Teaser for Darren Aronofsky's Noah

I'd be lying if I didn't say I'm a little weird about the coming of DA's Noah. The return to big, biblical epics would be something I wouldn't necessarily care too much for and might eat up the time and resources of a lot of directors/actors/actresses/studios that I like if it catches on. Imagine another era of films like The Ten Commandments and such... not going to get me into the theatre. And I quite like going to the theatre. With Aronofsky though, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt - even if my ticket $$$ do eventually contribute to the biblical apocalypse of the theatres I prophesize (kind of) above. But how can't this be magnificent? I mean, Aronofsky's movie about Noah building the arc to survive the great flood was interrupted by... a flood! That's nuts...

David Bowie - Love is Lost

Bowie's visual output this year has been fantastic! Seriously, has he ever made this many videos in a year before? Keep it going Mr. Bowie, and be pre-pared if David Lynch asks you to reprise your role as the long-lost Philip Jefferies ("Well now, I'm not goin' to talk about Judy. In fact, we're not goin' to talk about Judy at all, we're going to keep her out of this.")

This is, of course, the remixed by James Murphy version and I think the arrival of this video answers my confusion a week to two about that other one.

I think.

Thanks to Brooklyn Vegan for this one, tho I'm sure it's everywhere by now.

Mario Bros. Indie trailer

I'm not a video game person at all, however the last video games I played were for the original nintendo. I was never a huge Mario Bros. aficionado but if your in your thirties it probably factored into your childhood at some point. But even with nostalgia I still don't care too much. This however, looks amazing.

Thanks to my good friend Anthony from Bittersweet and the B-Sides for turning me on to this.
