Tony Hawk's Ride Channel

@YouTube have been setting up some new content partnerships recently and @RIDEChannel is one such offering, from Tony Hawk's 900 Films. The idea is to push channels with regular, programmed content - as YouTube attempst to push itself as a TV replacement.

Ride Channel features a number of skateboard-related shows, such as Jamie Thomas' Let The Good Times Roll, Trick-a-day, Hand in Hand - which features interviews with musicians who have inspired skating (Thurston Moore, for example), Free Lunch which rolls down memory lane with famous skaters and In Focus, which provies great technical tips on making your own skate movies.

The Ghost

Clumsy, inefficient thriller. Was going to say wannabee-Polanski, then I noticed Polanski directed it.

Ad Nauseum: Ferris vs Star Wars - Superbowl Special

Another stupid Star Wars/Advertising tie-in .....though this one's for Volkswagen, who nailed that ad with the kid using the force at the last Superbowl. The Bark Side is an ad for an ad that will show at the Superbowl this Sunday. I remain to be convinced.

Next up, the tepid return of Ferris Bueller, in an underwhelming Honda ad. Bah.
