This... I just... What?
#This #Goingtotheshops #What
I don't think there are words to describe this. Just watch.
It's like a mix between Colins Bear and that video with two guys riding each other down the highway.
Edit TimmehB. - this makes so much more sense now. Turns out this video is made by one of the graphic animators on Tron legacy, to be exact, the guy who designed the title sequence. So no wonder the compositing is fucking amazing. Here's his website.
Edit part 2 TimmehB - Having a look through his videos, it also looks like he is the guy who animated the xbox visuals for startup and firmware upgrades. This guy is my new hero.

It's quite amusing to me now to watch the Star Wars hashtag twitter feed and just see how much hate is pouring in for these changes.
To be fair, there have been a couple of people who have said that they actually like the new changes.
But they probably also worship satin, rape small children, love Jar Jar Binks and believe Jake Lloyd was robbed of an Academy Award.
fuckers.

Jurassic Park - The latest casualty
#StarWars #ET #GeorgeLucas #JurassicPark
In the wake of George Lucas slowly changing Star Wars into a complete abortion, I still to this day point the finger at George Lucas for being the one to get into Steven Spielberg's ear and say "dude, you should change those guns in ET into walkie-talkies".
Which all sounds very much like a joke - but in the 20th year anniversary edition of the film that was released on DVD, that mother fucker digitally replaced the government agents guns with walkie-talkies.
Of course, the worst news is still to come.
I put my best journalist socks on and managed to obtain a still frame from some of the altered shots that ILM are working on for Jurassic Park ahead of it's blu-ray release in October.
And i have to say..... i'm not really shocked.
Jurassic Park (1993 Original)
Jurassic Park (2011 Altered)
Yes, you may have noticed, all of the dinosaurs have been replaced with walkie-talkies.

I love a good TV ad.
When i quickly skimmed over an email from a friend linking me to an ad that country music legend Willie Nelson covered Colplay's The Scientist for, i giggled and couldn't wait to see it....
But this TV ad sent chills up my spine.

Twitter. Faster than Earthquakes.
#Twitter #TwitterAd #FasterThanEathQuakes #TigerBlood
Really Twitter? This is you first TV ad?
Although i consider myself to be somewhat of a tech head - I can still certainly appreciate the amazing technological age we live in, and Twitter plays a huge role in illustrating this.
But this is a pretty self indulging way to go about telling the world about your product.

Terry Gilliam explains Monty Python's animation.
#Montypython @Johncleese @PythonJones
This is brilliant
I love Monty Python, it entertained me as a kid and taught me not to take everything at face value. So when i heard that they were making a new movie, understandably, i got excited. When i heard it was a 3D animated film, i soiled my pants. Unfortunately the film is not being animated by Terry Gilliam, the mastermind behind the animations in the T.V. series, however i wouldn't be surprised to see at least some part of it animated by the cut out genius.
So, some details, Their next film, A Liar's Autobiography, is an animated 3D movie based on the memoir of the late Python member, Graham Chapman, who died in 1989 at the age of 48.
The film will use Chapman's own voice - from a reading of his autobiography shortly before he died of cancer - and entertainment channel EPIX announced that the film will be released in spring 2012 in both 2D and 3D formats.
Produced and directed by London-based Bill Jones, Ben Timlett and Jeff Simpson, the new film has 15 animation companies working on chapters that will range from three to 12 minutes in length, each in a different style.

