘s stories are quite usually accurate, but until the news receives official confirmation, I’m taking this with a big-ass grain of Kryptonite. Besides, as cool as this sounds, there’s a hell of a lot more from DC’s storied history worth mining for the first cinematic team-up between Superman and Batman (and the rest, cough.) I think DC and WB need to consider all options available to them before committing, so to help them out, here are three other superpowered super stories worth exploiting: 1. Crisis on Infinite Earths (1985) By the 1980s, the DC universe had stopped making sense thanks to 40-plus years of superhero funnybooks that had been reactively and haphazardly modified to suit the aesthetic tastes of the times. Batman was both the grumpy avenger of the 1970s AND the campy 1950s version whose relationship with Robin unfairly inspired the moral panic book Seduction of the Innocent . Superman was both a stiff-necked last son of Krypton and the guy who had Krypto the Super Dog. No superhero’s official backstory made any sense at all, basically, and DC’s official explanation, the Multiverse (all these various contradictory versions of characters existed in numerous parallel dimensions) now made less sense than Mulholland Drive. To fix this mess, DC writer Marv Wolfman came up with Crisis , in which two godlike beings — The Monitor and his evil counterpart the Anti-Monitor — used DC’s various character incarnations in a battle over control of the Multiverse. Total destruction was narrowly avoided when even stalwart villains like Darkseid joined the fight to stop the Anti-Monitor — the result being that DC became a single universe once more and some inconvenient characters were erased seemingly forever from Continuity. (RIP: Supergirl and Barry Allen.) Subsequently, that universe was rebooted, and the next two years saw Superman restarted at issue 1 and the publication of both Batman: Year One and Batman: The Dark Knight Returns . Since Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight series and Zack Snyder’s upcoming Man of Steel both take their cues from the post- Crisis DC universe, they don’t need a reboot, but not so the rest of the DC movie and television continuity. We know Darkseid is the villain of the Justice League movie, but that doesn’t mean his evil plan couldn’t have the happy result of willing the recent Green Lantern movie, and the old Wonder Woman and The Flash tv shows out of existence forever. A Crisis -inspired plot could give us new versions of those characters without the tedious need for any sort of origin-story movies. Just so long as Mark Hamill’s Trickster stays in the picture. 2. War of the Gods (1991) You know which character is unfairly ignored, despite frequent, abortive attempts to revive her onscreen? Wonder Woman . By far the DC superhero with the most potential for epic plots full of crazy mythology this side of Superman, Wonder Woman is an immortal demigod and the second most powerful active superhero in the DC universe. Too bad though, because instead of the terrifyingly powerful Amazonian princess we need, every attempt to bring Wonder Woman back ends up being some silly faux-feminist nonsense that manages more than anything else to infantilize the character. This is why of all the trepidations I have about Justice League , the most troubling is how she’ll be portrayed. Warner Bros. can fix this by basing the plot of Justice League on the War of the Gods crossover, which was created to celebrate Wonder Woman’s 50 th anniversary. That story had the ancient Roman gods go to war against the ancient Greek gods (which is kind of like the original cast of Beverly Hills 90210 starting a gang war with the cast of the CW’s 90210 ), while pantheons of other ancient cultures rose up and tried grabbing a piece of whatever was left. Wonder Woman and her fellow Amazonians of Paradise Island end up having to save Earth, with some help from DC’s other heroes (including a Brainwashed Captain Marvel). Darksied, being the antagonist of DC’s New Gods, is the perfect behind-the-scenes manipulator to rile the old gods. And best of all, it gives Wonder Woman, criminally neglected in filmed-entertainment for almost 40 years, a chance to be front and center of Justice League without it coming off as painful tokenism. 3. Hostess Snack Cake Wars Finally, we come to the greatest and the timeliest crisis for Warner Bros.’ Justice League to overcome: The horrifying shortage of Twinkies. From 1975 through the early ’80s, Hostess advertised heavily in the pages of Marvel and DC comics via a series of hilariously irresponsible short comics featuring each company’s superheroes and villains battling over control of — no, seriously — Hostess snack cakes. You can see the whole series of them here . Each adventure involved either some nefarious villain’s plot to steal or disrupt the supply of these delicious, obesity-causing confections — believe me, I know. #formerfatkid — or superheroes using Hostess cakes to foil criminal activity. No matter who lost, we won, however, because Vanilla Pudding Pies were the shit. Of course, now we know that if the average super villain was serious about destroying the supply of Hostess Ding Dongs and Twinkies, they should have gotten their MBA. So why not make this current event the basis of Justice League ? Have the ruler of Apokolips form an asset management company, buy Hostess, and loot it from the inside via perfectly legal tricks like destroying the employee fund. Thrill to the helplessness of the Justice League as they fail to convince a bankruptcy court that not only should Hostess employees get to keep their pensions, but that Darkseid is planning to destroy the universe. Darkseid could even run for president, citing his business acumen as proof of competence and rendering Superman painfully impotent as cable news channels constantly demand to see his Kryptonian birth certificate. Far-fetched? Hell yes, but no more so than the idea that unions are a force more evil than the Legion of Doom. So what would you like to see in the Justice League movie? Sound off in comments.

