LYRICS:
A long time ago, in a story so old
There was a beauty and and a beast, or so I’ve been told
They were these two strangers, two lonely souls
But it’s not what you think, no, here’s how it goes:Lets start with the Beast, he was ugly and scary
Pathetic and poor, and horribly hairy
The outside was rough, but once he smiled
You could see that he had a heart of gold insideThe Beast loved a Beauty, this pretty little thing
She was the fairest of them all, and she could dance and sing
But unlike the beast whose love shined the best
She loved herself, never cared for the restLa Belle et la bête (the beauty and the beast)
Quelle tragédie (what a tragedy)
Elle est comme le jour (she is like the day)
Il est comme la nuit (he is like the night)
Il est amoureux (he is in love)
Elle ne se soucie pas (she doesn’t care)
Vont-ils mourir tout seule? (Will they die alone?)
On verra (We’ll see)One day the beast found the Beauty ”Perfection”
Sitting by the lake (making love to her reflection)
The Beast then decided that it was the time
To tell the pretty Beauty of his feelings insideHe stepped out from the shades with a flower in hand
Said bravely: ”My lady, the fairest in this land,
I might not be a prince, but my heart beats for you!”
Oh the Beauty just laughed, so cold, so cruel”You smelly old fat hairy pig”, she said
”You thought I could love you? I’d rather be dead!”
Still laughing she turned and danced to her home
Leaving the Beast, heart-broken, aloneLa Belle et la Bête…
While the Beauty lives all by herself still today
The Beast learned his lesson and changed his ways
He found that true beauty cannot be seen
And that things are most likely not what they seem
So we made another (tiny) book :)

“Where are we going?”
“Flatbush.”
“No, I mean where are we going, going?”
“No. We are not doing this again.”
“Everything seems so empty.”
“Because most people don’t take the subway at 3:00 in the morning!”
“It feels like an endless journey…”
“We. Live. In. The. Bronx.”
“But it all goes by so fast.”
“That would be the point of a train.”
“Pretty soon, we’ll all just be under ground.”
“We’re already under ground, it’s the god damn subway!”
“And what do you think comes after?”
“Oh, God.”
“Really? I thought you were an agnostic.”
“I’m definitely starting to believe in hell.”

Looper movie poster GIF: will more movie posters advance in technology?
Is Looper the first movie to release an official poster as a GIF? There have been many fan-made movie poster GIFs in recent years, but our inquiry into prior official examples put out by a film’s advertising team has turned up empty. The art of the movie poster is continuously evolving, and so is the art of the GIF, a modest graphic technology that dates back to the 1980s and has enjoyed a surprising renaissance over the last couple years. Movie studios are increasingly looking for web-based ways of engaging their audience, so don’t be surprised if the “official GIF” quickly becomes the norm in movie campaigns.
And don’t be surprised if they quickly improve. As eye-catching as the Looper poster is, it’s a wonder that the GIF effects couldn’t have been more adventurous. I suspect the GIF version was most likely unplanned before the advertisements rolled out. The image of stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Bruce Willis mirroring one another amidst a cloud of smoky debris has been on posters canvassed across the country for a while now, and this spiffed-up version was only posted a few days ago on Tumblr, with a caption from director Rian Johnson: “We made a looping Looper gif poster.” While this GIF from the source may have been an afterthought, this could be a sign of more ambitious movie ads to come.
Hey Ronen, Barrett, Timmy — that thing we made for Rian is now a thing.

Sometimes I wonder if I should be more liberal with my hair. #realbedhead #important
I thought this might make a really great chorus to a song, or else a tiny story. So it’s here on hitRECord for remixing.
(I picture it repeated with long gaps between lines, so the meaning changes each time more is added to the phrase — starting negative, moving to ambivalent, getting nearly nihilistic, but then ending with the hint of redemption. (e.g. “I’m tired.” I’m tired of being tired.” I’m tired of being tired of being tired.” “I’m tired of being tired of being tired of being.”))
