Cloud Collision

Cloud Collision

We won’t let the irritating audio take away from Mitchell F. Chan’s Something Something National Conversation (In 2 Characters or Less), which features one of the most satisfying elements we’ve seen in an art installation – two puffy white clouds colliding endlessly in mid-air.

Conan Plays Battlefield 1

Conan Plays Battlefield 1

(Gore) “[It’s] the most beautiful thing you have ever seen. And you have a son.” Conan O’Brien and pal Terry Crews were alternately depressed and awed by the single player campaign of WW 1 fps Battlefield 1. RIP Tree.

The Fisherman

The Fisherman

Even if its story is a bit enigmatic, we love the look of Luke Saunders‘ colorful animated short film about a future in which sea creatures seem to have evolved into some sort of flying species who thrive off of electricity. It also turned us on to the cool new sci-fi channel DUST.

The Universe in a Sphere

The Universe in a Sphere

Inspired by Powers of Ten and a derivative scene in A Cosmic Voyage, this 3.14″, 1.8lb glass sphere contains a tiny scale model of Laniakea, a supercluster of galaxies that includes our very own Milky Way. The model consists of 380,000 laser-etched dots.

Suicide Squad Honest Trailer

Suicide Squad Honest Trailer

Screen Junkies immolates one of the most disappointing movies of the year. Watch as they hilariously comment on its incredibly apt title, expose the script written for people with short term memory loss, and come up with the best name for Jared Leto’s joke of a performance.

The NES Classic Edition’s controllers have inexplicably short cables. That’s why 8Bitdo came up with the Retro Receiver, a Bluetooth adapter and wireless NES-style controller for the tiny console. The adapter also works with the Wii Mote, Wii U Pro, PS3 & PS4 controllers.

The Cost of “Free” Websites

The Cost of “Free” Websites

Adam Ruins Everything digs a little deeper into the obvious – that free online services sell our data to advertisers. On one hand, targeted ads sustain the free stuff we enjoy (like this website). On the other hand, we don’t know just how much of our data is kept and by whom.

Hang and Roll

Hang and Roll

A travel organizer that combines the functionality of packing cubes and a shelf in the form factor of a tool roll. It weighs just 26oz and has eight pockets. It’s waterproof, has loops for hanging and has a transparent slit so you can easily see what’s in each pocket.

The Story of Viral Jordan

The Story of Viral Jordan

Jeffrey Harrison is a huge basketball fan who suffers from mild autism. But you may know him as the guy who went viral after a video of him playing pick up ball in full Michael Jordan Bulls gear blew up online. NBA show 3DTV met with Jeffrey to learn more about him.

Shifted Lever Machine

Shifted Lever Machine

While there’s no such thing as an actual perpetual motion machine (pesky physics!), this is still a cool demonstration how an off-balance mechanism can run for a relatively long period of time with minimal energy input.

DJ Brace Spins Some Magic

DJ Brace Spins Some Magic

A fantastic performance by DJ Brace as he shows off his dexterity and timing between his twin turntables and mixing board. These days, the discs control digital sounds instead of analog ones – but he’s still got mad skills.

Colin Furze’s Star Wars AT-ACT

Colin Furze’s Star Wars AT-ACT

eBay UK commissioned Colin Furze to make a huge model of the AT-ACT, an Imperial troop transport vehicle from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Its head and guns move, and its guts are packed with tons of Star Wars merch from eBay sellers. Build video here.

Record Player Greeting Card

Record Player Greeting Card

Recards makes unique greeting cards which include a vinyl record and a platform, spindle, and stylus you pop out and fold together to actually play the record. It’s a bit involved to assemble, and the audio sounds awful, but it’s still a cool conversation piece.

BioShock: From Rapture to Columbia

BioShock: From Rapture to Columbia

(PG-13: Language) If you’ve not played the BioShock series by now, do so before watching exurb1a’s video, which explores the many horrible decisions made by Ryan, Comstock and their cronies, resulting in some of the most f***ed up places we’ve ever visited in a game.

Westworld: Every Mysterious Question

Westworld: Every Mysterious Question

(Spoilers, PG-13) Have you ever questioned the nature of your reality? Fans of Westworld will want to watch this season one montage from Burger Fiction. Not every question was answered, but the show is doing a much better job clueing us in than Lost ever did.

Insane Christmas Light Show

Insane Christmas Light Show

You’ve got to see this Christmas light video from Matt Johnson whose latest show uses those big LED message boards you see in Times Square or on the Vegas Strip. Matt’s family used to do shows at their house, but had to move it out of the neighborhood due to traffic.

What they lack in contemporary styling, Grado’s premium mahogany-trimmed open-back headphones more than make up for in acoustic quality, offering up incredibly accurate, clean, warm, and rich sounds, without distortion.

Conan in Berlin

Conan in Berlin

“Crazy Big Man. That is my name in German.” Conan O’Brien took up Flula’s offer to visit Germany, particularly its capital Berlin. Watch him visit a nude beach, submit to a dominatrix, learn a Bavarian dance and just overall spread 100% American awkwardness and shame.

Ken Block Drifts London

Ken Block Drifts London

With May, Hammond, and Clarkson gone, we’d much rather watch The Grand Tour than the new Top Gear, but we just had to share this extended footage in which Ken Block tore up the streets of London with his 1400 hp Hoonicorn Mustang, with Matt LeBlanc riding shotgun.

Hyper Clack Mechanical Keyboard

Retro gaming company Hyperkin applies its design sensibilities to a computer keyboard. This mechanical USB keyboard features super clicky backlit Gaote Blue switches, and has a grey and blue color scheme reminiscent of the classic Super Nintendo console and controller.

Globe x Rogue One: Create Courage

Globe x Rogue One: Create Courage

This Rogue One commercial by Philippine telco company Globe is a short film about a young Star Wars fan whose family, friends and school allow her to wear her stormtrooper helmet all the time. Thanks Ayi!

War for the Planet of the Apes (Trailer)

War for the Planet of the Apes (Trailer)

Caesar and his kin are drawn into a war against an army of humans, led by a Colonel (Woody Harrelson) hellbent on ending the apes, and forcing the audience to choose whether to root for the humans or the apes. Perhaps the next movie will be Rise of the Planet of the Fleas.

Baywatch (Trailer)

Baywatch (Trailer)

(PG-13) From Horrible Bosses, King of Kong and The Goldbergs director Seth Gordon comes a Seth Rogen-style comedy masquerading as a Baywatch reboot. Considering no one asked for it, this is probably the best outcome. Starring Dwayne Johnson, Zac Efron and Alexandra Daddario.
