MIAMI: Trailer spot for the 9th Miami Gay & Lesbian Film festival.

VIDEO GAME DOG: Would this breed be called a Wiimeraner?

TRICKS OF THE EYE: Or should we say these guys are just throwing shade?

Ok the sunshade video is obviously using camera trickery...but how? In several shots, particular after the dude has "caught" the shades on his face, his movements seem as if they are being played back in reverse. So I think they are splicing video together: video of the guy tossing the shades, (CGI?) of the shades flying through the air, and a reverse shot of the guy catching the shades, which if it were played forward, would show the shades being "pulled" off his face using string.

Jeeez, I'm bored huh?

BTW -- the sunglasses video is part of a viral marketing campaign (http://www.metafilter.com/61014/Dude-catches-sunglasses-with-his-face)for Ray-Ban's Wayfarer relaunch (http://www.wallpaper.com/design/Ray-Ban_Wayfarer_relaunch/1253).

The "Bear" clip is HYSTERICAL.

I really like The Big Gay Sketch Show. It is irreverent, offensive, stereotyping and hillarious in the tradition of "In Living Color" (another favorite of mine). No one is spared being made fun of so no one can be offended.

I think Logo has a winner with this one.
