Doin’ a project for work that involves a many tentacled creature and made me think of this vid. If you haven’t watched it before, take a moment. Pretty wild.
Nice 3D work. Recognize that song? (via NordfischBaby)
Discovery Channel used a less-cloying version of the Boom De Ya Da / I Love The World song last year and had their show’s personalities chime in, too. The Myth Busters snippet made me smile even more than the big german lug above. Also, the tagline is … wait for it … awesome.
Gabe Askew is the artist and fan behind this unofficial video for Gizzly Bear‘s Two Weeks. Seems pretty damn official to me. Took him just a few months using 3dsmax, Vray, and After Effects. Wonderful stuff
Here’s the official video (cool, albeit a little unsettling).
Over 1500 hours of video and photography went into this music video for rockin’ Swedish duo, Rymdreglage. Not sure how many Lego pieces. Either way, this is fantastically impressive.
Be sure to check out the band’s site. They’ve got lots of MP3s to download and some seriously oddball eye-candy. (via Laughing Squid)
Oh my … Our favorite bit from It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia is getting a stage adaptation and coming to a city possibly near you. If you haven’t seen this skit, watch the episode (Season 4, Ep.13). Awesome.

Can anyone translate the details of this? Does peeing with the shower running save more water than flushing the toilet? I would think, to make the case, you’d have to multitask. Like shampooing while you pee. Otherwise you’re just standing there, wasting water. You could just pee into the drain without the shower on at all. I’ll just stick to the tree in the backyard.
(Thanks, Mel!)
This lil’ gem rocked the festivals in ’06. The theaters in ’08. Now, finally, your DVD player.
