I recently found a lovely video involving a 25,000 domino structure. Enjoy.

I was randomly wandering, and encountered a rather droll limerick by Neil Gaiman. It can be found on a page about support for some sort of endeavor; I have not explored what the purpose is.
The reason I am posting is because of the illustration on the page. Do check it out!

Yesterday was the 50th anniversary of the TV show “Star Trek.”
In honor of that, a website ran an article about an astounding cross-stitch tribute.
Unfortunately, they do not share the full image that is used as the link-image within the article. Thus, I needed to track down those images and am uploading them myself. They are amazing, and worth it.
However, these pictures do (indirectly) come from the website listed above.
Enjoy.

There is a new small behind-the-scenes out for the forthcoming live action version of Beauty and the Beast. It is actually primarily an advertisement for additional features found on the digital release of the classic version that came out two days ago. However, the little seen here is worth watching. (As a note, the teaser trailer is also included in this.)
Enjoy.

I am surprised I am beating the Webmaster to this post; it is about a new Star Wars Universe Trailer. This one is the International Trailer.
My apologies for posting one with non-English subtitles.
What I find fascinating are the differences between the American Trailer and the International one. (No, the subtitles do not qualify.)
The one I immediately noticed was the different scoring used.
The American version, you may recall, uses variations on the Imperial March. Except (surprisingly) at the very end when in addition to the imperial march, there is a small hint of the Rebel’s Theme with The Reveal. (I am trying to keep this as spoiler free as possible.)
This one, however, utilizes the Rebellion Theme from the very beginning, and then primarily chords and emptiness. It does not paint the same picture of darkness, but instad gives a bit more of a sense of… hope?
The time the Imperial March really comes through, however, is at the end. At it is definitely interesting to me that at the end of the International Trailer, there is not the hint of the Rebel’s Theme.
It is also quite interesting that in both the scores, the main theme being used is played on piano. It is a slightly more subtle time; neither are as fully developed as in the events of the original movies.
It am quite looking forward to haring how the full scoring for the movie goes.

A few evenings ago, I ended up watching the 1966 Batman movie. It was enjoyable, in an over-the-top ridiculous sort of way.
It is available on Netflix, if you want to watch it. If you are in the mood for mindless fluff (which your presence on this website suggests), I rather recommend it. And yes, I do fully realize that I have now acknowledged my own, occasional tolerance and even interest in truly mindless fluff types of entertainment.
Have a lovely day.

I recently discovered a rather amusing list, that seems reminiscent of the “Evil Overlord” list. Instead of tips for the villain, however, it is tips for the poor soul who gets the role of “true love” of the story.
As with the Evil Overlord list, the items listed are in response to frequently used plot devices that seem a bit… fixable.
Enjoy.

As you may recall, there is a YouTube channel that the Webmaster is moderately obsessed with: The Hillywood Show.
They do high quality performance art, so I also have been watching their recent creations with interest.
The new one (in a manner of speaking; it is not a full production) is a trailer for the parody they are in the process of making.
Here are two of the things I appreciated about it:
I am very much looking forward to seeing what the final product will be. The shown costuming, props, and sound effects thus far indicate a continued attention to precise detail that (to an extent) defines the Hillywood Style.
Have a lovely weekend.

As you may recall, last week I briefly discussed “Pokemon Go.” I also mentioned that I expected the hype to start decreasing by today. I do not think it has happened. There has been enough news and enough interesting things pertaining to the game that it has been kept in the public’s eye for this week. I will continue to watch this phenomenon next week.
Have a lovely Sunday.

If you have been on any social media platform at all within the last 72 hours, you are probably aware that there is something called “Pokemon Go” that was just recently released.
For those of you who have been wondering what it is: It is a video game for mobile devices that interacts with the real world, and with real world movement.
From what I have gathered from a cursory overview, the Pokemon franchise is a set of games wherein players try to “capture” wild pokemon (cute animated monsters). The player then trains them to fight.
Also from what I understand, it is not nearly as amoral as that description makes it sound.
This new iteration is enabling (and requiring) real-life, real-world interaction in order to make the game work. In order to find wild pokemon, players need to walk around the real world. The ap has an augmented reality feature, which thereby makes the pokemon appear in particular places. Players may also need to use physical movement in order to capture the pokemon. Also, the locations are the same for everybody. Thus, there are apparently “game-critical” stations that have been receiving a fair bit of pedestrian traffic recently.
In all, it is an interesting phenomenon. I expect the hype to start dying down by next week, but as this franchise is children-friendly, I expect this to be one of the more talked about and utilized summer activities.
Have a lovely Sunday.
