Watch me speed draw Cookie Monster from ‘Sesame Street’! It’s a Muppet-fun drawing experiment. I used pencil, Prismacolor markers and pen to do the drawing.
Note: I originally narrated as I drew, but in real time the video is 12 minutes long and I didn’t want to bore anyone. So this is done silent-film style!
I’ll have more speed drawings soon!
Scott Pilgrim: The Last Airbender. You must see this now, because it’s the perfect melding of two awesomely incredible things: Scott Pilgrim + Avatar the Last Airbender! Minor spoiler warning though, because there are minor plot points from Avatar the Last Airbender in the animation:
Perfect Score!!!
Adult Swim has posted the entire 4-minute Scott Pilgrim vs. the Animation, which is a flashback scene from the book. It is awesome. Here you go:
Now as I’ve been telling everyone lately, go see the movie!
Between seeing Scott Pilgrim vs. the World at an early screening this week (a review is coming), reading the manga, and getting the PS3 videogame, it’s been a pretty great week of Scott Pilgrim awesomeness. Maybe bordering on obsessive, because I also bought both soundtracks, which are fantastic!
Since the movie official opens today, lots of reviews are hitting (they’re mostly all positive). Here are two of my favorites:
In 15 to 20 years from now, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World will be seen as the defining movie of its respective generation, and if it isn’t, it should be. No movie has better encapsulated and satirized the interests and temperaments of contemporary youth, and no future movie is likely to surpass it…continue reading
SCOTT PILGRIM VS THE WORLD is a searing, incredibly touching comedy that hits everything it aims at and works on multiple levels. It is not, as it might appear, hipster-driven popcorn fare, but rather a wonderfully constructed fairy tale with an awful lot to say about the human condition. This isn’t just a great film – it is very easily Top 10 material. There is so much going on here, so much to parse out, that I find it impossible to dismiss as merely fun. SCOTT PILGRIM is brilliant – in every sense of the word. And it should be viewed and digested at the earliest opportunity. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED…continue reading
Both reviews really get it right. So go see Scott Pilgrim vs. the World ASAP!
In honor of Independence Day (popularly known as ‘The Fourth of July’, here’s Bjork‘s ‘Declare Independence‘ music video:
Happy Independence Day!
The teaser trailer for David Fincher‘s new Facebook film ‘The Social Network‘ is out. It’s based off of Ben Mezrich’s book The Accidental Billionaires: The Founding of Facebook: A Tale of Sex, Money, Genius and Betrayal
Here’s the teaser trailer:
This is a pretty great Apple iPad + Star Wars mashup that shows how some people originally reacted to the iPad announcement in January. But then it came out and was awesome, lol. (^_^)
Thanks to tuaw.com for the initial post!
It’s hard to believe I’ve already spent an entire month doing one drawing a day from The Empire Strikes Back! Today is the last day of the month, and all of the Star Wars films have been released over Memorial Day weekend. So today I’ve drawn the final shot from the film: Luke and Leia watching Lando and Chewie blast off in the Millennium Falcon to plan Han’s rescue.
It’s been quite a ride, and I hope you’ve enjoyed my month-long celebration of the 30th anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back!

The Empire Strikes Back, the second Star Wars film (and greatest film of all time) turned 30 on May 21st, 2010. I’m doing one drawing a day throughout May, 2010!
