Witness the glory that is “Food Party“. It doesn’t get much stranger and yummy than this

I’ll definitely post more from this show and tell the tales of what turned out to be an insane evening (and early morning) in Downtown Cleve’s, but here’s a taste of some “Everlong”… Unintentional vocal accompaniment by Tim, and if you listen closely, you can pick out someone’s desire to “brush” Dave Grohl’s hair…

NetFlix: More On The Netflix/360 Deal

Thought this was pretty cool out of the set of things coming out of this year’s E3… I don’t have Netflix or an XBOX 360 (yet), but I think the stuff Microsoft is doing to mak the 360 more accessible to the casual gamer as well as the hardcore people is pretty smart…

With the Netflix thing, they’ll suddenly be able to compete with something like an AppleTV, Cable and Satellite On Demand services, and continue to lead in the Online gaming area… Pretty cool…

On a side note, this post is my first through Wordpress 2.6 upgrade and the “Press This” feature, which appears to be the easiest way so far to post from a web page without downloading pics and referencing a bunch of open pages and doing all sorts of copy/paste manuevers…

Repo The Genetic Opera - Theatrical Trailer 2
Repo The Genetic Opera - I’d heard a bit about this a few months back, but now that there’s a trailer… Wow… Looks very cool and creepy. I am not a fan of musicals by any streatch, but how can you go wrong when you’ve got a cast like this… Ogre from Skinny Puppy, Anthony Stewart Head (Giles from Buffy), Paul Sorvino, Sarah Brightman, that girl from the Spy kids movies, etc….. Looks like it’s been bumped back to November and will be limited release (which means no Cleveland I’m sure…). I’ll have to keep an eye out for the DVD…

I was checking out some clips from Mike Patton’s Soundtrack to the short Film “A Perfect Place” (which sounds fantastic by the way… and here’s a review of that album…), and “The Google” led me to this great interview he did with MovieWeb.com. It starts off dealing with the voiceover work Patton did in “I Am Legend” (which I haven’t seen and had no clue he did that…), and then tails into his label, doing soundtracks, past and present plans, and other latest bits of news… Read the full schpeel here…

After almost 80 years, one of the most famous films of German and in fact worldwide cinema may finally be restored! According to reports, the original version of Metropolis was 210 minutes or so long, but was severely cut when it went into worldwide release (by almost 25%).. Apparently a long lost copy from the early 1920’s has been in Buenos Aries all this time in the possesion of film collectors who where unaware of what they had in hand… Shamefully (having studied film in college, and even having taken a ’silent cinema’ class), this is a film I’ve never seen! The article goes on to state how much of the cryptic plot and odd flow of the film has been restored and character development previously confusing now makes sense and the vision and tempo of the original film are brilliant… Read the article for more (it’s just a really cool story…)
