Review of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace

The embedded above is part 2 of the exhaustive review, but the first 2 minutes pretty much sum my feelings up.

At 1:40, In regards to the opening shot of “Episode IV” (the original Star Wars:)

In fact this is so genius I have the feeling George Lucas had nothing to do with it and probably fought against putting it in the movie.

Another great point

Empire of the Sun - Walking on a Dream

Catchy song, but one of the greatest album covers of all time.

A not-so-brief chat with Randall Stephenson of AT&T

An epic smackdown by Fake Steve:

when the stars align, and the hardware is great and the ecosystem is great and the apps are great and the whole experience is great, and everything you do just makes everything else better, and you’re totally on a roll and can do no wrong — when that happens, you do not go out and try to fuck it all up by discouraging people who love your product. What you do, instead, is you fix your fucking shitty ass network you fucking shit-eating-grin-wearing hillbilly ass clown!

2-year old + “Two Weeks”

GTFO! No I’m serious! Leave the fuckin Earth!

Description says: Andrew is ‘playing’ along to ‘Two Weeks’. He taught himself ‘the lyrics’ and ‘the parts’ he’s playing … this really blows my mind since he just turned 3. I did not teach him anything, not directly, he’s only observed me (his dad) boppin’ to it in the car & stuff. Andrew is obsessed with Veckatimest, Grizzly Bear’s new album.

This is going to be hilarious:
azizisbored:

Dave Sitek and I are working on a mixtape together. That’s all we’re saying for now, but if everything we have in mind comes together, I can promise three things:
1. Y’all ain’t ready.
2. Motherfuckers need to know.
3. Get yo’ shit.
Ok, you can read a little more info at Pitchfork…

Google Goggles - Use pictures to search the web

This is amazing.  Scanned a PBR can sitting on my table and it searched the web for it, came back with a picture of the logo, and did a web search for “Pabst Blue Ribbon.”  So cool.
