Wet Weather Web Watching [updated]

It's wet outside and I'm sitting here watching kick ass (free, non-copyright breaking - LEGAL) videos - enjoy:

Echo - we've all thought about time travel, this short is exactly what I think would happen :-)

Pencil face - plain weird but you can't stop watching.

Smithy at Sports Personality of the Year - BBC Sport Relief Night 2010 - love the final part of the video, nails it.

Ark - dark with stunning animation

Timescapes - previews of the upcoming film featuring the incredible time lapse photography of Tom Lowe

Seems that lot (all?) of these play in NZ - sit back and enjoy a classic full length movie.

I watched The Third Man (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=un26BBFQ5_M), even if it was for the theme music at first :-) And then I watched First Orbit (awesome recreation of Yuri Gagarin's tootle up into space) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKs6ikmrLgg

And then I remembered - NZOnScreen - so much Kiwi TV it's crazy!

And that lead me on to the BBC Archives (http://www.bbc.co.uk/archive/) and Archives.org (http://www.archive.org/details/moviesandfilms)

Man, who needs to rent DVDs any more ... it's all out there online and waiting ...
