While 3D movie prices are trying to be raised up to $4+ (more info HERE) from their current $15+ price tag why not watch two great movies/videos for free. Below check out two recent findings which were a fantastic watch. The first is the Beautiful Losers Movie via FreshNerd (HERE) and the second is the preview video for Turmkunst 2010(HERE). Turmkunst is the project of a lifetime if you think about it. The video speak for itself and if this is the direction that urban/street/contemporary art is going it is extremely exciting.
PaperMonster is officially the big 25!! What better way to celebrate than share some new photos of what I have been cooking up in the studio. With the weather getting warmer on the east coast I have been putting the final touches on a bunch of new paintings and evolving past stencils. You can catch a quick snapshot of what I mean below. Stay posted because this spring/summer is looking to be one of the most exciting seasons EVER!!
Enjoy
PaperMonster Guess who got a new camera for his Birthday? ME!! I have been cutting a bunch of these tiny beautiful flowers for many of the new paintings experimenting with different types of papers and effects. I ran into this gem of paper while creating the collage work for a new piece.
Hulk Hogan vs IronMan? Who would win?

Next up!! One of the best FREE games I have played in quite some time. CartoonNetwork presents Stark Tower Defense (HERE) which is a action strategy game based on the new cartoon Super Heroe Squad.

Finally we have another amazing iPod/iPhone game game release this time from the talented people over at Gameloft titled: Brothers in Arms 2 (HERE) . Trust me when I say this; iPod Touch games and iPad games are going to be taking over the gaming industry. The quality of these games is incredibly high and the cost to purchase the games is so low if not free. Brothers in Arms 2 has a great campaign/story mode and an even better multiplayer experience where you can play on teams, domination, or deathmatch. I recommend this game to everyone!! Find me in multiplayer as PaperMonster. Check out the full review of the game here: http://toucharcade.com/2010/02/22/brothers-in-arms-2-gameloft-ups-its-battlefield-game/
