Not as I imagined

I'm hesitant to call this "Heroes Character Series #5" because it's not like the others in my mind. I wanted to a Sylar video to a really cool song that perfectly describes him. This is more 'fun' than descriptive. And it was suggested to me as a joke. But I thought it would be different, and that it definitely is...

Smack My Bitch Up!

I tried to make this video 3 years ago and it crashed my computer. Now, I have my revenge.

Psych-apple Express

What if a really funny show was combined with a really funny trailer?

No, I wasn't on drugs to make this. I give you Psych: in the style of Pineapple Express.

If I Ruled Hollywood (AND NOW I DO)

Okay, no way. I don't. But I can pretend I do long enough to make this. This is the Alternate Universe Destined Movie idea that was pulled from the overwhelming popularity of the Destined Trailer.



I was trying to find the perfect song. Then I saw the Watchmen trailer. It was a sign from God.

Villians To the End

To pump you up for Heroes Season 3! September 22 is too far away.



This was the viewer's choice pick of the winners of the Random Multi-Fandom contest.

If I Ruled Hollywood...

I would make this bitch in a SNAP!!!

Why can't this really happen? Why???

Kids Are WAYYY Luckier Nowadays Than We Were

Especially if their parents can afford the most awesome $189.99 toy EVER MADE.

Disney is marketing an "Ultimate Wall-E Robot Toy" that is the closest thing to having an actual damn cute robot as we'll ever see.

According to MakerFaire.com: "Designed and developed through a close collaboration between Disney, Pixar animators and Thinkway, the Ultimate WALL·E features 10 motors, giving it a high level of movement and animation. The remote control makes it easy for kids to program WALL·E's movements. An innovative touch programming system lets kids direct WALL·E simply by making patterns on the remote's touch pad. With voice activation and a follow-me mode, WALL·E can follow the sound of a human voice and detect someone entering a room. He also has several emotional states and an easy system for programming thousands of combinations of movements with the remote. Numerous sensors allow him to detect and respond to his environment, including infrared sensors that allow him to detect obstacles and steer around them, sonic ears that detect sound direction, and touch sensors. The Ultimate WALL·E is also MP3 compatible and features built-in speakers. USB cables and rechargeable batteries are included. The Ultimate WALL·E will debut this fall at ToysRUs and www.disneyshopping.com; SRP $189.99."

Personally, I want to buy this thing and mess with my dog.





By the way people, this is how Terminator starts... and IT'S ADORABLE!!!!!

Good Lives - Psych Video

Finally, a Psych video. Couldn't find the perfect song, but I've got it now.

Finally...

The Rock HAS COME BACK TO SUNNYDALE.

I've been waiting 3 years to do this video.

Heroes Character Series #4: "Somebody's Watching Me"

I love this song... and this video worked well.

Heroes Character Series #3: "Beautiful"

Heroes Character Series #2: "Famous Last Words"

Watch in high quality.

Heroes Character Series #1: "Scar Tissue"

Yes, We Can

One for the holidays...

"Apologize"

Finally finished after a long hiatus.

"I Never Told You What I Do For a Living"

Okay, I realize now that I misquoted the title in the video. But it's okay. It's still full of amazingly beautiful people.

The. Best. Video. I've. Ever. Made.

There's no better way to describe it. My enthusiasm is overwhelming.

The Sh*t's Already Getting Hard to Walk Through

That's certainly what our campaigners are thinking right now. Hillary, McCain and Obama (I didn't mention Huckabee or Ralph Nader because they're both in a different type of election - the "no way in hell" vote) are struggling while unknown sources (each other) fling poo at them. However, the ones towards the Junior Senator from Illinois, Barack Obama, seem downright cold.

First, there's this photo (above) that was thrown out quite recently, criticizing Obama for not putting his hand over his heart in the Pledge of Allegiance. Obama's response was that he always puts his hand over his heart during the Pledge. There are probably 1,000s of people in America that don't even know the Pledge, sadly enough.

And here's another nugget of stupid. This article, given to us by the AP, brings light to the controversy over a photo of Obama taken in 2006 in Kenya (his father's homeland) where the Senator is wearing traditional Islamic dress. Or to a lot of people, the bottom line is that he's in a Turban. And we all know Turbans + 9 divided by 11, then multiplied by 23 = epic fail for America.

Then there's Bill Cunningham's show of brilliance when he interviewed John McCain and called Obama by his full name (with the obvious intention of criticizing that his middle name is Hussein).

