This is a sample pic I retouched for a job application today. The photo itself is horrible, but I picked it because the hard light on the skin makes the original really difficult to retouch. Anyway, I didn’t take it as far as I could have, but I think I did a pretty good job, [...]

Congratulations, Dave! Morpheus and Neo from The Matrix. This was a hard one. Way to go!
These new ones have been more cryptic. The reason is because at first I was experimenting with your ability to recognize a specific face based solely on one feature. Now I’m testing your subconscious mind. In the last three of [...]

Answer: Daniel Day Lewis as Nathaniel in Last of the Mohicans. Don’t know how you guessed it so fast, but I’ll give you the full ten points, even though you didn’t guess the character name. Nice job, Daniel.

Guess the name of the person represented in the movie still above. You get 5 points for the [...]

I had a couple of days off this week, so instead of being responsible, I decided to veg out on a video game. Since I’ve exhausted the supply of good rentals from my local Blockbuster, I chose a quaint little game called Eternal Sonata.
Okay: What’s with JRPGs? They suck. They all have these stupid long [...]

The new Metalocalypse episode finally arrived on Cartoon Network today. It’s called The Revengencers.
What a cool title! Combining two words that mean almost the same thing into one word that means the same thing but way more brutal. Awesome. Metalocalypse creators, you are geniuses.

Spider House has several sister stores. One of them is the United States Art Authority, which is a really cool bar that is also an art gallery. This is a picture of the bar part. It’s super weird and I love it.
Speaking of super weird, check out this stool I saw at a thrift store [...]
Radio Ga Ga

This music video was inspired by Metropolis. In fact, much of the black and white footage in the video was taken directly from the movie. It should give you some idea of how cool Metropolis is. We’re talking about a 1920s sci-fi movie, here!
By the way, the song is really cool. [...]

One of the perks of working at Spider House is that I get free video rentals from their sister store, I Luv Video. It’s been really fun! They have the most obscure video collection ever. I’m talking about kung fu movies I’ve never even heard of, which is saying something.
The other day I rented Metropolis, [...]

Congratulations, Tony! The answer is David Bowie as Jareth the Goblin King from Labyrinth. Great job!
For everyone who didn’t get the answer right, great job anyway! There were some good guesses that time. New contest coming soon!
