4D on the 4th

Posted for your consideration: an oldie but a goodie.



Additionally, please note that Seth McFarlane (The "Family Guy" guy) has a remake of Cosmos in motion with Neil deGrasse Tyson on board. I'm pretty excited about that.

Check out Soul Eater if you haven't already.

My boys got me hooked on Soul Eater via NetFlix. I was doing that parenting thing where you check in with what the kids are doing these days and employ some choice architecture for a subtle course correction. Now we (I) can't stop watching it. It has some of the best bad guys since The Last Air-Bender. It goes from silly to serious; episodic to periods where nothing happens. It tackles adult themes with corny teen-age titles... They swear a bit and work for Lord Death, but that is okay because it is a new Lord Death.


Imagine Gorillaz doing an emo album - and doing it well because that is what they do. We can't stop pressing, "play next episode."

Video Games and Photography and ...

... Sin!
Well, and an 8 year old too, but whatever.
I recommend reading this article from Kill Sceen Magazine. If you read that one and the article about E. T. and BSDM too you can relive the vibe you got when you found someone elses stack of Easyriders, for the first time, as a kid. But anyway, what I am really here to ask is that one of you buy me this book, The Forty-Deuce - or, even better, buy it for yourself and then leave it around for me to find.


I'm pretty sure the Beastie Boys rapped about the area at some point...

N.S.F.T.

Not Safe For Tim.

Although I encourage you to watch them all in order, this one, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles one and the Batman one are not to be missed.

The Cabin in the Woods

Go see this movie now.  Don't read anything else about it.  Go unspoiled. 

It was the best experience I've had in a theater since The Matrix.
