  • Han Sparato Per Primo

    Even though we have about 20 prints that need framing and hanging, Sarah got me this badass unofficial Italian Star Wars poster for our anniversary. It’s going to look super tight hanging over the desk in my office, isn’t it?

    Okay. You have no idea what my office looks like. But trust me, it’s going to look great.

    Best. Wife. Ever.

  • Dark Knight PSA: Herpes

    If you only watch one video out of the Dark Knight PSA series on YouTube, make it this one.

  • Flight Of The Living Dead

    Snakes on a plane? That shit is straight up played out, yo. Zombies on a plane tho? Now that’s something I can get behind!

    This trailer makes “Flight Of The Living Dead” (formerly “Plane Dead”) look so horrible that it might end up being hilarious. Fighter jets that are obviously models? Hello Ed Wood! Firing machine guns inside an airliner at 30,000 feet? Holy suspension of disbelief, Batman!

    Honestly, if I didn’t love zombies and B movies and I saw this trailer, I’m pretty sure I would be out. So it’s a good thing that I do, I guess… ;)

    I guess the burning question for me is, when in the hell is this coming out?

  • Pulp Muppets

    I don’t know about y’all, but I think that 416film has done an awesome job of mashing The Muppets and Pulp Fiction together. I mean, this seriously must have taken a decent amount of time to do.

  • Experimental Jet Set

    For somebody who spends most of his free time jockeying a laptop, I’ve actually got a semi-busy social week ahead of me:

    • Tomorrow night is April’s BarCamp LA Geek Dinner at Shakey’s in Hollywood. While I’m not so much of a fan of Shakey’s grub, I’m really looking forward to hanging out with the BarCampers again.
    • Friday brings the Helvetica screening at USC. I managed to pick up a ticket when they were announced — and it would seem that I have to pay $25 at the door as I didn’t have to pay anything when I RSVP’ed. Part of me is debating going to the Laguna Beach screening instead tho. Tickets are still available for the 9PM show and they’re only $15 via PayPal. Decisions, decisions…
    • Sunday morning, I hop a flight to Oakland for a well deserved micro-vacation in San Francisco. It’s really more of a weekend trip than a vacation, but I’m going to be doing my fair share of relaxing. My Monday afternoon is spoken for — I’m supposed to be getting lunch with Andy (and hopefully Leonard) on the Yahoo! campus — but if you’re up for hanging out, drop me a direct message on Twitter (or an IM for that matter). I’ll try to squeeze in some face time with as many folks as I can before I see LCD Soundsystem with Frazier on Monday night and fly home for work early Tuesday morning.

    See? That’s a busy week for the likes of me — but I’m looking forward to it…

  • Hobo With A Shotgun

    I’m not sure why this trailer is showing in the Canadian release of Grindhouse and not the US one, but I’m happy to see it up on YouTube at the very least.

  • Un Chien Andalou

    And now for something completely different…

  • Helvetica

    I know that I’ll be more than a little geeked over seeing Helvetica when it finally comes out. I don’t want to have to wait for the DVD tho, so I hope there’s a screening in LA that I can catch before that happens. Guess I better add their blog to my feed reader and stay caught up with their announcements…

  • Children Of Men

    Were it not for my brother mentioning it the other night, I don’t know when I would have been clued into Children Of Men. And now I want to see it, badly. As someone who is a fan of movies and books about dystopian futures and whatnot, I’m seriously all over this.

  • Silent Star Wars

    Here’s a fan-fucking-tastic remix of the original Star Wars trilogy into a silent movie. Props to my coworker Charlie for finding this one.
