old school video game graphics go against 3d!

oh, those graphics bring back so many memories xD

Aha… Guinness World Record and commercials.

This time you’ll see a girl escaping the impending un-threading of her world.

Is it wrong that a 1944 short brings back memories of childhood to me?

From my group of friends, I think I’m the only one that grew up with old Disney shorts, and sometimes I talk about them with a whole bunch of my friends wondering what I’m talking about.

Did any of you grow up watching this short? How old are you? xD

Maybe I’m not the only 20-something.

I grew up with this Donald Duck short. LOL

Oh my gosh~ sooooo many memories, though I can’t remember whether I watched this on VCR, or if my dad had tape it on Betamax first. LOL, yeah. BETAMAX.

In this short, Spike the Bee… now old, reminisces of his friendship with a now old Donald Duck. They met while Donald made a living picking up trash from the park, and then became friends and business partners… until Spike met his now wife. The short ends up telling you “bros before bee-hos”
LOL B-Ho <- Mary Cherry.

Jean-Sébastien Monzani just uploaded this gorgeous video that makes you think about the things you love… the simple things you love. Hmm… the video is kind of interactive, in a very basic level. xD

I love the sound of dried leaves when you step on them.

I love the smell of newly-printed material (books, magazines, cd booklets) xD

Those are my two fetishes…

Fluffy Mc Cloud is so cute~~~ ^o^

a bit of mixed media animation is always welcomed~

Well, this is depressing.

Interesting animation, but so SO depressing xD
In comic strip style!

Ugh, still can’t get used to MUBI.

Anyway~ The guys at the site formerly known as The Auteurs are letting you watch some of the films screening at the Libertas Film Fest in Croatia.

My personal favorite was the animated short Guliver, which sorta reminded me of Tim Burton’s style… but you know, about Guliver, in a much more grim setting.

All I know is that you can only watch it through MUBI with an account, which is FREE. You can join, and watch it. They always have a bunch of free stuff, and free stuff is always good. xD

If you’re still not sure, here’s the trailer~

Reading the comments of Bibi’s new single Canned Fish, I learned of this Nuit Blanche controversy.

You see… the video is about 4 months old, so I doubt it’s a tribute of sorts. Having said that, I think the music in Bibi’s video works different in that it creates a lot of “tension” between female Bibi and “male” Bibi — if you get my drift. The original, seen above, has better execution though, even without the tension between the guy and the woman, you feel like it’s a beautiful piece… a timeless classic.

See, same concept, different execution.

Here’s the YouTube version if you don’t have a Vimeo account and want to add it to a list.

Well, no wonder I hadn’t heard about Lady Rouge since her appearance in the Lady Dior series’ Lady Noire. It’s because Marion’s been so busy, that they didn’t have the time to make it happen… instead? They made a music video featuring Eyes of Mars by Franz Ferdinand.

*spazz* Marion in a red dress… and Marion in a suit. I’m a little iffy about her singing voice in that song, but the visuals more than make up for any of it. She’s rocking, and looking smoking hot.

It would look so SO good on HD.

But alas… I can’t access the video through the Lady Dior website at the moment.

Anyway~~~ I am posting because Lady Blue has just been released~
and you can view it over at the Lady Dior website.

Directed by David Lynch (Mulholland Dr., Inland Empire).

Look, I like Lynch’s films as much as the next cinephile, and I appreciate his storytelling and the things he does… but seriously? Lady Blue? It looked too much of a student film to be a high fashion piece. I could accept the hand-held camera and the dim moody lights, but the blurry lights (which I usually love) and the whole “this looks all shaky and stuff because it’s not reality” was just too much. I could barely pay any attention to the purse.

Also, you do not get Marion on a Dior piece and make her gorgeousity blurry.

but you know… you can watch for yourself, and have your own opinion.
