So You Think You Can Dance: Mad World

I'm so behind on the episodes since I'm traveling. Since I'm in Kentucky, we've had a bit more down time thanks to the heat and the fact that this is more of a rest stop than a sightseeing stop. Laundry has been done and now I'm caught up on my blogs and hulu watching, ha.

The Top 6 (again) performed and overall, I thought it was a mediocre episode with all the routines being solid, but not as memorable as previous weeks. Below is my favorite routine from the episode. There's a better quality video HERE.



Set to one of my favorite songs, Mad World by Gary Jules, it was a great commentary on the discrepency between economic classes. I thought it was Billy's week between this, the Bollywood routine, and his solo, but obviously America disagreed. He just never had America on his side this season as compared to other dancers like Kent and Lauren. Maybe America was tired of hearing about his talents since he was on last season, I don't know.

(GUEST POST) Short Film: Welcome Home Kurt

A bunch of my friends and I got together a few weeks ago and did the San Diego 48 Hour Film Challenge. For those of you who do not know what that is, it's basically a competition where you have 48 hours to write, shoot, and edit a film. You're given a specific genre and have to make a film according to that genre including a character, a line of dialogue, and a prop they give you. We got period piece for our genre, which was AWESOME because I really wanted to a 1970's thing for our project.

So far, we've placed top 15 in San Diego and we'll know later this week if we won anything!! Yay!

Please watch our film and comment on it, I would love to hear your thoughts about it.

(Guest Post) This Scrooge McDuck Comic Seems Familiar...

This seems familiar to me. Then again, Scrooge McDuck was (is?) a very rich duck, and could most definately afford any sort of dream-stealing technology available in Duckworld.
