2. Sam Worthington says he "feels like an idiot" for not protesting obvious plot holes in Terminator Salvation, suggests that Avatar only looks lousy because we haven't paid IMAX admission prices. Via.

3. I'd have hoped that the stock market's collapse would have eliminated this sort of foolishness, but Gavin Turk's sculpture "Brillo 5" is expected to sell at auction for $30,000. It's a bronze sculpture that looks like a plain cardboard box. Via.

Lego Gundam (link roundup)



Lego Gundam by Marco-Pochi. Via.

And a few more links:

1. Just about completely taking the "school" out of high school basketball:
One of the requirements of playing for Findlay College Prep is a willingness to repeatedly explain an apparent conundrum: How can the Pilots be one of the best high school teams in the nation when Findlay Prep isn't a high school? In the Pilots' unconventional program, the players live together in a suburban Las Vegas house, travel as much as some college teams, dine occasionally on the Vegas strip and... oh, yes, take classes at a nearby private school, Henderson (Nev.) International School. ¶ "It can get confusing for people," says senior Carlos Lopez, the Pilots' 6'11" center from Lajas, Puerto Rico, and a UNLV recruit. "I tell them Findlay Prep is a team, not a school. Then it's like, 'You don't go to school?' Yes, we go to school just like anybody else, but our team is not the same as our school. Like I said, confusing."
Sports Illustrated investigates.

2. The threat against the White House you may have missed last week - - bees.

3. There's a band called "Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin" and here's a concert poster for it.

4. Watch the sequel to Mike Tyson's Punch-Out you never knew about - - "Mike Tyson's Intergalactic Power Punch."

Clip from Pixar's Up



In this clip from Pixar's Up, Russell demonstrates his less than expert first aid skills. Animator Austin Madison says of the clip, "I had to take four weeks of first aid training to animate the shots of him demonstrating his command of bandaids."

Also at Austin's site, check out this vintage photo of the Band of Gundams.
