Links for 2004-10-16 [del.icio.us]

  • 'Sefton Park' by Monomatik
    It isn't often you find an obscure German EP with the title of the area you live in, which doesn't seem to have any connection to the place. "warm-hearted and fluffy yet serious musical dramas within a delightful and savoury popsetting."
  • How to See the British Museum in Four Visits
    Text of an 1852 guide book. Very much a paper version of the audio guides which are becoming the norm in museums lately and which I love. I just wish the headphones weren't always so intrusive.
  • 'Wonderfalls' dvd cover
    Anything which can make you nostalgic about a owning a 'View Master'.
  • Fisher Price's 'View-Master'
    Now come in a range of designs and colours. There is even one which simulates a microscope. Lucky kids.
  • The Rough Guide to Superheroes
    I'd be interested to see what their definition is. Doctor Who, in or out?
  • luxo
    A blog dedicated to Pixar Animation Studios
  • Kevin Smith saw 'Shaun of the Dead' at Quentin Tarantino's house
    Post-modern.
  • Star Wars Technical Commentaries
    "They would have had independent contractors working on that thing..." The scene from 'Clerks' stretched to an extraordinary degree.
  • 'Superman IV: The Quest For Peace' Review
    "There’s more blather but it’s making my head hurt. Anyway, I think you’ve got a pretty good idea of my disagreements with the film’s philosophies by now."
  • 'Superheroes' by Gyles Brandreth
    Slightly undermined by including Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys.
  • The Claim (2000)
    One of the missed classics of the past five years. An update of Hardy's 'The Mayor of Casterbridge' at the dawn of the modern United States.
