[Simple vs. Simplistic]
Most people think these two words are synonyms of each other, but they are actually quite different. First, I must say that I love 'simple', but I strongly dislike 'simplistic'. Simple is the beauty of something created with the minimum possible amount of components to make it just right, without going too far to become simplistic. Simplistic becomes almost 'stupid' in a way, since it takes something complex and simplifies it so much, to the point where it lacks its original meaning and substance.
To explain this further, I've found a beautiful and simple piece of work by a couple of animators led by Pascal Monaco. They have taken 35 well known movies and simplified them into a 1 minute animation of beautiful and SIMPLE components, that still make it possible to abstractly recognize the given movie with just a few but key details about it.
It takes a few times to recognize all of them, but it is wisely composed and beautifully executed. Take a few shots at guessing and post your answers in a comment if you would like. I will post the answers in the near future.
