The One Where Someone Makes A Montage Video Of An Old Sitcom! Yep, someone has made a supercut from old episodes of Friends, which they call "a veracious montage" that "sheds new light on homophobic attitudes in contemporary TV culture." But was Friends really homophobic? There was a lesbian character (Ross's ex-wife) and a cross-dressing father (played by Kathleen Turner)!

CNN Salutes Gothamist Commenters
Dan Meth spent seven months (on and off) on his montage of the Twin Towers appearing in movies, and courtesy of the internet, upon its release he was met with an instant barrage of criticism for things he missed. CNN tracked down Meth to discuss his efforts (which have also received applause!), and puts a spotlight on our very own Gothamist commenters mid-way through Jeanne Moos's report. Moos says, "film buffs can't resist telling Dan Meth the clips he missed in his montage."
Video: A Look Back At The Twin Towers On The Big Screen
The Twin Towers have made it to the big screen more than a few times, and now Dan Meth has compiled a reel of all of its cameos between 1969 and 2000. From King Kong to The Wiz to Ghostbusters II to Superman and of course Manhattan, he did a pretty thorough job. Too bad Man On Wire didn't make it in there though... those WTC shots were filmed in 1977, even if the documentary wasn't released until 2008. What else should have been included?
Fallon's Set Takes Shape
Jimmy Fallon's Late Night website has some photos of the new set (including where The Roots will be set up), because like it or not he'll soon be taking over for Conan O'Brien. It's all happening so fast! Just fourteen days to go until the former-SNL member is at the helm of your post-midnight hour (he just sat in his chair for the first time on Friday). In case you haven't been paying attention, he's also been updating his future audience with webisodes—here's one that'll take you on a tour of his opening montage, which was filmed all around the city (including Brooklyn). Anyone who can watch this without falling asleep spot any familiar locations?
