Friday at Work
Never a dull moment at work. Broken Hydrant from Paul Brobst on Vimeo.
Christian the Lion
This video has been making the rounds. Animals never cease to amaze. It would be tough not to be worried as he came barreling towards you though.
Tron 2
There are a million posts about this already, but I cannot restrain myself. Watch it before they pull it down again: I may have to dress up as this for Halloween.
DR. Horrible is the Best Thing Ever.
Seriously, watch this right now. It gets pulled down Sunday evening.
Fourth of July and Hellboy 2
Go see Hellboy 2, it is much better than the first one. I did like the first one, but mostly because I like Hellboy’s character. Hellboy 2 is sitting at an 88% right now on Rottentomatoes. Here’s some fireworks for you: Fourth of July 08 from Paul Brobst on Vimeo.
39 Seconds of Saturday, and Other Stuff
Wall-E is highly recommended. The story is simpler than the Incredibles, but I’d say I enjoyed the movie just as much. It is amazing how much character they can put into something that barely speaks. As usual the CG was a step up. I look forward to Pixar’s next. Wanted was odd. I think I [...]
Waterlollies and Turnaround
A friend pointed me to these animations. Take a look. Waterlollies: Turnaround:
Alice
This smooth electronic remix of clips from Alice in Wonderland is really awesome. You can get the free mp3 here.
He Likes You
This is what I picture myself as whenever I start talking to a random girl.
Rise of the Argonauts
Here’s a short preview of the game I’m working on.
Magical Trevor
From the land of Old Hat, I bring you Magical Trevor. Magical Trevor Magical Trevor 2 3 and 4 are, not so good.

Content Aware Image Resizing
Very cool. It takes some finesse to apply the filters, such as selecting the energy function for the image. The examples shown are pretty impressive, and the idea of using seams seems pretty novel.
Office Linebacker
I might be late to this party, but these videos are hilarious.
Electric Surfin’ Go Go
This is Lily’s favorite new band. Hyper! My comment is to the bassist. You do not strum and pick a bass like a guitar, you pluck. Use your fingers!
The Hardest Mario Game Ever
Only one word can describe this. Brutal. Also, hilarious.
Guitar Hero Destroyed
I gave my parents Guitar Hero 3 on the Wii for Christmas. It was a popular present. My nephew has already gone through easy mode and I hear that my sister has spent several multi-hour practice sessions with it. Here is my challenge to them: 9 Year Old Beats Hardest Guitar Hero Level

Melting Bunny
This is one of the more surreal videos I have seen in awhile. The bunny seems so innocent, which makes the melting feel gruesome. Add in the extremely peaceful music and there is a lot of cognitive dissonance.
Donald Duck Wants You to Pay Your Taxes
It gets really good at 2:20 and 3:10.
