Poll: Where do your HD loyalties lie?

In light of recent news that Warner Bros picked Blu-ray over HD-DVD, there’s talk that the HD format war is essentially over, as nearly 75 percent of all studios pick Blu. Paramount and Universal, the last of the big five movie studios, are rumored to be following suit in an effort to avoid consumer confusion at retail.

Even though I own a Blu-ray player, I’m kind of rooting for a stale mate so we can bypass optical media altogether and go straight to downloads. I don’t even buy Blu-ray movies (only renting them) because I’m unconvinced that’s how HD should be consumed. Sure, the picture is gorgeous, though to a lesser extent than the transition from VHS to DVD. So I ask…

Ron Paul is classy, aggressive policy aside

As seen on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno discussing his recent exclusion from a Fox News Republican debate, and why Mitt Romney shouldn’t lose the nomination because of his religion (filmed Jan. 7, 2008). Vote Ron Paul.

Man surfs enormous wave without dying

I imagine this is what Brodhi looked like riding the fifty year storm in Point Break before drowning in peril. Amazing.

Wingsuit base jumpers are incredible!

A tale of two Ron Paul TV promos

TV Spot #1: Horribly bad acting. Laughable. A waste of money.

TV Spot #2: Direct, effective, though slightly forgettable.

(One) of the best music videos, ever.

I may have spoke to soon regarding my previous “best music video ever” comment as I forgot about this 2:21 minute gem; Wax’s California directed by Spike Jonze in 1995. The shot allegedly only took 12 seconds to shoot, but the execution (not to mention the premise) was flawless. Nice!
