With all the Pixar sequels in the works, many fans have been left asking why we're not getting an 'Incredibles 2.'

Paula is a cosplayer from Argentina who works hard to create her detailed and colorful costume designs. We were really taken by her costumes inspired by ‘Bioshock’ and Harley Quinn of Batman [...]

Jeremy Taylor — Tue, 20 Nov 2012 14:55:15 +0000

In the tear-jerker animated film 'Up,' a home is lifted into the sky by a cluster of party balloons. While it all looks great in Pixar's beautiful animated style, it doesn't seem like it would be something you could pull off in real life.

But, in fact, cluster ballooning is a thing, and Jonathan Trappe may well be the world's leading cluster balloonist.

Hilarious 'Expendables II' Trailer Using Pixar's 'Toy Story' [VIDEO]

Critter — Tue, 04 Sep 2012 20:14:04 +0000

It's another incredible video mash-up! I don't know how these people do it or how they have the time to put these together, but I'm glad they do. It would be a rather dull and boring existence without the video editing skills and dedication that these people bring to our lives. We can all thank these nameless and mysterious persons who've provided us countless hours of entertainment. Without them the only thing left would be more cat photos and videos. The internet is a better place thanks to the creators of video mash-ups.
