Hydraulic machinery, guttural metal growls & mortal threats

It would be hard for us to like a robot villain more than ED-209. Sure some others spring to mind, like the original Soundwave, the Invid, and even the O.G. Cylons, but ED-209 kicks human ass in ways the others just can’t. The design of the Robocop-battling Enforcement Droid is just so innovative and sinister, it’s impossible […]

Dead or Alive, you're coming with me

Gotta admit it, I was a bit skeptical about the Robocop reboot when first images leaked online. And the first trailer wasn’t that hot, either. But Watching ED209 strut down an Afghani street with empire overtones sure does promise a bit of thought behind the inevitable gunplay. “Why is America so robo-phobic?” Hmmm… good question Sam […]


Robocop. The remake. Need we say more? Arguably Paul Verhoeven’s best film, and one of the best sci-fi action films of the 80s (the finest decade for the stuff), gets the reboot. It will be tough to live up to the original, but what the fuck can you say about a modernized ED209?! Bring it […]

Relive the sci-fi cult favorite with MMS Diecast Series

It’s time to let the inner sci-fi nerd that lives in your heart free, let him bound down the streets with joy as it sees the release of this incredibly detailed ED-209 figure from the Hong Kong crew over at Hot Toys. Part of Hot Toys’ highly collectible MMS Diecast Series, the ED-209 figure features […]


LIAS friend and contributor Jason “Id rather be at an ICP Show” Shaltz took to his lens to photograph NYC-based label MISHKA‘s latest lookbook. This time around our man duked it out in the ring at the legendary Gleasons Gym in Brooklyn with up-and-coming (and still undefeated) pro boxer Zachary Ochoa for the Death Adders: […]

Some of America's best films screened where they were set

I really love the  theme behind this multi-locale film festival titled the Rolling Roadshow, a nationwide tour of free outdoor 35mm screening experiences pairing some of America’s best films with the famous locations where they were shot or set. This year the theme is “We Are All Workers”, which ties into Levi’s brand recent marketing […]

WolverKitty, Boba Kitty, Gundam Kitty, RoboKitty...what's there not to like?

These Hello Kitty Model Kits were designed by Stiletto Ninja, and they are absolutely bad ass. Although they claim to be a “model kit” I have my doubts — these kind of look like renderings. But really, who cares? If people didn’t lie on the internet what would be its point? Sharing actual, veritable information? […]


Movifone put together the 25 Best Sci-Fi Films of All Time, and in a total shock they really hit it. Usually, all those generic “Best 25…” lists miss huge. People always snob over films like Robocop (classic), but not this time. They got almost all the greats (altho what happened to Akira or Aliens?), including […]
