Geeky Halloween Inspiration: Mario and Luigi Hats
Remember Real World: San Diego when two of the guys dressed up as Mario and Luigi? I loved it, and hope every year that two guys will stroll into the Halloween party I'm at as the Super Mario Brothers.
If this is the year you or your boyfriend is going to dress up as the legendary plumbing/Princess-saving brothers, then let me help you get started with the top of your costume — the hats!
Sights From Comic-Con 2008
In case you missed it, Comic-Con 2008 took over San Diego this past weekend, and Buzz was there getting the dish on all our favorite TV shows and movies that are about to hit the big and small screens. What am I looking forward to the most? Watchmen!
WonderCon 2008: The Costumes
Comic-Con is no doubt the ultimate nerd fest, and if it had a kid sister, it would definitely be WonderCon. Taking place over the weekend here in rainy San Francisco, I was lucky enough to hang out and get an up close look at some amazing costumes, comics, and the inside scoops on some of my fave Sci-Fi shows and movies — including some deets on the new X-Files movie! Stay tuned for more WonderCon goodness, but to kick off the coverage, I give you a slideshow of just a sampling of the costumes I caught wondering around the expo floor.
High Tech iPhone Trick-or-Treaters
With 2007 being the year of the life-altering revolutionary iPhone (cough, cough), it was a no-brainer that there would be a few good iPhone costumes on the loose this Halloween. I expected to see phones made from cardboard, but definitely nothing as advanced as this. The two guys in the vid below are the real iPhone deal, sporting fully-wired gigantic iPhones.
