Well, it's my first day on Egonweb, and I've already posted twice! That's why they pay me the big (nada) bucks. Some highlights of American News broadcasting, John Stewart and Stephen Colbert never cease to amuse me. I find that out of all the T.V. I miss, I miss seeing them the most (sigh...and yet so much more).
This week concluded Stephen Colbert's Green Screen Challenge. In case you don't know Stephen Colbert, at one point in his show a few months ago, jumped in front of a green screen; lightsaber in hand. After confirming that ILM would add in the effects later, Stephen proceeded to become one of the worst jedi in world history, no, strike that, third worst, behind the jedi formally known as Skywalker, and the once-now-not-so mystic Kenobi. His jumps and girations would attract more eyes than the Dustin Diamond Dirty Sanchez, Caramba!
Fans poured out across the net to do ILM's job for them, cut the video into a Star-bert mini, and then flooded Youtube with their projects. The Colbert Nation was so impressed, they decided to make it into a competition.
This week the two finalists were announced. Bonnie and George L. Only one of them was able to make it to the show, Bonnie had to stay home so George L., as in, George "Frakin'" Lucas (sorry, the geekiness and the parenthesis just keep coming outta nowhere (btw, I know Frakin's Battlestar and not Star Wars, too original.))
For the winning video, and George L.'s, click over to ColbertNation.com
Bonnie won. George left with the boobie prize: stickers and a T-shirt if I'm not mistaken.
And to conclude the show, George L. dueled Colbert. It was nut a pretty sight...oh, I crack no one up.
