The evolution of music, deer, Iphones, Sweden, and Blueray.
Couches, Get to know Ori, humor, misc, movie reviews, music, video Add commentsMany people have asked me for more “Day in the life” kind of stuff. I was at Kevin & Will’s to hang, and eat fried Deer and southern food. I’ll start with a video (shot on my webcam):
This came later in the night though. And if you don’t recognize my weird noises, I’m making a tribute to the Muppets Bohemian Rhapsody video.The one who’s being quiet in the video is Will’s friend from Sweden.
I had couchsurfed with Kevin & Will before. This time I was just visiting, because I’ve been in town for nearly two weeks, and we had yet to hang out. His mom was in town too, and someone as crazy as Will.. I gotta see where he came from. She was pretty damn funny! In fact….. Since she was prepping dinner, and Fried Deer was part of it, I described the episode of the Chapelle Show where Tyrone wins on Fear Factor… after eating Deer Penis.
She started talking about the various balls.. testicles if you prefer… that she’s eaten. Talking about Calf Balls for example, so… me… being a goofball… I say “You know… I’m from Israel, and us jews have this one animal called a Matzoh. We castrate them, and we use their balls specifically for soup. You ever heard of Matzoh Ball Soup?” She has heard of it. I wasn’t even trying to keep a straight face– she didn’t notice, since she was prepping dinner. She thought I was being serious. Will set her straight, and I laughed my ass off.
I was able to tell her many jokes which I normally wouldn’t tell peoples’ parents! Lots of fun was had. While dinner was prepping, we watched Rambo, First Blood…. or at least a portion of it. But then once the food was ready, we popped in Fight Club on BlueRay. Holy crap!
I’ve seen Fight Club. We all had. In fact, 5 of us had it memorized, and Kevin had even me beat as far as being able to recite more quotes from the movie than me. All in all, you could have muted the movie, and we would’ve recited it just fine.
Everything looked amazing on this tv! Seriously! It was a Samsung UN46B8000 LED HDTV if I’m not mistaken. It was as thick as my cell phone! Rambo was being broadcast in high-def, and the thing that didn’t match up to the amazing feel of the movie was the audio… the sound effects back then are not what they are now, that’s for sure!
So… Fight Club in Blue Ray was amazing on the Samsung UN46B8000! At first I wasn’t paying attention, I was watching my friend Brendan’s new ustream show… then I glimpsed up and saw the movie, and was stunned. Whatever it is they did to this movie, it did not look or feel the same as the Fight Club I had seen so many times! It was so sharp, and vivid, and I think they did something to the footage. It looked like HDRI to me. It had so much depth. It was like being there in the movie! I got off the couch, and sat in a chair which I moved even closer to the tv. This needed to be watched up close!
After 30 minutes, my brain forgot that everything was so amazing, and I was back to just enjoying the movie. But then, every time a scene that was artfully lit, or had some effect in it.. .I would remember again, that this was some new alien technology. Look at my Avatar movie review, and read my future predictions…. I didn’t even take into account the improved quality of the displays. People are just not going to leave the house!
It was after the movie that they showed me the apps you saw in the video above. We jammed out on Ipods for a bit. Then they showed me a clip that is not on this blueray, but is on another one… not sure which one has it- this is Brad Pitt & Ed Norton singing about a Penis.
This is not to be confused with Rodney Carrington’s song “Dear Penis” -
