Protective Cover


...it's about "Condoms", right?
The Beast has Beat the (little) Man!


I wonder how many times the commentator says "Little People"?
Wtf?

30 Days of Night
...is finally out here today! Nice. Just in time for Halloween!!! (eep!)



...I'm really feelin' this flick (if the trailer's anything to go by...).
The mood and tone feels almost exactly like Templesmith's art...
...and I'm sooo hoping they didn't stray too far from the pacing (and everything else!) of Steve Niles' garphic novel...

This amused me immensely! Hours and hours of fun!!!
Thanks Aa.

Happy Halloween everyone!!!

...and also, today marks the release of...
Hellgate: London


The latest offering from Flagship Studios is an RPGslashFPS...
RPG's ain't really my thing (too much thinking), and it does say "first-person-shooter", but the gameplay trailer looks like "third"...(maybe you can switch it up).

The trailer above is looking pretty sweet though, so I might be talked into it....

Cool Guys Wear Black.

Adidas x Darth Vader


Totally geekin'-out on these Darth Vader kicks! Black-on-black, golden detailing goodness? Nice!
As part of Adidas' consortium series, this "Force Pack" commemorates the 30th anniversary of Star Wars, and is dropping real soon I hear...
Cool guys wear black!...and little green dudes wear, um..."plain-jane beige"...

"Yoda" Superstars


Seriously, evil dudes always look cooler! C'mon, even whingyass-farm-boy Luke was only really cool when he was 'back in black sans hand...
So, geeks (I'm one of them) can be 'street' too...(please leave your replica lightsabers at home...).

MarvNote:Ok, this, quite possibly, is gonna be one of those "a-little-too-much-information-Marv" posts... So feel free to stop reading...now.



I thought I may have had my first little bout of the dreaded Manila-Quick-Stomach* last night...(which is not bad considering I've been here a year...)...I was feeling a bit "blech", and also had a mini-bile-age come up as I was "Orange Boxin"...(<--ok now that, was too much information...)
...but thank J.H.C., it was a false alarm!...I think...
*a.k.a. Bali-Belly, a.k.a. Hershey-Squirts, a.k.a. Juicy-Poops...
"the Ten Commandments"

Is finally out...in C.G.!!!...well, barely...(I could do this shite on my laptop!).
I "Twitteranted" about this a while back when I first saw the trailer...and seriously, this is the reason I'm a lot 'meh' about Cg anim...(I mean, really!...compare this to "Prince of Egypt". Hey?)
*anger...rising...grrrr*
I say, let's get it on with the "2D Rennaissance"!!! Let's go!!!



Check out the "Sizzle Reel" (whatever that means) here. (...Elliot Gould as the voice of "God"??)

[Marvlove Note to God:...before you strike me down with some "Thunder&Lightning" action...I mean the animation, not the story...don't hurt me... ]

...really, i would rather watch a feature length version of Lido the Lion...


...well,...almost...

Monday

"There Can Be Only One..."
How To Eat M&M's --Craiglist
Lately, I've been jonesin' for Twinkies like you wouldn't believe...
...I have no explanation for this sudden craving for the magically-delicious-cream-filled-golden-sponge-cake-goodness!!! *Homer-drooling-huaaauurgh*


Fried. Twinkie.

...and I've only just heard of the "Deep-Fried Twinkie" [wiki]...I know, I know...where the hell have I been???..."Arkansas State Fair", here I come!!!
There are some words that seemingly don't (shouldn't) go together...but the end result is magic!
i.e.: spreadable + marshmallow, popcorn + shrimp, Britney + K-Fed...

P.s. Fried Oreo Recipe
The Back Up!

...but wait!...do we get a free set of "Steak-knives"???

*thanks Aa.

Web 2.0???



...sign me up!
Southland Tales...finally!

Richard Kelly's (Donnie Darko) Sci-fi/drama "Southland Tales" [wiki] is finally coming out in a few weeks!...after being stuck in "distribution hell"...

After it premiered in Cannes in '06 to less-than-flattering reviews (the dreaded "sophomore-jinx"? Man, I hope not...), Sony picked it up, and in exchange for Kelly cutting the crap out of it (well, 160 minutes does sound a little much) and re-editing, he received extra funding more vfx shots.
I wonder if the 'Director's Cut', will be better...( like "Darko"...). Well, we'll see...

* If it were me, I just would have just done a feature version of:
"Darkomentary"
Part 1


Part 2

Giant. Pink. Bunny.


...works much better without an explanation.

Yup! It's Friday!...and you know what that means...time to lose yourselves in those big, blue eyes...

...ok, so that wasn't as good as "..Feelings" (but really, what could possibly top that???), so here's a little bonus...

AWW CRAP!!! I think I might've missed out on the much (I think, well deserved)-hyped "Jason" hoody!!!...might have to hit up Karmaloop...
...and just in time for Halloween!
I'm feeling the mash-up vibe on the details...
Detachable Jason Mask? Check. Freddy Krueger stripes? Check. Texas-chainsaws? Check. CHECK!...*actual chainsaws, optional.
Very limited, and priced nice at about a 'hunge' (not like the over-hyped Bape "Tiger" hoodies...f**kers.).

So if you missed out on last year's "Dead Serious" hoody...
...don't sleep on these!
After months of waiting (or at least, it felt like months...), I finally copped this sick tee (thanks to the kind folk at G1xSocial for the hook-up!).
This glow-in-the-dark Greyone x LaCokaNostra tee is off the chain!

...too bad I don't go out at night anymore...Oh well, I guess I can wear it while sitting in the dark playing Portal...*sigh*
Let's start Friday off right!
Beat Street!

...you've seen Scorcese's "Sesame's Streets..."

Now peep a scene from:
Scorcese's "Casino" (...um...'Streets?... )
*Warning: the F word is uttered...well, in my opinion, just the right amount of times...

"Soapy the Germ Fighter"
Indeed! "Washing is for girly-boys!"...well said, Billy, you dirty lil' bastard!



...and kids? If a giant bar of soap (or the like) ever tell you to "lay back and shut you eyes" and offer to wash your dirty bits...kick 'em in the nuts. Hard.

From J.K. rowling's recent admission that "The 'Dore's into Dudez" (yes, I'm sure that's verbatim...) comes:
DUMBLEDORE PRIDE!

"Over 7,000 already sold!"
...wish they came in black...

Tuesday

So...bask in this!

*Also, heaps of great Halloween ideas in this vid...

The latest from Original Fake, limited to 500 pcs. went up on sale a few weeks back (via a convoluted lottery type system: for the ridiculous full instructions click the link)...so you're probably gonna have to slap down a mint on eBay.
...can someone get this, and ask me to come over so I can look at it?...and maybe gently caress it's shiny head...
...square bubbles??...



*...I'm thinkin' I kinda look a bit like Frosty...only handsomer (...and more be-jewelled). I shall be 'evil Frosty'...

OH FOR F*CK'S SAKE! Talk about 'puking up your own feet'...Grrrr...
