blame it on my wild heart

Sometimes, the best things ever are created when no one is around... and every once in a while, someone may be lurking around the corner (in a non-creepy kind of way...or creepy... whatever you prefer) just at the right moment to capture it.

I'm glad this was captured... it is by far one of my most favorite things. Ever.

Friday

miss piggy, you dirty dirty muppet

In all my life and all my days....no video since the honey badger has made me swoon like this one...




I am a HUUUUUUUUUGE muppets fan. Every time I'm sick I watch Muppets Take Manhattan, I have the Fraggle Rock Boxed set, I met Big Bird once and kept his autograph (eventually got it framed... as an adult), and would probably fan out so hard (i.e blush, cry, maybe even pass out) if I was ever fortunate to go and meet Snuffleupagus (who has the prettiest eyelashes in the business)!!!

Well, I'm in a muppets mood so here is an homage to that!!!

Monday

in a galaxy far far away



Star Wars Begins, a new 14-part fan-made documentary, available free on YouTube.

The 1977 movie is reconstructed in full, using lost footage, alternate takes of scenes, and narration taken from audio recordings of interviews with actors and behind-the-scenes crew.

Skipping around the ten-minute clips, you'll find gems like an alternate Cantina sequence, featuring a gorier bar brawl (not only does that drunk alien lose his arm to a lightsaber, but his head goes, too).

All that, and Han gets some action from a female patron.

Despite the geekier material, it's a fascinating look behind the scenes of a very risky Hollywood production — especially when studio execs demand that scenes of Luke and his friends are cut for being "too much like American Graffiti in space."

Watch it now, before Darth Lucas unleashes his legion of lawyers.
