The Big Yellow Rabbit…
– – Someday, we may awaken to find our streets taken over by gigantic plushies, such as this 13-meter-high yellow bunny crafted by Dutch artist Florintijn Hofman in Orebro, Sweden. Although he looks like he’s had a less than favorable encounter with the Cloverfield monster, the Big Yellow Bunny is part of the openART festival in Orebro, where the art is in town, and you can walk around it! “Open Art” may not sit well as a concept with those who regard art as something to be possessed and hung on the wall…
…the Big Yellow Bunny questions the purpose of the public space, and changes the perspective of the monuments within. One can also imagine the even more enormous child owner of the bunny coming to claim it in a Twilight Zone type scenario! The work will be for sale, should you want a 13-meter yellow rabbit.- -Perhaps we could set up a steel cage wrasslin’ match for the BYB with Clifford, the Big Red Dog, or the 16-foot high pink and white wrecking ball bunny featured in an H & R Block commercial in the past; it’s all good…
Hah! – – And to think that they said art was dead!

Toho Studios presents:
“GODZILLA VS. THE LAST MIMSY!”
Rated PG-13.*
*Watch three billion people suddenly start googling to see if this is true (shakes head in half-serious pity).

There will supposedly be a new Godzilla movie in 2012. The film will be shot in 3D, and will feature a CGI Godzilla in a live action film. Supposedly, this film will pay homage to the original character, and not have an iguana-like Godzilla who lays eggs…whew!
