Donald Trump’s chilling scene in Stephen King’s IT (1986)
it’s the only way to live
but a hammer with which to shape it.”

Artsy Fart of the Day: The Pirate Cinema
Artists Nicolas Maigret and Brendan Howell have teamed up to create The Pirate Cinema, a site-specific video installation which constantly downloads the most-viewed torrents at the time and projects them on to a screen. Since torrents aren’t downloaded sequentially, the films are often streamed with their video or audio out of order and displayed across multiple screens in the room, resulting in an audio/visual collage representative of our illegal desires for media consumption in real-time.

Favourite Classic Films (in no particular order)
Arsenic and Old Lace (1944), dir. Frank CapraLook, I probably should have told you this before but you see, well, insanity runs in my family…it practically gallops.
CONAN O’BRIEN: Amy Poehler first popped for us [on Late Night] because someone had the idea for a character who’s a huge, over-the-top Conan fan who has a mouth retainer. The piece would always go the same way: She would be over–the-top, and then I’d finally say, “I’m too old for you,” and suddenly, her whole demeanor would change, just like a cloud would pass over her face, and then she would become demonically angry and rage at me [laughs.]. It’s a funny idea, but it’s all in the performance. And Amy would absolutely destroy it every time. She was completely unknown—she didn’t have the benefit of the crowd saying, “Hey, look, it’s Amy Poehler.” But she hit it out of the park every time.
