Kino’s Journey (Anime) - 4 of 5
Posted by Barron CreativityFilm and VideoLivingJapanReview CommentsPermalink

While looking through the Aerostich catalog I noticed they were selling an anime named “Kino’s Journey”. I checked for it on Netflix and saw that the 15 episode series was available so I put it in my queue. The story is about a traveler, Kino, and her talking motorcycle, Hermes. They travel the semi-fictitious world, stopping and visiting many different countries. These countries vary in size, technology, and culture. Each episode is a small self-contained story and usually has some insight into human behavior. I found the series to be pretty interesting, sometimes shocking, sometimes funny. But most of all, I enjoyed the motorcycle footage. It looked like a cool “motorrad”. The opening and closing theme songs are really good too. When I was riding my motorcycle last week, I couldn’t get the opening song out of my head!

IMAX Hubble 3D
Posted by Barron CreativityFilm and Video CommentsPermalink

We saw the IMAX Hubble 3D movie on July 4th at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. It was incredible, fantastic, awe-inspiring, and actually made me proud of the good ol USA. (A couple tears welled up even) The footage of the space shuttle blasting off was amazing. Hawaii got some screen-time as well, with a great shot from orbit and opening/closing IZ song. I highly recommend this IMAX feature!

This is the best Pokemon theme song. Right Mikey? I like the season 4 version of the same tune too:

The theme song from Magerarenai Onna. I’m becoming a big fan of Aiko.

Bill Cosby - Himself
Posted by Barron CreativityFilm and VideoPersonalFunny CommentsPermalink

My friend Chris and I were IMing about the iPad, and one of the comments was “5) my iphone really pisses me off, why would i want to amplify that experience?” and then I thought of the classic Bill Cosby stand-up, Himself. Particularly his comment about cocaine at around 4:00 in the video above. I used to have the whole thing on VHS back in the day. Love it.
