Trekkies Bash New Star Trek Film As 'Fun, Watchable'

I promise I'll start posting my actual thoughts/comments on stuff soon, as opposed to just recycling humor from the internet.*

Criterion (Cover) Wishlist

Folks over at The Auteurs forums came up with a bunch of cool phoney Criterion Collection DVD covers. Some are for movies that might pop up on Criterion's list, others not so much.

This Guy's Stuff Is Great

The Deer Hunter, originally uploaded by Olly Moss.

Ran across it on some other blog I think. The guy makes new posters for old movies. They're all really minimal, mostly just using red and black. If you look at the rest of his flickr he's got a bunch of alternate video game covers too.

In a similar vein, this guy made a bunch of phony movie novelization covers. Worth checking out too.

Here Are Some Shots of My Friend Will

Hi there.

I've never really kept a journal, and I've never been really comfortable talking about myself, so for my first post at least I thought I'd take the time to talk about someone far more interesting than myself. Namely, a chap named Karl Pilkington.

For those not in the know, Ricky Gervais, creator, writer, and star of BBC's The Office, has hosted a series of on-again off-again podcasts over the past couple of years with fellow Office creator Stephen Merchant, and a particularly peculiar Mancunian by the name of Karl Pilkington. 

Now by all accounts Karl is an amazingly stupid individual. I mean this is a man who thinks that jellyfish should be wiped out because they don't have eyes, and that But what makes him such a great engaging radio personality is that he has an answer for everything. It's not just that he's an imbecile, but it's like his mind works on a different wave length–like he's got a great mind for absorbing information, but once he starts interpreting it everything goes a bit mental.

Here are some highlights:

Gervais claims Karl's the funniest man he's ever met. I'm inclined to agree. A popular featuer to the early podcasts was something called "Monkey News," which was, well, exactly what it sounds like. Karl would "research" a story about monkeys and then report on it to Ricky and Steve, much to their amusement, confusion, and sometimes anger.
