Working on my reel

Muito trabalho!

String Quartet - Tool - Schism

E enquanto procurava mais lullabies no youtube descobri isto:




Maravilhoso!

Rockabye Baby!

Descobri isto num dos últimos posts do blog do Nuno Markl e achei o conceito fantástico!
Converter clássicos de gente adulta para lullabies à medida dos mais pequenos. Nunca pensei que alguma vez fosse possível por uma criança a ouvir Tool, Metallica, Nirvana, NIN e muitos outros sem que esta desatasse a chorar assustada. Ok, não é verdadeiramente nenhuma dessas bandas a tocar, são versões, mas o resultado é interessantíssimo, há que admitir.
Ficam aqui algumas versões encontradas no youtube:

Tool - Lateralus




Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit




The Eagles - Hotel California

I sent my Soul through the Invisible

I sent my Soul through the Invisible,
Some letter of that After-life to spell:
And by and by my Soul return'd to me,
And answer'd "I Myself am Heav'n and Hell":

Heav'n but the Vision of fulfill'd Desire,
And Hell the Shadow from a Soul on fire,
Cast on the Darkness into which Ourselves,
So late emerged from, shall so soon expire.

We are no other than a moving row
Of Magic Shadow-shapes that come and go
Round with the Sun-illumined Lantern held
In Midnight by the Master of the Show;

Omar Khayyam

Watchmen

Pude assistir à antestreia do filme na quarta-feira passada e devo dizer que está fantástico. Extremamente fiel ao livro com um casting fabuloso e momentos inesquecíveis, é um dos filmes do ano. Um must see para os fãs do livro de Alan Moore e para todos os que gostam de uma grande história de super heróis negra, complexa, violenta e explicita a todos os niveis.
O meu amigo Miguel Ferreira assistiu comigo ao filme e já lhe fez a crítica. Podem lê-la aqui.

40 Inspirational speeches in 2 minutes

"Shame on you. This could be the greatest night of our lives, but you're going to let it be the worst. And I guarantee a week won't go by in your life you won't regret walking out, letting them get the best of you. Well, I'm not going home. We've come too far! And I'm going to stay right here and fight for this lost cause. A day may come when the courage of men fails... but it is not THIS day. The line must be drawn HERE. This far, no further! I'm not saying it's going to be easy. You're going to work harder than you ever worked before. But that's fine, we'll just get tougher with it! If a person grits his teeth and shows real determination, failure is not an option. That's how winning is done! Believe me when I say we can break this army here, and win just one for the Gipper. But I say to you what every warrior has known since the beginning of time: you've got to get mad. I mean plum mad dog mean. If you would be free men, then you must fight to fulfill that promise! Let us cut out their living guts one inch at a time, and they will know what we can do! Let no man forget how menacing we are. We are lions! You're like a big bear, man! This is YOUR time! Seize the day, never surrender, victory or death... that's the Chicago Way! Who's with me? Clap! Clap! Don't let Tink die! Clap! Alright! Let's fly! And gentlemen in England now abed shall know my name is the Lord when I tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our Independence Day!"
