i've been thinking about death a lot lately

It's good to remember that there's immaculate beauty in the world. I will definitely be visiting El Teide, which is Spain's highest mountain and where this was shot by Terje Sorgjerd this month. Fullscreen this mother.

Thunderball

Thunderball is now on Netflix for instant play. This is by far my favorite Bond movie for countless reasons. It's Sean Connery, the undisputed, best Bond, he uses a jetpack, there are sharks, an underwater war, several women, including one of my favorite Bond girls, annnd the film features the best delivery of the signature "Bond, James Bond" line.

Domino (Claudine Auger) is definitely up there with Honey Rider, Jill Masterton, Pussy Galore, Christmas Jones, Elekra King.... and who'm I kidding? There all pretty up there.

Toy Story 3

In case you, somehow, managed to miss it. Toy Story 3 is now available on Netflix for instant play. The movie's pretty phenomenal. As far as Toy Story's go, it's definitely on par. Not to mention the original Toy Story, which instantly made Pixar a household name, would probably make anyone's top ten list for best animated movies of all time. And while it's the final feature installment of the groundbreaking series, you should be happy to know that Disney/Pixar plan on making shorts with Buzz, Woody, and the gang, to be put before future movies.

Street Art by Banksy

Below is a link to an article on another blog, called Bored Panda, which features 80 pictures of street artist, Banks's, graffiti. Banksy is one of the most known street artists today and he recently directed a film called Exit Through the Gift Shop (which was nominated for Best Documentary at this year's Oscars). The film's really cool and gives a first hand look at the production of awesome vandalism. The film is currently available for Netflix Instant Play so if you like what you see and have a bit of time, I'd check that out.

Seu Jorge - Ziggy Stardust

Seu Jorge- Ziggy Stardust

This is a cover of David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust...personal favorite. Wes Anderson had this guy cover a bunch of Bowie songs for the soundtrack of his film The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou And since the movie is about a documentary film crew, Seu Jorge is actually in the film, and plays the guy who does the soundtrack for the movies they make.. making it a kind of russian doll situation.

Anyways, I recommend checking out Seu's other renditions of Bowie songs, as well as checking out the movie.

Song from "The Jerk"

The Jerk is up there in my favorite comedies of all time. It's one of those perfect movies and I believe it's still on Netflix Instant in case you haven't seen it. This is a cute little scene and song from the movie... i'm mainly posting it for the song, if you haven't seen the movie you might wanna skip the rest of the scene.

gypsy band

So I saw the movie Wristcutters: A Love Story which is an interesting film by Goran Dukic and is a dark romance/fantasy/comedy? Anyways the movie was pretty enjoyable and one of the supporting characters was fantastic and happened to be based off of the lead singer in the band Gogol Bordello which is a crazy cool gypsy band. here's a link to two videos on youtube of songs from them I dig.
