Now In 3D

Bwana Devil in 3D

Until the technology reaches a level that doesn’t require socially awkward glasses, or cause migraines, it’s my personal belief that 3D TV and movies will continue to be a fad with re-occurring interest. This hasn’t stopped the current hype behind 3D televisions however, as the market is still jacked up on the high of successfully forcing everyone in America onto HD.

Still, last week I was poking around for info about Legend Films, the company that released the colourization of House On Haunted Hill. Colourization is a bit of a tough & seedy business – colourizers are sort of seen as the grave robbers of the entertainment industry – and maybe that’s why Legend decided it needed a new business plan: 3Derizing, er, 3Dimensioning, uh, Depthing…

They’ve decided they’re going to take old films and make them 3D.

Seriously, that’s a business now.

Friday The 13th Part 3 in 3DSomewhere, Ted Turner is cackling.

Graves

Dear Peter Graves,

Now that you’re dead I feel kind of bad about telling everyone what an alcoholic you were. Lets face it though, we both know that it wasn’t  your heart that did you in. I’m not sure if it’s the same fellow who got you stuck in Parts: The Clonus Horror, but your agent did you a favour by getting out in front of the story with this heart attack spiel.

I’m not Peter Graves,
A Fan

P.S. I always liked you better than James Arness.
P.P.S. This message will self destruct in five seconds.

Oh, Canada.

Eh?

It’s a great nation, it’s just too bad I have to share it with so many idiots. These two posts basically sum up why I don’t join facebook groups, and also why anyone engaging in political discussion on facebook needs to take a nap and maybe invest in an education.

No Haim Done

The Coreys

I don’t mean to be a jerk, but: did Corey Haim die, or did he just succumb to the inevitable? We’ve turned out a pretty solid generation of young stars who eventually grow into their gaunt faces and crack teeth. Next it’ll be Aaron Carter, Tara Reid, or maybe one of the Culkins.

If “Child Celebrity” was an invasive microbe we’d be seeing kids in front of grocery stores with pledge sheets and charity chocolate bars attempting to raise money to cure or curb it – if it were a geographic location we’d be seeing Sunday afternoon commercials featuring on-location shots, asking us to sponsor a former B-level Mickey Mouse Club member.

Rumination Syndrome

The name Rumination Syndrome sounds kind of pleasant actually, but the details are distressing:

Rumination Syndrome, is characterized by the repeated painless regurgitation of food following a meal which is then either re-chewed, re-swallowed or discarded. It is an under-diagnosed disorder possibly due to the fact that most physicians do not recognize the symptoms of the disorder. – Wikipedia

Human syndrome or bovine mid-morning snack?
