Certain ingredients do not mix well with driving. Alcohol, of course, comes to mind. And we all know that driving after a large turkey dinner and/or heroin injection can lead to trouble. There is, however, a secret killer out there. Its name?
The man, whose car was equipped with a breath test device (the car won’t start if you fail), found his car refusing to start even though he had not had a single drink. After the man asked a court to remove the machine from his automobile, the judge demanded a test be done to verify his claims. Sure enough, after eating the ice cream, the man blew a 0.018! The judge then granted his wish and the device was removed.
So there you have it. Alcohol, heroin and ice cream: the three things you shouldn’t touch before getting in a car.
Chris sacrifices his honour to undergo a facial screen-test for our performance later that evening @ Drama Camp. What’s funny is that Chris was under the assumption it wasn’t meant to be jizz, LOLZOR!
“What the hell! is that suppose to be if it isn’t suppose to be jizz?”
I joined a group on Facebook called “Nibiru 22-12-2012 Where Will You Be?!”last year. Well I had forgotten about it until just this morning when I received this message:

The very least you could do is spell properly. Please spell properly; I think that’s my biggest issue with your argument. Your spelling.
“Believers of Nibiru’s existence, or not. I want to thank every member of this group for supporting, giving his/her opinions and participating in discussion. Nibiru is coming, keep up the hard work to save our planet.”
If Nibiru does indeed have a part to play in some fact meets fictional destruction of Earth, I would be wrapped in awe. What a cool sight it would be to behold. Your spelling on the other hand does my head in.
There are sooo many great and funny moments in this that it’s inspirational. This guy is definitely going to end up being hired by Marvel oneday, or better yet, making a living out of what he loves doing.
We are two bored 20 year old assholes who are going to make some stop motion films using action figures. most of them will be re-enacting super hero fights possibly in a humorous manner. you might like them. we would dig that. we’ll put up a new one every few weeks or so…
Thanos War, Golden Chauntlet [Part 2/2]
We’re in the process now of making our own characters so we can make our own series and not worry about copyrights. So hopefully that will lead to something good.
He uses Jasc Paint shop Pro 8 to do the effects and Windows Movie Maker to bring his creations to life, and I know firsthand how very primitive and tedious that editing software is. Mad props!
There’s a whole series so check it out via the links below:
Simon Hoegsberg captured 178 people over 20 days standing from the same spot on a railroad bridge in Berlin. Then he put the photos together in what could be the world’s largest panorama:
I like the presentation very much, but I feel like I would have liked it better had it been dedicated to a public charitable cause or something.
The Seed, a film created for Adobe, is animator Johnny Kelly’s first major project since he joined the roster of directors at Nexus – the animated film follows the life cycle of an apple seed:
“It was funded by Adobe,” explains Kelly, “and it was made with their spanking new range of fancy Creative Suite software:CS4. [Ad agency] Goodby, Silverstein & Partnersin San Francisco commissioned me to write, design and direct the film. It was a totally open brief.”
“I’d got a taste for paper craft when making my film Procrastination[which won Best in Book in last year’s CR Annual], and this seemed like the right project to give it another go,”Kelly says. “So everything was hand folded and glued. Myself and Elin Svensson, who helped assemble all the models, both had mangled fingers by the end of the project, covered in superglue and scalpel wounds: not a pretty sight.”
Seed is one of a campaign of films that Goodby has commissioned to show off the new features that Adobe has added to version four of the Creative Suite package that includes Photoshop, After Effects and Illustrator.
Paper-Craft at it’s best I’d say, and the soundtrack is awesome also.
Addictive TVhas created this remix of Danny Boyle’s hotly tipped new movie, Slumdog Millionaire, which is released in the UK on Friday. The movie tells the story of an illiterate street kid from Mumbai, who gets the opportunity to go on the Indian version of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
Sampling Slumdog Millionaire for its vibrant sounds and images, and reworking them into a fast-paced audiovisual remix trailer, Addictive TV were asked by the film’s distributors to give Slumdog Millionaire their unique treatment.
It makes for an interesting alternative to the average film trailer huh.
Danny Boyle’s film, which has now won 4 Golden Globes, and is nominated for 11 BAFTAs and 10 Oscars, is winning praises everywhere, and rightly so.
In Japan, Fujitsu also makes phones. They’re of the style so common in Japan—flat, rectangular clamshells—but are shiny, pretty and, as of now, waterproof. Offered by carrier NTTDoCoMo [the country’s biggest telecommunications company], it’ll survive for half an hour in up to a meter of water.
The fingerprint [Integrated Fingerprint Security System] technology is developed by AuthenTec, a provider of fingerprint sensors and solutions.

Users can use it underwater for about 30 minutes in up to one meter.
