A quote...

"The reason Memento worked for audiences is that it was a tremendously emotional film. Which had nothing to do with me. It was all Guy. This genius actor comes into my film-noir maze and is playing it for real. And in playing the truth of that, he opened it up for the audience. It never would have succeeded otherwise."

That's from (in case you didn't guess) Christopher Nolan and although I think he's also a genius in his own right, he's spot on there...

Shady URL...

The site says "Don't just shorten your URL, make it suspicious and frightening."
What a brilliant idea that is! :)
Go on, try it, you know you want to!

And don't forget to bookmark the present website: http://5z8.info/foodporn_w2t1_launchexe
:D

Swede Mason.

This is utterly brilliant.



Reminiscent of Lasse Gjertsen's work...

More here... He doesn't miss a beat indeed...

I've also watched Jungle All The Way and GimmebackMason and they're a lot of fun as well...

Sans rapport...

"Mickey Maousse", c'est pas mal comme nom d'acteur porno...
C'est con mais ca me fait rire.

Joie.

Des fois je hais l'informatique. L'informatique refletant la connerie propre, il en resulte que des fois, je me hais.

Quote.

"It is not our job to parent the child or determine what content is acceptable or unacceptable for our players. But on the other hand, it is not your job to dictate what content we include or don't include in our games. Game development is not a collaborative effort between developers and gamers; it is a dictatorship, where we alone determine what content goes into our game. You the player make the choice whether that content is acceptable to you (and/or your family) or not."
Stanley Woo - Bioware.
(as seen on Kotaku)

I find that this works very well on movies and music...
Reminds me of concepts (thrown around by disappointed fans usually) like "commercial", "selling out", etc.
At the end of the day, it's still a choice, whether you like it or not.

Something I like...

Even after all these years, I still can't help but smile when I see those packs of cereals with "BITES" written in huge letters on them (sometimes even enhanced with a "Chunky" or similar)... Some jokes never get old...

If you don't know French (and therefore don't know what I'm talking about), there's always Google Translate for knowing how "bites" translates from French to English...

Personnal April's fools round up.

This year's april fool's jokes I have enjoyed:

It's naughty to joke about games' reklease dates, especially when said games are late...

Assassin Creed is moving in a new direction...

Team Fortress 2 upgrades the sniper unit with a nice "recycling" feature.

Blizzard takes this April fool's business VERY seriously. A new "Transformer" unit in StarCraft 2, a new class in Diablo 3 (the Archivist that dies with a simple touch) and a dance battle system in WoW. I wish they would actually implement that...

Since all of this comes from Kotaku, I might as well include their own round up.
(but I'd like to add I spotted those as they got posted... ;)

Google made 1 announcement that looks fishy as well, actually... More from Google here. The Pandatastic IA CADIE is just brilliant. And 3d Chrome is not bad either... :)

Since I follow the release of upcoming WiiWare title Swords & Soldiers, I had a good laugh at their April 1st announcement... Space marines when everyone would expect ninjas? Naaaaa!

Nine Inch Nails release a new free paying record! Between the cover, the desciption and the tracklist, there's a lot to enjoy here... :D

Warner Bros bought The Pirate Bay!

Brittish newspaper The Guardian ran an article saying that they would now only publish news on Twitter. And they also made a Twitter feed!

And Seti@Home reported they received an alien message. I couldn't listen to it (it was sent to subscibers) but I'm guessing it was interesting...

Great year, all in all...
I like seeing people going crazy like that...

Music!

That might fit in my other blog, but it's borderline...

The following site transforms any text in music: P22 Music Text Composition Generator

Great fun, I tried to put Matrix Reloaded's Architect speech in it, at 960bpm, using an overdriven guitar sound, it rocks! In a very experimental way, of course... :)

The next one transforms your keyboard in a drumbox (and flashes subliminal patterns in front of your eyes as you drum along). Kitsch!

Something I learned today...

Scrubs' Dr. Cox is in Point Break!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fh0KcpYeMVQ

IMDB tells me he's in Se7en and The Rock as well... I find it funny to discover familiar faces looking back at movies...
It reminds me when I watched Jurassic Park all those years later and saw Samuel L Jackson...

Songsmith.

Songsmith is a Microsoft tool that generates music over a voice track.
People obviously thought about putting proper singing on it and it gives...

...this:



This is f#cking hilarious.

Wazza 8 years later...

I know it's a bit late for this (I was busy finishing Grid), but still it's good fun...

NES quotes.

As I was reading through Kotaku, I found this.

http://sydlexia.com/nesquotes1.htm

The 50 best quotes out of NES games. Being a SEGA boy in my early gaming days (I was the proud owner of an SMS), I haven't actually played any of these games.
Still it sends me back to those gaming days, as SMS & NES had similar games after all...

And also the comments are hilarious.
Check it out.

Ping Nunchuk Pong!

And who else than Bruce Lee to do such a thing?
It's obviously fake, but it's pretty damn cool!



I got that from Ain't it cool.
