Voluminous Volumes, Volume Three
 by Fëanor

  • The folks at the Star Wars site love to interview famous people who like their movies. Their latest such interview is with the bassist for Death Cab for Cutie, and it's surprisingly long and enjoyable. It also reveals the origin of the name of the band, which I can't remember having heard before; turns out it comes from the name of a song by the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band, a faux (I assume) British rock comedy group that appears in the Beatles movie Magical Mystery Tour.


  • Another fun movie rumor: Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie might star together in a re-adaptation of Wuthering Heights. There's only one thing I can say about this news, and I think you know what it is already: that's hot.


  • If you have not yet seen it, you need to go over here and watch the trailer for Brokeback to the Future. It's hilariously excellent. (Via Backwards City, Sarcasmo's Corner, and probably somewhere else, too)


  • Do you love cutesy Japanese-style art and your internal organs, and would like to know more about both? Then have I got the website for you! It's IHeartGuts.com, and it's full of products that are plastered with fun representations of your hard-working friends, the lungs, heart, and stomach (and their buddies)! Wander the site a bit and you'll even learn some Japanese. (Via Drawn!)


  • Speaking of products with cute representations of things on them that I found via Drawn!, check out these totally adorable dog pillows from Pillow Pillow Pillow.


  • As an early Valentine's Day gift, I bring you a list of lovely Valentines you can use yourself when the day comes. (Via boutell)
