This movie.

all these years later and simply seeing this set of pictures just scared the living shit out of me.

Sadly, I played this at a recent horror movie marathon and it doesn’t hold up at all.

But this scene has stayed in my mind forever and the noise being made have stuck in my mind forever.

Dan K's Blog: Everyone's a Critic: Unpacking Rotten Tomatoes' Ratings Data:

dfkoz:

Everyone has had this experience: you’re trying to decide what movie to watch, so you see what Rotten Tomatoes has to say. What you find fairly often, however, is confusing: This Means War receives a 25% rating from critics and a 72% rating from audiences, while 8 Mile nets a 76% rating from…

Data, data, data and movies.

ninjaink:

‎”Heisenberg and the Cartel of Death” is a 2008 American adventure film. It is the fourth film in the Heisenberg franchise which stars the titular character, a famous meth-cook, cancer survivor, and mild mannered chemistry teacher by day. In this installment, he takes on a young junkie protege and inadvertently stumbles upon a Santa Muerte-worshiping cartel using a chicken stand as a front for their criminal operations.

Startup Weekend Detroit 4 was hosted the weekend of February 17, 2012, at the M@dison Building, home of Detroit Venture Partners.

More than 100 wannabe and current entrepreneurs from around North America attended and created real products and startups over the course of a single weekend.

This is what I spent my weekend doing. If you want to see what a Startup Weekend is like or what my thinking face looks like, watch this video.

Art of the Title: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo:

maniacalrage:

One of my favorite title sequences of the past few years. I love reading Art of the Title—they’re thoughtful and thorough and it’s so much fun to read how these things get made.

Having absolutely loved the title sequence for The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, it was a pleasure to be able to re-watch it and read through this interview.

[Flash 10 is required to watch video.]

This weekend I took part in a Startup Weekend event in Detroit. The idea and team I worked on liked the idea of bookmarks, but thought that it was too easy to save a page and then forget exactly what about it was important to you.

We thought, what if you could just save the part of the page you wanted the most and organize based on that?

The above video displays what we were able to put together during the weekend competition.

While you’re definitely able to sign up for it now, be wary that it’s very alpha.

anniehinton:

I bought these boots in a size 8 on ebay and thought they fit me well so I wore them like 4 times but I was wrong and they are too big and I can’t return them. So I figured I’d toss them up on tumblr before I put them back on ebay. Anyone interested in these? I got them for $100 on ebay, but plan on taking a fairly substantial hit because I wore them. Anyone? Bueller?

One more example where e-commerce belongs on Tumblr.

Imagine if Tumblr could leverage Annie’s graph (those that follow her) and be a middle-man to the transaction that she could possibly complete with one of her followers.

I’m sure lots of people would buy stuff from the trusted relationships they’ve built up over Tumblr.

synecdoche:

It should be that you should definitely not keep a poland spring bottle of water next to a poland spring bottle filled with gin next to each other on your night stand because when you wake up at 6AM dying of dehydration and grab one to chug without looking, there is a 50/50 chance it will not end well.

This is a game of Russian Roulette you can play on your own.

I’m just, like, really angry. I’m on the bus and I want to shake my fist toward the heavens and yell “GOSSSSSSSSLLINNNNNNG” because the dude is just that handsome, and I am not.
