About.me - Nicely done? Yeah.

Hello everyone. I Just opened an about.me page. It links all of your social network sites, including specific URLs if the service isn't covered. I was initially annoyed when I discovered it's offered by AOL (which actually isn't as bad as it used to be, homepage wise). However, you never actually have to visit their site. The interface is very user-friendly and almost entirely customizable. Very nicely designed.

The Random Adventures of Brandon Generator

noreply@blogger.com (Ink♥Sketch) — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 16:38:00 PDT

An online comic that YOU can help to write. Great idea. The first episode makes me want to see more. I Love Tommy Lee Edwards illustration style in this. Great narrator choice and audio (music and effects) as well. Maybe you can be part of it.

Check it out.

The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore

noreply@blogger.com (Ink♥Sketch) — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 10:55:00 PST

Unfortunately, this video was removed from Vimeo. Please visit the studio's page to view the preview.

https://vimeo.com/moonbot

From Moonbot Studios on Vimeo . A 2012 Oscar-Nominated Animated Short.

Inspired, in equal measures, by Hurricane Katrina, Buster Keaton, The Wizard of Oz, and a love for books, “Morris Lessmore” is a poignant, humorous allegory about the curative powers of story. Using a variety of techniques, including miniatures, computer animation, and 2D animation, award‐winning author and illustrator William Joyce and co‐director Brandon Oldenburg present a hybrid style of animation that harkens back to silent films and MGM Technicolor musicals.

Tower Records on Sunset! Tower Records in East LA! How I miss you!

I was so bummed out when I found out that ~~the company was going out of business and that~~ all of those wonderful stores would be closed (U.S. Retail Stores).
Please donate to this project and help to share the memories and further immortalize this sorely missed house of music. They have 44 days to come up with their goal of $50,000. Any amount above $1.00 is accepted and certainly appreciated. Contributions of $5.00 or more will receive a Thank You in the film credits. Contributions of $10.00 or more will get goodies (goodies get bigger as contribution goes up). Thank you Colin Hanks for documenting one of my favorite stores ever.

Paul... Go see it. NOW!

noreply@blogger.com (Ink♥Sketch) — Sun, 20 Mar 2011 00:38:00 PDT

I was going to wait to see this, don't ask me why. I don't think there was any movie currently out other than Rango, that I've been wanting to see. So anyhow, you know how cool alien movies are? Well, Paul is just so much cooler. I didn't know how they were gonna handle this but Simon Pegg and Nick Frost were just hilarious and Seth Rogan does a spot on job as Paul. The writing was just so right on and the alien movie refrences scattered throughout were awesome. Also, Jason Bateman is such a badass in this film. It's definitely one that you will want to see more than once.

Expect spoilers after the jump.

Rango Walks the Walk!

noreply@blogger.com (Ink♥Sketch) — Sat, 05 Mar 2011 19:24:00 PST

Last night I went to the movies with my family to see Rango.
I didn’t really know what to expect. I like most of Johnny Depp’s work and I also love a good western. I think I was worried about it being too cutesy. This was not an issue at all.

Super Meta Supernatural!

noreply@blogger.com (Ink♥Sketch) — Tue, 22 Feb 2011 11:58:00 PST

I can not wait until Friday! Am I the only one that thinks that this is going to be the best episode of the season? In the world of Supernatural, meta episodes are the funniest (see previous episodes, The Real Ghostbusters and The Monster at the End of This Book). Hilarity ensues when, Azazel, trying to be helpful, zaps Sam and Dean into an alternate reality where they are actually actors, Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles, playing the characters Sam and Dean Winchester. Oh and Misha Collins plays Castiel/Misha Collins. Ha haaa! This is going to be a long week.

In Line for a Discount (Boarders Bankruptcy)

noreply@blogger.com (Ink♥Sketch) — Sun, 20 Feb 2011 19:07:00 PST

Today I went to a Boarders bookstore in my area (one of the locations that are being closed due to the bankruptcy). While using the elevator, I realized that one of the employees was standing next to me. Er, an employee that will soon be out of work. I suddenly felt very awkward with my arms full of books, like a vulture picking the bones of a carcass. He was very nice and asked if I

Happy Birthday Jules Verne!

noreply@blogger.com (Ink♥Sketch) — Tue, 08 Feb 2011 17:53:00 PST

Fan of classic adventure and sci-fi? Today is Jules Verne's Birthday.

The author of numerous works of fiction that have fueled the imagination of people all over the world. I found this a crazy coincidence (today being his birthday) because mine was 2 days ago and I was in a bookstore looking for one of his books! Haha, well there you go. Please click here to find out more info about this great author. Also, Google has all kinds of links setup in celebration of his b-day as well here.

Fan Response to Bumped CW Shows Smallville and Supernatural

noreply@blogger.com (Ink♥Sketch) — Sat, 29 Jan 2011 07:14:00 PST

SPN Fan Created .gif

As every Supernatural fan already knows, the CW recently bumped the Winter hiatus return by a week. What's interesting and not at all a surprise is how much of a furor that action has caused across the internet. We Supernatural fans are known to be "rabid" and "extremely loyal". So, I give you the following links to some examples of the very verbal responses (see the comments sections as well as the articles) of Supernatural fan frustration over what we see as the continuously poor treatment of one of the greatest shows on television today.

Misa Digital Guitar...What's The Verdict?
