Guess what I found, kidlings!
The stuff you find while messing around on YouTube...
As many of you may or may not be aware, the popular anime series Slayers had a few video games that used (mostly) original animated cut scenes. I remember seeing the opening to the first Slayers Royal game ages ago and thinking 'what the frig is this?'
However, some gracious person on YouTube has taken it upon themselves to upload the cut sequences from both Slayers Royal 2, and Slayers Wonderful. Here's the playlist. The clips are raw and unsubtitled, but if you're familiar with Slayers at all, that shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Jackie Chan kicks Steven Seagal's butt....in singing
Incidentally, he doesn't just do Disney songs (he has an actual singing career), but I thought this video was just surreal.

Steven Seagal & Thunderbox
Yes, THAT Steven Seagal. Apparently aside from acting, he likes to focus on his real talent-
playing the blues!!
And what's even better- he's even playing at CasinoRama later this month.
I can't wait...
oh wait, yes I can. ;)

Not your typical Christmas Claymation - The Junky's Christmas
As a growing fan of William S. Burroughs, I was excited to find a claymation version of his work "The Junky's Christmas" on Google video. I've really started to google favourite directors, writers, eras,etc, and the result is just amazing.
This short is produced by Francis Ford Coppola, and follows Danny the Carwiper, who's looking for a fix. It's not fluffy-sentimental, it's not tug-at-your-heartstrings depressing, but it is what I call a Christmas story. And just damn interesting.
This was a video I meant to watch on Christmas Eve (and I wish I had). I'm not so sure that the version on Google Video is the full version, but here it is:

Christmas Classics
Christmas Eve is here, and rather than bore myself with the same old Christmas specials, I'm sifting through my favourite video sites to see if I can find anything worthwhile. I'll keep updating as I watch.
(I've skipped the embedded players, in case it ends up being a really long list!)
1. Bing Crosby and David Bowie sing "Little Drummer Boy"
2. Ye Olde Coke Commercial - you've seen it!
3. Rich Little talks about A Christmas Carol
4. Merry Melodies Christmas Carol
5. Richard Williams' animated version of A Christmas Carol (voiced by Allistar Sim)

word of the day - iGeneration
Wikipedia describes the iGeneration, in one sentence, as:
The term foregrounds the paradoxical ways in which this generation's idiosyncratic subjectivity and individualism ("I") develop within global capitalism and its technological mediation in a way that both constrains and expands the possibilities for identity-formation, akin to how Michel Foucault points to the relationship between sexuality and discourse in the nineteenth century's generative effects of power.
Well, I think that just about covers it. But just in case you needed any visual aid to clarify:
Ya, I'm scared too.
