A film buff tells a friend that he’s finally broken “the code” – the mystery behind the character & story threads that bleed from one Quentin Tarantino movie or screenplay into the next. His friend is less than impressed. Starring Seu Jorge (The Life Aquatic) and Selton Mello (Tarja Preta). A short film by Brazilian directing duo 300ml. Note: The video is spoken in Portuguese with english subtitles.

Do you know John Hodgman? If i told you he was a technician on the LHC you might not question me. But, if i was to show you a picture of Mr. Hodgman….
I wonder if anyone notices that i use an Ibook?
Yes it’s the PC guy on those Mac TV ads. The guy that doesnt want you to say Vi@#*! I’ve been catching Mr. Hodgmans guest blogging on Boing Boing and was hooked! HIS UNNECESSARY but sometime reassuring USE OF CAPS! His “That is all” at the end of every post! (Personal favorite!)
His blog Good Evening or areasofmyexpertise.com is a mish mash of Mr. Hodgman. Links, Pics, Rants… all the stuff you would expect from a Minor TV celebrity’s blog.
In closing, anyone that end’s with the line That is all, really has A LOT to say, but is far too advanced to give it all up in one shot!
That is all