While the GOP gathers in tropical storm-plagued Tampa to Do That Thing They Do, this week’s new DVD selections feature a rallying cry against the status quo and an overblown, flag-waving spectacle based on a board game that, all things considered, is still pretty fun to watch. HIGH: #ReGeneration (Virgil Films; $19.99, DVD) Who’s Responsible: Written and directed by Phillip Montgomery; narrated (and produced) by Ryan Gosling; appearances by Noam Chomsky , Howard Zinn, Talib Kweli. What It’s All About: The film’s marketing suggests it’s a documentary about the Occupy movement, but it’s got a more ambitious agenda than that. #ReGeneration feels less interested in the economic roots of the protests than in the cultural underpinnings of Occupy (mass media manipulation, the ongoing wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, corporatization, the crumbling educational infrastructure, our interactions with computer and TV screens instead of each other). Interview subjects include activists, intellectuals, high school students, the founder of Adbusters magazine, and just plain folks who feel somewhat helpless about their ability to change the world. Why It’s Schmancy: Packing such ambitious subject matter into 81 minutes leads to a certain lack of focus, but the movie ultimately stands as a rallying cry for the new “Me Generation” to rediscover a sense of community and to fight back against being turned into wage-slave drones controlled by shadowy figures on high. It’s also probably one of the few documentaries you’ll ever see that features critiques of the media from both the legendarily leftist Chomsky and Libertarian Fox News commentator Tucker Carlson . Why You Should Buy It: The bonus features are relatively meager, but the deleted scenes include more thoughts from the late Zinn ( A People’s History of the United States ), some interesting interviews with Japanese teens and their parents (who seem to be dealing with the same cultural issues as their North American peers) and the use of the phrase “Coca-Colonization,” which I kinda love. LOW: Battleship (Universal Studios Home Entertainment; $34.98 Blu-Ray, $29.98 DVD) Who’s Responsible: Written by Jon Hoeber and Erich Hoeber, “Based on Hasbro’s Battleship”; directed by Peter Berg; starring Taylor Kitsch, Brooklyn Decker, Liam Neeson, Rihanna What It’s About: Nefarious aliens follow a beacon signal sent out from Earth — stupid science! — and the planet’s only hope to repel the invasion is a cocky, trouble-making Naval officer (Kitsch) and his plucky crew. Will they save the day? Will Kitsch win the hand of girlfriend Brooklyn Decker over the objections of her dad, the admiral (Neeson)? Will this ludicrous but entertaining action extravaganza find an audience on home video after tanking at the box office? Why It’s Fun: Granted, a big, loud, stupid and expensive movie based on a board game pretty much encapsulates everything that’s wrong with Hollywood these days. But as big, loud, stupid summer movies go (and the fact that it’s on DVD before Labor Day tells you something about its fate in theaters), Battleship is surprisingly entertaining in its silliness. Despite its illogical story line, the hackneyed characters and the movie’s unapologetic, join-the-Navy bursts of jingoism, it never lags. That sounds like damning with faint praise, but how many other elephantine high-concept explosion-fests in recent years can make the same claim? Why You Should Buy It: The DVD includes the requisite making-of and meet-the-cast extras, and the Blu-Ray throws in a few additional ones, including the previsualization of an alternate ending and a look into the special effects and the legendary USS Missouri (which plays a key role in the film). If you’re looking for something to throw into your home theater system to show off the booming sound and the crisp hi-def images, this one will hit the mark.

Well, another power couple have locked lips and the result may be nothing short of earth-shattering. No longer relegated to the sidelines in this Summer filled with Batman and Spider-Man hoopla, Wonder Woman and Superman have hit the headlines with a snogging session that has turned the super-hero universe into a flutter – or at least some raised eyebrows and a little good-old fashioned gossip. Could their off-screen romance some day even make it to the big screen? The smooch took place in the final throes of issue No. 12 of DC Comics’ year-old Justice League series which introduced new stories, costumes and even origins of the members of this longstanding super posse. (The publisher introduced the Justice League of America as they were called then in 1960, three years before rival Marvel unveiled its equivalent, The Avengers.) DC Comics co-publisher Jim Lee told A.P. via ABC News that the kiss is not a “stunt or an alternate reality smooch.” “This has been in the works for some time and we certainly wouldn’t have pulled the trigger without there being great creative benefit to the liaison,” he said in an email to A.P. “Beyond the joy and sorrows of new love, there are potentially huge ramifications and dramatic ways this single relationship between these iconic characters will change the entire political and interpersonal landscape of the DC Universe.” All of that from a kiss? What happens when they finally hook up? This is not the first time the super-hero power duo have had a fling, by the way. In the ’80s they had a short-lived moment of passion, but Superman ended up with Lois Lane. They also canoodled in Frank Miller’s Dark Knight Strikes Again a decade ago. Beyond the smooch heard around the world, Wonder Woman has some other news to boast since her last foray into the headlines. Her costume has changed and she is now the daughter of none other than that zenith of Greek Mythology, Zeus. You go grrrl! Given Hollywood’s penchant for hot power couples and the lure of box office dollars that often follow super heroes generally, when will Wo-Supe (or maybe it’s Super-Wo?) share that kiss on the big screen? Tell us what you think…. [ Source: A.P. via ABC News ]
I have to say that of all the Rihanna vacation bikini pictures I’ve had on the site in the last week or so, I think these have got to be the worst. That’s not to say they’re not hot, she’s still wearing a bikini top after all, but yesterday she was on a yacht in an extra tiny bikini drinking beers and smoking what I imagine is some sort of strange smelling cigarette. Allegedly. Compared to that, these pictures are pretty tame. I still like those mocha bikini breasts though. Keep ‘em coming.
I’ve never in my life seen one episode of The Vampire Diaries , I’m not a thirteen year old girl after all, but after getting these pictures of some chick named Kat Graham walking down the street I may have to set my DVR. Is it still on the air and what channel? Anyhow, if you’re going to make your first appearance on this site, this is the way to do it. If those legs were any longer she wouldn’t have a torso. Hot. I look forward to seeing more of this hottie. Send me some bikini pics on the Twitter .
