The Pusher Trilogy - trailer
I really liked Bronson, and Drive is easily one of the best movies I've seen in a while - so now I'm making an effort to see the Danish films of director Nicolas Winding Refn and the Pusher Trilogy is at the top of my list.

Anarchy Reigns - TGS trailer
I had never heard of this before, but it looks pretty sweet considering most of these multiplayer brawler type games are either really wacky, Japanese only, or terrible.

I don't really know anything about Persona, but it reminds me a lot of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

3rd Strike Ultimate Compilation
Thirteen years of 3s highlights compiled into 40 minutes! These videos do a good job of showing each particular character's strengths (especially the characters with very specific goals like Oro, Remy, and Necro), and how a clutch parry can really turn the tides for almost every character.

These three tracks are my current favorites over at The Hood Internet. Basically their formula is to take the beat of one song and mix it with the lyrics of another song.

Kris and Scott's Scott and Kris Show
The previous Kris and Scott show, Blamimation, was hilarious so I'm glad that they're back in some fashion. Scott Kurtz cracks me up. Probably because fat equals funny.....and Scott Kurtz is FAT.

The Films of Terrence Malick
The Films of Terrence Malick (MOMI, May 13-15) from Matt Zoller Seitz on Vimeo.
In preparation of seeing The Tree of Life next month, I've been re-watching Terrence Malick's previous films (there are only 4). His movies are definitely not for everyone, and I'm eager to hear people's reactions to Tree of Life since average movie-goers might actually go see it (thank you Brad Pitt).
Straw Dogs (Remake) - trailer
Looks like an exact remake, except that James Marsden is no Dustin Hoffman.

