New Star Trek Trailer
The new Star Trek trailer’s up – I think of this Summer’s films this is probably looking hottest. The Wolverine trailer is looking a little disappointing, so it’s between this and Terminator: Salvation for me.
Dr. Herbert Manhattan
What if Woody Allen had directed Watchmen?
Allen sets his romantic comedy on the Upper West Side, where wealthy dermatologist Dr. Herbert Manhattan (Allen) suffers a freak accident with his dermabrasion machine. How will his blue skin and omnipotence affect his relationship with beautiful but scatterbrained silk importer Laurie Juspeczyk (Scarlett Johansson)?
Slate have done quite a few Watchmen articles over the past few days, this is definitely my favourite though – reimagining Watchmen as directed by Woody Allen, Judd Apatow, Quentin Tarantino, Tyler Perry, Sofia Coppola and Pedro Almodóvar.

Khoda
What if you watch a film and whenever you pause it, you face a painting? This idea inspired Reza Dolatabadi to make Khoda. Over 6000 paintings were painstakingly produced during two years to create a five minutes film that would meet high personal standards.

Andrew Hicks has been creating some pretty amazing mirrors including this one that bounces the light in such a way that the returned image isn’t actually a mirror image, thus rendering text readable:
His alternative wing mirror seems pretty awesome too.
