Tonight, the 48 Hr Film Comp begins. I’m leading the writing team. We have some big acts to follow – check out the track record of Jenni’s Angels in past years:
\n2008: Borkhardt Hates You Too<\/a> (superhero)
\n2007: Destination Earth<\/a> (science fiction)
\n2006: Monster Hunter IV: Beyond Repair<\/a> (monster movie)
\n2005: It’s A Wonderful Library<\/a> (what genre was this, again?)
\nShould be a blast. In meantime, here be some linky.
\nVanity Fair’s 10 Best Political Videos You’ve Probably Never Seen<\/a>. Nixon rails against Bohemian Grove for being full of homos! Nixon plays the piano! Reagan goes on a game show and… you gotta watch that one, actually.
\nJapan has an island of empty buildings. Some guys sneaked on to it and took lotsa photos.<\/a>
\nPride & Prej as Marvel comic<\/a>. (Our local store had a couple copies of the first issue, it sold out fasty.)
\nAs always, I’m a sucker for collaborative one-take music videos. Here’s a guy called Nyle, and his track Let The Beat Build<\/a>, which seems to be him with his performing art school friends. Love it.
\nThis one is a favourite. Back in the early 90s, a company called Leading Edge Games released a boardgame based on the film Aliens. I had a chance to buy it, once – there were a couple of copies at our local chain bookstore Whitcoulls – but it was way out of my price range so I had to go away and think about it, and I never saw it again. It goes for crazy sums on ebay now – trust me, I’ve looked – so I’d resigned myself to never getting to play it. But now someone has created a computer version of the game<\/a>, free to play online. It is just as devilishly hard and addictive as had been promised by those good reviews fifteen years ago. Yay!
\nGnod<\/a> – uses some kinda weak AI to build networks of connection between books and films and so-on. Use it as a recommendatorium. Interesting to play around on.
\nAnd finally… this New Yorker article gave me the biggest gross-out moment I’ve had since Peter Jackson’s Braindead<\/a>. Read only if you dare. It’s called… The Itch<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
