Biff's Back To The Future Card...

Do you have a question to ask Biff about Back To The Future? Well he has just the right card for you. Tom Wilson, better known as the bully Biff from Back To the Future, gets asked a lot of questions about his legendary role. Instead of being uptight and refusing to talk about one of the greatest movie franchises of all time, he created this business card.



Arrested Development Lego Set...


Combining the shoddy construction of Bluth model homes with the rigid assembly of interlocking Danish bricks, Matt De Lanoy has put together the entire main cast, home, and stair car of Arrested Development out of Legos. Obviously this is great, and all of us right now want to be playing with them, and having them reenact scenes, and making them break character to promise us a movie by 2014. That isn't going to happen, but there is a slight chance we could at least get to assemble the stair car and let Lego Darth Vader fulfill his destiny of becoming a hop-on (because you're gonna get some hop-ons).

Go here and vote for the stair car design, and if it reaches 10,000 votes, Lego will apparently review it for licensing. Approval will probably never happen--Lego has made it clear the designs should be suitable for children, not just man-children who have fallen asleep with Mrs. Featherbottom more often than they have a real woman--but considering the impossible has already happened with a new season of the show shooting this summer, maybe it's not so out of reach. If history is any indication, we probably just have to keep berating Lego about it every time they're just trying to promote an unrelated film project.

See the full set of Bluths and Bluth accessories below, and see more of De Lanoy's amazing work on his Flickr.

The Ghostbusters Tour Of New York...

Graeme...

Spine TV is delighted to introduce director Will Robson-Scott and his latest film Graeme, which you can watch here: http://vimeo.com/41776774
The film follows Graeme, a passionate skateboarder who has been a part of the London skate community for 25 years and whose eccentricities and enthusiasm for the sport are accentuated because of his condition, Asperger’s syndrome. A regular fixture at every event, Graeme has a huge knowledge of the history of skateboarding and is a staple of London’s skateboard scene. His passion for skating is deep rooted and sincere. Everyone has something in their life that puts a smile on their face; for Graeme this is skating.

The Feud Is Over...


Reggie Watts & Jon Hamm make beautiful music together...

Today IFC released a promotional clip of the new show in which the talented Jon Hamm and the brilliant Reggie Watts team up to improvise a song about the late '70s/early '80s sitcom Taxi. My favorite part is when Hamm does his impersonation of The Reverend Jim "Iggy" Ignatowski.

Dinosaur Scares Zack...

Zack is 2 1/2 years old, but he knows better than to listen to that ridiculous Jurassic Park strategy of staying still. You see a giant robot dinosaur in the woods; you run your little ass off!

The Avengers XXX...

Are you waiting for "The Avengers" or "Avengers XXX"??? The answer may surprise you! Actually...it probably would not. Vivid Entertainment will release "The AvengersXXX: A Porn Parody" online at www.vivid.com on Tuesday, May 1st and in stores nationwide a week later on May 8th. Release of the Vivid movie will coincide with the U.S. release of the movie it parodies, which is scheduled for May 4th. The character-rich parody is directed by award-winning director Axel Braun, from an original script by Braun and Mark Logan.

In the "Avengers XXX" storyline, The Hulk has run rampant through Las Vegas, leaving a path of destruction in his wake. Nick Fury, the head of the S.H.I.E.L.D., a peacekeeping organization, asks several super heroes including Iron Man, Spider-Woman, Ms. Marvel, Hawkeye and the Scarlet Witch to help.

Venice In A Day...

I love tilt-shift lenses. Taken at the right angle, they can make any shot have a warped miniature look. It's even better when it's shot in time lapse. Check out this great video by: Joerg Niggli.

Blood Orange - Champagne Coast

Check out this video I just can't get enough of. The song sounds like it could of come from the 80's. Blood Orange is definitely an artist I'm going to keep an eye on.


Back To The Future...In A Lego DeLorean...

Check out this custom Lego set from Masashi. It includes pieces for three different DeLoreans, three Martys and three Docs so you can model them after whichever film in the trilogy is your favorite. This was created as a part of Lego Cuusoo, which encourages fans to design and submit ideas and, if they get 10,000 votes, their project is seriously evaluated for production. The Back to the Future set has the votes, now we just have to hope that the good folks at Lego decide they can make it for all of us.
