MUSIC VIDEO: Neosignal – Planet Online (Official Video)
This is NOT a band or music I listen to.
This is a video that stands on its own awesomeness — Basically, all of the popular aspects of the internet represented as 1990s toy commercials.
Pretty awesome.
This is great. Some assembly required.
Thanks Alan M!

CARTOONS: MOVIES: The Hit Squad
An animated comedy movie? Yes!
Oh, it’s done in 8-bit style? Double yes!
And it’s about a washed up, failing 1980s synthpop band?!?!?! Triple yes.
Must see this when it comes out!

TV SHOWS: Help TODD AND THE BOOK OF PURE EVIL Get Animated!
SHUT UP AND GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY.
This is the best live-action supernatural comedy series to ever be made, and it’s just unacceptable to have the ending cliffhanger never resolved.
This is the logical thing to do: An animated movie to end it all.

CARTOONS: Aeon Flux:The Peter Chung Interview!!!!
FUCK how did I miss this Peter Chung interview posted to LiveJournal in 2006?!?!?! He finally talks about hating the movie, and reveals “secrets” about the original MTV 1990s animation. Good stuff.
“Q: Trevor and Aeon possess antithetical believes about state policy and political identity. Are their views reconcilable? Could you say you identify with one stance more than the other?
No, they are not reconcilable. In fact, their existence depends on the eternal struggle between their respective views. They are aware of this “dependency” on the other, and that is why they can never bring themselves to destroy the other.
Till now, I’ve resisted stating outright how I’ve defined the relationship between Aeon and Trevor in my mind, as I preferred to let the viewer decide. However, with the movie’s shot at a definitive explanation on view, and with 10 years for viewers to make up their minds, I suppose I might as well. In spite of what people have said, their relationship is consistent and makes sense. It is not only perfectly logical, but the only way it could be. Their respective personalities define the relationship and the relationship defines their personalities.
Once and for all– Aeon is NOT out to kill Trevor. (Where do people get this idea?) Even in the Pilot, she refrains from shooting him in the elevator.

You know what’s worse than 3 people dead and 176 injured? Millions of people thinking they have constitutional rights, but finding out they actually don’t.
And a right that the government can selectively take away when it feels like it? That is not a right. At that point, it’s simply a privilege.
Pointing a gun at somebody IS violence. This is violence against citizenry. At this point, it’s almost a collective punishment for allowing a terrorist to attack.
The worst part is how many people are lined up saying this is okay — Americans have completely and utterly forgotten what freedom is supposed to be.
They now just want a security force that keeps the maximum bodies alive, regardless of consequence to free will.
Fuck that, and Fuck Boston, city of pussies. From the great boston tea party of the 1770s to the pussydom of today, there’s no city in the country that’s pissed harder on its own legacy of freedom.
Adding extra insult to all this? The raids made no difference. The suspect wasn’t in a house, and was found by civilian tips. The police made little difference. This was about training people to obey Big Brother.

VIDEO: Mazzy Star – Fade Into You (Slowed) Vs. Twin Peaks
Okay… I’ve loved the Mazzy Star song for a long time, and I really fucking love Twin peaks… So why not combine the two, slow down the song so it’s 8 minutes long and sounds sung by a dude, and make the visuals all purple-green with a bunch of trippy datamoshing between Twin Peaks characters and Black Lodge rooms?
Yeah. Kick-ass.

ABUSE OF AUTHORITY: Philly Cop Found Not Guilty for Punching Woman on Camera
Fucking ridiculous. That is all.
Let us remember Philadelphia Police Lt. Jonathan Josey as the violent thug that he is.
Let s remember Judge Patrick Dugan as the judge who ruled police can punch us in the face if we are holding a beer.

Looks like there’s a reality-TV show that I might actually watch! This will fill the void left behind by Kenny Vs. Spenny dying down.

VIDEO: MOVIE: REVIEW: The Avengers (2012)
5/5 stars from Clint & Carolyn
4/5 stars from Eli
3/5 stars from Parthena.
10/10 from Carolyn,
9.6/10 from Clint,
8/10 from Eli,
6/10 from Parthena.
IMDB overall rating is 8.6/10, making it the 65th highest-rated movie of all time. 42% of people rate it 10/10, and only 1/6th of people rate it less than 8+/10. The median rating is 9/10.
No real need to say much about this. Everyone saw it, and it was as awesome as it promised to be. The clashing of egos was hilarious, and it was great to see this epic heroes — built up over the last 5 Marvel movies or so — finally all together on screen at once.
And of course we’ve been watching the cartoon, Avengers:Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, so we’ve been pretty immersed in these characters on a very regular basis.
Eli: “As long as it stands on the other movies I think it was awesome. That being said I could have had a bit more about Hawk. But for pulling together so many heros’ backstories I thought it did a really good job. Plus it was really funny :)”
Carolyn: “I’m leaning towards 10/10, because it had funny banter and good battles. I can’t think of a reason not to give it a 10.”

Cartoons! FOR WAR!!
Really… A better weapon would be the 3-D Jonas Brothers concert video.
But anyway… Why the hell can’t I find the seizure-inducing Pokemon clip for watching?
Surely someone must have videotaped it… And uploaded it somewhere. LiveLeak? I’ve looked for torrents and never found it.
I WOULD LIKE TO TEST MY VIEWING MIGHT.
I mean, I gotta be able to take more than a japanese schoolkids, right? How bad can some fucking flickering cartoons really be? I want to judge their wussiness by seeing it myself.

UPDATE! FOUND IT! WATCH AT YOUR OWN RISK! But really…. pffft if this hurts you..

Yup. Jaywalking = death sentence. You can see it in the video. A man running away is not a threat, and certainly a man that’s been shot in the back 4 times is not a threat either.
Supposedly they found a gun on him, but there were none of his fingerprints on him. Doesn’t matter if he did have a gun — carrying a gun is our constitutional right.
Imagine how much more this happened before we had surveillance cameras everywhere — back when the violent crime rate was higher than it is today.
Isn’t it funny how the cop’s name is protected from the public, but people who are arrested are a matter of public record? One set of laws for us, another set of laws for them.

…And then the teen (who had committed no crime before the cops decided to mess with him) spent 4 months in jail based on a struggle the cop made up…. He went to jail 4 months for “assaulting” an officer so bad that a gun “went off” in the struggle. But oops. Caught on camera. It was the cop doing the assaulting, and even if the kid had gotten in a physical fight with the cop, it is no excuse to walk up and sucker-pistol whip someone so recklessly that a gun shoots in a random direction.
Where were the tasers again?
Yea.. these kids seemed like stupid pranksters, but now they are a waste of our tax dollars instead. I hope he wins the $10M lawsuit. Corporal Donald Taylor should get the fate that awaits cops who go to prison. This is injustice.