The Office: A Look Back at the Wise Words of Michael Scott
Saw this on BuddyTV and had to post it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tonight marks Steve Carell's last episode of The Office. (Nooooo!)
Today, we take a look back at some of Michael Scott's most vital life lessons from his tenure at Dunder Mifflin. So grab your "World's Best Boss" mug, put on a little "Lazy Scranton," and read them. Learn them. Live them.
On Women:
In my opinion the third date is traditionally the one where.. you have sex. Does Holly feel that way? I don't know. I will probably find out tonight. If she starts having sex with me I'll know for sure.
Any man who says he totally understands women is a fool. Because they are un-understandable. There's a wishing fountain at the mall. And I threw a coin in for every woman in the world and made a wish. I wished for Jan to get over me. I wished for Phyllis a plasma TV. I wished for Pam to gain courage. I wished for Angela a heart, and for Kelly a brain. "Michael, how can you appreciate women so much but also dump one of them?" You mean, how can I be so illogical and flighty and unpredictable and emotional? Well, maybe I learned something from women after all.
On Toby:
Toby is in HR, which technically means he works for corporate, so he's really not a part of our family. Also, he's divorced, so he's really not a part of his family.
Why are you the way that you are? Honestly, every time I try to do something fun or exciting, you make it not... that way. I hate... so much about the things that you choose to be.
On Technology:
When I said that I was king of forwards, you've got to understand that I don't come up with this stuff. I just forward it along. You wouldn't arrest a guy who was just passing drugs from one guy to another."
Yes. It is true. I, Michael Scott, am signing up with an online dating service. Thousands of people have done it, and I am going to do it. I need a username, and I have a great one. "Little Kid Lover." That way people will know exactly where my priorities are at.
Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject, so you know you are getting the best possible information.
Everyone always wants new things. Everybody likes new inventions, new technology. People will never be replaced by machines. In the end, life and business are about human connections. And computers are about trying to murder you in a lake. And to me the choice is easy.
On Treating Yourself:
I enjoy having breakfast in bed. I like waking up to the smell of bacon, sue me. And since I don't have a butler, I have to do it myself. So, most nights before I go to bed, I will lay six strips of bacon out on my George Foreman grill. Then I go to sleep. When I wake up, I plug in the grill. I go back to sleep again. Then I wake up to the smell of crackling bacon. It is delicious, it's good for me, it's the perfect way to start the day.
On Being the Boss:
Sometimes you have to take a break from being the kind of boss that's always trying to teach people things. Sometimes you just have to be the boss of dancing.
On Reverse Psychology:
Reverse psychology is an awesome tool, I don't know if you guys know about it, but basically you can make someone think the opposite of what you believe, and that tricks them into doing something stupid. Works like a charm.
On Loyalty:
I was shocked when he told me he was transferring to Stamford. It's like with fireman: You don't leave your brothers behind. Even if you find out that there is a better fire in Connecticut.
Fool me once, strike one. But fool me twice... strike three.
On Medicine:
In the medicine community, "negative" means good. Which makes absolutely no sense.
Last week I would've given a kidney to anyone in this office. I would've reached right into my stomach and pulled it out for them. But now, no. I don't have the relationship with these people that I thought I did. I hope they ask, so they can hear me say, "Uh, no, I only give my organs to my real friends. Go get yourself a monkey kidney."
On Money:
I... DECLARE... BANKRUPTCY!
On Drugs:
This year, more people will use cocaine than will read a book to their children.
On Love:
I don't want somebody sucking up to me because they think I am going to help their career. I want them sucking up to me because they genuinely love me.
Do I want to be feared or loved? That's a good question. I want both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me.
You spend your whole life trying to get people to like you and then you run over one person with your car - not even one of the popular ones - and everybody gets on your case. Doesn't make any sense.
Do I need to be liked? Absolutely not. I like to be liked. I enjoy being liked. I have to be liked. But it's not like a compulsive need to be liked. Like my need to be praised.
Presents are the best way to show someone how much you care. It is like this tangible thing that you can point to and say, "Hey man, I love you this many dollars-worth."
On Winning:
You need to play to win. But you also need to win... to play.
I told Dwight that there is honor in losing. Which we all know is completely ridiculous.
On Jokes:
I love inside jokes. I hope to be a part of one some day.
Jim, you're 6'11 and you weigh 90 pounds, Gumby has a better body than you. Boom. Roasted. Dwight, you're a kiss-ass. Boom. Roasted. Pam, you failed art school. Boom. Roasted. Meredith, you've slept with so many guys you're starting to look like one. Boom. Roasted. Kevin, I can't decide between a fat joke and a dumb joke. Boom. Roasted. Creed, your teeth called, your breath stinks. Boom. Roasted. Angela where's Angela? Whoa there you are, I didn't see you there behind that grain of rice. Boom. Roasted. Stanley, you crush your wife during sex and your heart sucks. Boom. Roasted. Oscar, you're gay. ... Andy, Cornell called, they think you suck. And you're gayer than Oscar. Boom. Roasted. Alright. Alright everybody, you know I kid, you know I kid. You guys are the reason I went into the paper business, so, uh, goodnight, God bless, God bless America, and get home safe.
On Babies:
I love babies. I think they are beautiful in all sorts of different ways. I try to pick up and hold a baby every day, if possible, because it nourishes me. It feeds my soul. Babies are drawn to me. And I think it's because they see me as one of them. But ... cooler and with my life put together a little bit more. If a baby were president, there would be no taxes. There would be no war. There would be no ... government, and ... things could get terrible. And actually probably it would be a better screenplay idea than a serious suggestion.
On History:
Corporate has made it my responsibility today to put an end to 10,000 years of being weirded out by gays.
Abraham Lincoln once said, 'If you are a racist, I will attack you with the North."
On His Philosophy:
My philosophy is basically this. And this is something that I live by. And I always have. And I always will. Don't ever, for any reason, do anything to anyone, for any reason, ever, no matter what. No matter ... where. Or who, or who you are with, or where you are going, or ... or where you've been ... ever. For any reason, whatsoever.
Never, ever, ever give up.
A man is laying on his death bed. There are four things that are going through his mind: Was I well loved? Check. Did I express myself, did I let my light shine through? Check. Will an attractive woman cry at my funeral? Check. Probably more than one. Check, check check check. Lastly, did I achieve success and own real estate?

Elton John - I Want Love
I've been fascinated by this video ever since I saw it sometime in 2005. It's a single take of Robert Downey Jr. walking around a house for 4 minutes lip syncing the song, but it raises a lot of questions. Why can't I stop watching? Whose mansion is that? Where is all the furniture?!?! It gets even more interesting if you know that this was Robert Downey Jr.'s first acting job after getting sober in 2001.

