Boston’s Regan Smith Clarke Turns One; Remains Fresh
I went to school and lived in the Boston area for most of my 20s. I can safely say that for the most part, the MA youth dress like shit (OL bloggers excluded). Lots of “Yankees Suck” shirts and “Believe in Boston” caps with battle-damaged brims. That’s where Regan Smith Clarke steps in.
Inspired by vintage signs and advertisements, RSC is a Boston-based clothing company that’s been turning heads for a year now with their solid designs and integrity. Created by a Boston local who thought it’d be a good idea to name a clothing company after himself, RSC currently slings tees, hoodies, tote bags, and prints adorned with original designs that truly POP! To celebrate their first birthday, RSC has released a commemorative shirt, the “Year One.” And now, there’s an app for that!

New Pic of Emma Frost And Sebastian Shaw From X-Men: First Class
Empire Magazine has a news article with a new picture of Emma Frost and Sebastian Shaw from X-Men: First Class. Condemn all the fucking promotional materials surrounding this flick! Every time more promo shit leaks out of this movie’s guts, the more excited I get. I’ve gone from “Meh, this is probably going to blow” to “Holy shit, this could be tight.”

Zelda: Skyward Sword Gets A New Trailer; Wave That Phallus!
I keep forgetting that Skyward Sword exists. Amidst all the gritty, HGH-fueled bullshittery that I’m currently anticipating, it lurks in the background. A new trailer from GDC 11 has dropped, and I’ve consequently remembered how excited I am for this installment. Nothing like a magical romp through a familiar but modified universe to keep it nostalgic stylee. Despite all the Zelda games feeling somewhat derivative of one another, the gameplay is so finely honed, and the formula so delicious, I’ll happily slurp this shit up.

California Gets Its Own Nebula; Swank and Cosmic.
Enlarge. | Via.
Oh shit! Just when you thought that California couldn’t be any more out of touch with reality, the son of a bitch has taken to the cosmos. The California Nebula, or if you want to call it by its slave name, NGC 1499, is straight-up chilling out in Orion’s Arm, in our own goddamn galaxy. We’re famous!
iPad 2 Is Revealed; My Techdong Throbs.
Apple dropped the bombshell that ignited the dirtying of millions of acolytes’ panties today. Boom!, the Apple iPad 2. Sometimes there’s an advantage to be a bumbling asshole graduate student. It prevents me from splurging on things I don’t need. Despite working thirty hours a week, I’m paid shit for working “eight”, and the poverty assures that this thing will remain out of my hands. I don’t need this shit, but it ignites such a techdork part of me into a frenzy that is incalculable by modern mathematical rubrics.
Fuck, is it hot.
American Revenge
Inspired by John Shelton Lawrence and Robert Jewett’s study, Myth of the American Superhero and my ever loving hard-on for Charles Bronson, the “American Revenge” mix features clips from some of my favorite vigilante movies. The beginning features footage from the videotaped confessions of Bernhard Goetz (aka the Subway Vigilante). With the mix, I leaned towards some lesser known films and excluded any rogue cops (sorry, Dirty Harry).
I’m not the best editor in the world, but I hope you like it and I hope you share it.
“Whereas the classical monomyth seemed to reflect rites of initiation, the American monomyth derives from tales of redemption…combining elements of the selfless servant who impassively gives his life for others and the zealous crusader who destroys evil.” – Myth of the American Superhero
Quentin Tarantino’s Next Flick Is A Spaghetti Western; Here’s The Details.

Today’s pick: the “Suite” from Jerry Goldsmith’s score for Outland (1981).

Sucker Punch Is A Musical! Boneheads’ Boners Shrink.
Everything about Zack Snyder’s forthcoming Sucker Punch has been marketed to the permanently adolescent juvenile boner brigade. Everything. This is a movie that is playing on dudes’ most basic desires to see chicks kick ass in skimpy skirts in environments and scenarios rendered from their comic book and video game infested brains. This marketing has worked on me. Worked well. What blew my mind today was something that the marketing has gone to great lengths to not mention. Sucker Punch has musical numbers. It looks like every dude with arrested development should buckle up, because this movie could very well be Glee for Dudes With Stained Undies.
