"The Old Friend" by Le Jean Bershad →
This YouTube filter that turns everything into The Artist is kind of awesome.
The framing is off, but this sketch I did a while back works surprisingly well as a silent movie. I had to change the ending to work better for ol’ timey audiences.

“Oh I get it, Gotye is Belgian for Beck”
– GOTYE (via ryanxilliams)
Wow, that song does sound ridiculously like a Beck song.
That video is kind of awesome.
I like Gotye’s apparent obsession with stop motion. Ambivalent with his obsession with being nude.

So today I had the most awkward, strange, and slightly horrifying run-in with a guy while walking to the dining hall. This is how the exchange went.
Me, walking along, excited about getting pierogis for lunch. Boy walks up to me and stops me.
Boy: I just wanted to say that you are absolutely…

Children of the moon, today we’re going to learn about the day human civilization on earth ended. It was February 26th, 2012 and the people of earth had settled in to watch a celebration of a form of entertainment called movies. Little did they know that the Mayan God Quetzalcoatl decided to usher…

Seriously, what the fuck happened on Eastbound and Down tonight? It’s never been a super realistic cartoon but that was something else.
I loved last week’s premiere. A little worried now.

Despite not getting a nomination for Best Original Score, the Academy sure is using Moneyball’s soundtrack a lot tonight.
So true. As much as I think it aped FNL, that still was a truly great score.

Not to turn an appreciation of something cool into a lame plug, but that video essay reminds me just how excited I am for TKM to come out. Anna and I wrote some crazy shit in those scripts and the insanely talented crew is actually making them come to life.
So, so excited.
WatchThe Press Play series of video essays are easily some of my favorite pieces of film criticism currently going around and their new two-parter on horror make up throughout the years (combined into one video in the Vimeo embed) is especially up my alley.
It also reminded me of one of the most insane facts in movie history; Rob Bottin was 23 when he designed the effects for The Thing, still, in my...

I think I’ve written about it on my this site before, but my worst ever fear is being creepy. I imagine a lot of guys have experienced that first time you’re casually walking down the street late at night and you notice that a woman has changed sides of the road or sped up so you’re not walking behind her. It’s horrifying! How could she be afraid of me? Of me?!
Because of...

Hey Rihanna,
My name’s Steve Cronin, I’m a comic living in New York City. I’m not sure if this is true, but I’ve read online that you might be getting back together with Chris Brown. This is going to sound crazy, but… and I’m using bold font so you know it’s important… …

Part of me thinks it’s too soon to be writing about this because I don’t think I’ve completely processed how I feel, but I also think maybe this has happened to other women and I should talk about it in as raw a way as possible. I’m still really embarrassed and ashamed and garbled…

I dreamt last night that an old friend of mine died and we were all really sad. Then we discovered she left behind a secret diary and I became genuinely pissed when it was revealed she never mentioned me in it. I’m walking around grumbling, “Come on! What’s her problem? We totally hooked up a bunch of times!”
My subconscious exists somewhere in the hazy area between Twin...
