Tales of True Adventure for Rugged Men Not Unlike Yourself
Some dude bought Hammer Films a few years ago and is restoring the catalog in 4K – from the original negatives! I found the YouTube channel and watched a few trailers; these things are absolutely stunning.
Anyway, here’s an eight-minute video explaining the process. I understood some of it.
Interesting parallels between now and 2000 or so.
Are you guys jealous?
If I worked here, production would drop by about a third in the first month.
The only catch? The Xiaomi SU7 Max isn’t available in the US, and won’t be for a while. Sigh …
So much great music gets by me these days, but not anymore with my new subscription to SPIN! Please to enjoy the haunted stylings of Lera Lynn.
I shared this with Renfield a couple of weeks ago, but I’m posting it for you bastards too, as I’ve become addicted to this dry-witted Canadian’s YouTube channel. In this video, he somehow restores a double cutaway ’59 Les Paul Junior from a block of Swiss cheese. He describes everything he’s doing in great detail, so I recommend jumping ahead when things get slow.
Yes, you do!
I think I’ve mentioned before that my dad drove one of these briefly. I would push both of my grandmothers down the stairs for one now.
Anyway, enjoy or don’t.
And I’m super-excited to see his take on Frankenstein, apparently something he’s wanted to do for years. Even if it sucks, it’ll be gorgeous. Available on Netflix November 7, you monstrous bastards!
Oh, and if you haven’t checked out his Cabinet of Curiosities from a few years ago (also on Netflix), you definitely should.
