Justin’s prices are decent. His posters are neat. We’re tempted to buy a print for our cluttered apartment.

Sputnik 1 Re-imagined in a Vintage Style Poster

Posted by mistergroonk in Art, Artist, Space on August 20, 2010

Sputnik 1

Justin Van Genderen has created a beautiful series of Soviet styled vintage space posters. Remember those times when there were social revolutions, the USA was fighting a war in a country across the world and the USA was digging in its heels in the great space race battle against the Soviet Union?

The Sunday Punch: Orson Welles, Basil Rathbone, Marlene Dietrich in the Batman that Never Was

Posted by mistergroonk in Just Freaking Neat, Movies on August 8, 2010

Apparently, Welles himself was going to take on the dual role of Bruce Wayne and Batman (more on this little tidbit later). As for the remainder of the cast: Basil Rathbone was apparently set to play the Joker, Marlene Dietrich was to play Catwoman, George Raft was looking at Two-Face and… quite possibly the best casting decision ever, James Cagney as the Riddler. What apparently killed any possibility of Orson Welles’ Batman from being made was the fact that he wanted to play the lead, while the studio was in favor of Gregory Peck. Legend has it that when Welles found out about this, he immediately halted production and never considered the property again.

Overload: A Study in LOST, “Keep the Darkness Where it Belongs”

Posted by mistergroonk in Art, Comics, Television, Video on May 21, 2010

What began as a small kinetic typography post has grown into a reservoir of LOST on the Internet. here it is. An overload of all things LOST we’ve come across in recent months. Will these things fade into irrelevancy after the show is done?

Only time, and how the finale plays out this Sunday, will tell.

LOST overload after the jump.
