From bOINGbOING:

007 Title Sequences. I see this as a companion piece to the Alfred Hitchcock cameos I ran here a while back. (bOINGbOING article)

Chris Ware New Yorker covers and comic strip. (bOINGbOING article)

Maybe I could just change my LJ handle to something that automatically links to bOINGbOING. Save some time.

That reminds me, there's a new 1-hour special on Comedy Central featuring "The Amazing Johnathan," my favorite scary magician comic. It's pretty harsh and amusing. His stage persona of a dangerous and abusive magician, is quite effective. Highly recommended.

YouTube has 7 clips with him in it (even more if you spell his name "Jonathon" or "Jonathan"). Here's the longest one:

Weren't there a couple of movies this year about dangerous and abusive magicians?

I know there were two movies about magicians. Beyond that, I've been somewhat inattentive. I expect I miss some good movies that way.
