Just a quick little post. I stumbled upon this great movie website called OnlineCinema. As they say it themselves, you can watch all the latest full length movies online for free.
I watched this movie last week and I don't really have much to say about it, not because it wasn't good but just because I don't. The movie stars Joseph Fiennes and Winona Ryder as the two lead characters of this dark comedy. Wilmer Valderrama is also in the movie and in my opinion steals the movie and does some of the best acting in it. There's also a host of other stars that make short guest appearances. Well that's all I have to say about it. If that's not good enough for you here's what my girlfriend had to say about the movie when we were done watching it.
"Well that was cute and entertaining"
If that doesn't get you to go out and rent the movie I don't know what will.
The Darwin Awards Official Movie Site The Real Darwin Awards Site that the movie was based on.

That video is just a small sample of the outrageous getups they were able to get their driver's license picture taken in. Go check out more of their DMZ pranks
Yes, you did read that right! I found out about this story over at Annie Atomic v2. A&P grocery store is sueing two former employees/college kids for $1 million dollars in damages due to a video they posted on YouTube. The video is a gangsta rap spoof incorporating vegetables as props and subject matter, since the duo, who go by the name of Fresh Beets, worked in the produce dept of the grocery store. The duo filmed the 4:15 minute video at their place of employment yet during hours when they weren't on the clock. After about a week of the video being on YouTube there was one complaint lodged to the corporate headquaters of A&P. The duo was suspended from their job and then a week after that were formally fired. Which in my opinion is a justified response by management due to the fact that it was filmed at their place of work, now whether if I would of fired them or just given them a stern warning and the silent treatment had I been their boss is debatable.
One would think that them getting fired would be enough of a punishment. Yet in someone's infinite wisdom over at A&P corporate headquaters, they have decided to file a $1 million dollar lawsuit against the recently fired rappin duo. Can someone explain to me why would a large corporation file such a claim against two college kids who have just been fired from their $10 an hour job(if that)? Do they plan on setting up a payment plan if they win the case? You would think that there would be someone smart enough at A&P to realize that if they just simply fired the two boys, ignored the video and left it at that that that would be the end of it. Yet by filing this lawsuit they are just giving the video more exposure and giving themselves some very bad press. What do they believe they will gain from this besides making themselves look like a big bad corporate entity?
Well the two upstart rappin filmmakers have a website/blog where they keep everyone updated on the goings on in regards to the video and lawsuit. There is also a link on the site where you can send comlaints to A&P. So far over 600 people have sent in complaints from the site, to A&P in regards to the outlandish lawsuit.
Here are links to their website: fakelaugh.com, myspace page and last but not least my I present the actual video that has caused such a response.
The internet is probably one of my biggest time wasters. Watching movies is one of my favorite pastimes along with a few other things that I won't mention here. So what do you get when you combine the internet and movie watching. Well in my case not a whole hell of a lot done. That's why I'm not happy that I found this website: Vid-Stream. This website has a bunch of full length feature movies to watch, free! Yeah you heard it right free. The only down side is that you have to watch them on your computer at a small size, but who cares they're free. Essentially I wouldn't watch everything from this site, there are movies that just call for watching int he theatre on a big screen. Basically what this site is good for is watching those movies that you didn't get to see in the theatre and you don't feel like spending your $4-5 dollars at the video store renting them. So if a movie falls into that catagory for you go see if it's on Vid-Stream.
So I stumbled upon this great little website the other day and immediately I knew that I had to share it with all 3 of the people who check out my blog regularly. Yes I'm included in that number so I guess it's really all 2 of the people who check out my blog regularly. Anyway, this website isn't really a time waster it's a time saver. Yep for once I'm going to show you how to save time not waste it.
When we first open up a web browser at home it generally automatically opens up to our home page or another website we prefer, that we have set in our web browsers preferences. Than from there we start our surfing to other sites we like. Those other sites that we frequent, we have usually saved as bookmarks so we don't have to type in the address all the time, all we have to do is click our bookmarks and we are taken there. What if I told you that there is a website that will show up to 12 of your favorite sites and than from there it's just a simple click away to each one. That website is called Homepage Startup. So essentially the concept of this website is that you enter up to 12 of your favorite websites and than you set Homepage Startup as yup you guessed it, as your homepage. There you have it my my tip of the day. Enjoy.
Alot of times guys get alot of flack for starring at a woman's breasts. In our defense, sometimes we just can't help it, especially if the woman in question is wearing a low cut revealing top. Now, what would happen if the roles were reversed? If the outline/bulge of a guy's penis was clearly visible through his pants? Would a woman have a hard time(no pun intended) not starring at it. Well the video below seems to answer that question.
So I read this book a couple weeks ago and I'm still thinking about it. This is the second novel by the gifted writer Jonathan Safran Foer. His first book, Everything is Illuminated was all right. I myself enjoyed the movie better than the book which is for the most part rarely the case,mostly because they left out the long, boring and tedious passages of the book. In this new novel, it seems he just got everything right. Set against the back drop of NYC a year after the terrorist attacks on 9/11. In the book, you will find the main character and narrator, a naive and much too smart for his own good 9 year old boy named Oskar traveling around the city. Oskar's father died in the collapse of the World Trade Center and now he is on a mission to find out the mystery of a key he found hidden away in his fathers cloth's closet. The key was in an envelop with the name Black scrawled on it. So Oskar than decides to meet every person in the 5 boroughs with the last name Black to see if they know anything about this key and their possible connection with his dead father.
One might think, and rightfully so that a book about a 9 year old boy who lost his father in the 9/11 attacks would be a horribly sad and depressing read. Though at times it is, since really there is no way of escaping that fact. Mr. Foer balances that out with some extremely funny situations peppered throughout the book that will leave you laughing out loud.
This is an interesting blog that I happened to stumble upon earlier today. It's by Samantha Wolov, who is a photographer who as she says in her own words, takes pictures of people having sex and calls it art. Now don't get the wrong idea here, this isn't a blog filled with smutty hard core sex images, albeit alot of the stuff isn't safe for work place viewing. On her blog she shows some of the pictures she takes and she also discusses the fine line between fine art nude photography and porn that she constantly straddles(pun not intended).
Ok this video is simply mind boggling and the hook. I can't even begin to fathom how long it took them to do this stop motion video using dice and dominoes. The band/artist is Fujiya & Miyagi, an electronica alternative band(never heard of them before), the song is called Ankle Injury and it was directed by Wade Shotter at Factory Films.
Last week I did a Nine Inch Nails post. So I thought I'd follow that up this week with another post about Trent Reznor. Have you ever wondered what Trent was up to before Nine Inch Nails? Well look no further, here's a video that answers that question.
Ever wonder about what you can do with all those plastic shopping bags that you get, besides throwing them away or recycling them? Well you can make art of of them of course.
OK so here's something that will definitely put a smile on your face. This is a video of some guy that got caught dancing on a security camera in Best Buy. This guy can really dance, check out the moves busts at around the 55 second mark.
