Thursday Geek Links – July 9

I know it’s still Wednesday, but I’m just jumping ahead on my imaginary ‘blogging duties’ and dropping these two fun, links I was enjoying earlier this evening. Also, there’s only two because I already forgot the other million funny things I’ve looked at in the past two days (I really need to start using stumbleupon or something).

1Marvel Universe “Hook-up” Chart – I think it’s actually called the ‘relationship map’, but it’s a insanely detailed diagram/tree, charting all the romantic affairs (including those in alternate universes) between characters in the Marvel U. Kinda give a whole new meaning to the mantra, “Avengers Assemble!” I like how Wolverine has the most links to other characters. Imagine how many more connections he’d have if he could remember the past 40 years! Also, I sorta wished that the the Avenger’s butler, Jarvis turned out to be a surprise lothario. [via Geekologie]

2 [Insert Psycho screeching shower scene music here] – Every now and again I’ll go back and revisit “Shining”, the viral-version of the trailer for The Shining, but recut to look like a feel good, family film. Well, I recently came across this awesome collection of similarly recut trailers making films like You’ve Got Mail, Mrs. Doubtfire, and even Mary Poppins (!!!) look like horror/suspense films. Most of them have been around for a while, but I also stumbled across a few that were an unexpected surprise. [via Urlesque]
