It's ironic because this is exactly why they did it this way. Now people won't shut up about it.]]>Mar 19th 2010 11:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/

Here's a summary:
Lonely guy finds "quirky" girl, falls in love. Girl does dumb shit, guy tries to help her. Girl takes everything and gives back nothing. Guy gets hosed.

Other than the nice visuals its a story of how stupid guys can be when they think they're falling in "love" with a female. Apparently robot guys also think with their penises too.]]>Mar 19th 2010 10:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/
Thanks for the jaded commentary about your experience with love, and above all, thanks for the spoilers. I didn't know a thing about the story, and was looking forward to just going wit the storytelling. Awesome.]]>Mar 19th 2010 10:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/I mean, it's pretty obvious what comes next.]]>Mar 19th 2010 10:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/

Besides the movie using a completely heteronormative analogy, I'm not sure I would agree with the central question of the movie. Would you give yourself up for a little creativity in your life? That's such a false analogy to think of life as either boring (irony of being a machine) or fun (but reckless). At some point, the hipsters have to grow up and realize that there's so much more to life than just a crappy job or friends and partying.

One particular hipster comes to mind that is making that transition. It's actually been kinda' interesting for me to watch Facebook co-founder, Chris Hughes go from co-founding the 'cool' social website that's overtaken Google Search in the number of web hits to heading up the online portion of then, presidential hopeful, Obama's campaign and now starting Jumo.com, that's hoping to connect individuals with ways and organizations to help the world. Apparently, there's room for the power of social networks that idealist.org hasn't tapped into that Jumo.com can bring to the table.]]>Mar 20th 2010 2:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/Mar 20th 2010 9:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/

That's really it.

I really enjoyed it a lot, of course, I like most things that Spike Jonze does. It reminded me a lot of the Shel Silverstein story "The Giving Tree" done robot and with a mix of creative characters.

Good to know it's online now for viewing.]]>Mar 20th 2010 3:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/Mar 20th 2010 3:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/Mar 20th 2010 5:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/Mar 20th 2010 6:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/Mar 20th 2010 9:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/spike-jonzes-free-web-film-features-robot-love-vodka-long-wai/Mar 21st 2010 10:17AM