Is this American politics now? I'm not for people crying foul every time somebody of a different color or religion is criticized. (By the way, Obama is a Christian and has written what is in my opinion one of the best speeches on religion and politics given in our time). It seems to me, however, that a candidate should be attacked solely on their policies. If you don't believe there's no bias here, go try to find an article (that doesn't make headlines elsewhere) where somebody is trying to prove that Hillary isn't American enough because of her parents' beliefs or John isn't patriotic enough because of what he was wearing in another country.

A candidate's religion matters to some, sure. Where they come from is also just as important. But making those things the basis of an attack is lame. You couldn't use "his dad was a Muslim and he's wearing a turban in this photo" to keep Barack from getting a job at a bank; you shouldn't be able to use it to keep him from getting a job in the White House.

If you want some smear tactics, how about a video of Bill falling asleep during an MLK speech? These attacks are the same thing as the video of the Clintons supposedly falling asleep at Reagan's funeral. Except... this one has more drama/lolz.

Fail: My Favorite Word

It's so crisp, clean and effortless. To see it spelled out makes you hear this gruff, finalizing voice.

Fail.

It's even better with the period at the end. There are many sounding posts that pay tribute to perhaps the greatest word in the English language: see The Fail Blog, and G4TV's Epic Fail Thursday blog.

Did you think that Epic Fail Thursday updated on Wednesday? Fail.

In the meantime, here are some more pics courtesy of Fail Blog. I think it might become a regular thing.

New Fanfic Completed!

Yay for creativity. This took me surprisingly not long even though its the most psycho story I've ever written. Read it.

Giants ROCK YOUR WORLD

Amazing game. In fact, the most exciting fourth quarter since the Tennessee Titans and the St. Louis Rams' Longest Yard. But screw the football - let's talk about the commercials.

1) Best one, hands down



2) Promising second



3) Funny and cute



Like the Super Bowl itself, the reigning champ Anheuser-Busch was crushed by underdog Pepsi for the funniest commercial. The Bud Light commercials lacked, save for the Carlos Mencia one. And the Clydesdale/Dalmation Rocky bit was cute. But other than that, the closest one to these was the AMP'D commercial where the guy jumped a woman's car with his nipples.

BTW, dancing geckos aren't that funny, even if they are dancing to "Thriller."

J.J. Abrams backs me up

Well, kinda. Last December I got on my soapbox and talked about Cloverfield/9-11 comparisons. Well, the movie's out and we've seen it (or you should have, at least), and I think this excerpt from the production notes of Cloverfield, found at Cloverfield Clues, says it best:

“’Godzilla’ came out in 1954 in the shadow of the bomb being dropped in Japan. Culturally, you had people living with this terror they had experienced – but in the guise of something absurd and preposterous. My guess is that it enabled people in Japan to have a catharsis.”

“To me, that’s one of the most potentially impactful aspects of this movie,” he continues. “It takes so many images that are so familiar, that are potentially horrifyingly scary, and puts them in a context that is ludicrous and laughable, so that people can experience catharsis in a way that doesn’t feel like they’re going through therapy. People have a hunger to experience that, and to process the terror we all live with in a way that doesn’t feel like you’re getting a social studies lesson. And at the end of the day, whether or not that’s something they’re aware of, this movie allows them to have that release. And for younger kids,” he says, “you just have one heck of a great monster movie.”

Yes, we do.

BTW, did you catch the Dharma Logo on the digital Department of Defense card at the beginning of Cloverfield? It's in the bottom left corner. I sure didn't. Thank you Cloverfield Clues.

I could not have said it better myself

Thank you, Joel.

WTF is wrong with this school?

What is wrong with this picture?

This ARG thing is getting bigger

Last night, I saw an Oceanic Airlines commercial all the way on VH1. Pretty extensive considering the Hanso Foundation Commercials only happened on ABC during Lost hour.

And someone at Lost Ninja sends us this from Sydney, Australia.

Game time

There's a new Alternate Reality Game in Lost-land. I've only gotten through chapter 1, but it's a lot less complex than the Lost Experience. So yay.

Wanna play?

It's starts with...

Conspiracy time...

Awhile back, a youtube guy named lostgiddy posted this strange Lost Season 4 Trailer that supposedly was real, but had nothing but text and a strange "easter egg" at the end....



Through the magic of YouTube, it's nearly impossible to tell what the hidden number was, but the best guess is that it's a giant "6" - which isn't one of "the numbers" (4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42 if you're with me).

This is definitely a real trailer for Lost. So what the hell is 6?

Here's a new thing that I just noticed thanks to a friend sending me a think abc.com is doing called Everything You Need to Know About Lost in 8:15. It does what it says (amazingly) and recaps the island timeline, leaving the last 30 seconds to talk about the "snake in the mailbox" flash-forward of the season 3 finale.

At the sentence where the narration switches to the future a "6" appears on screen. What the hell?
