Link roundup

1. After a year out of football, Pacman Jones is trying to make the Bengals. Ochocinco torched him in practice.

2. Fark on a CNN article:

Majority of Americans: Immigrants are lazy free-loaders who take our jobs by working harder for less pay.

3. I've been waiting for this feature for years - - Metroid The Other M will feature a cinema mode:

This theater-mode movie is about two hours in length and divided into chapters like a DVD film. It's not just the movie cutscenes straight from the game, though -- there's some pre-recorded gameplay bits to it as well, although those sections aren't recorded off your own moves as you beat the game.

Via.

And a few more links:

1. Relatedly, Metroid: Other M sounds excellent.

2. Somebody is targeting members of Hemet's gang task force (in California).

3. Kawaii versions of the Incredibles.

4. Bad week for Kevin Smith, now he's using Twitter to complain about a C- his movie Cop Out received from Entertainment Weekly. Shucks, his movie is either horrendous, or he needs to sue the marketer for crafting such unwatchable advertisements.
