  • The Past Decade According to Kids

    I just ran into an interesting piece where Allison Loui-Garcia asked a bunch of kids about some stuff that may have defined their ten years of life. Some of those questions involve pop culture, news events, baby one more time, napster, dial-up, 9/11 and their fears.

    We usually hate most children on this website, but the answers are interesting and somewhat adorable.

    Also, what kind of mom buys her kid an ipod when he’s 2 years old? Lady, you’re supposed to get noisy headaches when you have children. You’re supposed to play tag and hide & seek with them and all those kids games.

  • Music Video Director: Wayne Isham

    There’s no gain without Wayne, or there’s no pain without Wayne. I know it’s something like that. It’s been years since I first heard Wayne Isham saying that on one of those episodes of MTV’s Making the Video, back when making a video was very important for MTV.

    Wayne Isham was another name that really popped up when I spent all day watching MTV. If I could describe Isham’s music video style with one word, it would be “woosh!” even though that’s not a word. His videos captured a very energetic vibe with fast cuts and, what I call fade-in wooshes — it’s when Isham would be focusing his camera on the singer/group and there would be a fade-in from one shot to the next one that made it seem like pushing in or away from the subject in a very funky way.

    Of course, the best way to understand that woosh concept is to see it in action. For instance, those fast cuts are very prominents on Metallica’s video of I Disappear (from the Mission Impossible II OST) xD (more…)

  • UPular by Pogo

    If you liked Up… or if you didn’t, this track/MV mixed by YouTube user Pogo is still awesome. Mixed from the chords, bass notes and vocal samples of the film, only for our enjoyment!

    check out Pogo’s Alohomora. Makes me want to pop my Harry Potter DVDs. LOL

  • Air Doll Subbed Trailer

    Though I feel the trailer spoils the film a bit too much.
    The only person who can answer this is Julz…
    Does it?

    I love Kore-eda’s work and sensibilities as a director. He always gets to me. And doe-eyed Doona Bae is always so good to see. Perfect to play a blow-up doll. LOL

  • Maid Cafe, Karaoke and Yakitori for the BSB on their Bigger MV

    Maid Cafe. The very concept makes me giggle.

    But you can never go wrong with Karaoke and Yakitori…
    okay maybe the same can be applied to Maid Cafe too.

    I wasn’t a big fan of the This Is Us album, and Bigger wasn’t my favorite track in it… and the video is normal, but it just kinda works. I mean, it’s Japan~~~ And did I mention the Maid Cafe, Karaoke AND Yakitori?? xD

    This link seems to look a bit better, but can’t embed.
