I wish to Evil Flying Jesus this trailer was official, but no — it’s a fan-made call to arms, reminding men that they should probably watch The Expendables on August 13th if they want to keep any rights to their penises. I’m not going to lie; I’m ready to punch Julia Roberts in the face after watching this thing. Okay, I was ready to punch Julia Roberts before, but now I’m ready to be mean to her after I do it.

Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
