A Ridiculous Amount of Nerdy Fan Music
There doesn’t seem to be much in the way of news this afternoon that fits in my broad yet somehow narrow TR scope, so why not enjoy five excellent nerdy fan music videos? Above is a song about that time Ms. Marvel got raped by a dude who was mind-controlling her and all the other Avengers were all weirdly fine with it, but after the jump is a new Hobbit song from the lovely lady behind this piece of magic, a musical ode about Shia the Beef’s rampant cannibalism, a TMNT song sung by Baxter Stockman Keith Apicary, and last but not least, a lovely piano cover of the Game of Thrones theme. I hope you enjoy as much as I enjoy taking off work early.
