Further, Mr. Olmos is quite cool. He came to give a talk to my university and wanted to show one of "his" films, but couldn't find a copy of it, so he told the student assistants and faculty to find one on the internet, because he knew that they were there. When the question of piracy came up, because it's an official institution and they don't want to get involved, he said, "it's my movie and I give you permission." Everyone then proceeded to watch a pirated version of his work, complete with somewhat off audio.

The version of that (awesome) movie that I saw released here in Texas was still using proper accents. It would not have been nearly the same with Americans playing the roles.

It's because British Television still has it's head screwed on straight. Check my American-gone-British blog at queensforgottenchildren.blogspot.com

The Doctor is on the money... sort of. The bills the ATM (er, cashpoint in British, I think) spit out in The Runaway Bride were made by the prop's department and bear the Doctor's likeness, along with the text "I promise to pay the bearer on demand the sum of 10 satsumas."

[...] My brother helped me extract the hard drive, the brains if you will, from the corpse of my old dusty dead computer like a crazed techno-zombie unflinching and unfaltering in his onslaught. Either that or you could explain it as similar to Vikings drinking mead out of the skulls of their enemies, only instead of mead it’s data. The ruined and blasted remains of the wretched and annihilated dead PC was thrown out into the rubbish when all the useful parts were harvested. Because that’s the Outback barbarian hellscape we grew up with in Australia. [...]

Four things:

1) This comic is hilarious.
2) That is so awesome about Olmos Productions.
3) I also currently have an allergic reaction rash due to something I ingested, so you have my utmost sympathy, and
4) What happened to the WIZARD NEEDS HUG BADLY tee shirt in the HE store?

Don’t listen to Anonymous Bosch. The real reason we don’t throw shrimp on the barbie is because they can’t fight back. There’s no flamin’ sport. What we actually do: we feed TV executives full of shrimp, and then we throw THOSE bastards on the barbie. Like Turducken, except with seafood wrapped in a fatty, slimy coating of indeterminate proteins.
