upset
A one-word summary of Super Bowl XLII.
After winning every single game and not losing one, it was a spectacular upset to finally lose in the championship game (especially against a team they beat in a spectacular regular-season encore).

Battlefield Earth
Perhaps the worst motion picture ever released, not just because of how bad of a movie it was, but due to the criminal fraud charges levvied on the producers, Franchise Pictures, for overstating the film's budget in an attempt to scam investors.
If you are looking for a movie so bad that it was a crime to produce, Battlefield Earth is the perfect example.

Belvedere
A make of luxury car by Plymouth from 1951 to 1970. It was best known for its two tailfins in the rear.
A 1957 model was buried brand new beneath the Tulsa Courthouse in Oklahoma and was unveiled in 2007 exactly 50 years to the date it was buried. However, it was heavily rusted from water that seeped into the vault and all that was intact were items held in a sealed cylindrical capsule.

Crimson Omen
The name of the logo in the Xbox 360 hit Gears of War. It consists of a blood-covered skull incased within a blood-covered COG (Coalition of Ordered Governments) logo. These appear in the single player mode wherever a COG tag is to be found, as well as in multiplayer as a health meter (the more apparent the symbol appears on the screen, the closer you are to being downed).
The Gears of War icon that appears on your Gamercard showing you played the game is the Crimson Omen.
