Breakfast Links: Britain, Star Wars & Dr. Horrible


Art for Monday. Believe it.

Once more we venture over to the land across the Atlantic. This time, it seems that the police – fed up with drunks messing up their town centers have hit upon an ingenious new solution – provide them with bubbles upon their exiting the pubs. (via) Hmm.. interesting. This, it seems, will give them something to do other than causing mayhem in the wee hours. If you ask me, though, given that Britain is the #1 casual sex having country in the world the police could instead be providing free cab rides home which would be getting them revellers off the streets and back in the bedroom where they were heading anyway. Or provide them some french men, who require the biggest condoms in Europe (at least as far as they say) to help encourage things along.

See, now if the Britain was full of geeks they could have just posted some notes saying how Michael Heilemann has posted an incredible stash of photos of Star Wars storyboards and filming off images to flickr. (via) It’s pretty amazing stuff – where else would you see Mark Hamill and David Prowse fencing – not in costume? Ah, it’s a really interesting look back at the trilogy.

And for something a little more modern, you’ll be happy to know that the Dr. Horrible DVD is available for pre-order now and is selling like gang busters. (via) Wow, it seems that the series had grossed over $2 million from iTunes sales in the first few weeks – man. And the DVD’s promise many great special features. The commentary is musical. You get that? You hear that? Do you smell what the Joss is cooking?
