The Nightwatch

Surveillance cameras observe a fox exploring the Tudor and Georgian rooms of the National Portrait Gallery at night.

!!!!

I like to think this is a real-life Nelson.

This raises far more questions than it could ever possibly answer. I mean, I know, but still. Still.

I watched the entire video that Jon linked because foxes.

It felt like I was watching someone badly play a point-and-click adventure game.

Today when I was biking home from the post office I couldn’t get the words Corgi Laforge out of my head. This is what happened. Corgi Laforge is an 8x10 print on ivory cardstock. Click here, or click the photo to order.

Enjoy!

Now I’m just mad I didn’t think of it myself.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the combination best of times and worst of times.

Brilliant. So brilliant.

This song has been stuck in my head. Not even the actual song. I’m literally talking about this right here. 

Now it’s in my head too. Not that I’m complaining, mind you.

Warner Bros. Officially Greenlights White ‘Akira’ As More White ‘Akira’ Films Propagate [Video]

By Andy Khouri

Warner Bros. has officially “greenlit” production of AKIRA, the studio’s long-in-development live-action adaptation of the classic manga and anime created by Katsuhiro Otomo. The studio announced in July that it had hired Unknown and House of Wax director Jaume Collet-Serra to replace Albert Hughes, who left the project amid fan outcry (led by the beloved Japanese-American actor George Takei) over alleged plans to cast the film with Caucasian actors, but production was delayed as Collet-Serra and producers worked to reduce the budget, which Variety reports was initially estimated at $100 million. TRON: Legacy actor Garrett Hedlund is apparently in the running for one of the two lead roles.

Amusingly, the news comes in the same week that Fox released the first trailer for Chronicle, which from the looks of it is basically found footage of AKIRA with white people, and in the same week that popular electronic music outfit M83 released its music video for “Midnight Son,” which is basically AKIRA with white people in slow motion.

You can watch both at ComicsAlliance.

My pal Andy is basically the ComicsAlliance RaceWatch Officer, which I’m sure would be frustrating if it didn’t afford him repeated opportunities to be both right and hilarious.

One of three leads in Chronicle is black, FYI.
