  • Harry Potter

    HOLY COW! The Harry Potter movie trailer is available online! You’ve gotta see this thing… For now, you can only get it in a streaming version from the official site, but Entertainment-Rewired Magazine is going to have a downloadable version soon here.

    Was that not amazing? According to AICN, the score was done by John Williams (of Star Wars fame). I really hope they manage to keep that dark, eerie feel through all of it. It looked more like a Tim Burton movie than a Chris Columbus one! Everything looked amazingly like how I had pictured it from the book. I loved the editing too, jumping from the letter to the train to the Great Hall. I really, really hope that the film lives up the quality of this trailer. *fingers crossed*

  • Slashdot links to a very interesting Boston Globe story about researchers who were able to pinpoint the exact time and location that a Vincent Van Gogh painting was done, mainly by using astronomy. Cool. You can see the original painting online here and the ensuing Slashdot comments are here.

  • Matthew Perry

    “Hi, I’m Chandler. Could I BE anymore on drugs?” An open letter to his fellow cast-members from Matthew Perry. Hilarious.

    Edited 01/03/2025: Ouch. In retrospect, that’s in pretty poor taste.

  • Heading Down Under…

    Where I am. Where I’ll be in less than a week. 🙂
