You Wished Your Living Room Were Big Enough To Build This

franky — Fri, 29 Oct 2010 00:09:35 +0000

Every now so often one sees something and is totally taken back in time. Nostalgic moments, wanting to do even better than what you just saw but then you realise the most important thing.

Your living room isn’t big enough and nor is the backyard of your UK based based terrace house. All you’re left to do is hit Replay and pine away. Pine away because even if you had the luxury of a house with a big enough garden… you wouldn’t have the time patience or money for it.

Life’s a beeyatch but Youtube’s always there for you to remind you of all that. The only thing missing in all it are cute kittehz. Sit down, have a drink because the next 3’34″ are going to take you back and make you wish you were 6 years old all over again.

It’s not that I have forgotten about you gals and guys, but this tab usually is buried somewhere amid another 30 and 40 tabs. Ok, ok excuses of course and the real excuse should be that I was busy, right? Of course not that I barely ever have opened my feedreader recently, right?

Luckily we still love LEGO here at frankylicious HQ and e mark this return with the Story of Adult Fans of Lego

James May can not sleep on a LEGO mattress

franky — Mon, 21 Dec 2009 23:47:11 +0000

Remember how we all got excited about James May’s LEGO house? Full scale ~~excited~~ LEGO house.

The guys over at the Beeb certainly had fun with our money, holding the episode back but this year, Christmas will not bring you the eternal Christmas carols and evergreen movies, but instead we get James May in his LEGO House and the last episodes of the Tenth Doctor.

Are you excited already? I sure am but of course the Beeb has other plans again. Instead they released a teaser video on the Tube today.

Lady GaGa goes Victorian Burtonesque

franky — Mon, 21 Dec 2009 02:03:46 +0000

There was no possible way one could imagine to ever make us endorse Lady GaGa. And then the impossible happened.

Lady Gaga, Victorian, Burtonesque.

Obviously whenever someone goes totally Burton on us, we become weak. Add some Victorian style to the mix and we are lost.
Yes, I wished I were at the the concert at the Royal Albert Hall to see this one song with a 20ft high piano. Screw the 20ft trail to the dress but look at the feet of the piano.

The video is best watched without sound.

Star Wars The Phantom Menace Review

franky — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 11:34:31 +0000

This is 70 minutes long but contrarily to me you probably have nothing to do on this Saturday, so you might as well do something useful and watch this awesome review in 7 parts.

Enjoy it.

Holy frackin’ Tarantino Mixtape!

franky — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 13:32:24 +0000

The problem with looking for cool stuff is that whenever you discover some really cool things and want to go and devote your time at the important things in life, like play Shivering Isles… you discover something else. So right on the heels of the new Alice in Wonderland trailer, we present you this totally awesome Tarantino mixtape.

Yes, we are fans of Quentin here at frankylicious. And of his soundtracks. Now the guys at Eclectic Method went further and created an awesome mixtape of his soundtracks. With just as awesome video.

The most embarassing? The video is 7 months old and we only discovered it now!

Tim Burton does war. Alice in Wonderland style.

franky — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 12:37:50 +0000

Alice in Wonderland does war Tim Burton style? That’s right folks, the second trailer for AiW has been released and with every new bit of information we receive this movie is more and more becoming the epic movie highlight of 2010. And we even haven’t seen the movie yet. How’s that?

That’s it. I’m outta here. Playing Oblivion, Shivering Isles.

Guitar Hero House

franky — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 11:35:26 +0000

Ok, ok… I’m slow with this one and could have posted it before everyone had already seen it but hey… boy’s gotta do what they have to do or?

Or something like that or watch the newest Big Bang Theory episode. Gosh, I am more and more starting to like Penny. Perfect typecasting.

Anyway. So yeah. Ric Turner just did it. No he wasn’t being a Tiger! In the Northern American craze and hype of over-decorating your houe for the festive period, he gave it a spin. Holiday lightning around the house? Sure, why not he thought, but at least be original.

What did he come up with?

The Guitar Hero House.

And the thing is fully functional. I want to see a video of the whole street playing Rock Band!

Nerd of the Week without doubt.

Japanese Tarantino Ad With Talking Dog

franky — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 15:18:35 +0000

I don’t really understand anything in this ad but it’s got a talking dog (teddybear) but more even it features Quentin Tarantino. A crazy Tarantino in kimono and a talking dog.

It seems that the dog is some kind of iPod speaker or something like that, probably with TV reception in the land of the rising sun, but I would love to have a translation. Did Tarantino write the script or dialogue? Japan specialists, help me out!

Now That’s Shaking!

franky — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 15:15:00 +0000

Now that’s shaking. I must admit having said Whoa on occasion when watching this video but there’s some really great gimmicks. I would think twice before ordering an Old Fashioned though.

Enjoy.

San Francisco Street Life

Excellent short by Philip Bloom about the people living on the streets in San Francisco. Note that this video has been shot with a HD-SLR (Canon 5D MkII), but that’s probably the drooling nerd in me who likes that.

Metallica Pinball Machine (built with Linux)

franky — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 15:46:34 +0000

It is a generally known fact that you can not be a real metal band without having your own customized pinball machine. Right? Right.

So James Hetfield, lead singer of a well-known DRM supporting commercial band with metal tunes went ahead and ordered his own band pinball machine. Obviously sound in this machine is one of the main elements.

Creating a one-of-a-kind pinball experience is a much different beast, but we were able to catch up with Wade Krause and Tanio Klyce, two men who put together a special table for some big pinball fans: Metallica.

“[Singer] James Hetfield saw the Hellacopters game that [artist Dirty Donny] and I made a few years ago and he wanted us to build him a custom game,” Krause told Ars. That was the genesis of the project, but it takes real ingenuity to take an existing machine and modify it so that both the art and the play matches the feel of a band. Here’s how they Krause and Klyce pulled it off.

Ars Technica has the compelte story behind the making of the machine.
