From the inside of the SXSW Playboy party
In Austin, Texas during the SXSW Festival, the Playboy party is pretty much everything you'd expect. Almost all the drinks involve Jack Daniel's. Everything you sit on is glittery enough for a Mariah Carey video. Bunnies and the men who guard them stroll amongst the common folk (although in this alternate universe the "common folk" look like they were flown in from Los Angeles). Dudes in raccoon costumes are posing for photos. And, oh look! It's Perez Hilton! In Austin, Texas during the SXSW Festival, the Playboy party is pretty much everything you'd expect.

Heavy Metal in Baghdad
This film featured at SXSW in Austin, Texas, March 12th, and once again on MARCH 15th!
I'm curious to know how Texans' perceptions of Iraqis (or Arabs in general) may have changed after seeing them with Metallica shirts and Iron Maiden cd's, banging on drums and moshing together like a good ol' mullet rally in a heavy metal parking lot!

You're such Beautiful Losers
It's the last day of the film festival here in SXSW :(. But don't despair, it's ok, the music festival starts today, hurray! I've been seeing some great films, including Aaron Rose and Joshua Leonard's film, Beautiful Losers. If you're a fan of graffiti and crazy graphic art, this is the right film for you as it follows the rise of a group of artists inspired by the subcultures in their town.
It's worth watching just to see Harmony Korine scare some children with stories of severed heads!

Timo Vuorensola talks about Star Wreck
Maker of Star Wreck, talks his experience.
According to Wikipedia: Star Wreck is a series of Finnish Star Trek parody movies started by in 1992. The first movie, simply named Star Wreck, was a simple Star Control–like animation with three ships shooting at each other, but later movies featured 3D CGI, animated characters, weird humour and in the latest films, live actors. Often Star Wreck is used to refer to the latest and most popular film Star Wreck: In the Pirkinning.
Star Wreck relates the adventures of James B. Pirk (named after the Star Trek character James T. Kirk), Captain of the starship C.P.P. Potkustartti (English C.P.P. Kickstart). Other characters include Mr. Fukov, Mr. Spook (Finnish: Mr. Spökö), Mr. Dwarf (Wuf), Ensign Shitty and Mr. Info (loosely based, respectively, on Star Trek's Pavel Chekov, Mr. Spock, Worf, Scotty, and Data). The characters speak Finnish, but subtitles in various languages, including Klingon, are availab Maker of Star Wreck, talks his experience. ... more -
