The 12th Doctor
Peter Capaldi is the 12th incarnation of Doctor Who, accompanied by companion Clara Oswald. His silver hair and blue suit are a nice change from the head-to-toe browns of the previous doctors. If this $1400 coat is too hard on your wallet, try the items below!
Vin Diesel at the Guardians Premiere
At the European premiere of Guardians of the Galaxy in London, Vin Diesel did his best Groot impression, wearing stilts and donning an “I am Groot” shirt. We are all Groot, but some, like Vin, are more Groot than others.
Nick Fury
In the Avengers, Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) is the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. He’s the one responsible for recruiting Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, and The Hulk to join forces to take on Loki. No biggie.
Babydoll
In Sucker Punch, Babydoll (Emily Browning) is sent to the Lennox House for the Mentally Insane when her abusive stepfather blames her for her sister’s death. Scheduled to be lobotomized, she enters a fantasy world where she encounters the rest of the Sucker Punch crew.
BoJack Horseman
BoJack Horseman (Will Arnett) is an anthropomorphic horse who starred in the ’90s sitcom Horsin’ Around. Since the show’s cancellation, he’s been bumming around with his freeloading roommate. He sees a tell-all memoir as his shot at recapturing his fame.
Hawkeye
In the Avengers, Clint Barton is Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), a master archer and an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. Unlike teammates Captain America and The Hulk, he has absolutely no superpowers. But on the bright side, he’s been in a relationship with Black Widow.
Arthur Dent
In the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Arthur Dent (Martin Freeman) wakes to find that Earth is about to be demolished to make way for a hyperspace bypass. He’s able to escape, just barely, with the help of extraterrestrial hitchhiker Ford Prefect and still dressed in his bathrobe.
Karl Pilkington
Karl Pilkington is the Idiot Abroad. When Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant send him on a tour around the world, he moans and whinges every step of the way. He’s also the inventor of the Pilko Pump Pants, which you can make by sewing a travel pillow to your bum.
