- I meant to continue my run of movie reviews, but my posting to the blog got back-burnered when things at work this week went completely off the rails. I'll resume postings here now that things are under control.
- I may not have particularly loved Be Kind Rewind, but it has spawned the "sweded" film movement. While many of these attempts are as lame as one would expect, you have purely brilliant efforts like this sweded version of Tron. It's shot-for-shot perfect.
- Check out this sanity-numbing flash animation of something that Minolta has done. If this stuff wasn't pretentious enough, they had to add the aimless piano plunking to it. As I sat there watching this animation of their stupendously fantastical accomplishments in such a globally groundbreaking breakthrough, I couldn't help wondering who on Earth dreamed up this presentation. And if that weren't enough, I was presented with the final screen at the end, which is probably the single most hubris spouting piece of drivel I've read in a number of years. I won't repeat it here. You must suffer through the animation if you want the depraved pleasure of that final screen. Now, if Minolta spent .0005% of this effort developing print drivers...
- The SCO legal case never seems to cease, which is amusingly become enough of an annoyance to those involved that they have stopped using properly reserved legal speak in their filings and are openly venting their frustrations.
- An amusing Star Wars advertising campaign from SpikeTV
- Here's some great online ad targetting
- Adobe has opened up a beta of their new, free, online Photoshop Express program. I played with it a bit, but not too much. What I saw looked fairly nice.
- I would in no way get my hopes up about this, but the powers that be are trying to shop Jericho around for a new home.
