„This much cheap‟ by Serviceplan, Munich, Germany

 

 

„Carglass‟ by Aufbruch, Düsseldorf, Germany

 

 

The German trade press is terrified and I am excited

That’s right. So much cheap didn’t excist before. Redcoon is cheap where cheap is all we got.

Carglass ads need no additional layer and get straight to it. Best practice when it comes to selling. Price porn.

Sick, the second episode of season three #TheWalkingDead, view it here

Expectations, set by the unexpected and fantastic spooky appearance of Michonne (Danai Gurira), closing season two, were not met by Seed, the opening episode.

Instead the audience was taken straight to the terrible behaviour within the young Grimes family (Rick, Lori, Carl), which I experience as more nerve wracking than all of the zombie slaying and ambutation. Of which on a side note, the later has lead to a discarded leg account on twitter @OneLegHershel.

Title sequence and music score are the best TV has to offer, an integral masterpiece surpassing ‘Prison Break’, of which the music however has a way of going deeper under your skin with ‘Prison Break’.

Dave Stopera sums it up.

 

Please leave a pointer in the comments, should you know where to get a video for the title sequence.

Thank you.

 

 

Halftime in America

Halftime in America

No time has required this much assertion and assurance.

 

It’s Halftime in America. And our second half is about to begin. All that matters now is looking ahead and finding a way forward.

 

Shun the non-believers.

 

It’s halftime. Both teams are in their locker room discussing what they can do to win this game in the second half.

It’s halftime in America, too. People are out of work and they’re hurting. And they’re all wondering what they’re going to do to make a comeback. And we’re all scared, because this isn’t a game.

The people of Detroit know a little something about this. They almost lost everything. But we all pulled together, now Motor City is fighting again.

I’ve seen a lot of tough eras, a lot of downturns in my life. And, times when we didn’t understand each other. It seems like we’ve lost our heart at times. When the fog of division, discord, and blame made it hard to see what lies ahead.

But after those trials, we all rallied around what was right, and acted as one. Because that’s what we do. We find a way through tough times, and if we can’t find a way, then we’ll make one.

All that matters now is what’s ahead. How do we come from behind? How do we come together? And, how do we win?

Detroit’s showing us it can be done. And, what’s true about them is true about all of us.

This country can’t be knocked out with one punch. We get right back up again and when we do the world is going to hear the roar of our engines.

Yeah, it’s halftime America. And, our second half is about to begin.
