A little over 10 years ago, 41 international directors were asked to create a short film using an original Cinematographe created by the Lumière Borthers in 1895, as part of the Lumière et compagnie project. Part of this group was the man we know and love, David Lynch, who by many accounts created the most inspiring short of all included. There were 3 rules involved with the making of the short, 1) The film must be under 52 seconds (possibly due to a technical limitation), 2) no synched sound was permitted, and 3) the directors were allowed no more than 3 takes. David Lynch’s short was titled, “Premonitions Following an Evil Deed” and featured 52 seconds of beautifully framed and filmed images, which even today feels fresh and exciting. I agree with the original poster, imagine what could have been created by Lynch if given more time and more stock in this format?

I need help,
I have an app that contains an embedded browser.
Up until recently, I could navigate to Google Video and watch videos within the app.
Now when I attempt to load a video page, the app shuts down, without warning – just ***gone*** – every time.
This doesn't happen with YouTube.com or Yahoo Video, just Google Video.
Something about their page changed recently to cause this. Any ideas?
Thanks.

This is getting a bit a lot more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool functions like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see connected albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one particular of individuals will center on that item, and an additional set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” can be great fun, letting you discover other people with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist developed based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know it is possible to prevent the public from seeing your individual listening habits in case you so decide on.
