New Marty Hench from Cory Doctorow!

One of my fave writers, Cory Doctorow @mostlysignssomeportents has just launched a new Kickstarter to presell his latest Marty Hench novel, 'Picks and Shovels'. Cory's homage to gumshoe noir, I would heartily suggest you get some Marty in your life. Loved 'Red Team Blues' and 'The Bezzle'. Pre-order now! https://t.co/xXsb5Snyhi https://t.co/M3RmUZorfB

If you dislodge your brain from Pacific Rim long enough to think, “I’ve seen every single tired action cliché ever in the last 30 minutes, this is clearly going to happen next,” that thing you thought of happens and then something even weirder, stupider, and more gloriously ludicrous happens. Remember when they fought with staffs earlier in the movie? It would be a shame to waste some Jackie Chan moves so Charlie Hunnam hits the “SWORD” button in the cockpit and suddenly the gargantuan robot is fighting the colossal sea alien WITH A GIANT SWORD. Does it makes any sense? No. Does something even more ridiculous happen with the giant robot sword later? YES.

What I’m saying is that even though I saw the movie 48 hours ago that I have worked myself into such a state of excitement just writing this that I want to go see it again this weekend. I don’t know if I can tell you what it is that makes this cheesy, silly, obscene, borderline stupid movie the joyful, bombastic thing that it is, but I can tell you that I haven’t been so instantly in love with a world and an aesthetic since The Matrix or the first time I saw Star Wars as a kid. I will not overextend myself with my usual quest to find something meaningful in these nerd extravaganzas, but instead end with what my friend Marcus said to me right after the movie ended: “If I’d seen this when I was eight years old I would have told my mom I couldn’t go to Sunday School anymore because this is what I believe in now.”

Tim Bierbaum has created dozens of great-looking mini-illustrations using a geometric drawing app for the iPhone called Maru Sankaku Shikaku. Sadly, it’s not available in the Canadian app store, so I can’t try it out for myself, but I love the results.

Fuck you. Pay me. Been there. Never got the t-shirt as it wasn’t what the client was after.
