The Movie Title Stills Collection is an amazing collection maintained by Christian Annyas — a fantastic resource for anyone interested in film and/or typography. Shown here is a title by Saul Bass for Preminger: Anatomy of a Filmmaker. (via Type Division)

For a good part of this year I’ve been working with the guys here at Cactuslab on a new site called Letterboxd. It’s a site for film lovers; a place where you can keep a log of the films you watch, rate or review them, and keep up with what your friends have been watching. The site is in private beta at the moment, and I’ve got some invites to give out — so if that sounds like your cup of tea, fire me a quick message with your email address using the “Ask Me” link on my blog.
UPDATE: I’ve turned off my “Ask Me” form now, but if you are still interested you can submit your email address over at letterboxd.com.
If you’re a fan of architecture and photography, you should check out Kaz Strankowski. Beautiful, minimal black & white photographs that take in only the most well-selected portions of architecture (his work Twins 4 is pictured here)
Kaleidomaniac — More fun and games from Jarred Bishop.
“You mustn’t sit around waiting to die. When it happens you should come into the cemetery on a motorbike, skid to a halt by the side of the coffin, jump in and say: “Great I just made it.” — Michael Caine, from his interview on The Talks.
Lovely custom type and design by Luis Vicente Hernández. I particularly like his fresh take on the design for GO skateboarding mag. (via @newezra)
