Considering the shit they get, can you really blame them?

You Know You're a Nerd When...
You know you're a nerd when the first thing you notice about this photo is that scale on those AT-ATs is totally off. They should be towering above those trees and way wider than the street. Clearly 'shopped. You can tell by the pixels and myself having seen quite a few in my day.
Tilt-Shift Photography
Now here's a mind fuck for you. When I first was looking at these photos I thought, "sure, they're pretty good but its not that hard to see that they're actually little models." Oh how embarrassing when I discovered my "obvious" discovery was wrong. Indeed, these are actually real shots with a particular shifted lens and/or depth of field post effect that makes them look like models. Thats right, these are all from real life. Wikipedia it!
PS: Some of the videos at the bottom might help convince you.

Simplified Ratings
-
Article,
Graph,
Interesting
Hmmm, I was debating between switching my little rating system to a 5 star one or a simple thumbs up, thumbs down one, but then this lovely YouTube article sold me on the basic solution. Simply put, people don't use the middle stars anyway. If you like a video a lot, you put five stars, if its only decent you don't bother to rate, and if its total garbage you might put one star. So yeah, rate below what you think of my new change =P
