rare blow-up

yes, another appearance by the much-praised 'blow-up' poster from the film by michelangelo antonioni. i think this one is supposed to be pretty rare. but i like the red-white-and-blue color scheme. i mean, its just cool all around, you know? and i really don't have much more to say about it other than how cool it is.

big in japan

hey, here's a groovy sea-green scheme 'blow up' poster! man, the posters for 'blow-up' have got to be like, the grooviest thing since individual puddings. and hey, since this very cool japanese poster for a very cool movie is oddly close to the color of instant pistachio pudding, it reminds me of something i've been wondering like, all my life: like, why is it that Jell-O brand pistachio pudding only comes in instant and never, no-matter-how-hard-you-look, never available for 'cook-on-the-stove?' i mean, i really wanna know. don't get me wrong, its like, ambrosia-delicious just the way it is, but it tends to be a little wetter and has, curiously, a plesant undertaste. i've always wondered if it would be any different made 'the good-old-fashioned' way. if anyone knows, like, please pass it on.

blown

no collection of groovy stuff is complete without at least one representation of the poster for 'blow up.' michelangelo antonioni's suspenseful snapshot of the high-fashion world of swinging late-60's london. i wish i could say i'd seen the movie more than once. but i can say that this image, or some variation of it, has followed me along every step of my travels for the last 15 or so years. no wall is complete without some version of the undyingly mod 'blow-up' poster. so dig it.
