ART404 combined all of the opening animations for the major Hollywood studios into one video. The result is a very appropriate metaphor; a cacophony of grandeur. This should be the intro to Michael Bay’s biopic.

Screentendo

Aaron Randall’s fun, but ultimately useless Mac OS X application can turn an image on your computer screen into a Super Mario Bros. level. We’d love to see him build this out to be fully playable. Source code here.
