Wholphin No. 6 will feature a great white shark, an Academy Award-winning animated short, an Elmore Leonard adaptation, and a bizarre/hilarious Australian Aboriginal TV version of Car Talk. Also, while we are in no way promising Paul Thomas Anderson's now infamous Elliott Smith short, we are indeed still looking for it. We're also looking at the early work of Werner Herzog, Guillermo del Toro, and Richard Kelly, because we know you like good things.
Wholphin is a quarterly DVD magazine from McSweeney's, lovingly encoded with unique and ponderable films designed to make you feel the way we felt when we learned that dolphins and whales sometimes, you know, do it.
What, you may ask, is a Wholphin?! Photographic evidence can be found languishing in the nooks and crannies of the internet, but those too busy to visit Google for the 28th time today can trust us that it's the lovechild of a bottlenose dolphin and a false killer whale. A beautiful hybrid born of invention and exploration.
