Thank You Too is a small project started by Hugo Verweij and Joachim Baan. It’s a business-card sized booklet with 30 cards, 5 post cards and a stamp. These cards can be send to a friend or a stranger, left behind anywhere someone might find them. In a book in the library or a bookstore, in a bag of an unknown passenger, in the mailbox of your neighbour.To give some respect, love and happiness to the people around us. To give a smile. I think some people on tumblr need these at the moment. (via Graphic Design and typography)
It’s hard to describe exactly why WALL-E is such a great film. First off, it’s just plain gorgeous. By far Pixar’s best visual work, not only design and texture and realism, but also direction. There are moments of WALL-E that are nearly beyond photorealistic, in the sense that they look better than you could imagine real life would.
On top of that, Pixar absolutely nailed expression and communication using characters who, basically, CANNOT SPEAK. A majority of the film is spent without speaking roles and it plays just plain perfectly.
It’s awe-inspiring and touching and genuine and amazing. Even if you’re the kind of person who doesn’t usually go for animated or CG films, you’d be a fool not to see WALL-E. Not only is it probably the best film made this year, it’s an instant classic and one of the best films made in recent history.
“ Il blog: non vogliamo essere razzisti ma onestamente sarebbe bene che ce l’avessi. Vanno bene tutti, anche se Libero mi comunica una cosa e Blogger un’altra. Wordpress su un dominio personale mi va molto bene perché significa che almeno sai installarlo (e non è poco). Se hai solo un MySpace e hai più di 16 anni o non sei un musicista, lascia perdere. Facebook e Twitter mettili: se non li hai, li avrai appena arrivi qui; se non li hai mai sentiti nominare probabilmente hai un problema. ”
