Idle time... and perfect distraction. When I chuckle by myself, I am at my happiest, and when it ends, I remember that... a few things shall go unnoticed, like my depression.

Anyway, this is what the writers' strike can do. (And it also helps that all of my favorite late night talk hosts are here, too.)



Got it? Good. Now if you'll excuse me, I have ( Read more... )

I suddenly remember, of all people, Jenn Lazo. No, that isn't demeaning...

I've always looked for this online, but only belatedly realized that it's all on the NBC website... and you know. The political sucker in me suddenly misses watching Saturday Night Live (and... wait, I can't despite Sky for taking off Jack TV, since Maxxx has both The Daily ( Read more... )

If you've read this, then you must know this. If you haven't, and you're wondering why the heck I'm geeking about some satirical comedy that you don't even care about, then here's the entire thing (that I didn't transcribe when I wrote the entry - Wikipedia's handy for this one, thankfully):


And now, I don't know what else to do. Oh, it's almost six

And, when I'm alone in this row of seats, it means I have more freedom... to laugh.

Yes, I watch comedies, too, despite the reputation that I only mind about the serious stuff. But what better way to put the two together than Comedy Central? I'm a fan of The Daily Show, and I'm a fan of The Colbert Report, and have been watching clips at work when I ( Read more... )

If you're a CAM student who definitely went through PRINPRO - and perhaps tried to understand what the heck Sir Mariano meant with the difference between types, fonts and faces - you'll definitely like this. Or maybe you won't - who loved what I love?


I hope my embed works, though. As far as I'm concerned, anything beyond 500 pixels isn't compatible ( Read more... )

Oh, the stuff you do with a broadband connection when you're done with work...

While the rest of the world worries, you have weirdness from the folks that brought you genitalia in boxes, Natalie Portman rapping, and laser cats.







Obviously I'm a Saturday Night Live fan.

Too bad, though, that you'll have to really trawl the Internet for The Shooting, ( Read more... )

the film is actually an allegory
for death and reincarnation
but if you can read that into it
you must be as weird
as the people who made it

First quote from Jake Scott, director of the video for Radiohead's Fake Plastic Trees.
Second quote from, well, the song itself.

I've always loved Beautiful Ones, but it was only last year when I realized that the band behind it was Suede. I don't know - it's Brett Anderson's (very) nasal vocals, after all, that makes the band very distinct, and very classy, to some extent. Only lately would I eventually discover the band, and their many evolutions, from within its history ( Read more... )

...their ability to do videos so well. Then again, it's the fault of the many good directors out there - sometimes I wonder whether everything we've learned in INTROFI matters here. And it does.

A couple of videos, for now, both from Keane still:


Apparently this is a music video for Everybody's Changing, directed by Mark Pellington who also did How ( Read more... )

How do you juxtapose together old performances, rappers, balladeers, crooners, rockers and rastafaris (is that even right?) in a song that technically isn't in their genre? I saw this last night when I so much happier, then eventually people would proceed to destroy my happiness. Nevertheless, darn it, I love this video.
