The Graphic Imperative has some really great posters from 1965 - 2005 encomapssing Peace, Social Justice and the Environment.→[More:]And totally not related, Web Zen has some advertising links that are interesting. 'The Call' seems to be an extended Pirelli (tires) advert, starring John Malkovich and Naomi Campbell. Maybe they're taking a page from BMW's book, and mimicking 'The Hire', only it's not as good.
(youtube doesn't seem to have all 8 episodes of The Hire, but I do. Anyone that wants them, let me know.)

*encompassing*, it's supposed to be.

I want them! Please. :)

I enjoyed watching them on the BMW site when they first aired and have tried finding them all online with no luck.

Some of those posters are really nice.

Looking at some more of the posters, the Free Tibet ones protesting the 08 Olympics are pretty breathtaking.

Sure thing! They're kind of large, and I don't have time right now to put them all up as I'm going over to Elizard's for food and movies. Can't remember what order they were in, so I'll upload them alphabetically. Here's Ambush (63meg), and Chosen (55meg). More later (tomorrow? maybe?)
