beetle drink?




today, upon watching this for the bazillionth time i realized a few things.

i like 2009 alec baldwin way better than 1988 alec baldwin.

catherine o'hara is amazing.
duh, i already knew that.

this movie is flawless.
wait, i already knew that.

doc love



this movie is so heartbreakingly good and it's heartbreaking bullshit that it got cut from the Oscar shortlist.

But at least we have the Spirit Awards, they nominated it today and it's most likely gonna win. hopefully the band will play at the ceremony.

please watch Anvil! The Story of Anvil if you haven't yet.

also left off of the list: It Might Get Loud, This is it, and The September Issue.
GTFO!

OK!

WE GET IT!
YOU'RE ATTRACTIVE!
GEEZ!

LED



The YAS Hotel in Abu Dhabi was recently completed, and its curvilinear grid-shell which is covered with over 5,300 diamond-shaped steel panels, containing nearly 5000 LED fixtures is being announced as the world’s largest LED project controlled through RDM (Remote Device Management).



sadly i will never get to see this fantastic hotel in real life since i have no plans to visit Abu Dhabi. Ever.
I say build one of these bad boys in Vegas where it clearly belongs.

this is all kinds of good news:

"The Office" scribes Brent Forrester and Mindy Kaling are looking to boost their self-esteem with a bigscreen project at Mandate Pictures.

The duo have set up "The Low Self Esteem of Lizzie Gillespie" with the team behind "Juno" and will pen the original romantic comedy, which will be produced by John Malkovich via his Mr. Mudd shingle. Mandate and Mr. Mudd collaborated on "Juno."

Story centers on a woman whose lack of self-worth has limited her choice in men to losers. Just as she is about to hit the bottom of the barrel, her life takes an unexpected turn when she is pursued by the hottest guy ever.

Kaling, who is also an "Office" cast member, will play a supporting role.

Grill 'Em All Hits Streets December

i wasn't especially interested in this article about a new burger truck until i read this:

In addition to burgers look for H-100’s (cheddar and jack filled, panko-crusted tater tots), the Molly Hatchet (seared fennel sausage gravy, bacon, and a maple syrup drizzle), and, not sure the musical connection but, fries with truffle oil.


whaaaaaaaaaat?
