    the surprise in South Africa from Casey Neistat on Vimeo.

    31 Jan 2012

    This was cool.
    I mean the guy has just gone and dramatically upped the stakes for boyfriends everywhere… but still.
    It’s awesome.
    So watch it.
    Because it’ll really make you smile.
    And then go off and surprise the person you love.

    There isn’t much you can say that will do this justice.

    So just watch.

    It’s simply beautiful.

    DA Youth shakes things up

    Everyone is getting their knickers in a twist over the new DA Youth posters for their 2012 student campaign.  As per usual, you can see the race cards flying with gay abandon and the ensuing post-apartheid, flame-war that we’re all so used to by now (guys, get some new material) erupting over here.

    It’s clear that if the DA Youth’s aim was to get people talking, they’ve definitely succeeded.

    The posters are the real, sanctioned, signed off and DASO-approved deal.They’re both dragging up issues that aren’t issues anymore (80′s revival anyone), but other than that I don’t really have a problem with either of them

    EXCEPT

    Why did no one tell me that Patrick Dempsey was in town AND what exactly is he doing sleeping with a girl young enough to be his daughter?

    I cannot wait to see this. Now before you get a fright, The Artist is actually a silent movie. So don’t go in, start watching and then ask for your cash back like these people did. I’ll just shake my head quietly; trust the Liverpudlians.

    The Artist is being touted as a love-letter to silent cinema and the music sounds incredible. I’ve fallen head over heels for cinematic orchestra recently, so it’s right up my alley. Through music and visuals, the film quietly weaves the story of a silent actor whose career is destroyed by the arrival of  ”the Talkies.”

    It’s already picked up 3 Globes and it’s got MAJOR hype ahead of the Oscars. I love the concept, it’s so new… but at the same time it’s so old. If you know what I mean. Have we just discovered Hipster cinema?

    Ladies and Gents, The Artist is how our grandparents used to watch it.
