VMA's News and Notes 8.26.13

Wait...  I'm not the only one that can see this, right?

Sooo... the VMA's were last night. Apparently they still give out awards for music videos. Where exactly do people see these videos? And I'm not taking a snarky (albeit easy) shot at MTV. Seriously, where do people go to watch music videos?

And can someone please tell me what in the name of all that is (un)holy happened to Hannah Montana? Not to sound like a 90 year-old but, between Miley grinding on Alan Thicke's kid and Kanye being Kanye and all of the other debauched insanity that was going on last night, I'm not sure how the Earth didn't open up and swallow the Barclays Center.

Miley's performance was an equal-parts mix of horrifying and horrifying and I can't in good conscience recommend that you go find it and watch it. (But do it anyway.) I believe if you took someone from the first century and dropped them in the Barclay's Center last night, they would go back and write the book of Revelation word for word. Somebody start searching for pictures of John the Apostle in last night's crowd.

The Week That Was

-  A quick recap of everything that happened here last week in case you missed it. Judging by the numbers, the Parnormous Intro got lost in the shuffle for a lot of people Saturday morning. If you're in that boat, don't fret because here it is again... (I have no shame.)



-  Our new Office Game got people stirred up pretty well on Friday and gave us a traffic spike.

-  And I also threw out some thoughts on our new Batman-elect, Ben Affleck.

WSF Updates

I spent most of Saturday working on the Paranormous edit and I am happy to announce that the day was well spent. I believe we may be able to put a cap on it this week if I get a couple good nights of work in and if Todd gets the chance to come up and smooth out the rough edges.

The assembly cut is basically all stitched together. Now we need to cut any fat, add some music and graphics and a few effects, and then we might be able to get this thing in the mail. Don't close the mailbox just yet, Paducah!

We'll see you back here for Indie Wednesday and any other goofiness we can come up with.
