'The Hobbit' VFX Breakdowns






There are some really nice VFX breakdown clips of The Hobbit over on the LA Times website. I enjoyed The Hobbit! I saw it twice - once in London and once in Houston, TX. I thought the story and pacing of the film was a bit lackluster but the character performances were amazing!






Conan interviews Jack White




[Inspiration of the day] A great interview with Jack White. He talks about his path into the music business as well as his creative inspirations and motivations. And Conan rocks as well and actually has some serious moments in the interview!  Thanks Tiff for the heads up!
