A Bad Sign?

By Daniel
Has anyone else noticed that when you do a google image search for the films in this unit, some of the first pictures you find are from reviews other people in the course have done?  It seems like we could be in danger of becoming recursive...

    Funnily enough I ended up getting sent to Paul Lavey's blog when looking for Eraser Head pictures, so yeah...

    Yeah, would Mr Lavey be a reputable source for quotes now that Google is putting him in the top 10 hits?

    That's not a bad sign - it just goes to prove that your ork is now 'out there' for the world to see! :)

    Did you try using other search engines like bing and yahoo? Also,you can just get a poster art on wikipedia and get good stills by gettin' the film in the library.

    Hahaha! That was meant to be 'work' of course - the perils of typing in the dork! :)

    I like the idea of our 'orks' being out there...

    I like the idea even more of students moving beyond the 'one-click- of-the-mouse=equals-research' formula... perhaps you could start looking for research materials in... the library? Also, if you look at your briefs (at the footnotes) you'll see a number of links to lots of reputable internet sources for reviews and critical commentary. There are other voices than Mr Ebert out there...

    @ Drunk Rabbit - indeed - a little more extra effort required, but taking the stills YOU want is so much more satisfying...
