Saturday Streaming #2

It’s a day late but in any case here are my favourite videos from the past week.

At the Cannes advertising event, or rather festival of creativity as it is now called, apparently the most awarded campaign this year celebrates some of the basest greedy human behaviours in a desperate plea for attention. And apparently it worked out well for them. I don’t like it. Particularly that it’s about Christmas, and it’s a time of year I love to spend with loved ones and sharing moments where I don’t behave like a selfish spoiled brat.

This Lacoste video on the other hand, is gorgeous – quite the opposite and a beautiful film to boot.

John Oliver keeps kicking ass in his new weekly news show, and HBO publishes whole segments on Youtube which is awesome:

13/07/2014 Update: I haven’t updated this segment last week or yesterday. I think I’ll drop the idea, still considering. I was thinking it might make for easy blogging, which may be true but it’s also lazy blogging. I’ll think about it and post another update by end of July on the topic.
