Good morning and happy Wednesday. If you haven’t seen the very bizarre video in which Johnny Depp and Amber Heard apologize for sneaking animals out of Australia, do yourself a favor and just watch Stephen Colbert’s parody of it. After you’re done chuckling/being sad that The Colbert Report no longer exists, it’s high time you see what’s good in gear: the best watch pouch we know of, a projector for watching — and touching — stuff, an iconic and remastered film you must watch and much more.
Pond Touchscreen Projector
Small enough to perch atop your palm, this innovative little guy projects an 80-inch display onto any surface to create a virtual touchscreen. Use the built-in Android OS and download apps to fiddle with it, or connect it to a device with a mini HDMI cable. Included are a remote and two styluses that do all the touching, and there’s a handy video demo right here.
‘Dr. Strangelove’ Criterion Collection Edition
“Gentlemen, you can’t fight in here! This is the War Room!” Perhaps the darkest satire of all time, directed by the great Stanley Kubrick and featuring a brilliant ensemble cast helmed by the inimitable Peter Sellars, The Criterion Collection’s release of Dr. Strangelove is available for pre-order now. It’s a restored 4K digital transfer, with 5.1 surround sound plus new interviews with Kubrick, Sellars and George C. Scott, along with trailers, articles and more. Own a beautiful piece of cinematic history this June.
