Rejected By Cracked: Fictional Characters on a Budget

Posted on October 4th, 2011 by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

Day 4: Despite my big win many weeks ago, Cracked still feels the need to ignore my genius. It happened again in the photoplasty contest Fictional Characters on a Budget. The idea being what if your favorite fictional characters had to get by with less (like the rest of us these days) Here are the […]


Rejected By Cracked: Movie Mashups

Posted on July 15th, 2011 by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

On Doug Benson’s Doug Loves Movies Podcast he plays a game called “Build A Title.” This is where you build a long movie title out of other movies by combining movies that have the same first and last word in the title. For instance: “Live and Let Die” plus “Die Hard” becomes “Live and Let […]


Rejected By Cracked: If Historical Figures Endorsed Modern Products

Posted on June 16th, 2011 by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

Snubbed by Cracked…TWO DAYS IN A ROW! This contest challenged us to show what it would be like if historical figures did product endorsements. You can search out Cracked’s contest on your own if you’d like to see them (Including the “historic figure” Elvis Presley) but these were the ones that were unjustly ignored… For […]


Rejected By Cracked: Movies From the Perspective of Minor Characters

Posted on June 15th, 2011 by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

C’mon Cracked! How much rejection can one man take? Even my high school self didn’t get rejected this much! I realize that this week’s contest* spawned hundreds of entries…but in your 28 finalists, you didn’t even pick ONE of mine? Not one? How could you pass up these gems… Star Trek (2009) C’mon people! A […]


Rejected by Cracked: If Movies Were Realistic

Posted on May 25th, 2011 by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

Movies aren’t always realistic…but what if they were? What would things look like if Hollywood tried to “keep it real?” Well, if you go by the Cracked Photoshop contest about it, it looks mostly like a bunch of Star Wars jokes and Harry Potter getting raped and murdered (Really, Cracked? #1 for that?) But if […]


Rejected by Cracked: Classic Movie Video Games

Posted on April 20th, 2011 by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

Another Photoshop contest at cracked.com, another chance for Tim to whine about his entries that weren’t chosen. This time the theme was classic movies made into video games. I actually had 2 entries make the list but I had so many more that didn’t. Did they deserve to? Well that’s difficult question to answer…unless you’re […]


TANcast 145 – Give that Pianist A Sandwich

Posted on April 4th, 2011 by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

This week Tim discovers the positive contributions of Rebecca Black, Noah discovers a new bacon treat at Denny’s, Andy discovers the Drinking Buddies Podcast, a drunk fan “discovers” Tim, and you will discover Noah’s review of Source Code and Tim whining about his “Karma” on Cracked.com. Plus it’s a ultra-featherweight Monday Night TANfight where Christian […]


Rejected by Cracked: Villains In Their Spare Time

Posted on March 9th, 2011 by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

I thought Cracked and I we cool again. They used some of my entries in their last few contests. I made #7 in the Products that Apparently Exist in Movies contest and I placed 4 times in the Children’s Games Turned into Movies contest. But the latest contest was a chance to see what villains […]


Rejected By Cracked: Famous Movies if Made in Japan

Posted on January 12th, 2011 by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

Another bitter entry from Tim? Must be a Wednesday! Cracked totally screwed the pooch this week with their contest where participants were challenged to show what famous movies would look like if they were made in Japan. Look I get it. Cracked does these contests and there have to be winners and losers. But not […]


Rejected By Cracked: Holiday Movie Reboots

Posted on December 22nd, 2010 by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

I broke my recent string of failure and placed at #8 on Cracked’s latest Photoshop contest. The theme was holiday movies getting gritty reboots. As usual, I had many more entries and I think many of them were much better than the one they chose to put at #8 (and most of them are better […]
