Life will survive........
1 of 1 found this helpful This is an great movie. Though it seems quite a dark tale of the future, it's really only visually so, as the story itself is quite an intelligent and heart-warming tale.
Many animations claim to be 'visually astounding' but will end up with nothing that could not be done with live action, if not for the cost, but this movie is beautiful - the story could not be told if not for animation. The characters, though not human, seem to be have dipped in a pot of realism, and in the end it's only the fact that they are not human which makes you remember that it's an animated tale.
Watch this movie!

Nice box, nice colours, nice paper. That's where it ends....
Though not a grand master, by any means, I'm quite an avid origami maker, and a fan of many things psychedelic, so at first glance this was a brilliant book, bringing interests together.
It comes in a nice box, and well presented, with a variety of nicely coloured paper and I could hardly wait to open it up and get folding. It all looked pretty promising, and everything up to this point seemed to fit the bill. Unfortunately, this is where it started going downhill...
The start of the book, like many origami books, included detailed instructions on starting folds and terminology, very helpful and necessary, and with the amount of info it gave, it implied that the diagrams following would be relatively complex, making reasonable models. Not so - the very few models it includes are fairly basic and not completely impressive. In my opinion, the best one was for a peace sign, but this is actually made for you, and placed in the box. This was a little disappointing as one of the best things about following origami instructions is making the folds and then, coming to the end, being impressed with how it has all turned out. The fact that you have one already took this away.
The end of the book has tessellations, which do admittedly look very nice, but the instructions, though clearly written, seem to miss vital instruction - only through doing similar things previously was I able to complete these. If I had not made these before, I would have been left with a number of screwed up bits of paper all around me with a frown on my face.
My suggestion if you like the look of this is not to buy it, but to search instead for a book of tessellations for beginners and also some origami paper, both available on Ebay anyway. Like I say, I am no grand master (or author, for that matter), and it's a book that could have been written by me!

Superb product. High quality and highly recommended!!
I've got through a lot of hair trimmers in my time, not because they break or I use them too heavily, but because of the bizarre functions added which serve no purpose, and make them uncomfortable to use *cough* Babyliss *cough*.
Not this one! This is an outstanding clipper, sturdy, well designed & practical. The package it comes in even has a shawl to wear when cutting the hair! I cannot see the need for me to replace this item for a good few years, and by then, I probably won't have hair left anyway! This is a sound lifetime purchase!
