  Broadway New Year's Day

  Animation (Stop Motion), Docs & Non-Fiction (Travel)
  [ 3:15 - from eGuiders ]

  An eGuiders web video premiere: This one-of-a-kind short could be 'documentary stop-motion' at its best. On New Years Day 1997, Montreal filmmaker Ezra Soiferman decided on a whim to walk the entire seven-mile length of New York's famed Broadway and film it. Music is by the band Ashkhabad from Turkmenistan on Peter Gabriel's Real World Records. Making the video even more impressive is the fact that all the images are as the filmmaker shot them 'in-camera' (no editing afterwards) and jive incredibly well to the unlikely tune. Take a very special trip down Broadway in this exclusive eGuiders.com online premiere. view

This song is about focusing on the mundane things you can actually stick to. view

  A Very Naked Christmas

  
  Comedy (Broad), Viral (Pick-me-ups)
  [ 4:15 - from Funny or Die ]

  Apparently there is no need for clothes in the afterlife, but the "ghost" coke is off the hook. The lesson here is:  If your soul is in grave danger, and you happen to be visited by your naked, dead, seemingly homosexual former business partner, make sure you let him know that it's 'not like that'... and don't let him sit on your bed. view
