THE EM SPACE

For Paramount’s 100 year anniversary, Devastudios has created a new logo for the film studio. A different angle, wider view, a sunrise, and a more realistic rendering make for a fantastic update to an iconic logo. I really cannot wait to see this on a big screen at the theatre. I bet it’s it’s even more gorgeous animated.

I really shouldn’t be anyone’s first choice of movie date. I’m really better off watching them alone. I ask questions, exclaim discoveries out loud, have my computer open so IMDB can be easily accessible, and then I usually insist on shuffling around the extra features when it’s said and done (especially if there’s a lot of technical aspects to the movie). Yes, I will watch the movie again with commentary. Yes, I will watch a “Making Of.” Yes, I will listen to a 20 minute interview with the head makeup artist. I think it’s just because I like seeing how things are made. So, imagine my delight when I found this collection of Behind the Scene shots from some big name movies. My day was essentially made.

If you’ll excuse me, I’m off to listen to the Tron commentary again.

While you battle away the remaining hours until the weekend, know there are other Great Showdowns going on around you. I hope Scottc’s illustrations of the best movie battles bring a smile to your face as you fight through the rest of your work week. Happy Friday.

They’re actually pretty on par with this one.

If you didn’t know that “Mean Girls” was made in this decade, you’d probably believe that the portion of a book cover above was from the 1950s.

Spacesick has been taking the concepts of popular movies and turning them into book covers reminescent of of Penguin book covers from the 50s and 60s. They’re gorgeously done.
