Speed painting videos are fairly popular on YouTube.
For those unfamiliar with the term, speed painting is usually done on a digital medium on a time crunch. It is not, however, a time-lapse video. Thus watching these things on YouTube is a fairly impressive thing. The accuracy of some of what gets done in ten minutes [...]
In the realm of comic book movies, The Dark Knight now reigns supreme.
ComingSoon reports that The Dark Knight’s current domestic box office gross is $492.689 million. The previous reigning champ was Spider-man, which hit $403.7 million, or $491.952 million if you adjust it for inflation. Either way, The Dark Knight is now on top, making [...]
One must admit that despite the fact that the best I could do for the Joker picture is what I found below, they do share more than a passing resemblance, smile-wise. And more than that…
I’m not necessarily a huge Weezer fan, but they’ve had some good music. However, their latest music video for the song “Pork and Beans” makes me laugh. I’ve got to say, the songs not bad, either.
But the video…almost every conceivable internet fad you’ve ever seen on YouTube has made its way into this video. Mentos [...]

As much as I appreciate a complex, compelling yarn, the simple storytelling of many cartoons still captivates [...]
I got the chance to see The Dark Knight again yesterday (my father- and brother-in-law hadn’t yet seen it, so we went). Having already enjoyed the film once, I had the chance on this viewing to appreciate and ponder some of its finer details, the foreshadowing, the glimpses at the thematic elements, and the symbolism [...]
Remember “Simpsonize Me?”
Well, now you can make your own little Manga Me avatar for your blog, chat buddy icon, or whatever. I use Twitter during the day and it was funny to watch all the people I follow slowly adopt the manga icon throughout the day yesterday until almost everyone was using one. Try it [...]
The buzz is building for director Zach Snyder’s Watchmen adaptation, set to hit theaters March 6 next year. Perhaps the most objective indicator of that is the fact that sales of the graphic novel have increased tenfold just since the trailer debuted last month. According to this article in the New York Times, last year’s [...]
Probably not another full Halo game…although I guess that could be the case. Maybe a Halo 3 expansion or something…hmm…
I’m getting ahead of myself.
Background: the other day, the folks at Bungie snagged the Edge Award for Interactive Innovation, beating out some pretty major contendors (Portal, Super Mario Galaxy, Wii Fit, Rock Band, and Grand Theft [...]
Al Franken or The Joker?:
