The Choice Is Made! The Traveller Has Come!
"I tried to think of the most harmless thing. Something I loved from my childhood. Something that could never, ever possibly destroy us. Mr. Stay Puft." (Who Ya' Gunna Call? by Dave MacDowell for Lowbrow Love Letter)

Best Civil War Reenactment Ever
Of course even I'm not sure what Slave Leia's role would have been, but the Stormtroppers, Ghostbusters and pirates make total sense. Damn history classes, always lying to us. (Star Wars Blog via Fashionably Geek)

Cross Stitch Pop Culture
Etsy shop weelittlestitches, who believe "in a world where cross stitch doesn't have to be boring or old-fashioned," have created some amazing patterns of superheroes, movies and TV shows that almost made me wish I had a hobby. Or skills. (Link via pacalin)

The King of Busts
Dr. Peter Venkman: The King of Busts by Jon Defreest. I would have imagined him more as a joker, but I'd love to see a whole Ghostbusters deck.

Best Rock Collection Ever!
Of course the reason these rocks and minerals are so rare is because you have to break through the layer of adamantite to get to everything else. This almost makes me interested in geology. Almost.

Who You Gonna Call: Faux-Magazine Busters!
Love Dan Schoening's recreation of the The Atlantic from the magazine montage scene in Ghostbusters, which now includes the oft-neglected Winston Zeddmore. (Link via The Atlantic tumblr, who shamefully did NOT include a link back.)

It's A Trap!
Who ya gonna call? Admiral Ghostbuster! You know, he says that so often it kind of loses all meaning — but not this time as this is awesome! (It's a Trap by Jerry Bennett, via pacalin)

Pop Culture Built My Hotrod
"All of a sudden, I found myself in love with the world
So there was only one thing that I could do
Was ding a ding dang my dang a long ling long."
Jimiyo's super famous car mashup is the most awesome vehicle ever made, with parts from: the General Lee, Ecto I, KITT, Herbie the Bluesmobile, the DeLorean and Mad Max. Seriously, it's composed of awesome. (Link from pacalin)

Maybe You Can Hire The Pop Culture Team
Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the Pop Culture Team.
Glen Brogan put together the perfect stereotypical gang for Front Magazine. 'We have Peter Venkman as the ladies man, Donatello as the brains, Chewbacca as the muscle, Screech as the wild card, Dobby as the mascot, and the A-Team van as the vehicle."

Stay Puft Marshmallow Man Anatomy
Gooey on the outside, crunchy on the inside. I must admit that I'm more than a little creeped out to find out that there's something else other than marshmallow inside the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man but I suppose he needs something to support all that weight.

Trap 'Em All, Let Egon Sort 'Em Out
A few more items from Gallery 1988's 3G (Ghostbusters, Gremlins, Goonies) show with The Autumn Society, like Scott Derby's Marine inspired tattoo.
I love Germán Orozco's retro take on the team — it's like Steamboat Mickey meets the Ghostbusters.

He Slimed Me!
A class-5 free roaming vapor, real nasty one too...
Pop artist Dave Perillo's piece for the 3G show (Ghostbusters, Goonies and Gremlins) at Gallery 1988. "I decided to homage to the 3 S's of the 3 G's, Slimer, Sloth & Stripe." The show opens Friday, Sept. 3.

Two Threadless tees that I have previously featured have been printed this week and are now available for purchase, if that's the sort of thing you're likely to do.

That 90's Show
Pop artist Glen Brogan's piece, As Days Go By, for a 90s themed art show for the Autumn Society. Wow, what a strange mix of pop culture: Jessica Rabbit, Earl from Dinosaurs, Space Ghost, Egon from Ghostbusters, Kermit from Muppet Babies, Hulk Hogan, Carl Winslow from Family Matters wearing Darkwing Duck PJs. No idea what is sitting on his butt or the TV, though I'm sure its obvious to others.

Beast Of Pop Culture Revelation
"And the dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. He had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on his horns, and on each head a blasphemous name..." Revelations 13:1Pop artist Augie Pagan imagines what just such a pop culture beast would look like and the result is terrifying. From right to left:
1. Star Trek Gorn
2. Tuan-Taun from Empire Strikes Back
3. & 4. Dragon and Cyclops from The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad
5. One of the Ghidora heads from Godzilla.
6. The Mugato from classic Trek series.
7. The Terror Dogs from Ghostbusters.

Something Strange, In Your Beverage...
I suppose that is one way to rid of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, but how big of a mug would it have to be? How do you heat it? What if it breaks? There'd be a tsunami of hot chocolate coursing through New York. No, no, exploding it with proton packs was clearly the sensible way to go. And yes, these are the kinds of things I think about. (One day left to vote for Staffell's tee, link via Shirtoid.)
Update: This post is winner of the Pageant of the Transmundane, Week 52. Thanks MC!

In The '80s Junkyard
All good cars go to the dump. Harsh but true. Ian Leino’s Chariots Retired is an '80s treasure trove.
L to R (front): A-Team, Dukes of Hazzard, Back To The Future, Knight Rider, The Blues Brothers, Ghostbusters, Magnum PI (back): ET, TRON, Airwolf, Transformers.
