I thought I would use today's space to blatantly promote a movie I saw recently. Some of you may have seen it, but I think a lot have not: Scott Pilgrim vs the World. I wouldn't call it an amazing movie, but it is a very entertaining watch. The soundtrack has a certain charm to it as well. If you are looking for a unique experience, you should check it out.
Here is a song that is in the movie that also serves as a trailer of sorts:

Scott Pilgrim vs the World
Unfortunately, the creators of this video have decided that nobody gets to see their product. You see, youtube videos aren't as shareable as you think, and I've learned this only from 4 days of working with embedding them. Wordpress simply doesn't let you play most copyrighted music at all. This Scott Pilgrim video on youtube cannot be shared with the "share" button, does not appear in the blogger linked account favorites, and will not show up on any blogger searches!
Now, fact-free internet rant: It makes me sad to know this could be the progression of the internet. This is the people's frontier. This is where the first world masses can wallow in their consumerist filth without being disturbed. I would like it if the government/corporations stopped trying to meddle with it, regardless of what "laws" tell us to do. The world is changing, but those who have power often wish to hold it. The corporate/bureaucratic/whatever you want to call it takeover of the internet feels like this to me.