Another Dead Rockstar
@rockstargames @teambondi #LANoire
An earlier post I wrote on the Castle revealed mega game giant THQ were shutting the doors on their Brisbane office in Australia. A few days ago, the gaming industry took another massive hit.
Team Bondi, also known as Rockstar Bondi, responsible for developing one of the biggest games of the year, L.A. Noire, officially went into administration on the 31st of August 2011.
3 months ago, former employees of Team Bondi created the website, www.lanoirecredits.com to properly list all the credits including over 100 employees that were shunned from the list due to the termination of their contracts. The lack of credits had opened up a brawl between the game development company and the IDGA. It has also been recognised that many employees have made formal complaints about the working conditions of the studio, siting 12-hour work days and "lengthy crunch times" (Whatever that means).
The remaining intellectual property has been sold to George Miller's studio, Kennedy-Miller Mitchell.
More Cha Cha Cha Changes!!
@starwars #SWbluraychanges #starwarsbluray
This is getting silly now.
Here's the NOOOO! It's original Blu ray source now.
I guess Lucas wanted to make Jabba's palace look bigger or something. This just looks shonky and shit.
Oh course! Now Ewok's BLINK!
Oh let's put a CG Dug in among the puppets! This was the greatest muppet movie ever made! Come on!
Jedi Rocks already sucks enough as it is. Bring back Lapti Nek
The new Obi Wan Krayt Dragon Scream is just so silly.
I'll update this post as I find more silly unnecessary changes. I bet they changed the sock puppet space slug in Empire Strikes back.
BONUS
Deleted Scences trailer. We finally get to see the Wampa attack inside the rebel base on Hoth and the Sandstorm sequence after Sail Barge/Pit of Carkoon scene.

HAHA I dare you to buy it now.

Voice Over - A Hollywood God
#RIP #DonLaFontaine #TheVoiceOfGod #OnThisDay
Here is a post Haynezeeboy has been hassling me to do for a while, and it's one that's close to my heart.
"When you arrive at the pearly gates, the voice you hear isn't God, it's God trying to sound like Don LaFontaine"
Don LaFontaine was a Hollywood legend.
He was without a doubt the most sought after & busiest voice over artists in the world. Having revolutionised the way that film trailers are presented.
And having coined the infamous phrase "in a world...."
Don LaFontaine passed away on this day, the first of September, 3 years ago.
In this time, nobody has managed to fill the booming void left by the Hollywood legend.

The man lived a fascinating life - one of tremendous privilege, natural talent and with an amazing professionalism & down to earth approachability about him. There was a reason why this man was worshiped by the biggest names in Hollywood for decades.
Even Peter Cullen, the voice of Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh & Optimus Prime from Transformers enjoys the casual lifestyle of being an in-demand voice over artist who is able to charge an obscene fortune by-the-word, and be chauffeured too and from a recording studio and is well known for not even bothering to change out of his pyjamas.
The whole story captured at 1/60th of a second

BAM!

I'm a little pissed off that kids these days have way fucking cooler toys than I was able to get my hands on. At least now i don't need to ask for one of these and can just go and buy it myself.
Comes in Shark and Clownfish varieties.
Buy them from Air Swimmers here. or from MandMtoys Here. Unfortunately they don't ship outside of the US or Canada yet. Or it seems you can possibly buy them in Europe/UK from this site.

Allen Gregory - Or What Jonah Hill does now that he's too skinny for comedy movies.
@Jonahhill #Allengregory
A new show on fox starring Jonah Hill. It's about a 7 year old boy who has been home schooled to the point of genius and now he has to go into the public school system. Been done before, but this has a fairly high profile cast of comedians who you know and love.... wait...
that guy from SNL who plays Macgruber. (Will Forte)
That guy from 3rd rock from the sun who was always squinting. (French Stewart)
Except he's old now.
And a whole heap of other people. Anyway, now Jonah Hill can lose as much weight as he wants and still be potentially funny. I guess this is his way of reassuring us that his humor comes from his mouth and not "Fat guy in trouble" situational comedy. We shall see.

This is the greatest thing ever, gives me the hit of nostalgia for Mario plus a dash of the new school with the best game of the decade.

#Resonance #CinemafourD
A unique project that explores the relationship between geometry and sound. Over 30 Visual and Audio designers/studios participated in this cool little video. I think my favourite is the "Momentary People" studios submission at 7:09. But all of them are pretty fucking awesome.

A Spanish artist by the name of Yolanda Dominguez used fat, old women to explore the concept of how ridiculous our image of fashion and models is today. The idea being that models are so far removed from the every day person that their role in fashion is questionable. anyway, take a look.
