Inglorious Basterds

Finally managed to watch the new Tarantino movie “Inglorious Basterds” tonight. I really enjoyed it. Great dialogue and performances especially by Christoph Waltz as Hans Landa. Looking forward to see more of him in international productions, which seems to be happening soon.

Although I already knew before that parts of the movie would be in German and French, I wasn´t expecting that much. Being German it´s not a big deal for me, but for Hollywood it sounds a bit like a box office killer and I´m surprised that they let Tarantino get away with this. But then, if anyone could pull this off in Hollywood it would be Tarantino, I guess.

Evernote – my to-do notepad for the road

evernote Evernote   my to do notepad for the roadWhen I´m on the road (and I mean that literally) I simply record a voice note in Evernote on my iPhone and then tag it with @todo. I try to get into the habit of checking this tag for notes every morning when I open Evernote and then take actions, like turning it into a to do in Remember the Milk or write down the note. Evernote already has an excellent OCR feature. Now I wish it would have the same for voice or music and sound in general. Imagine Evernote would recognise not just words but also music, like the Shazam app on the iPhone.

RunPee – the perfect movie companion

If you´re the type of person that has to go to the bathroom during a movie, RunPee.com is the perfect site for you. It tells you when there´s a good time to sneak out to the bathroom and you won´t miss that much, e.g. there´s not much talking or happening during a scene.  RunPee even tells you how much time you have and, if you like, what is happening during that time.

Here´s an example of “Angels and Demons” which so far has one good “pee moment” at 1 hour and 10 minutes. Considering that this movie runs 2 hours 18 minutes you might need that break…
