I’m probably going to want to screencap every single frame of (500) Days of Summer, aren’t I? (via zooeydeschanel)

Chuck Jones apparently directed sections of The Jungle Book in the 1970s; nothing to compare with his Looney Tunes work, but still. Interesting to watch - and Wile E. Coyote makes a cameo! (via Cartoon Brew)

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Trailer C - Trailer Addict
- Looking good; although I think I’ve now seen all the special effects shots in the film. Save some stuff for the real thing, guys!

The Substance of Style Pt 1: Wes Anderson and his pantheon of heroes →
The first in a series of video essays written and edited by Matt Zoller Seitz at Moving Image Source delving into the films of Wes Anderson. In this entry, Seitz outlines a few of Anderson’s most prominent influences, from the French New Wave to Peanuts. The text on the page is a transcription of Seitz’s narration on the video, which you play by clicking the video on the right. So I suggest you click the video and watch/listen rather than read the text first like I did. Looking forward to the others in the series!

Henry Jenkins - Locating Fair Use in the Space Between Fandom and the Art World →
New Media Professor and Convergence Culture author Henry Jenkins hosts an article by a young artist who appropriates pop culture in her work - something which goes fine in the art world, but gets her into trouble when she posts her work on YouTube. I’ve seen a lot of things from film/television/new media critics and scholars about appropriation and fair use in the YouTube era, but this is an interesting take from someone in the fine art world.
