CineSavant Column
Hello!
I hope you aren’t sitting in an airport somewhere, still trying to get home from a ‘minor’ computer melt-down that crippled a big chunk of civilization last Friday. We had a minor hangup in Atlanta with Delta just three days before, and thought we had bad luck. Good grief.
↑ First up today at CineSavant is a handsome bit of stop-motion fun from StopmoNick. It was posted a year ago but has been floating around the web for week; if you’re as disconnected as I am, maybe it’ll be news.
And it’s very brief, too:
The talented animator-craftsman offers additional ingenious stop-motion treats, on his YouTube page, just titled ‘StopmoNick.
And congratulations to Laura of the movie review blog Laura’s Miscellaneous Musings, which has just marked its 18th year. Laura’s posts can always be depended upon for sane, sensible & thoughtful insights. I envy her ability to so consistently ‘muse’ with such finesse. She sees things in movies that flit by my dim perception.
I almost don’t want to think about how long I’ve been doing this online writing … I’m convinced that people I meet must think, “What…?” and “Don’t you know that hard media is dead?” and “Why?” Well, having been able to exchange occasional notes with people like Laura is a reward in itself.
Thanks for reading! — Glenn Erickson
