Top Trumps: The Donald Lays Claim To Gaga’s Career

December 21st, 2011 By Kris Silver

Donald Trump is a man of many talents; he pioneered the modern day comb over, he discovered that President Obama was actually a Senegalese street cleaner called Babacar Ousamane, causing him to resign from the Presidency and is rumoured to have been the man who killed Kim Jong-il, with a Chuck Norris style roundhouse.

But now, ?The Donald,? as he is known, has made his most audacious claim yet, he (and he alone) is personally responsible for the meteoric rise to fame of the 21^st Century musical behemoth, Lady Gaga.

Awesome or Off-Putting: NASA Fires Guy Who Says They Lied About Moon-Civilization

September 19th, 2011 By Shawn Lindseth

Awesome or Off-Putting is a weekly delve into cryptozoology, ufology, aliens, medical marvels, scientific wonders, secret societies, government conspiracies, cults, ghosts, EVPs, ancient artifacts, strange facts, odd sightings or just the plain unexplainable.

Here’s what we as a people know concretely about the moon; it’s a wicked awesome planet that thinks it’s better than Earth, but really it’s not.

Seriously, the moon is so dumb it can’t even maintain an atmosphere. That’s, like, planets 101. Shouldn’t have skipped that class, eh moon?

And of course, without an atmosphere there’s absolutely no chance of a civilization ever popping up. After all, when astronauts visited the moon back when America had a space program – they didn’t see anything, right? Well according to one former NASA employee – they actually did see some old abandoned buildings and what-not.

Muse Want To Reach For The Stars Just Like S Club 7

January 6th, 2011 By Matthew Laidlow

Ok, we're sorry. Honestly, we can't apologise enough to the legions of Muse fans that we might have accidentally upset with our throwaway comments. Recently, there have been a few choice accusations of calling Muse a poor carbon copy of Radiohead ? you know that band that awkwardly reinvented their own sound from OK Computer to Kid A and that marketing campaign called In Rainbows?

Obviously we're the fools. After a bit of research, have we realised that Muse aren't influenced by Radiohead. God no, instead it's all been a case of mistaken identity. S Club 7 are who inspire Muse on a daily basis!

Happy go lucky S Club 7 once released the feel good anthem ‘Reach For The Stars’ and after playing it on a loop continuously, Muse frontman Matt Bellamy has decided that he wants to perform a gig in space, going one better his pop counterparts.

Moon – Blu-ray Review

August 5th, 2012 By David Scarborough

Warning: Brace yourself for a sickening display of cinematic affection.

As far as movies based on lunar missions go Moon is up there with the best of them. With only one man and a computer voiced by Kevin Spacey, this is a film that blows the dust away from the sci-fi genre.

Creased or Folded? hecklerspray Tells You the Way it is

August 4th, 2012 By Chris Laverty

This week?s half full and half empty.

Folded:

Moon (strange Sam Rockwell, watchable as ever)
Plaid shirts (classic style anonymity. Buy a padded one to look like a window cleaner)
When Eight Bells Toll (the youngest you've ever seen Anthony Hopkins. If you're off sick this is bound to be on Film4. It'll really pass the time too)
Omega Seamaster watch (you can't afford one, but no-one will know when you stare through the jewellers? window)
Autumn video games (Modern Warfare 2, Splinter Cell: Conviction, Uncharted 2, Alpha Protocol, etc ? prepare to have your pockets lightened)

Watch The New Moon Trailer! Watch It!

April 28th, 2009 By hecklerspray staff

Intelligent sci-fi is for gimps.

This film could have been about going mad on an island, a mountain or even the comfort of your own home… but no, they had to take you to the Moon.

Sam Rockwell comes into shot, and soon you find yourself wishing that you were somewhere else. Sam, also named Sam in the film is an astronaut under a three-year mining contract that lands him on the surface of the moon. Satellite communications are shot and he can only receive transmissions via tape.

A Friday Quickie, To Tickle Your Comedy Gland

March 25th, 2009 By Ian Dransfield

There are times in life when things look bad, when you don't see the point in much and when, well, you just downright hate things.

Then something happens that picks you up, makes you happy again and fills you with a beaming smile that somehow manages to envelop your entire body, filling your whole physical presence with joy from head to toe.

Take, for example, when a UFO sighting was reported somewhere in Wales, and this police radio conversation was conducted:
