Online Videos Actually Worth Watching

Time Piece (Jim Henson): Pre-Muppets short

this is a moving target; search this, find it, love it

SkateBang (Damon Packard): Kind of a one liner, but still pretty sweet. Play this at maxium volume for full effect.

Phantoms of Nabua (Apichatpong "Joe" Weerasethakul): I imagine this would be awesome in a theater or gallery setting, but dies a little (or even a lot) on my computer screen. Play this one at night, in a dark room, with all the other lights turned off.

Holy Woods (Cécile Fontaine): One of the few European contemporary avant-garde filmmakers that gets a fair amount of attention here in the States.

A Christmas Caper (Gary Trousdale): You know those kids films where the side characters are way more interesting and funny than the main ones, and you wished someone would just make a film with them. Well here you go. Takes a minute to load but worth it.

Sutro (Jeanne Liotta): I just found out about this myself, let me watch it a few times and get back to you. What I do know for sure is that this is not a music video.
