Edgar Wright versus Jonah Hill & Michael Cera

Edgar Wright (director of Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead, and Spaced) is about to release Scott Pilgrim Versus The World starring Michael Cera, but it turns out this isn’t the first time Edgar Wright and Michael Cera have “worked together”. See the youtube embed for awkward, semi-violent, hilarity.

What does it mean to be superbad?

I didn’t do it.

Swear to the gods. (And isn’t it about time SkyCity St Lukes cut their losses and changed wall covering to something that isn’t so easy to horribly deface?)

Remu-wera

remu-wera

Why not correct the naming of our suburbs, where there are clear examples of more correct spellings? I think Remu-wera means something like ‘tail of the whale’ and is an older name for Mt Hobson.

New Zealand, Supine

supine-new-zealand

I can’t help thinking that it would be better for all of New Zealand if this was the ordinary way to display our fine country on national maps.

The horizontal view seems to create less of an ‘us’ and ‘them’ feeling than I get from the ordinary North/South map, this side-by-side orientation evokes something more familial, inspiring a sense of brotherhood and mateship.

Anyway, isn’t it sort of an old-fashioned world-view to always put North at the top? After all, there isn’t really any ‘top’ on a sphere, let’s just do our own thing.
