Galactic Empire State of Mind
Genius!
Lyrics
[DARTH VADER/JAY-Z]
Yeah
No longer Anakin
Formerly a Skywalker
Son's next rebel hero
But I'll be Sith forever
I'm the newest Dark lord And since my training years
I can choke from anywhere
Yeah my force is everywhere Used to run with Obi Wan We were both best buds foreva
But after three movies Now I've got a blood vendetta Grew up on Tatooine
No vegetation Catch me rolling through the cosmos in a moon-like station to Leia's home nation Death Star wrecks it Now princess knows, Vader ain't one to mess with
Flying through the trenches
Blasting rebel noobies
What happened to the fat one
Think he died of heart disease All that's left is this guy
Chasing him in my TIE I won't deny That his force is pretty damn high
Damn i just got wiped out
Falcon shot the back of me
Spinning into outerspace
But I'll be back definitely
[PRINCESS LEIA/ALICIA KEYS]
In Star Wars Empire is out to find Leia Death star plans in R2 Shoot the exhaust port Kenobi may now be see-through But the force is within Luke
Let's hear it for new hope, new hope, new hope
[Vader: You're welcome Obi Wan... I made you a ghost!]
[DARTH VADER/JAY-Z]
Catch me rockin boots and a cape like superman
Hell, I made wearing black more famous than that Jay-Z can
You should know I'd find you, hiding out at Echo
Now I got a Blizzard Force eliminate you quick yo
Welcome to the planet Hoth AT-ATs hit the spot Walking tanks are too legit
But they fall down a lot Check the front, check the back, cant find the Falcon yet
We need them all alive, so no disintegrations Boba Fett 8 million asteroids, where'd your little ship go?
Get me to Cloud City, I got Lando on my payroll
Me I gotta double check if carbonite's ok If freezin's safe for Han
Doing Luke the same way
New deal Lando
Ain't no pardon
Kid blew up my boys
Rest in peace Moff Tarkin
Turns out we are family
Embrace your dark fate
Dad and son together, yo No way the emperor's safe, cause...
[PRINCESS LEIA/ALICIA KEYS] In Star Wars
Now Han Solo's a coffee table
There's nothing Luke can do [Vader: Should've joined me, bro!]
He's on Dagobah
With some dyslexic Jedi dude
Right hand still got sliced through Looks like they struck back, struck back, struck back
[DARTH VADER/JAY-Z]
Lightsabers grinding
Palpatine's smiling
Cause he knew it would come to this The light side is blind with casualties
Who do evil casually, then gradually become worse
Don't fight your destiny
Wasn't a great dad, true
Absent all the while
No happy times behind us, and plus, now I'm killin' you
Keep fencing mister, 'cause now I sense a sister
You don't go bad, maybe I'll enlist her
Now Emperor wants you, only wants me rubbed out You controlled your anger, stayed light side devout Watch out kid, he's got lightning bolts to immolate Uh-uh, hell no, daddy powers activate
End this prune with a badass murder suicide
Bald headed, mask off, heart melted kid you were right Burn all my gear so those Ewoks can't wear it again
Do it, I'll be watching you, a ghost, name of Anakin
[PRINCESS LEIA/ALICIA KEYS] In Star Wars
Destroy new Death Star's generator
Ewoks to the rescue
Blast through to the core
This Regime's gonna be brand new
Galactic Empire's through
The Jedi have returned, returned, returned

Steve McQueen (March 24, 1930 – November 7, 1980)
Were the legend alive Steve McQueen would have celebrated his 80th birthday today.
He's always been a role model to me. Style, attitude, his need for speed and "No, cut those four lines of dialog. I'll say all that with a face expression" approach to acting is a big inspiration.
Steve McQueen was nicknamed "The King of Cool." His "anti-hero" persona made him one of the top box-office draws of the 1960s and 1970s. Addicted to all things fast he was an avid racer of both motorcycles and cars. He is recognized for performing many of his own stunts, especially the majority of the stunt driving during the high-speed chase scene in Bullitt.
McQueen received an Academy Award nomination for his role in The Sand Pebbles. His other popular films include The Magnificent Seven, The Great Escape, The Thomas Crown Affair, Bullitt, The Getaway and Papillon.
McQueen was offered the lead role in Breakfast at Tiffany's but was unable to accept due to his Wanted: Dead or Alive contract (the role went to George Peppard). He also turned down Ocean's Eleven, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (his attorneys and agents couldn't agree with Paul Newman's attorneys and agents on who got top billing), The Driver, Apocalypse Now, California Split, Dirty Harry and The French Connection. (McQueen didn't want to do another cop film.)

Oh God Please No!
OMFG I'm not looking forward to a future like this. But I'm sure some of this is coming to an eye near you soon. Given the new rave for all things 3D and everybody's rave for the oh mighty dollar this I'm sure is not far off.
This scary future is predicted in Keiichi Matsuda's short film, produced in his final year in Masters in Architecture ... read more over at Adland.tv

The New Yeasayer's "One" Video is More Then a Little Inspired by Tony Scott's "The Hunger"
"The Hunger" is an almost forgotten masterpiece directed by Tony Scott and features David Bowie and Susan Sarandon. Watch the opening credits and you see just how much the Yeasayer video is "borrowing".
The Blasters "Dark Night"
You will of course recognize the The Blasters "Dark Night" song from the Robert Rodriguez/Quentin Tarantino film "From Dusk Till Dawn". But classic TV kick-ass show Miami Vice was first way back in 1985. It was featured in an episode of season two where Crockett and Tubbs are trying to find a connection between of ritual killings and drug dealers.

OK Go "This Too Shall Pass" (State farm sponsored video)
Another video. This one is slightly sponsored by State farm and I for one see no problem with that. Promo budgets are in the toilet so any legal way of getting more green is all good by this guy (meaning me).

Gorillaz "Stylo" - New Video
Looking forward to hearing what the new Gorillaz album will sound like. This is a nice tune and the video features a cameo by Bruce Willis no less. They've disabled the YouTube so a QuickTime will have to do for now. Produced by Passion Pictures, co-directed by Jamie Hewlett and Pete Candeland.
