Oh my gosh. I laughed and laughed and laughed when I saw this originally. First, let me tell you that my birthday is coming. This is important information. Why? Because I so want one of these, and this would be a fantastic gift. Really. I mean, most friends, hem-and-haw and say, "No really its ok... you don't need to honor my birthday in any way, whatsoever. I'm really just pond scum..." You know that particular drill. But that is not what I'm doing for you. I am coming right out and saying this. THIS. THIS is exactly what I want. And if 12 of you buy one for me, ALL THE BETTER. Apparently they even have kits that let you motorize them - and then chain them together?!? YES PLEASE! hahaha.
New Nolan Interstellar Trailer - Christopher Nolan is working on a new film. I first mentioned it a couple months ago - but the previous trailer couldn't even be considered anything but a pile of inspirational shots and then a trail of smoke leading out into the heavens. Now Nolan has release an actual trailer that has turned the interwebs into a roiling, frothing chaos of speculation and excitement. Some are saying Nolan said nothing in this trailer. Some are saying its the greatest trailer of the year.
Looking for a smile today? I smiled for 20 minutes straight while watching this video of Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle performing for this one on one homerun derby competition. I loved everything about this video. The kindness of the contestants. The golly-gee-wiz attitude of the announcer. The "Recorded with MULTIPLE CAMERAS" comment at the end. Pretty much everything about this little competition was golden through and through. I think my life is now a substantially better thing after watching this flash back to a better era.

If Your Dad Worked For Dreamworks - Yeah, ok, so now you know for CERTAIN your dad isn't as cool as you thought he was. DreamWorks special effects artist Daniel Hashimoto decided to take his family videos of his son and turn him into an action hero. They are all very short - but each one is wonderfully delicious in their own sweet way.

The Signal 2014 Sundance Science Fiction Magic - Since this year's Sundance I've been hearing rumor about a movie entitled The Signal that will be the next big mind-blowing head job to pay attention to. Brought to us by William Eubank, The Signal seems simple enough at the surface.
