I don’t know if this is hilarious or terrifying.
Last night I went to Olive Garden with some friends. It was fun. When I came out, though, and got back in my car, I saw something on my windshield. I had already gotten in my car, so I opened the door and reached around to grab it – and it was this:
The sticker says “HER?” on it. It’s probably my favorite running joke from Arrested Development. If you don’t get it, well, maybe you should just watch the show.
I emailed this person last night and told them I got it off of cafepress.com, which has a lot of pretty cool stuff if you look around long enough.
But… basically, that made my whole night.
Guys, I am ridiculously proud of this. I made it for my Production Methods class. We had to make a silent movie and edit it with Final Cut Pro, which is a program that took me like forever to figure out but now that I know what I’m doing, is really fun to mess with.
Anyway, it’s called “Patricia’s Moving Picture” because that’s the name of the song she’s dancing to (by The Go! Team) and stars Abbey, Ashlee and Aaron, who all have names that start with A, therefore that’s the grade I should get.
Today in my Production Methods class we got a visit from the people behind the grassroots marketing campaign for the documentary film Walking on Dead Fish, which is about football players from all different schools who were displaced by Hurricane Katrina coming together on one team and overcoming their differences and economic depression in the face of extreme hardship. It opens in Waco this weekend and will be playing for two weeks, and I’m going to go see it because I want to support the project and it looks good… and also the fact that I’ll get extra credit for it, but really that’s beside the point. I’m not sure when it’ll be coming out in other places, but I know it’ll be spreading around the country over the next few months. I’ve heard that it has been picked up to be remade into a Hollywood film by Universal, and apparently Harrison Ford is currently attached… but you know how quickly those things can change.
Anyway, here’s the trailer for it:
Documentary number two is a movie I discovered on Hulu when I went there to check and see if the latest presidential debate was uploaded yet. It’s about Crawford, Texas and what it’s been like over the past eight years since President Bush moved there. I wish I could embed the whole movie on here but since WordPress is picky about what it wants us to be able to easily embed on our websites, I can’t. But here’s the link to it, and I found the trailer on youtube:
Check it out.
