    I’m out of practice.

  • Famous Movie Scenes, Part II

    Less than 24 hours ago I posted a collection of some of my favorite movie scenes, and it quickly became the most popular piece of media ever created.  I was nominated for twelve Pulitzer Prizes and three Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards, and I was declared President of the Earth and Related Planetary Systems.

    So here are a few more.

    The jury from 12 Angry Men.

    Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell in His Girl Friday (1940).

    Boris Karloff in Frankenstein (1931).

    I’m pretty sure that’s every movie ever made.

  • Famous Movie Scenes

    Some movies are so momentous that they are forever burned into the collective consciousness. Here are a few I appreciate. Every time I see them I find something new.

    Orson Welles and Kermit in the famous campaign scene from Citizen Kane.

    Barbara Satanwyck, Fred MacMurray, and Grover in the grocery store scene from Double Indemnity.

    Anthony Perkins, Miss Piggy, and Janet Leigh in Psycho.

    The cast of Spotlight.
    And a more recent film, the modern classic Spotlight (2015).

    Do you like movies? Really? Then name seven of them.

  • I accidentally became a font designer

    I never watched Lost in Space, but it had a couple of awesome themes. I really like the Season 3 opening:

    I thought it would be fun to remake it new people, but I didn’t want to hand-draw the titles to match the style of the original text. I looked for a font that was close enough to fake it, but I didn’t find anything I liked. So I did the only sensible thing: I made my own font.

    Danger, Will Robinson!

    As I was making it I realized it still wasn’t quite right, but I liked it enough to “finish” it. It’s not a complete font. It’s all caps (except that pesky lowercase i), and it has numbers and a lot of common symbols and punctuation, but nothing fancy. I’m still going to use it.

    I also thought I’d share it. It’s free, and a bargain at twice the price!
