Here’s to the Crazy Ones
While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

The Ballad of Steven Slater
Turns out the tirade of Steven Slater makes for a great chorus.
Steve Jobs’s Reality Distortion Field
Taiwanese news animation covering recent events at Apple, including the recent iPhone 4 antenna problems. I love many things about this, not least of which that it was made for the ‘news’.
Talking Carl Scream Fight
Talking Carl is an iPhone app that repeats whatever you say, only in a higher voice. Get two of them together and they try to outdo one another.

AT-AT Day Afternoon
Very nice short film by Patrick Boivin with the AT-AT as household pet. Well done.
Pitch ‘n’ Putt with Joyce ‘n’ Beckett
Hilarious.
Airplane! is a parody of Zero Hour!
Much of the classic movie Airplane! is pulled directly from the 1957 film Zero Hour!, which features a fighter pilot named Ted Stryker who must land a plane after both original pilots are incapacitated by food poisoning, and includes the actual line “Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit smoking.”
Star Wars Uncut
The editors at the Star Wars Uncut project have divided the first Star Wars movie into 15 second clips, which fans have recreated in a dizzying variety of styles and quality. Stitched together, the final product is a remake of the entire film, made from 473 independently produced pieces.
What follows is a 5 minute preview. The full film will be premiered at the CPH PIX film festival in Denmark.
Time-lapse Music Video
Really beautiful. I love the part where the people suddenly spill into the street and onto the opposite side, before the cars surge through the intersection.