Trailers From Hell
This website is my current obsession. It's basically a collection of genre movie trailers with commentary from other directors (Joe Dante, John Landis, Eli Roth, and Guillermo Del Toro among others). This is my crack. I'm slowly making my way through the trailers for movies I've already seen, and then I'll start in on the movies that I want to see. This could be bad...

Minecraft
I heard about Minecraft a few months ago but never really looked into it. I'm sorry I didn't. This looks amazing. Some of the things people have built blow my mind. Check out any of the Minecraft videos on youtube for proof. Here's the trailer and a day 1 tutorial from the official website.

Skullgirls - trailer
I like the art style of this game, it reminds me of the Scott Pilgrim beat em' up that came out last year. Interestingly, the lead programmer for the game is actually longtime fighting game community member Mike Z.

I thought this was really cool. Reminds me of all the good times I used to have with my action figures.

This movie looks like a goddamn mess. Is it a comedy? Is it a slasher movie? A throwback to John Hughes 80s movies? Was that Dane Cook as a principal? Aliens? WTF? I can't help but be fascinated. I did laugh pretty hard at "Thank God that's not me".

Mortal Kombat 9 Challenge Tower
There hasn't been a good MK game since 1995, but each time a new one comes out I'm always hopeful. If Batman can't save this franchise, maybe mission mode can. I love shit like this.

Peace On Earth / Little Drummer Boy 2010 with Jack Black and Jason Segel
Jack Black and Jason Segal were recently in Gulliver's Travels together and have done some charity concerts together in the past. I wish I had seen this one earlier. Apparently all of the royalties from i-tunes will go to charity (plus the animated versions of these guys are hilarious).

Catherine
Catherine is a Japanese platform/puzzle game mixed with a dating sim and anime cutscenes. Supposedly it's coming stateside on the PS3 and 360. I think it looks interesting.

Star Wars: Clone Wars
Was unable to find Season 3 on megavideo. Searching for this is difficult because there are two TV shows and a movie all called Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Anyway, this is the good one.

The Iron Man anime has already aired and Wolverine, "Uruvarin" haha, is in the middle of it's run. I'm really excited to check these out. Here's a couple of trailers:

The Black Keys - Howlin' For You
This is actually a music video by the band The Black Keys. It's basically a parody of Tarantino movies. It's pretty good.

The current release date is August 19th. Let's hope for the best.
P.S., do yourself a favor and crank this up to 11.

La Maison en Petits Cubes
This is the short that beat Presto in 2008. It's a French-style Japanese-made story about a widower living in a nicer version of Kevin Costner's Waterworld. Despite that description it's actually quite beautiful. Check it out.
It's Groundhog Day!
"Okay, campers, rise and shine, and don't forget your booties 'cause it's cooooold out there today!"
Here's some cool Groundhog Day related stuff.

Presto
Video - Presto - Pixar
My personal favorite Pixar short. This is probably because the whole thing is a throwback to Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry. I laugh every time I see it. Was nominated for Best Animated Short Film in 2008, but lost.

Video - Day And Night - Pixar
Currently nominated for the 2010 Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film. Definitely the best Pixar animated short to date, but it's still only my #2 favorite.

Clockw0rk vs Neo - $15,000 MvC2 Money Match
With MvC3 coming out next month, this first to 15 match between Clockw0rk (the best Strider/Doom player ever) and Neo (top west coast player) was hyped as the last great MvC2 money match. I'd say that it lived up to the hype.

Mortal Kombat: Rebirth
This unofficial fan short directed by Kevin Tancharoen was released last summer. It's popularity has caused Warner Bros to commission a web-series to be released this spring in conjunction with Mortal Kombat 9.
Pogo
Nick Bertke over at Pogomix.net just might be a genius. At the very least an idiot savant. If you've ever seen any of his older YouTube vids then you'd already know that he's an amazing editor and musician. Now he's proving that he's an equally talented filmmaker. He's about to start a North American tour and recently started his World Remix project. Do yourself a favor a check this guy out.
Here's my current favorite:

The Ward
Not sure how I feel about this. It is a Carpenter flick, but the trailer makes it look like it's the same brand of Hollywood horror movie that we've been seeing for the last 10 years.
