C'est marrant, dans la psychose qui s'est installee, avec les news qui parlent a present non stop de la crise financiere et tout le monde (enfin tout le monde... Seulement les gens "normaux", car les vrais responsables sont bien au chaud...) qui panique pour leurs economies, je suis pris d'une envie de rire. Je devrais pas, apres tout moi aussi je suis concerne par la crise, je cotise pour ma retraite, si ca s'effondre, je perds comme tout le monde.
Mais tout le systeme est base sur du vent, finalement y a pas grand chose qui a change depuis avant la crise, le gros truc c'est que oui y a des banques qui ont plongees mais la cause c'est juste que les gens flippent. C'est plus une histoire de climat. Si a cette seconde ceux qui jouaient en bourse changeaient d'attitudes, genre si on les mettais tous sous anti depresseurs (encore qu'il doit pas y en avoir des masses qui n'en prennent pas deja), bah tout se reglerait, tout remonterait...
Donc on peut voir les politiques lancer des appels deseperes en disant "il n'y a pas de raison de s'inquieter, tout va bien". Et en meme temps les medias rabachent et rabachent que ca va pas, que c'est la pire crise de l'histoire de la finance, que c'est foutu, c'est la fin du monde demain (fallait bien que quelque chose reussisse la ou le LHC a echoue)...
PANIQUE!
C'est tellement ridicule de voir ce mecanisme qui s'auto-entretient dans cette spirale de la peur que je suis pris d'une espece de jubilation quasi-morbide.
Et par dessus le marche, voir les etats les plus conservateurs, ceux qui n'ont eu de cesse d'essayer de dereguler tout ce systeme depuis des annees, se mettre a proner les nationalisations et a encadrer les transactions... Ca tient du genie!
Je devrais avoir peur, je devrais etre furieux. Au fond, je le suis.
Mais cette envie de rire de tout ca est trop forte...
Apres je souhaite pas que tout se casse la tronche... Mais une petite frayeur de temps en temps, ca peut aussi faire aller les choses dans le bon sens...
This blog was born from a very simple question: "How much do I want to annoy people by sending emails about general stuff they might not be bothered with?". The answer being "Not much" I thought it would be better to just put all these things “somewhere” and tell people where to look if they want to. So here is “somewhere”: a dump of things I like, things that I find interesting, funny, shocking. Pretty much anything. Comments are welcome, whether in English or en Francais!
Other things of potential interest...

What people have to do to eat...
Totally by chance (althoug it was quite unfortunate), I came across the last minutes of Police Academy 4 on TV. And I was very surprised to see... Sharon Stone!!!
So surprised I waited the end to see on the credits that it WAS her, not some lookalike. It was.
Well I guess you have to start somewhere... (^_^;

Which Palin?
A new input to the American elections...
I'd vote for him!
I know I'm not qualified to do so, but why not?

Wall-E
I almost missed this one.
It's strange, that I had somehow got bored with Pixar. You KNOW that each time they release a film, it's going to be excellent. Funny, witty, interesting for everyone, in the most noble sense of the term.
I have been blown away by so many of their movies. The last one was The Incredibles, which counts as one of the best superhero movie ever made (and that's not a small thing to say from me, especially looking at how many movies of the genere I have seen only this year... ;) ).
I heard Cars was great, but "nothing more" (!). So I let it pass. Too family friendly. I WANTED BLOOD! (^_^;
I did that for Ratatouille as well...
I was about to do the same for Wall-E. When someone would have eventually dragged me to see it, I would have kicked myself...
You have great movies. Those you can advise your friends to see.
And you have those movies that move you so much you know they'll be with you for the rest of your life. Some kind of milestone.
Wall-E is one of those.
Because of course it is everything a Pixar should be. But it is even more. On just a technical level, it takes (as usual...) the medium to new heights. But it's almost irrelevant compared to what it is.
It is funny & witty, very kid friendly, yet it manages to tackles themes that are very adult and to question our very way of life (at least in this part of the world). It also manages to find a way to depict humanity that is utterly cute yet completely horrible and scary.
And it becomes more than an "eco-fable", it is also on some sort of corporate slavery. How man could de-evolve... A bit like Brazil did. But in a cuter, lighter way. Yet the message stays...
Such ambition for most could see as a "kids movie" (I hate that conception that animation pictures should be for kids, then again it's more or less the case here) is mind blowing. Even if you're a Pixar fan.
So to see it succeed in such a way is just unbelievable.
And everything is so perfectly crafted, from the description of the derelict earth to the relationships between characters, all this almost without words (as the robots don't talk)!
To be able to resist this, not to even have your eyes water in some of the poetic scenes, you would have to be dead.
It's just cinematic heaven.

The end of the world... ??
Not quite. Not now anyway. :)
In the mean time, everything you need to know about the LHC in a glorious rap:
I had no idea the Beastie Boys had entries at the CERN!!

Citation du jour...
(au sujet des jeux videos)
Erwan Cario : Les achievements, j’ai jamais trop compris l’intérêt. Mais bon, si il y en a qui aiment...
...
vnz : Mouais, ça fait un peu comme si tu te baladais avec un badge « J’ai lu tout Stendhal ».
lol!
