Hi! Apologies for the lack of posts around these parts recently, but hey, you should see my bathroom. Maybe I should flush once in a while. Here’s a great little stop motion animation for Turin Breaks song Sea change. I was quite moved when ‘corporal crouch-with-the-pistol-and-shorts’ died, but now I’ve said too much…
So it emerged today that Mel Gibson has been an abusive partner or at least very drunk and shouty one. After apparently becoming so scared of Gibson’s abusive rants, ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva was driven to tape record his most recent - and disgusting - outburst.
But I’m not sure what all the fuss is about, I mean, surely we’ve all had too many strawberry dacquiries from time to time and become a bit…emotional? No?! Oh…well in that case I should probably untie my wife and let her out of the basement.
Anyway, judge for yourself. Here’s the infamous rant in all it’s slurred and incomprehensible glory care of MediocreFilms:

It’s wonderful, horrible, stunning, nuts, hilarious, crude, and the comedy timing is flawless. If this was a woman I’d marry it. As it is, it’s just a cartoon so I can only watch it. ‘Uncle Grandpa’ by Peter Browngardt. I look forward to seeing more of this kind of shenaniganary…
Thanks to cartoon brew. We love you.
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!

A live tour of monsters and music from Dr Who, complete with newly shot footage has made me have to change my trousers. Twice. Tickets go on sale tomorrow, as this countdown widget subtly shows…
Thanks to Nicola for the heads up.
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…
This award winning short animation will screw with your mind man!! Backwards is the thing, and watch out for the twisty nutsy ending… which is the start of it…but at the end…
Many weeks ago I found myself craving the familiar and upbeat tones of Ray Park Jr’s ‘Ghostbusters’. Nothing unusual there I hear myself say. 4 weeks later, and I have been watching as many versions of the song as I can FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER. It almost broke my intimate and life long relationship with the whole franchise. Especially the irritating vintage console versions of which I’ve heard so very many. I really don’t know why. I think I’ve used the internet to stalk a song.
But don’t fear, dear reader, as I have come through that dark obsessive patch a better person, and offer you some of the better findings that I ever managed to find… including electricity, children, a dead popman and a girl with whom I have fallen in love with and married in my dreams…
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:
I strongly recommend everyone check out the really amazing flash animation by artiste Fotoshop over on newgrounds in which you can slide a scale and see the size of things from the universe itself down to quantum particles, seeing various objects on the way, from stars to humans to rubicks cubes (both solved and unsolved). Not, however, my wang.
I also strongly recommend that I never post a post that mentions my ’wang’ ever again. Hi mum! (Also people who ‘know’ me know that anything makes my wang look small. Stop writing now? Yes please).
Plants seem to exist in the moral vacuum of existential necessity. Or whatever. I hate plants. If you have 13 odd minutes care to use your eyeballs at the below animation featuring the voice of Whoopi Goldberg. It’s pretty cool, but sad. Like life… only we’re better than plants because we can enjoy the works of Nicholas Cage. Take that plants!!

After downloading the Star Trek LCARS screen saver from here, which is great, I found myself transfixed by my inert laptop whilst it displayed the beautiful designs that helped Michael Okuda win Nasa awards and shit. Turns out that after the whole moon landing nonsense they’re giving awards out to anyone. (Joke). I was reminded of this youtube video of a man who can control his house using the LCARS system (for you non-trekkies LCARS= touchy display). I forgot how creepy this video is. Maybe it’s just me… (Heavy panting begins) ….
I read about this documentary called ‘The Cove’ then I waited (roughly) 30 minutes until I read it again. It may be one of the most bizzare things I’ve ever read twice in 30 minutes. I have not seen the film, but i really need to. I think you need to see it as well. That way I didn’t just make it up and I’m not crazy…
A lagoon off The Japanese town of Taiji is used as a dolphin meat-market
The film is about the guy who trained the original dolphin that played Flipper. He leads a team bent on exposing the hidden dolphin trade which is a world wide thing which involves us in the ‘West’ getting the dolphins that are good at jumping through hoops and look pretty, while the rest get mashed up into paste.
Why?
