So in conclusion: Star Wars + LEGO + Millennium Falcon + Ultimate Collectors = Greatererer =? Greatest.

Oh yea. it’s $500.

Eh. So Greatest – $500 != Greatest. But still freaking great. Just a notch below Greatest. I can wait for a 50% off sale haha. But I digress. As I carefully explained to my officemate who just bought a PS3…It’s cheaper than a PS3 and it’s better than a PS3. It’s great.

• Robotics are freaking scary! It’s only a matter of time before we’re replaced by robots — or at least an army of Albert Einsteins with freakishly real facial expressions.
• A robot could never replace Ari Gold, though.
• Some Napoleon Dynamite fanboy used Google maps and mapped out every location from the movie.
• We need more clever marketers like these in the advertising world.
• A maxi pad is mistaken for a fetus. Looks like somebody failed Bio 101.
• Kung Fu vs. Yoga. ‘Nuff said.
• FYI: big SUV’s not allowed on the Brooklyn Bridge.
• …and the list of top 100 wikipedia searches this month.

That’s all folks! Except for the nasty weather, we had a great weekend. We hope you did too!

On an August morning in 1978, French filmmaker Claude Lelouch mounted a gyro-stabilized camera to the bumper of a Ferrari 275 GTB and had a friend, a professional Formula 1 racer, drive at breakneck speed through the heart of Paris. No streets were closed, for Lelouch was unable to obtain a permit.

The video by itself is crazy. But while it isn’t new, the Google Maps/Video mashup of it at bhendrix.com is. Watch the video while an animated Google map maps out the Ferrari’s route through Paris. Awesomes.

Check it out here.

The picture on the left is Keira’s UK promotional material for her 2004 movie King Arthur. The right, from the US promotional material. Apparently here in the US, we don’t approve of flat chests. It doesn’t matter that Keira is an exceptionally hot actress, A cups don’t sell shit here.

Keira’s, as well as many other actresses/models’ breasts, are often digitally enhanced to be bustier and “sexier.” Keira claims magazine publishers in the US ban stars from appearing on their front covers unless they have at least a C-cup size, or are willing to be digitally enhanced to make it appear as if they have.

Oh what a world we live in. (Click on the picture for full-sized digital mammary image)

For all of you horror movie junkies out there, it looks like the Omen might be coming true:

A baby was born on June 6, 2006 in Bristol, England. The newborn boy was named Damien by horror movie fan, Suzanne Cooper. Suzanne was rushed to the hospital on May 31st after suffering back pains. Doctors decided to induce labor immediately. Damien refused to come out, but finally did 6 days later on June 6th. He was born shortly after 6am and weighed in at 6lbs and 6ounces. I’m not making this up!

I’m not really sure what scares me more: the amazing coincidences that led to this birth, or the fact that the couple is using those cicrumstances to foster the story of the birth of the Antichrist.

Freaks.

That’s right ladies and gentlemen, sexy Brad Pitt and distinguished George Clooney will once again grace the big screen together in Ocean’s 13.  Now, come on, that doesn’t even make sense. Ocean’s THIRTEEN?!? See, now Ocean’s 11 made sense: there were eleven people in the crew, and it was a remake of a 1960 movie of the same name. Then Ocean’s 12 came along. Someone please refresh my memory, because I don’t remember another person being added on to the crew. Did Julia Roberts count as a member of the crew this time? Perhaps. Fine, we’ll give that to you. But Ocean’s 13?! Are they going to add yet another crew member just so their “clever” marketing gimmicks work?

I wonder what’s going to happen when it comes time for Ocean’s 42. They’ll have to spend the whole movie just introducing us to each member of the crew.

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished, as the once vital voice of the verisimilitude now venerates what they once vilified. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose vis-à-vis an introduction, and so it is my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.
