Miscellaneous

Here's some random stuff that I just didn't bother to categorize:



Shane Acker's Original Short Film "9"
P.S: It seems only appropriate that I post this considering that my blog is named after his creations. 




Eduard Khill singing "Trololo" (I don't think that's the title of the song, but I don't know the real name)
*Warning: This is just scary. Side effects may including laughing to death* 


Opening to "Stress Relief" from The Office (US Version)
*Sorry, but this is the best quality that I could find this video on youtube... it's still funny*

The Official Music Video for "Smelly Cat"
*This was actually requested by one of my (few) viewers, so enjoy.*
 
Clips from my favorite Seinfeld episode

Amazing Movie Soundtracks

I absolutely LOVE movie soundtracks, and here are some that I believe deserve recognition:

 Cliff Martinez's Solaris Soundtrack
"Don't Blow It" 


Clint Mansell's Moon Soundtrack
"Welcome to Lunar Industries"


 
Clinton Shorter's District 9 Soundtrack
"Heading Home" 


John Murphy's Sunshine Soundtrack
"Sunshine (Adagio in D Minor)"
*The actually melody starts at about 0:40*


 
Daft Punk's Tron Legacy Soundtrack
"Derezzed"
(P.S: Okay, this song is just COOL!)  


 
Elliot Goldenthal's Sphere Soundtrack
"The Gift"

David Julyan's The Descent Soundtrack
"The Lair"
*At least listen to the part at 1:09*
*This whole soundtrack is really, really creepy, and I imagine that the movie is way creepier, but it's a good soundtrack*


 
Epic Score
"I Still Have A Soul"

Stitchpunk Gallery

Hey all of you crazy obssessed Star Trekies!!! Any of you seen Shane Acker's "9"? Well, I sure have (I think that you've figured that out already, though). As soon as I saw it, I just had to figure out how to make the "stitchpunks". So, here are some of the end results. Enjoy!

I can't remember what number this one was, but I think it was in the 50's... 56 maybe?
