Inbox Dump

My inbox is overflowing with random links folks have sent me over the past month or so. I'm just going to post them all in no particular order and let you folks sort through 'em.

300 Trailer
Princess Leia Sings in the Star Wars Christmas Special
Pet Shop Boys on the Cold War on which Todd comments: "I think the message of this impressive Pet Shop Boys video from a decade ago is the following familiar and timeless political axiom: If a song by an American disco group (the Village People) gets covered by a British New Wave group (the Pet Shop Boys), a computer-animated sci-fi future will result in which the Soviet Union (despite having ceased to exist a few years earlier) and the U.S. will merge and humanity will ascend to Gay Heaven (precisely as conservatives always warned)"
