Remember those videos I posted back on Halloween of a house featuring an amazing light show? Well after that LMFAO video went totally viral, LMFAO actually showed up at his house to do a video:
LMFAO even made use of his house for the American Music Awards:
He also created a great light show for “Sexy And I Know It”:
Props Matt whose post reminded me to post an update.
While the first G.I. Joe movie was decent but nothing special, this next one looks to be quite a good time. I can’t wait.
Okay, so it’s not quite that bad but it’s not too far off. 😉
A cool video made up of a series of time-lapse images taken from the International Space Station:
Here’s the description from the original choppy version of the video:
A time-lapse taken from the front of the International Space Station as it orbits our planet at night. This movie begins over the Pacific Ocean and continues over North and South America before entering daylight near Antarctica. Visible cities, countries and landmarks include (in order) Vancouver Island, Victoria, Vancouver, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles. Phoenix. Multiple cities in Texas, New Mexico and Mexico. Mexico City, the Gulf of Mexico, the Yucatan Peninsula, El Salvador, Lightning in the Pacific Ocean, Guatemala, Panama, Columbia, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Lake Titicaca, and the Amazon. Also visible is the earths ionosphere (thin yellow line), a satellite (55sec) and the stars of our galaxy.
So beautiful.
After two months of driving a beater in order to get good at driving stick and better at driving in general, I’ve moved on to a significantly better car — a 2001 Ford Mustang GT. I picked it up last Saturday night and it has a 260 horsepower V8 with a 5 speed stick shift. It is amazingly fun to drive and is really quick (at least to me, heh).
More pictures can be found over in the thread I made on some forums I run.
Here’s some video I made using my GoPro. It looks like I’m going slower than I actually am due to the wide angle lens and because I have it mounted on the top of my windshield. 😉
As you may be aware, I’m a big fan of time-lapse star videos. They’re so beautiful and remind me just how insignificant we are in the big scheme of things.
The following one is made from a series of photographs by Stéphane Guisard and José Francisco Salgado of the European Southern Observatory that were taken at the Very Large Telescope in the Chilean desert.
I strongly recommend watching it in fullscreen and 720p HD.
Also here’s a little reminder that we’re the ones rotating rather than the stars (you might want to mute the bad music):
A quite impressive bit of programming:

This is rather amazing:

Behind the scenes:
This one is better than the one I posted before:
I know I post a lot of movie trailers, but sush — it’s my blog and I can do as I please. 😛
Here’s the trailer for “Tron: Legacy”. It’s probably going to be crap, but it still looks fun. Plus it has the gorgeous Olivia Wilde in it, so it can’t be that bad. 😉
