hidden comedy

A movie made and advertised as an action or disaster movie with more comedy dialogue than serious, making people wonder if it's supposed to be funny or if the script writers failed. Movies like these are usually critically panned but box office successes.
Deep Impact is a good example of a hidden comedy. It seems like a serious film about the end of the world and the survival of humanity, though quite a bit of dialogue sounds more like it came from a Mike Judge film.

Dead Guitar era

A stretch of time in popular music where modern Rock bands reduce guitar use in their music in favor of keyboards and electronics. Usually lasts about 3-5 years. This does not mean guitar oriented music doesn't receive radio airplay or that the bands in question remove the instrument from their music altogether.
The time this definition was written could be considered a dead guitar era, with the rise in prominence of bands like Imagine Dragons.

Highschool of the dead

One of the coolest modern Animes out there today. The plot is your basic zombie survival fiction; a group of people (in this case five high school students, a nurse, and later a young girl and a dog) band together to escape a sudden zombie infestation. This series also focuses on issues like trust, love, and the downfall of everyone's worlds.

Yes the series does have a heavy amount of Fanservice, but that doesn't take away from the fact it's a terrific, well written series. There are currently seven volumes of manga and twelve episodes. It's unclear at this time if and when the series will continue.
Highschool of the dead mixes horror, drama, and humor in a plot that seems incapable of disappointing people.

Lame Duck Film

A theatrical movie, usually a major blockbuster, that runs past it's designated release season (i.e. summer releases playing into fall, holiday movies in January or later, etc.) to the point where only a few theaters are showing them anymore, and there are usually less than ten people in the audience, and chances are most of them already saw it during it's initial release period.
Jane: Hey you wanna catch that new superhero flick this weekend?

Bob: I don't know, the theaters will be awfully crowded since it'll be just coming out. Let's wait a month or so until it becomes a lame duck film.

Big Black

Devilman

Early, iconic Manga/Anime series by Go Nagai from the late 70's. The story is about Akira, a shy, somewhat spineless teenager who discovers a demon mask from ancient Mayan civilizations and becomes a demonic hero setting out to fight other demons.

Notable fans of the series include Glenn Danzig and Rob Zombie.
Devilman kicks serious ass! If your into anime like Elfen Lied and Hellsing then this series is for you.

The Deep Web

Describes low key sites on the web or unknown content on a well known site that is weird in nature and/or extremely hard, if not impossible, to understand why such content even exists.
The term curiosity killed the cat applies well with this term-and let me tell you, the deep web will show that not only was the cat killed, but subject to things I could be sent to jail for if I were to describe them on a site like UD.

My friend ventured into the deep web on an acid trip, and now thinks Chim Chim from Speed Racer is out to rape and kill him.
