Theater Dorks, Come Forth: Sesame Street Did a Les Mis Parody
And it's more filled with more food puns than that time Peeta in their Catching Fire was an actual piece of pita bread. Jean Bon Bon. Flantine.

Proof that Every Disney Movie Is Improved by the Presence of The Emperor’s New Groove Yzma
With her "Yzma is Best Princess" series, artist Charamath has reminded me that I really should rewatch The Emperor's New Groove this weekend. There is no better way to spend 78 minutes of one's life. Not sleeping, not lounging, not socializing. Certainly not doing anything productive. Why do we even have that lever?!

Ghostbusting With Your Kids Just Got Cooler Thanks To This Ecto-1 Mod
Man, Uncle Bryan is the best Uncle. Why? He created this Ghostbusters version of a Cozy Coupe for his nephew. And I kind of want to steal it. Bryan Wilson spent just $5 for the car itself on Craigslist and explains how he put it all together here. We've also seen an awesome Batmobile version. Now if someone could just do this for my actual car, we'll be ready to go bust some ghosts.

Think Of The Children: A Review of The Walking Dead: Season 2, A House Divided
Mild spoilers ahead.
One of my favorite scenes in Telltale's first Walking Dead game is the part where Lee teaches Clementine how to shoot a gun. He doesn’t want to, and she’s a bit scared. But when she finally gets it right, they smile at each other with pride - him in her, her in herself. It’s a strangely tender moment. Arming a kid made me uncomfortable, and I futilely hoped she’d never have to put that skill to use. The phrase “necessary evil” came to mind.
It’s quite a contrast to the reaction I had during A House Divided, the most recent episode of The Walking Dead: Season 2. In an unsupervised moment, a clueless youngster whips out the handgun she’s found. Clementine ducks as the girl obliviously points the business end toward her, asking what they should practice on. I was furious. “Holy hell,” I thought. “Has no one taught this girl to shoot?”
Apparently my ethics are rather conditional.

Fan Expo Canada's "Cuddle a Cosplayer" Controversy and Ignorance Of Convention Harassment
Fan Expo Canada is presenting Toronto Comicon this weekend, March 7-9. Celebrity guests in attendance this year include Eliza Dushku, Tatiana Maslany, Sean Astin, and more. But if you're a cosplayer headed to the show, you might need to keep an especially close eye on your fellow attendees. Why? Because an email blast sent out by the convention proposed physical contact with cosplayers as a way to sell tickets.

Guess Which Character Amy Acker Got On A Joss Whedon BuzzFeed Quiz
Amy Acker first landed a Joss Whedon role in the Angel television series where she played Fred/Illyria. She's gone on to feature in a few more of his projects (Dollhouse/Much Ado About Nothing). BuzzFeed, as you may already know, is known for their ever-growing number of quizzes which are meant to place you in a certain personality category (or something even more vague). Acker decided to take one of these quizzes, "Which Joss Whedon Heroine Are You?" and got an unexpected result - Firefly's Kaylee.
For the record, I got Cordelia.
