THE WAY OF THE DODO.  EXTINCT IN 2012 ?

Jan 30, 2012

  1. RIM:  Few can remain king for long in today’s world of musical chairs. Watch out Google, Facebook, and Apple.
  2. American Apparel:  Remember Gap in the 1980s? Lose the clarity of your image in the market place and you are toast.
  3. T-Mobile: Age of the Goliaths. It’s all about market share and customer service.
  4. Tivo: When you can stream everything on to your laptop and handheld, and upload everything to the cloud why Tivo ?
  5. Kodak: Digital cameras, then smart phones.  But watch for a reinvention of Kodak around nostalgia. If Vinyl is now re-cool so can Kodachrome.
  6. American Airlines: The fickle industry. One minute it’s all about the small and nimble Jet Blues and next it’s the remerger of the fittest.  AA + US Air = American  Air ?

12. 20.11 Movie Time

MINDLESS FUN

  1. Mission Impossible: The Ghost Protocol

Tom Cruise doing his own stunts dangling from the Bhurj Khalifa in Dubai, BMW concept car racing through the alleys of Mumbai, Kremlin getting blown up, nuclear missile headed to SF, who needs a plot !

3D MAX

  1. Adventures of Tintin.

Pronounced Taintain for the non Tintinologists.   A Belgian comic series by Herge (aka Georges Remi). Close on the heals of Scorses’s Hugo, Spielberg’s foray into 3D.   

SUBLIME

  1. Pina.

A documentary without plot, narrative or chronological structure.  Also in 3D,  the Tranztheater Wuppertal of Germany by Win Wenders. Is it dance, theater or a film ?
