Tom Cruise joins Chinese microblogging

Posted: 14 Mar 2011 01:49 AM PDT

Tom Cruise Sina WeiboAmerican actor Tom Cruise has opened an account at Sina Weibo, a Chinese microblogging site similar to Twitter.

Many international social networking sites, e.g. Facebook and Twitter, are banned in China. But their local microblogging sites, obviously under scrutiny of the Chinese government, are blooming since 2009.

Many Chinese celebrities, including those from Hong Kong and Taiwan, have jumped on the bandwagon. A few Japanese stars have also become more popular than ever after joining these sites.

AFAIK Tom Cruise is the first Hollywood A-list actor to join the fun. He already has over 300,000 followers since activating his account on February 23, though it looks like his account is managed by his subordinates instead of him personally.

Girl Walks Into a Bar – free Youtube movie

Posted: 13 Mar 2011 10:23 PM PDT

Girl Walks Into a Bar is said to be the first major (Hollywood) motion picture made for the internet. It tells the story of a group of apparent strangers over one night across ten bars throughout Los Angeles. Check out the trailer (a bit NSFW) below. You can watch the movie (1hr 20m) for free on Youtube.

Not great, but not bad either. It’s probably worth watching for the sake of knowing what the hype is about, especially if you are a fan of one of the cast, i.e. Carla Gugino, Zachary Quinto, Danny DeVito, Josh Hartnett, Rosario Dawson, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Aaron Tveit, Robert Forster, Amber Valletta, Gil Bellows, Kevin Zegers, Alexis Bledel, Michelle Ryan, and Xander Berkeley.
