Real Anchorman = Lego Anchorman

After the overwhelming response on the movie comparison I posted yesterday, I decided to upload the Afternoon Delight scene from Anchorman for your enjoyment.



I had to alter it a bit to keep the length. Just as I tried doing on the Zoolander clip, I did my best to replicate the original shot-for-shot with the time (and pieces) given. What I found hardest was to control two people at once with my brother "acting" through the other two. And now, the lego film:

Award given where music starts

My favourite radio station, Phantom 105.2, won Local Music Station Of The Year at the PPI awards last night and deservedly so. Check out the press release on the blog of Phantom's very own Nadine O'Reagan here. I listen to the station as often as I can on weekday nights and most weekends when I'm not working the streets.

Visit the main site here and listen to Phantom online here. One of my favourite shows on the station is Album Archive where a single classic album is profiled. Tune in tomorrow for a show dedicated to Queen Of The Stone Age's "Songs For The Deaf". Here's the staff showing off their mad guitar skillz:

Lego Zoolander = Real Zoolander

For those interested in seeing the original Zoolander movie I based my lego movie on, I've uploaded it on the youtubes:



It's a bit sloppy in the editing but the main chunk I used for the lego clip is still there. I tried to get it down shot-for-shot as much as possible in the one day I had to shoot it. Here's the lego version:

A Brand New Mashup

... in poster format. Sylvester Stallone's new Rambo movie isn't known as "John Rambo" anymore. Or "Rambo: To Hell And Back". Or "End of Peace", "Holy War", "In the Serpent's Eye", "Pearl of the Cobra" or "Rambo: First Blood Part Two: The Sequel: Attack Of The Clones". They didn't even take my own suggestion "Rambo IV: How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Bomb". Anyways, the film is now going to be called "Rambo". To make your own Rambo poster, you take one part Sin City and one part Scarface:

If you are a Scarface fan, you will love this poster. It's made up entirely from the 300 page script. You can buy it here for $14.

Colour blindness sucks (apparently)

I'm colourblind. Apparently, that means I'm not allowed to become a pilot, an air traffic controller or win the Mr Perfect Colourblindness-Free Champion 2007. It didn't stop when I was studying to become a graphic designer or prevent me from giving the course up. To be honest, even though I've read Wikipedia's misconceptions and compensations, I have no idea why colourblindness would stop me from flying planes. I kick ass at Microsoft Flight Simulator 98 and have only managed to miss the landing strips about 3 times and land in the ocean. Somehow, that makes planes explode.

Feel free to take the coloublind test here and find out how "special" you are too. Here are the results I got from taking that test a while ago before the questions were changed.

Look at how many people got the same results I did! It boggles the mind. I found the image above at Threadless. It's a cool and cheap T-Shirt store. I'm all about the random sentences today.
