CARDBOARD ANIMATION

REBOOT: PREPARE FOR LET-DOWN

I used to work for the studio responsible for ReBoot. I never worked on the series itself but am friends with many people who did and I understand that there's a HUGE following of devoted ReBoot fans out there. Please Rainmaker, if you're going to make a teaser like this, and get these fans excited to the point where many will weep, if not shit their pants, then you have to follow up on it. In other words, do something--ANYTHING. Don't cock-tease the christ out of these people by giving them textured boxes and a stormy sky! Uggggghhh. I know teasers are just that; to tease people with something before you really have much material, but please, spend more than 35 Canadian dollars would you? I mean, after 10 years of advancements in technology, I'd expect this teaser to look somewhat "upgraded."

THE CUP OF TEARS

Pretty slick and crazy samurai sci-fi flick!

The Cup of Tears film trailer. Dir. Gary Shore from Gary Shore on Vimeo.



It's an Irish movie made in Slovenia and here's the synopsis:
"Follows a scorned geisha who creates a magical cup made of tears that causes any man who drinks from it to fall into a permanent sleep. One night the cup is stolen, setting off a chain of events that threatens civil war amongst the clans. Taro, a gifted samurai, sets out to find the cup and one who can break the spell."

ALI: GREATEST ENTERTAINER

Little Boy Heroically Shoots, Mutilates Burglar

MUHAMMAD ALI!


The other night my black cat puked on my lap. I wondered if it was bad luck. Turns out it was good luck because I just saw Muhammad Ali!! I was getting into work a tad late and I heard cheers coming from the Lululemon headquarters (which is just next door). I then heard someone on a microphone asking questions like "What was Muhammad Ali's birth name?" and "Who did he fight in The Rumble In The Jungle?" Knowing that The Greatest is in town I thought, "What are the chances he's here?" So I popped up to Lululemon and saw a little stage with boxing gloves sitting under a chair and a small crowd had gathered behind a velvet rope. I then knew that he'd be coming! After waiting about half-an-hour, he arrived! How fucking incredibly awesome is that?! I was literally 10 feet away from The King! Sorry about the low-quality of these iPhone photos. WHY COULDN'T I HAVE MY NIKON!?

Muhammad Ali is seated on the stage.
