Or is THAT DRESS, Fifty Shades of Grey?

That stupid colour changing dress! I see it as white and gold for about 30 seconds every time I look at it, then it's blue and black.

How about this, 50 shades of grey version.

...wait for it.

Take a moment of your day to admire the sheer beauty of design seen on the Jack Daniels Bar Stories microsite. It's so beautifully designed and so enticing that you'll want to waste your hours watching every little video on the page. I've watched one so far, 'The Babysitters Club', it was hilarious and brilliant.

Wonderful stuff for a monday!

Kris Wilson - more reasons why he's awesome

I posted a long time ago about Kris Wilson and his awesome comics. It has been my most popular blog post and he's produced even more brilliant and hilarious content since. Here's a couple of my favourite Kris Wilson comics I've seen recently.

Her (2013) | ★★★★

Took every megabyte of my breath away

Director Spike Jonze has taken the simple notion of a man falling in love with a computer and wrapped it beautifully this complex, intricate and charming story. It is a story that portrays a not-so-distant future where technology has advanced so far that computers now have an intuition and actually develop a personality based on their interactions and experiences.

So, take this notion and combine it with a man(Theodore; played by Joaquin Phoenix) who has just split from his wife, childhood sweetheart nonetheless, and needs some form of connection and companionship to bring his life back to order. This companionship comes in the shape of Samantha, a brand new computer operating system (O.S.).

Theodore is hesitant at first but soon realises that Samantha is much more than just an operating system and quickly becomes rather attached to his new friend. Samantha has a fresh and excited outlook on life, and through her eyes Theodore becomes much happier and positive as a person. This relationship soon develops and becomes much more, there are questions to be answered and in some cases they may not find the answer they are looking for. Is it really possible to be in love with an OS?

There are a few other little sub-plots in the story, one of my favourite little bits being Theodore's career. He works for 'hand-written-romantic-letters.com' *or something like that) who provide a service for loved ones to send letters to their darlings without having to actually write it. Not exactly a nice thought, that a service like that would be so in demand that it made a profitable business, but the silver lining is that Theodore's writing is absolutely sublime. The letters he writes are beautiful. I won't add in a spoiler here but this sub-plot has a sweet development later in the film that was a great little surprise, thanks for that one Spike Jonze.

This film makes you think, what is a 'normal' relationship anyway!? All we really need is to fill our lives with joy.

It's a medium-pace romantic film with a hint of sci-fi futuristicness. Defintiely watch it if that's the kind of mood you're in, it will not disappoint.

★★★★

Elysium (2013)

Intelligent, exhilarating, a brilliant sci-fi film.

Following District 9 Neill Blomkamp had to pull out all the stops on his next film to continue impressing audiences and cement his position as an excellent sci-fi direct. With Elysium he has done precisely that.

Based in 2154, the wealthiest of the human population now live on a space-station called Elysium. Disease and suffering has been eradicated and they live in a life of luxury. Earth itself is over-populated and ruined. What makes this film different and particularly interesting is the portrayal of both a utopian and dystopian futures.

The visual styling of the dystopian earth is instantly recognisable as a Blomkamp world, similarities between it and the scenes in District 9 can be seen right down to the design of the weapons. It is a style that makes for very believable sci-fi.

Matt Damon once again puts in a great performance, but it is Sharlto Copley(District 9) in the role of the baddie called ‘Kruger’ who really steals the show. Every time he is part of a scene he commands all of your attention as a viewer. It’s a starkly different character and personality to the role Copley played in District 9, and a credit to his acting prowess.

I was fully entertained by this film. A brilliant sci-fi and the best part is that it’s an action film too! What more could you ask for?

I fully recommend this film.

★★★★
