The Weekly for 21 November
- In response to Spike's 10 most overrated directors list - Not that I generally expect nuanced film opinions from Spike, but Film School Rejects sends them up nicely.
- From a new study - casual internet use is good for kids: "The ways young people use the internet everyday are transforming learning in ways that adults often fail to understand..."
- 40 exquisite independent film posters.
- The IT Crowd season three - starts today, Friday!
- Looking back on MST3K: "'ALL along,' Joel Hodgson said, 'I had a real healthy disrespect for Hollywood.'"
- Why male circumcision and female genital mutilation are not morally equivalent.
I really did like (most of) those film posters. Some were superb.
…The circumcision thing (well, the /comments/, really) were rather depressing. There was one comment in there that said (roughly) “this is an activism topic, and thus brings out the worst of the internet”. …A good point.
Makes me wonder how much of an activist I am on certain topics. :\
