Wow. That was quick! A trailer for Quarantine can be found on Apple’s trailer site! It’s a remake of [Rec], a movie from Spain I really enjoyed. It features Jennifer Carpenter (Dexter’s sister).

No poster as of yet, but here the link to the trailer and IMDb info:

Back to work

I apologize for not being able to post at least one item each day… but I just started a new job which will probably consume me whole!

(I hope to copy the blog to a separate domain to tryout some plugins like iPhone formatting etc… hopefully this weekend!)

Btw – here a bit more information on the company I now work for: Image Movers Digital





A little bit of housekeeping…

Just in case you are accessing the blog right now, don’t panic if the layout/design changes – I’m in the process of revising the look a bit…

 





À l’intérieur aka “Inside” (France 2007)

19 04 2008

Picture 1.jpg

Synopsis (possible spoiler): Still grieving over her recently deceased boyfriend, a pregnant woman becomes haunted by a mysterious woman.

First up – this movie is rated “R” for a reason. Forget any of the Hostel or Saw movies. To its credit, when you take away all the gore and fake blood, the movie is haunting and scary. The soundtrack works, the lighting is interesting. Disturbing, that’s for sure.

RT 100% (only 6 reviews) – IMDb 7.2/10 (over 1100 reviews)

Princess (Denmark 2006)

17 04 2008

Synopsis (possible spoiler): Due to his sister’s death, the 32 year old August returns and consequently abandons his profession as a missionary priest. His beloved sister Christina, who went from greatness to decay as the famous porn-star The Princess, is dead after years of drug abuse. She leaves behind her 5-year old daughter Mia, whom August feels obliged to take care of. Weighed down by grief and guilt he decides to revenge the dead of Christina – and takes Mia on a mission to destroy all existing pornographic material featuring The Princess. The mission escalates into a brutal and violent rout, where August is desperately trying to protect the only precious thing in his life, Mia, why he is forced to make a fatal decision. Written by Martin Stoltenborg Christensen

I don’t think this movie could’ve been made as a live action film without being NC17 or X. Interesting movie. (Nothing we haven’t seen before – however never in this context (Porn) and never as an innocent cartoon.). Please note: This is NOT Disney!

Setting up LaunchBar search template for multiple sites

17 04 2008

Let’s say you want to search for something simultaneously on multiple web sites. You could use Saft (and chase after the latest version every time Apple release an update), or, if you are a LaunchBar user (which you should be!) setup a AppleScript like so:

on handle_string(s)

tell application “Safari”

activate

 

tell application “System Events”

tell process “Safari”

keystroke “n” using command down

end tell

end tell

delay 1

set the URL of document 1 to “http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=” & s

 

tell application “System Events”

tell process “Safari”

keystroke “t” using command down

end tell

end tell

set the URL of document 1 to “http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=” & s

 

end tell

 

end handle_string

 

After LaunchBar indexed the script you can trigger it as a search template. The script will open a new Safari

window with two tabs, showing the results from Google and Yahoo

We’re proud to present a new service – baywords.com. Because of the need of freedom of speech and secure hosting facility of the words being said we could not agree to how people behave towards bloggers.

Many blogs are being shut down for uncomfortable thoughts and ideas. We will not do that. Our goal is to protect freedom of speech and your thoughts. As long as you don’t break any Swedish laws in your blog, we will defend it.

We will update the blogging system all the time to add new features and themes. If you need to contact us, you can do so here.

We decided that although the system is quite minimalistic right now, the most important thing was to get it up and running. So stay tuned for updates and please blog your heart out. Your ideas and your thoughts are the most important ones.

(Upcoming stuff: We will add support for your own domain hopefully. Captcha system will be installed. Stats will be better. Ads will be added, sorry about that but we’ll keep them as usual to a minimum.)
