The animation short Zoudov was created by three students – Clement Bolla, Aurelia Vernhes and Laurent Gillot, as their final year project at the Supinfocom animation school in Arles, France.
Set during the heyday of the cold war – the paranoid 1960s’, the short film has a lot of suspense, espionage and an absolutely brilliant soundtrack. It is very similar in style to Pixar’s The Incredibles. The animation is smooth and fluid, and the production is first-rate. The ending may be a disappointment to some, but it’s perfect, when you consider the genre of the film.
This creative trio have a brilliant future ahead of them.

More retro movie madness. This is one of the awesomest clips, I have ever been able to lay my eyes upon.
Forget about the news of Tony Stark (Iron Man) making a guest appearance in the upcoming Hulk Movie. Now imagine, Spider-man, El Mariachi, and a Mecha/Gundam robot, all coming together in a movie. That would rock. Unfortunately, it would be close to impossible for Hollywood studios to get all these characters from different genres into a single movie. Imagine the endless, bitter negotiations, rights acquisitions and piles of paperwork. But the good folks in Japan (bless their big hearts) have already done it. Obviously, they didn’t bother to get the rights for these famous characters, but who really gave a heck those days.
The last scene in the clip, takes the film to a different level. El Mariachi drives away with his lover son, leaving a forlorn Spider-man to wonder at what might have been. Wow ! A Brokeback Mountain story arc, too ?

The Rinspeed sQuba concept car will be unveiled to the general public during the Geneva Motor Show in March 2008.
This sports car has some futuristic features under its frame. The makers claim that the car is a completely zero emission vehicle, as it is powered by rechargeable Lithium-Ion batteries. And it can drive itself, without any input from a driver – all thanks to a sophisticated laser sensor system from the Hamburg company Ibeo. But the best feature of the car is its ability to move under water like a submarine. CEO of Rinspeed, and avowed James Bond fan, Frank M. Rinderknecht, was inspired to build this car, after watching Roger Moore use a submersible car in The Spy Who Loved Me’. The car can not only traverse water bodies, but can also dive till a depth of 10 m, with top speed of 3 km/h underwater.
Due to an open top design, the driver will have have to breathe underwater using compressed air from an integrated air-tank.
Watch this video to see the car in action:
