Straight from the sexy decade known as the swingin’ 70′s comes this Japanese Television commerical for canned tuna (called “Sea Chicken” from Hagomoro Foods.
In no way, shape or form are they stealing characters and concepts from Star Wars to help sell their tuna.
Oh no. It’s 100% original concepts for this sci-fi themed tuna ad.

I don’t often like to use this as just a link blog, but today I found a Q&A with writer/comedian/my personal hero Patton Oswalt which simply knocked me on my ass.
He’s long been someone who’s thoughts on comedy have intrigued and influenced my own, and I think this interview with GQ Magazine is a prime example of how eloquent and forward thinking Oswalt is.
So, by all means, click through to read about his opinions on the future of the comedic art form, how internet has changed the future of comedy, and even his thoughts on the NBC Thursday Night line up (echoing my thoughts on the series on right now).
And if that wasn’t enough, there’s a really cool poster of his featured (seen above), which I’d love to own a copy of!
Click through, take 20 minutes, and really enjoy. It’s a heck of a read.

As evidenced here at Blast-O-Rama, and hell, across the internet as a whole, George Lucas is very much an important part of cinema’s past, present and even future.
The question is though: with the triumphant Star Wars Trilogy, and the less than beloved Prequel Trilogy, is it possible that Lucas represents both the highest highs and lowest lows of modern filmmaking?
That’s the question that the new documentary The People vs. George Lucas attempts to answer, and with it’s debut at SXSW next month coming ever so closer, the filmmakers have released a new trailer for the film, embedded below.
I, for one, think this will be a great take on a very much discussed and argued topic, and can’t wait to check it out for myself. Let me know what you think, in the comments section.

After a decade of darkness, including a number of games that were hated by the gaming fanbase proper, it looks like it’s time to get excited for some proper Sonic the Hedgehog action.
Just announced for a Summer 2010 release from SEGA is Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1, the first in a series of downloadable 2d Sonic games, hearkening back to the original series (which explains why it continues the numbering standard from the Genesis days).
Set to be available for the PSN, XBox Live Arcade and WiiWare marketplaces, if you’re a gamer, you won’t have an excuse to not be excited. Seriously, watch the teaser below and tell me you aren’t geeked.
I’m a 25 year old adult, and my inner 6 year old can’t wait to spin attack my way through this game. Make me proud, SEGA.
