This was pretty easy to make.  Interestingly enough, I used to watch this back in the days before YouTube, but with the invention of YouTube I used that site to rip the video ...

    Well, I’d say that turned out pretty well. I’ve been making some gifs lately and this was one of my favorites.  I’ve been doing kind of boring stuff (just cutting videos down into images) but this was one of the first where I’ve put something into the image to make it unique. I feel like ...

I know, this isn’t from a movie.  But, it is my dad’s favorite joke – every time he opens up a fortune cookie instead of reading his fortune he says “‘Help…. I’m trapped in a… fortune cookie factory?’  We’ve gotta help this guy!” So, this one ...

I was pretty intrigued by this idea and decided to ...
