Laser etching a Moleskin… sorta
nick writes - when we got the lazor at nycr, adam discovered that moleskin’s have pvc (not good) in the leather and lazering such a gizmo could be harmful to your salubriousness and might rounded off harm small puppies! (gasp!)
I wanted to Lazer the NYTimes “T” into my notebook so I had to take an alternate route. Very simply, I just cut out a “T” on the Epilog Lazor and then pressed it in a vice between a couple of pieces of wood for 20 mins or so. Looks pretty neat if I may say so myself. “Fire the lazzzzor!”

Trailer: ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ Finally Hits With No Time To Spare
the trailer for danny boyle’s festival-pleasing “slumdog millionaire” is finally online and with almost no time to spare. the film comes out november 12 and it’s been a bit of a rush job. the trailer isn’t spectacular, the poster is a poorly designed purpose-chafed that looks like a comp of something we made in 1995, but, the film is fantastic. mark our words. similar to sundry other critics who proverb it at telluride or the toronto film festival, we pretty much adored the fixedly-heart-rending and electrically vibrant love story that spans about 10-years-plus. there’s a acceptable why there’s so much universal girl for this film - it’s very prepossessing and pleasing in a way that never stoops to pander. it makes sole smile in the most freshness-affirming genuine ways. we can’t conjecture adequate permissible things about it.set in the slums of mumbai, india with no stars, the film is a share of a distressing sell to north american audiences, but just look inoperative on the web, the steam is unanimously adored and with any luck, fox searchlight could have a best sketch nomination on their hands - it’s that clever and that deserving. dev patel is eager, the children in the cover you just want to adopt and take home on the spot, they’re so amazing and the affaire de coeur interest in the film, freida pinto is righteous dash-dead gorgeous. irrfan khan from “the darjeeling limited” is also in the film as a cop, who doesn’t believe who the protagonist won the “who wants to be a millionaire” dispute and assumes he cheated (afterall, he’s only a slumboy).a.r. rahman’s score is brilliant too and there’s a musical point in time at the end that we won’t give away that will prepare you grinning from consideration-to-ear at the incessantly. oh yeah, and of course m.i.a’s “paper planes,” quite much the movie song of the year is featured in the movie too. one could remember, “hey, ‘pineapple express’ did that first!,” but knowing the british boyle, he was rockin kala practice before the apatow/dgg congregate was (no offense). if for whatever reason the trailer doesn’t do it for you (it doesn’t very capture the vim, spark and thrills the steam delivers), give this movie a shot anyhow. trust us. hopefully, it’s wonderful tone forces people to broadcast boyle’s “millions” another snap - his kid’s film from 2004 that was equally joyous and packed.the second song in the trailer is sigur ros’ “hoppipolla” from their album 2005 album taak. “slumdog millionaire” opens in restrictive turn loose on november 12 and then expands each week after that slowly rolling out into new markets. /film has a good run-down of its expansion plans.the playlist - the gone on spot where movies and music bump into rendezvous with.

‘Max Payne’ is better as a video game
Max Payne – A 20th Century Fox release. Directed by John Moore. Starring Mark Wahlberg, Mila Kunis, Beau Bridges, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Chris O’Donnell, Donal Logue, and Amaury Nolasco. Rated PG-13.
Here’s a message to director Moore: You can use all the visual tricks in the book, but a clichéd story is a clichéd story. Now, maybe fans of the Max Payne video games will like or even love this film, but most action fans will be disappointed. The biggest reason is the story, which is the overused revenge tale involving a cop.
New York detective Max Payne (Wahlberg) is a man wanting revenge. Someone killed his wife and child, and the case is still unsolved. He has transferred himself to the cold case department. Interested in nothing and no one, he only wants to find the killer.
Things are bad for Payne. With few friends on the force, he is a man alone. Even worse, when two murders occur, he seems to be the only connection.
A Russian beauty named Natasha (Olga Kurylenko) is killed – actually dismembered – right after Payne met with her. This doesn’t sit well with her gun-loving sister, Mona (Kunis), who gets involved.
Mona seeks the help of a former cop named Hensley (Bridges), who is employed by the pharmaceutical company where Payne’s wife Michelle worked.
At the same time, the cop assigned to Michelle’s murder is killed. The cop also happened to be Payne’s old friend.
It is at about this point that Mona and Payne join up to see what they can come up with. Payne soon finds evidence that links the pharmaceutical company to a drug that when taken causes visions of a winged demon. But there is still the missing piece – what links Michelle’s murder to the company and who actually killed her.
Based on the 2001 and 2003 video game, Max Payne is little more than an extension of them. Screenwriter Beau Thorne doesn’t move beyond the revenge/vigilante storyline.
Sure, there is plenty of grit on display, thanks to director Moore and his production designer Daniel T. Dorrance, but it never adds up to anything remotely suspenseful. Why? Because there is never a feeling that Payne is in danger. Yes, there is a hail of bullets shot in Payne’s direction every five minutes, but he never truly gets hurt or all that bloodied.
The stylish action sequences, high-lighted by the “bullet-time” effects, are impressive in the early going, even if they remind the viewer of The Matrix, but, after a while, it becomes routine.
Compared to Shooter,Wahlberg’s last full-out action film, Max Payne is little more than a special effects time-waster. None of Shooter’s suspense, or the impact of live action sequences, is on display here. The film will also remind some of Constantine (2005), a film based on a comic book, but one that had a far better story. There is also the, by now, used and reused atmosphere of the cold damp surroundings of a city with constant snow falling lightly that is supposed to signal just how “dark” everything is.
Wahlberg is OK, but with one tone to play, he can’t bring anything to the character. His handling of the action is strong, as can be expected. The real miscasting here is Kunis. She’s no gun-wielding action star and is just too young for the role. Wasted is Chris “Ludacris” Bridges as an Internal Affairs officer, while Beau Bridges and O’Donnell do their best in flatly written roles.
Max Payne will make some quick cash on its way to the DVD racks, where fans can pick up the video games and film at the same time. The thinking is they’ll still like the games better.
