Leonardo DiCaprio Contemplates His Existence While On A Giant Boat

Yachting Leo = best Leo.

The tale begins with this young man
And a giant ship, on which he could tan
He was curious about life and the deep blue sea
So he contemplated life and what it could be

PacificCoastnews.com

He stood there with a towel and a bun
It didn't seem like that much fun
Yet there he was, a Hollywood star
What was everything he wondered, as he gazed afar

PacificCoastNews.com

He thought and thought and stood quite still
He had no bellybutton, nada, nil
And he wondered about the world and the color of the sky
And as he pondered, the time flew by

PacificCoastNews.com

And then he sat on the edge of his ship
Thinking that life is so short It's really just a blip
But his feet dangled over the edge they did
He felt like a child, a tiny little kid

5 Things You Never Knew About "Adventure Time"

The show’s head of story, Kent Osborne, talked to BuzzFeed about everything from the writing to the final stages of production for the show.

It's a storyboard-driven show (as opposed to a script-driven one like The Simpsons , for instance).

The process begins in the writer's room with creator Pendleton Ward, head of story Kent Osborne, Adam Muto, and Jack Pendarvis, a writer based in Mississippi who communicates via Gchat.

"So we’ll try to write a pretty solid two-page outline with a second and third act — not a lot of dialogue in the outlines, just sort of 'this happens and this happens' broken up into beats and then that’ll get sent to the network so they can approve it," says Osborne.

The outline is then handed to storyboard artists who are divided into four teams of two and have two weeks to do a rough outline, which is then pitched back to the writers who provide feedback notes.

"Even if you have an outline with, say, Finn climbing a hill — you have to draw that, and there’s no direction — it’s just kind of up to you where you want to have the camera movement, and while you’re figuring that out, you might do a terrible drawing but it might also give you an idea. Like, Oh, what if he’s wearing a jetpack? I think that’s harder to do with a script."

It takes about nine months to finish one episode.

"I think from writing a premise to delivering the episode to the network is nine months. So we’ll always have a different episode going on in rotation. Like we’ll write an episode one week but then someone will be pitching an episode, someone else will be doing our second pitch, we’ll be recording an episode all in one week. All these episodes are in different stages of the process. So nine months, like a baby."

There’s no set guideline to making it a “kids show.”

There’s no set guideline to making it a “kids show.”

"I think the shows that end on a moral or 'what did we learn?' — I’ve seen that so much and South Park has been making fun of that trope for so long now so it’s nice to make something and just not have that moment. It’s hard not to talk about it without sounding pretentious, but I think kids can tell when something’s being made for them. The kids at Comic Con are always asking questions like, 'Why did you do this?' and, 'What does this mean?' and, 'Why is that there?' That means you like something, that you’re thinking about it, and you want to know more."

Finn actually ages in the show, alongside his voice actor, Jeremy Shada.

Finn actually ages in the show, alongside his voice actor, Jeremy Shada.

"We’ve had a couple birthdays and we’ve alluded a little here and there that he’s getting older — it is weird because you watch an episode from the first season and his voice is really high ... but he does a good job of pitching himself up a little bit. But from the beginning when we were worrying about his voice changing, Pen just said, 'Oh, well, we’ll just make Finn older.' And eventually Finn will be like a 25-year-old man."

The Second Man On The Moon Wants To Build Two Moon Bases

Buzz Aldrin on the 45th anniversary of the splashdown of Apollo 11.

Aldrin on the Moon.

NASA

Buzz Aldrin, the second man on the moon, wants to establish a pair of bases there, he said in an interview on the 45th anniversary of his return Thursday.

"Now I think we need to participate and lead at the Moon," Aldrin said of his pitch to establish permanent bases on the near and far sides of the orb. "I think the next step is with an asteroid."

Aldrin has also been pushing for a mission to Mars in 2035 — 66 years after the Apollo 11 moon landing, and said that even putting humans in orbit over the redplanet would allow them to more easily control robots on the surface.

"Part of the reasons I that I don't believe the United States needs to spend resources on putting humans on the surface is because the robotic control has improved so much in the last 45 years so that what we can do from a distance, hopefully will be very competitive in its overall economics of what we learn versus what we spend to learn."

Aldrin, like many other astronauts, said he's disappointed in the current state of the American space program.

The United States is "not in a very good position since we retired the shuttle in 2010," Aldrin said. "I've not been overall impressed with this administration's support [for space] since that time."

Aldrin said he hoped on the 50th anniversary of the Moon landing that the next president after Obama would commit to American "preeminence in space like President Kennedy did 50 years ago" with his famous speech.

Aldrin also believes NASA's budget needs to be increased, to achieve smarter goals.

"Because [the budget] is so small they tend to do things that may not be the wisest."

Calling the NASA budget "insufficient," Aldrin said the budget "needs to be 1%" of the U.S. federal budget.

Last week, President Obama met privately with Aldrin along with fellow Apollo 11 astronaut Michael Collins and Carol Armstrong, widow of Neil Armstrong, who died in 2012, to commemorate the 45th anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing.

Aldrin said he didn't want to push President Obama on his vision for space, citing the vast array of other issues the president is focusing but said he was "working closely" with White House Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy John Holdren on his ideas for the future of space exploration.

"I kind of felt it was inappropriate to lecture the president, but I did tell him that I had been working very closely with Director Holdren. Which really tells NASA what to do."

Aldrin had praise for the work of SpaceX, the private space transportation company funded by serial entrepreneur Elon Musk. SpaceX was awarded a $1.6 billion NASA contract in 2008 for 12 flights of its spacecraft to the International Space Station, following the space shuttle's retirement.

"I have great admiration for what he's been able to assemble," Aldrin said of Musk. "Not only to lead the field of electric cars with great designs. They're valued by many consumers, but he certainly is giving the rocket industry a run for its money. In bringing in new people and developing new thinking and new concepts that have proven quite competitive with the older companies that still exist with their overhead and perhaps entrenched methods of executing."

Aldrin said his favorite movie or television series about space has yet to be made, but he's pitching his adaption of his 1996 novel Encounter With Tiber, which he co-authored with John Barnes, which revolves around the discovery of an alien civilization from the Alpha Centauri system that visited Earth in prehistoric times.

"It's in the marketing sizzle stage right now and we just simplified it by calling it Tiber. That I am convinced, if done properly, and I will spend a lot of time in trying to see that happen, that it will significantly we more acceptable, more enlightening than either Star Trek or Star Wars or any of the fantasy films that are now being developed. It has not just one plot, but it has many sequels that inherent in the book that I have with many adjustments since what's happened since the book was published in '96 and where we are today."
