WINDOWS VISTA - WINDOWS 386 - THIBAULT-THIBAULT - COMPUTER AD - A-TEAM - THIBAULT-THIBAULT - VISTA AD -

Welcome! Welcome! Welcome! VISTA.
The world is yours, even if your ads are just... wow. I know, you don't need it anyway...
But it's not a reason, shame on you. Look at what did you're great granddad, the Windows 386 "The Soul Of The New Machines" at the time, to conquer the world... the craziest longest cheapest fucking long feature advertorial ever!
With, in order of appearance: ex-male porn star man aka the office moustache, Debbie does Computer aka "I-took-drugs-and-I-liked-it", zip zip, zap, zap, scratch, scratch, the A-Team theme, Mission:Impossible theme, rap attack, a bit of keyboard touching, etc., etc., etc.
Check Larry Osterman's old memories,he used to work at Microsoft at the time, he has some hot backstage memories about the film. enjoy.

P Boy, you're my hero

HOT FUZZ - SPACED - SIMON PEGG - EXTRAS - RICKY GERVAIS - THE OFFICE - LARRY DAVID - THIBAULT-THIBAULT - THE NEW ADVENTURES OF THE OLD CHRISTINE

Small Program Interruption.

For those of you who laughed with Spaced, pissed themselves off with Shaun Of The Death, here comes the new Simon Pegg's maneuver: Hot Fuzz.
(guest smallstarring the brilliant Stephen Merchant, just like in 24 season 6's first episode. Oh, and by the way, the 6th season of 24... which you should absolutely NOT watch, because the risks are high: sitting at your office desk could give you the strange feeling of working a
t the CTU, middle east people could suddenly all look frightening to you, and, probably the worse, you will never trust anyone anymore. Don't do it).

In a totally different genre, which I have to admit, I prefer, the excellent Ricky Gervais' EXTRAS. We all thought Ricky had reached the top of the top with The Office and his stand ups, but he's going further with his "next" show. Every single episode is a masterpiece of humor.
In other words, a clear signal that this man knows a lot about human nature.

And as always, the classic, sorry. If you're looking for answers in life, you better Curb Your Enthusiasm, 6 seasons, about 25 hours of mental yoga and physical bona fides (whatever it means.)



Last but not least, if you were in love with Seinfeld (the show not Jerry) and you miss Elaine, she's back and well back with "The New Adventures Of Old Christine". ( here's a youtube selection).



Don’t hate your TV, feed it with good stuff.

M.I.A - BIRD FLU - THIBAULT-THIBAULT - SRI LANKA - INDONESIA - THIBAULT-THIBAULT - M.I.A. UK - BIRD FLU MIA - THIBAULT-THIBAULT

People clap your hands, here comes good taste.
We are all pretty much aware (OK, on different levels I suppose) of the real menace that represents a massive spread of bird flu on the globe.
Well UK singer M.I.A probably thinks it's just a joke: her last single/video is called... "Bird Flu" (H5N1 was a bit too medical...).
The songs has not much to do with the killer flu, but at least she had the delicacy of shooting the video in Sri-Lanka, where birds already died, she could have shot it in Indonesia or Nigeria. Landscapes are nice too out there...
Anyway, keep on dancing. Until you drop...
update ! I just read today that M.I.A called her single "Bird Flu" because... the beat is gonna kill everyone. Believe it or not.

TRACKS - ARTE - TV SHOW - INDECLINE - PAUL VERHOEVEN - BUMFIGHTS - SLINKACHU - HOTEL MODERN - THIBAULT-THIBAULT - TRACKS

Pretty, pretty, pretty good Arte "Tracks" show yesterday evening on TV.
As their 10th year anniversary is coming up, they definitely deserve a nice post to cheer up a decade of digging in the multicultural underground. Here's a choice of the exciting yesterday's lineup:




Ryan McPherson's INDECLINE
Bumfights... you'll judge for yourself. But to judge right you'll have to know and respect Bling Bling the Coolest Crack Addict and Rufus the "Homeless Dirty Stunt" prima donna.






PAUL VERHOEVEN
A filmography long like an arm, the Californian Amsterdamer director, is the man behind, just to mention a few ROBOCOP, TOTAL RECALL, BASIC INSTINCT, STARSHIP TROOPERS but also a nice collection of early films (unknown for mot of us) which are probably worth viewing. Help yourself.


MINI MINI MICRO world.
Shit ! I wanted to have that idea... great job from London's Slinkachu.




MINI MINI MICRO horror.
Hotel Modern Camp... making it smaller doesn't make it less impressive.



and a lot of other nourishing ideas... as usual with "TrackS".
Haappyy BB. DDaayy.

thanx to TRACKS and ARTE
