If you loved Mystery Science Theater 3000 you’ll like this: “Fans of Mystery Science Theater 3000 rejoice! Three of MST3K’s writer/characters — Mike Nelson, Bill Corbett, and Kevin Murphy — have started a new venture: The Film Crew. The Film Crew has been entrusted with a very important mission: providing commentary tracks for every movie that doesn’t have one. Typically, they’ve chosen to start at the bottom of the barrel, and now you get to vote on which B-movie will get the Film Crew treatment on DVD first.” Pacman Undies

This is amazing, it even has motors in it: “This rotating Stargate is 19 inches tall with light-up chevrons. An RCX drives a treadmill, which spins the inner ring randomly for x seconds, then reverses direction, seven times. Won best medium space award and best brick mod at BrickFest 2005.” Steampunk Laptop

Posted by Michael Pinto on Oct 17, 2006 in Comic Books
This is an amazing online exhibition of sketches, many of which have an editorial cartoon look to them. It’s amazing first hand look at the “war to end all wars”: JM’s World War One Sketchbook “The images presented on this website are from a set of two World War One sketchbooks archived in the University of Victoria’s Special Collections Library. They contain approximately 130 water-colour and pen and ink images which were produced by a British soldier based in France and Belgium between 1917 and 1918.” The Hunt for Shatner

Some fanboy decor for your desktop: Tideland Trailer
Posted by Michael Pinto on Oct 15, 2006 in Cinema
A trailer for the new Terry Gilliam film is out! It looks a bit dark: “Jeliza-Rose is a young girl in a very unusual situation both of her parents are junkies and she is usually left to her own devices for entertainment. When her mother dies, her father takes her to a remote farm in the country, she escapes the vast loneliness of her new home by retreating into a world that exists only in her mind. Here, fireflies have names, bog-men awaken at dusk, and squirrels talk. And the heads of her four dolls Mystique, Baby Blonde, Glitter Gal, and Sateen Lips long since separated from their bodies, keep her company.” Also check out this great interview with Gilliam at avclub.com. China to Enter Space Tourism Biz?

Being a fanboy I for one wouldn’t mind seeing a new space tourism race: China may enter space tourism race “China may one day offer trips into space for tourists, a senior official said on Thursday, outlining the country’s plans to launch more rockets, explore the moon and even help farmers by using satellite transmissions. Sun Laiyan, head of the China National Space Administration, also defended the cost of the space program, saying Beijing spent far less than the United States, it benefited ordinary people and was anyway a matter of national pride.” C-3PO’s Cereal

A crunch new “force” at breakfast: See You in the Funny Papers
Posted by Michael Pinto on Oct 14, 2006 in Comic Books
A great review of “Masters of American Comics” which runs through Jan. 28 at the Newark Museum in NJ and the Jewish Museum in NYC: “The show tracks a century of formal comics invention (in Newark, mostly early strips; at the Jewish Museum, different comic book incarnations) through what are meant to be mini-retrospectives. This means Elzie Crisler Segar’s “Thimble Theater,” which introduced Popeye (he was far, far darker than the spinach-addled television cartoon), and Milton Caniff’s superstylish “Terry and the Pirates.” It means Frank King’s languid “Gasoline Alley” and Chester Gould’s “Dick Tracy,” which set the standard for hard-boiled grit and packed a visceral punch that came from tightly organized colors and shapes (Mr. Spiegelman calls it “blueprint Expressionism”) until Mr. Gould went kind of gaga and launched Tracy into outer space to fight bad guys on the moon in a rocket-powered garbage can.” Spiderman’s Giant Robot

Posted by Michael Pinto on Oct 12, 2006 in Star Trek
Wrath of Khan was perhaps Star Trek at it’s very best. This is a great interview with writer and director Nicholas Meyer who discusses the making of the film, Spock’s death, Khan’s chest, the movie’s connection to the Horatio Hornblower novels: ‘The Cult of Khan’: One on One with Star Trek director Nicholas Meyer “It wasn’t even my idea to bring him back (Kahn), it was just one of the things we all agreed on that we liked. They showed me the episode. At the very beginning, when I first went in, I didn’t know anything about Star Trek. They showed me the Robert Wise movie, and they showed me four or five episodes from the original series; I sat and watched, and said: “Ah! Hornblower…in outer space”.” Grind House Trailer Released
