Recreating The Shining

Channel 4 in the United Kingdom has fastidiously replicated the soundstage of Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining – with recreated sets, props, and lookalike actors – for a 65-second commercial about upcoming broadcasts of the director’s films. Even the bear/dog/walrus costume makes an appearance. (thx, jmd)

if i wanted to get politicosophical about it, i would say there's a connection between the lack of british ingenuity and their systematic raping and pillaging of other cultures throughout history.

IF i wanted to do that.
