Dumb Drum infects KSEE 24 newsroom with Cross Streets

So you can read the full story and watch the amazing video by Heather McLane over at the Fresno Beehive but I’d be a bad blogger if I didn’t post this here. So yeah, we got on the news last night and this is what transpired. And sorry for getting that song in your head, pretty lady but be sure to tell your friends about Cross Streets :)

Dem Trailers: Tron Legacy

I was saddened when my print of Alice In Wonderland last week lacked this trailer because honestly, of all the upcoming 3D movies, this is the one I’m looking forward to checking out in the format. But for now, good ol’ 2D will do. Also, who would of thought the we’d have an Oscar winner in Flynn? Who cares, just check out the bad ass trailer and catch a glimpse of the world of Tron and pay attention to the music, especially when the sequencing when the title comes up. Man, I’m looking forward to the score & soundtrack (by Daft Punk) as much as the film itself. So what do you think? Are you going to a midnight screening?

Dem Trailers: Iron Man 2

Yes, it the first full Iron Man 2 trailer. And yes, it still looks pretty fucking cool.  It didn’t almost make me cry like the teaser did but fucking aye I wanna see this movie right now. Why are you still reading this and not watching the trailer. Or re-watching it again? Geez, priorities, people! And if you want it in HD, go over here to Apple.

Local director helms Reflection Eternal music video

“In This World” Reflection Eternal from Punit Dhesi on Vimeo.

For many, the name of the group Reflection Eternal means nothing. For hip-hop heads, the name carries some pretty hefty weight as the team of emcee Talib Kweli and producer Hi-Tek bring released an amazing album some years ago, parted ways for a moment and have now teamed up again to do another album titled Revolutions Per Minute, which drops April 20th. Local director Punit Dhesi was tapped to direct the music video for the first single off the album, In This World. The song is a strong cut (from talking to those who have listened to the entire album, I here it’s going to be one to remember) and look forward hearing the rest. For now, peep out the video and mad props to Punit and his team on the achievement.

Dem Reviews: Alice In Wonderland

As a relative n00b to the “Alice In Wonderland” universe, I had little to no expectations for the latest film from Tim Burton (not a huge fan but “Big Fish” was AMAZING!). Never read the books, never seen the movies and barely knew the characters. But the day before I saw this film, I watched the classic Disney animated film for the first time (The closest I had ever been to watching the film was Pogo’s remix song) and it did kinda put me in the proper state of mind because apparently because I ended up liking the film more than I thought I would. Like, a lot more. (Continue reading…)

Sony Playstation 2 turns 10-years-old today

I still remember the media hype 10 years ago when Sony was getting ready to launch the system that would not only revolutionize home theaters (PS2 was, for many, the introduction of DVD technology into their homes) but also the way we experienced video games. I remember the much hyped story where word was going around that the technology in the system was the same as that found in nuclear weapons. Fabricated hype? Maybe, but that shit worked because it made me want an equivalent of a WMD under my television. (Continue reading…)

Random Goodness: The Daily Show helps well-endowed blogger find a job

Wow, there’s just too many ways to attack this. Should I revel in the fact that “Yeah, nerd bloggers are well hung” or maybe the “Who needs a job when you got 13.5-inches of glory in your pants!?” angle would be better. Fuck it, I guess there’s no point in me chiming in. LADIES! Here’s where you come in (TWSS): Would you date an out of work video game blogger if he had a 13.5 inch penis? Discuss! And an apology to the ladies, but although this video game blogger already has a job, alas he cannot envelop a doorknob with his foreskin. But I’m working on it using a coupe of cinder blocks and twine.

Random Goodness: How Star Trek should have ended

Okay, after watching Star Trek again recently on the BluRayz I started thinking about how fucking good the film was, lens flares and all. But I like that the fellas from How It Should Have Ended have now tackled that very subject in their latest animated short. And the ending? Ah, man… CLASSIC!
