Phillyist Playlist: Bob Dylan at the Liacouras Center
What to Do with Your Transpass
Constitution Center Invites Artists to Revisit WPA
Yo, Philly in the News
Now What?
A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you.
- Do Philly frat boys have the worst taste in beer ever? Well, this one does.
- Remember that interesting little Stickman guy we posted a photo of in a recent Photoist column? Here's some more info on him.
- As you are probably already aware, the latest adjustments to the iPod and iPhone product lines were announced yesterday. Here's reflections about it all from Nerd World and Game|Life. The iPod Touch is pretty sweet, but we're particularly excited and relieved that a 160GB iPod now exists. That means we'll have somewhere to go when we inevitably run out of space on the 80GB model.
- Want an original Pong arcade machine, made by Atari when they were still called Syzygy? You do? Well, check out this auction on eBay! (Via)
- It's important to indoctrinate your children into the great things in life as early as possible. That's why we heartily endorse this Super Mario Bros. mobile. (Via)
- Ba ha ha ha! Here's the secret "Hot Coffee" video hidden inside the hot new game Lair. Don't worry, it's not what you think. (Via)
- It's become common practice for the modern concert-goer to hold up his/her cell phone during the show and use its light to stand in for that of the lighters of old. Well, now there's a better way. If your cell phone is internet enabled, you can just point it at RockLighter.com, then hold it up. Brilliant! (Via)
- We love Hellboy. Hellboy is awesome. These being undeniable true facts, we cannot help but be enamored of this knitted Hellboy, from the same talent who brought us those knitted zombies. Check out all the knitted minions here. (Via)
- We've gone from being completely uninterested in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption to being totally obsessed with getting our hands on a copy. It's reviews like this that are the main culprit.
- The first Iron Man teaser trailer will be showing up before The Hills on MTV on September 10th. However, since there are few agonies worse than having to see any part of The Hills, we're going to wait until the thing shows up at Apple.com's trailers website on September 11th.
- After Rock Band is released, there will of course be an online store where you can download more tracks for the game. Apparently the store will include 18 Grateful Dead songs (which is way overkill in our opinion), but more importantly, the entire albums Who's Next and Nevermind will also be available, as well as some more Metallica tunes.
- Oh no! Bitter infighting amongst the Disney and Pixar marketing departments! Actually... that's pretty funny. Heh.
- It's rumored that Catwoman could make an appearance in Batman Begins 3 (or however you want to refer to the Batman movie that will inevitably follow The Dark Knight). As long as they actually do the character right this time, this could be good news!
- Cinematical's got a new pic from Bryan Singer's upcoming movie Valkyrie. It's all seven of the main cast members in costume and in character as the seven generals involved in the plot to kill Hitler.
- An upcoming film adaptation of Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged, which will star Angelina Jolie, now has a director: Vadim Perelman. Perelman will also be rewriting the original draft of the screenplay by Randall Wallace.
- Here's a list we're sure you'll be interested in: The 25 Best Movie Sex Scenes of All Time. It's on Moviefone, so sadly you don't have to worry about anything that's NSFW. (Via)
- My Arcade Planet offers us an analysis of the fanboy - specifically, the video game sort. (Via)
