Watching The Phantom Editor’s fan-edits of Star Wars has me itching to do my own edits of them.

Not looking forward to the amount of (re)watching that would involve. (never was a big fan of the originals).

I do not understand why people go on about (500) Days of Summer. Am I the only one who really, really, really disliked Tom?
Its just you. For once we see a movie where the guy was the victim of the ‘we’re just friends’ line. Summer was the bitch. Id…
I liked it. It’s not that I thought he was particularly likeable, it’s that I saw a fair...

I’ve always been interested in implementing some kind of ARG (Augmented/Alternate Reality Game). It’s passed through a handful of iterations over the years. Early in College I wanted to implement a KAOS game. Later on it morphed into an espionage based idea, complete with secret documents for the myriad sides to fight over. More recently I thought about involving some kind of...

You have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin’. Watchin’ X-Files with no lights on. We’re dans la maison. I hope the Smoking Man’s in this one.
Like Harrison Ford, I’m getting frantic. Like Sting, I’m tantric. Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy.

This is brilliant and sad. It’s the end of dreams time.
(via discoverynews)
I’m seeing this happen a lot lately. I have an idea for a project, and by the time I get everything together for it, the idea, the inspiration, is gone. The logical answer is to just move faster on them, but my resources are already stretched thin, and that doesn’t even begin to deal with the projects that require learning a whole new skillset.

That’s “Paul Mounet”, a french actor, who “died” in 1922. His body never was found.
Then, look at this:
An unknown man, painted in 1530 by Parmigianino.
Compare they:
Just to finish:
