Slim Booth Babe

Technology, Video, , ,

“Spotted at the International Stationery and Office Supply Fair, this eye-catching digital signage system consists of a 0.3-millimeter-thick high-luminance rear-projection film (Vikuiti Rear Projection Film developed by 3M) applied to a 3-millimeter-thick glass substrate cut into the shape of a woman.”  In other words, it is a virtual person, a technology I see heading in the wrong direction, especially under these circumstances.  I do not want to see booth babes turning into flat-chested monitor projections!

Hilarity, Movies, Television, Video, , , ,

Bruno reads the Top Ten List on The Late Show with David Letterman.  Topic: Top Ten Reasons To See The New Movie ‘Bruno.’

If you enjoy this video (read: find it funny, entertaining, crazy-insane) you will surely enjoy the movie ‘Bruno.’  The movie is outrageous, and yes, highly homosexual.  However, it is very funny and worth a one-time viewing.

Check after the break for a recent interview between Letterman and the actor Sacha Baron Cohen (who interviews OUT of character for a change).  He talks about how he tracked down and ended up interviewing a real terrorist for the film. Continue reading Bruno reads Top Ten List →

“Two students at London’s Kingston University pulled off a mesmerizing synchronized printing routine with a stable of HP printers.”  Keep in mind, they were “just one spool error away from a blinding fit of rage.”

“Present an idea which promotes HP Workstations ability to bring to life anything the creative mind can conceive.”  Filmed, edited and directed by Matt Robinson and Tom Wrigglesworth.

Check out this awesome Parry Gripp music video featuring Kevin Pereira on the drums and Olivia Munn as “The Girl at the Video Game Store.”  Put together brilliantly and very catchy.  Directed by G4’s Mike Shaw.

Also, be sure to check out this scene from the 1000th episode.  One of the funnier scenes from the night.

One more thing…check out this online exclusive: The Beauty Behind Attack of the Show.  Cast interviews (including Kevin, Olivia, Blair Herder, Alison Haislip & Chris Hardwick), very funny.

Very last thing…another online exclusive: Behind the Scenes of The Alan Thicke Kiss w/ Olivia Munn.

FOD: The Beatles Were Terrifying

Hilarity, Video, , ,

Watch first!  Then, my favorite lines below…

“Which Beatle do you find the scariest?” .. “Paul, Paul is the scariest.” .. “Paul’s scary in a Hollywood movie type of way.  John, he’s scary in a deep and psychlogical way!”  OR

“Once upon a time we were afraid of ghosts…we made Casper the Friendly Ghost.  Once upon a time we were afraid of vampires…we made Count Chocula.  When we were afraid of The Beatles…we made The Monkeys.”  HA!
