Re-ignite my fire: Thoughts about the current predictable state
of F1 and the new rules supposedly created to improve the thrill of
this sport.

It is proposed that Ferrari be required to staff its
team entirely with Italians – half from the north and half from the
south – to ensure the maximum possible disharmony and subsequent
reduction in on-track performance.

In my opinion, any attempt of rebalancing forces in any sport takes
away the fun.



Fantas: Bug

Bug
(2002)
: Perhaps the most original film I watched this year at
href="http://www.andrerestivo.com/weblog/archives/001815.html">Fantasporto.

The film revolves around the fact that all actions will have a
consequence
, or even better, all consequences had a
previous action
, or something like that.

The first thought I had after watching the movie was: How in
the hell will I explain what this film is about in my blog?
. I
guess the best way will be with an example:

Did you ever think about the consequence of not giving a tip to a
waiter, that will go shopping after he leaves the restaurant and
that won’t have enough money to buy food for his baby, making him
cry all night, leading to his neighbour deciding she doesn’t want
to have kids, making her husband argue with her and getting a
divorce? All because you didn’t tip the waiter! And why didn’t you
tip the waiter? Probably you’ll be able to find a sequence of
events that led to that situation too.

Bottom line: Original and entertaining.
