A few days ago Tumblr released the new “Explore” page (See above) as a way to better present all of the things that are going on in the Tumblrverse. The premise is to capture content by the use of #tags. You know that thing at the bottom of the page…

I totally agree!

Beautifully done. This is just the trailer, but you can tell that this is going to be an excellent story and great animation!

The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr Morris Lessmoreby Moonbot Studios Inspired, in equal measures, by Hurricane Katrina, Buster Keaton, The Wizard of Oz, and a love for books, “Morris Lessmore” is a story of people who devote their lives to books and books who return the favor. The Fantastic
Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore is a poignant, humorous allegory about the curative powers of story. Using a variety of techniques (miniatures, computer animation, 2D animation) award winning author/ illustrator William Joyce and Co-director Brandon Oldenburg present a hybrid style of animation that harkens back to silent films and M-G-M Technicolor musicals. “Morris Lessmore” is old fashioned and cutting edge at the same time.

Cool!

“How much would someone have to pay to lick a subway poll?”

“Eww.” my wife said, a clear look of discuss on her face. “Why?”

“Cause…how much would it cost?” I pressed.
