dogfight for zune

Here’s a pretty great animated advertisement for Microsoft’s Zune (that’s a music player thing) called “Dogfight”. It was done by a company called FullTank. (Here’s interview with them about the Zune Arts Films.)

I wish it was an ad for a new game on XBox because I would buy it tomorrow. Nice work.

Nam Hyun Joon

Nam Hyun Joon (aka Poppin’ Hyun Joon) is a dancin’, poppin’, body-rockin’ Korean maniac. This video is just one of many the proves he is fantastic.

I never like Offspring before.
While writing this post, I thought I would link back to another post I wrote about a brilliant “popper” called David Elsewhere. But, as has happened […]

elsewhere

In 2001 a skinny, nerdy, curly haired white boy took the stage at a yearly dance event called Kollaboration. He followed a fairly averagely talented asian kid on stage who had a done a pretty good job of working the crowd. David Bernal nervously got started on his routine. He shuffled around a bit, pumped […]

Daft Punk’s video for their song “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger” is…

die hardest

Die Hard recently got voted the best action movie of all time. I agree. Die hard “With A Vengeance”? Not so much. Bruce Willis is still one cool dude even though he is getting old and Ashton Kutcher is fucking his wife.
Some guys from Guyz Nite made the best tribute song and video ever. You […]

britain’s got talent

Britain’s Got Talent is Simon Cowell and company’s American Idol for Britain. Of course, “British” Idol would have been a good name, but this show bills itself as “any age, any talent” so I guess it is a bit different. In any case, the face below is Simon Cowell in stunned silence.

Wanna know why? Well […]

hands held high

Linkin Park’s new album, Minutes To Midnight, is mixed bag. There are a few tracks I really like, and a few that I instantly skip. For whatever reason I actually like their rapping songs, and was immediately hooked in by their SNL performance of Bleed It Out (unfortunately not on youtube, but here is a […]

back

God I love surprising, funny cover songs on guitar. I really do. This gem from Jonathan Coulton is so good I won’t ruin it by telling you what it is in advance. Just watch.

imogen heap

Imogen Heap, lead singer from Frou Frou (very popular track Let Go was the anthem song from Garden State), performed live and solo with some electronic equipment on a radio show in September. (Studio 11 for Indie 103.1FM) This performance is absolutely stunning. I haven’t seen this much talent in one person since Thom Yorke. […]

Weng Weng is a 2′ 9″ Phillipino martial artist midget who played Agent 00 in what appears to be a series of hilarious movies. The Chuds put together a brilliant rap song and edited video about the little guy. Wend Weng Rap is one of the best things you’ll watch all week.
“…he got a razorblade […]
