So who else is excited about the new version of iLife coming out?

I think my excitement stems off of the recent purchase of my Flip camera, and trying to make something tangible out of random family clips. So go get one already. From the demos, it seems like iMovie is going to be able to do just that. Which is good, cause it’s hard making a watchable video out of family clips. And thankfully we’re afforded that luxury as oppossed to the olden days when pops would just leave the camera on the tripod for Christmas. You had to botch through the slew of footage for a few key moments.

Thank you Apple. I’m excited.

If anyone wants to go in on a family pack for it, let me know. It’s good for five, and will reduce our cost immensely.

So the Steve has a new release out. I’m rather fond of our selection and overall product. You can check it out here, forskinnysteve.

Other than that i don’t have much excitement on this end. Just back to the ol’ grindstone, which for some reason is a little bit harder than i would imagaine. I’m ready and excited about work, it’s just getting back into the mindset of it all.

I watched Rushmore last night in an attempt to find out why everyone hails that as Anderson’s best, and i still stick by my claim that Tenenbaum’s is his best. Rushmore is good, but it comes off like he’s still trying to find his style, and with a story like that, leans towards the more awkward. I mean by the end of Tenenbaum’s, you’re rooting for a brother and sister to find love, sincerely. Yet in Rushmore, it feels a bit more forced. Which goes to show his storytelling and directing style was finally mastered.

But i still think Bottle Rocket to be one of his best, as that story was so good, and his finding of his style was accepted because of the story.

That’s just me i suppose.

This new year is to bring good things, and i’m ready.

And a year closer to the end of the Mayan Calendar. Let’s do it!

Onward!
