Okay, fine, I've been watching too many movies this summer; well, more than is typical of me, at least -- four in four weeks (three, technically, since I watched Pirates twice). Which means that I helped fuel that revenue surge that smashed the box office into all kind of pulp for a few weeks there. But if I have to sit through another commercial for Rat-tat-tat-a-tat-toe-ear I swear I'm boycotting the theatres for the rest of the summer. Bad enough to spend five freakin' dollars on a bag of corn kernels and butter (maintenance on those poppers must be insane), but to chug it all down while watching a six-minute commercial that all but spells out the movie for you -- a movie I think I'd shave mountain lions rather than see -- is just almost too much for my spirit, or my wallet, to bear.
Speaking of which, check out this awesome -- or at least passably readable -- summer double feature from Texas Tech Today (featuring a story by your's truly). If you are a Texas Tech student, professor, whatever, check this out. The Library now has a 3-D animation lab. There are all kinds of fun toys for creating animated sequences. Here's the story. Be there or be square... but not Square Enix.
