Alarming News: I like Morgan Freeberg. A lot.
American Digest: And I like this from "The Blog That Nobody Reads", because it is -- mostly -- about me. What can I say? I'm on an ego trip today. It won't last.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: We were following a trackback and thinking "hmmm... this is a bloody excellent post!", and then we realized that it was just part III of, well, three...Damn. I wish I'd written those.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: ...I just remembered that I found a new blog a short while ago, House of Eratosthenes, that I really like. I like his common sense approach and his curiosity when it comes to why people believe what they believe rather than just what they believe.
Brutally Honest: Morgan Freeberg is brilliant.
Dr. Melissa Clouthier: Morgan Freeberg at House of Eratosthenes (pftthats a mouthful) honors big boned women in skimpy clothing. The picture there is priceless--keep scrolling down.
Exile in Portales: Via Gerard: Morgan Freeberg, a guy with a lot to say. And he speaks The Truth...and it's fascinating stuff. Worth a read, or three. Or six.
Just Muttering: Two nice pieces at House of Eratosthenes, one about a perhaps unintended effect of the Enron mess, and one on the Gore-y environ-movie.

Anybody can admire a good movie, especially if it’s one of undeniably high quality. Now, seize the opportunity to learn something useful. And to bookmark what seems to be a movie special effects blog well worth bookmarking.
By the time of “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” (1981) [Douglas] Slocombe was a veteran cinematographer, with a rich and varied filmmography in both the United States and in England, and both in black and white and color. He was nominated for three Academy Awards (including “Raiders”), and for ten British Academy Awards (winning three, for “The Servant” in black and white, and for “The Great Gatsby” and “Julia” in color).
His photography gave “Raiders” a classic feel, visually paying homage to the matinee thrillers of the 1930’s, while also raising the level of quality and aesthetics of 1980’s blockbuster filmmaking. The collaboration between director Steven Spielberg and Slocombe is the reason why “Raiders” remains, to this day, one of the best looking action movies of all time.
