Inception was great, if you haven’t seen it, shame on you.  Anyway, as with all the videos from HISHE you probably need to have seen the film to get all the jokes, so if you haven’t seen Inception switch off your computer, go to the cinema, watch the film and then come back and watch this…Or just watch it anyway I don’t know, you’re here now, may as well.

Go and see Inception. It’s really good.

This is a funny cartoon what I saw on Cartoon Brew, mixing computer animation with…well not really mixing it with anything, it looks like it was all done on computer but it is funny and looks really slick. Check it out

Here’s the weird short film we made for the Edinburgh 48 hour film project. T’was a hoot to make. The only obstacle we ran into was a tall guy with a moustache and a pony tail combo who wouldn’t let us film an old house. A curse on you sir for doing your job so efficiently!

Han Solo P.I

This is a purely personal thing… one of my favourite shows is Magnum P.I and one of my favourite films is Star Wars but to put them together?? Is that too much geek?? I don’t think so… but then I think there’s nothing wrong with white socks and sandals.

This is the most moving piece of animation ever made. Never before have I cared so much about a child’s footware situation. My God I hope he gets shoes. Rest assured when this comes out I will track down a copy and let you know what happens…

Let’s be clear: I hate dancing. It’s stoopid, It makes me tired and most importantly I can’t do it. But there is one type of dance I like, and by using the words ’10 Cartoon Dances’ in the post title I really don’t need to waste any more of our time for the slow reveal of what type of dancing that is. It’s cartoon dancing.

Here are some of the cartoon people dancing that make me Mr gigglyface…

sherlock and watson go to the toilet wherever they damned well please

Very soon they will be releasing the Guy Ritchie (boo) directed Sherlock Holmes (yay) film starring Robert Downey Jr (yay) and Rachel McAdams (yay), with Jude Law (booyay!?) on DVD.  I have not seen that film, mainly because it doesn’t have any dinosaurs in it (as is my want).

I’m sure you are all in the same position as me; you like Holmes and you all like dinosaurs, but can’t find a place where these two passions meet. Until now. Ladies and gentlemen let me introduce you to this film, available on DVD now in shops and other places. It is called ‘Sherlock Holmes’. There are dragons and ‘cyber-men’ and dinosaurs… but it all starts with a simple GIANT OCTOPUS ATTACK!!!!!!!

Spoilers within…

Creator of Star Trek and therefore one of my all time heroes Gene Roddenberry finally gets a documentary. To add to the intrigue it is made by his son, so it has that human touch of a child discovering his dad through others. Or Something. Shut up it’s Star Trek!

Iron man 2 looks good

If this actually happened in Iron Man 2, then it would be on track to be the best film ever.

I’ve been marvelling much at a book I bought this week ‘10,000 Years of Art’, a mind-bogglingly long time I’ve been thinking (5 times as long as between Jesus and me in fact). But this has been put into sharper perspective by the latest ‘Where is Werner’ update… He is making a documentary about the earliest known some of the earliest known pictures anywhere; Chauvet cave in France. Using the latest cutting edge technology to bring us closer to the oldest art than we can ever get (the cave is shut to the public but Herzog ‘talked his way in’).

But the man has the imagination and power to make 32,000 years jump before your eyes like a cut between scenes- check here (around 5 minutes in) when he’s talking about how he thinks the paintings would flicker cinematically on the wall in firelight and then swings time to Swing Time circa 1938 when Fred Astaire achieved equally mysterious greatness when dancing with his shadows. (Read this for Herzog on Swing Time);

Then watch THIS for more from Herzog on 3D! Fascinating stuff. (If I sound like I’m obsessed with Herzog, its because I am).

Splice is nice

Looking forward to this creepy monster film starring Adrien Brody and some wierd rabbit/human hybrid (i’m referring to the monster, not his co-star Sarah Polley, who is lovley). Splice:

Nature is monstrous, shit is insignifikant, we are all alone, searching for truth. It has to be Herzog. Even though he didn’t write or direct, this short film is clearly influenced by the great man and has his wonderful hypnotic teutonic narration. It’s part of a series designed to explore possible future scenarios for the world. More in today’s Guardian.
