I had heard about this movie a little from the design blogs I frequent and was very happy to see that it popped up on Hulu. At only 35min, it’s a very short movie, but is so full of inspiration!

What do people who were once paid to be creative for a living do when they’re laid off? They get creative with their own lives. Lemonade is an inspirational film about 16 advertising professionals who lost their jobs and found their calling, encouraging people to listen to that little voice inside their head that asks, “What if?”

I really have no words for how hilarious this is… Watch parts 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 & 7!

Finally it’s here! The truly epic review/critique/analysis/film making educational video of the 1999 film “Star Wars: The Phantom Menace” There was so much to discuss with this film it had to be long so please don’t complain. If you think it’s too long then don’t watch it. In this opening segment I discuss the major flaw of The Phantom Menace which is the characters and the lack of connection with the audience.

I’ve been reading and watching a lot on copyright laws recently and it is utterly fascinating.
Probably the best movie I’ve seen so far is the documentary, RiP! A Remix Manifesto. The director, Brett Gaylor, not only made a great piece on the stifling effect copyright law has on creativity in this country, but he also started Open Source, which encourages remixing and expanding upon videos. The below video is footage of Girl Talk from the film that was remixed.

Good Copy, Bad Copy’s another good movie to watch.

Also, be sure to visit the Creative Commons site.

And thanks to Drew for sending me an essay by Cory Doctorow entitled Content: Selected Essays on Technology, Creativity, Copyright, and the Future of the Future. Cory appears in “RiP!” and is co-editor over at Boing Boing. I’m super excited to start reading that.

For a movie on how overaggressive “ownership” damages the realm of food and genetics check out The Future of Food (Official Site).

Remix and rejoice!

One of our best friends graduates next week (congrats Rei!!) and Friday she had her party. Gooood times! Saturday was spent ordering in and recovering. Sunday was brunch day! We went back up to her neighborhood and tried out a fun place: Bleu Evolution. Not the most outstanding food, but the atmosphere and back garden area were fabulous. After a chill afternoon with friends Jack and I ran down to Chelsea and caught a showing of Star Trek. Kick-arse movie!

Yup, that’s the breakdown…

Man, posting has been tough recently! I’ve been working so much on j.o.b. stuff and getting our store up off the ground.

Anyway, for now, please enjoy this amazing little video. So visually and emotionally moving, yet cute and quirky!

I’m so torn! I love and trust Spike Jonze to do the amazing job he always has, but I have a thing against really short children’s books being made into feature length films; what Jack calls “The Cat in the Hat Treatment.” My curiosity is peaked and my fingers are crossed, though!

Jack and I saw Watchmen Sunday night, and I must say I really really liked it.

If you’ve already seen the movie, check out io9’s article discussing some of the Easter Eggs in that wonderful title sequence you might have missed.

… I just came across this trailer for the upcoming Audry Tautou Coco Chanel movie, which I got pretty worked up about a little while back. Sorry, it’s all in French with no subtitles; but she sure is nice to look at, huh?
