You podcasters are so last week, video is where it's at.
Stairs, moving (Quicktime required) is a little something I put together while waiting for my train last Thursday. I think it captures the waste and inherent futility of modern life while at the same time throws a few shapes in the direction of the De Stijlists.
No, but really, how much would we save in terms of energy and health bills if we outlawed escalators? Think of the electricity that thing is burning, think of how much fitter we’d all be if we had to walk up a few more stairs.

More!? OK then, but I can't help feeling that this will be a disappointment to you.

Does exactly what it says on the (comic book) tin. Loved it. - Little Miss Sunshine

Very funny, disturbing (the beauty pageant) and completely messed up -- but in a good way. - Laputa: Castle in the Sky†
Story great, characterization a little on the weak side -- though the big robots are cool. - Porco Rosso

Stylish, funny, exciting. - Grave of the Fireflies†
Very sad, which was a little unexpected since I didn't know much about it before watching it. Can be a little too slow in places though, otherwise it's very good. - Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind†
The story can get a little dense at times what with the various factions, but still really enjoyable, inventive and engaging. - X-Men: The Last Stand

Opportunity, talent, money - all blown. Over 3 films X-Men has hinted of something great that could have been, this last one says "No, sorry - not going to happen". Bah.
I see your point, in all it’s artistic glory. But the London Underground would be so much more annoying without ‘em.
(Firstly, I love the multiple White Stripes allusions, nicely done. And harking back to when no one knew them and they were about to break. How clever.)
Damn, I will never be down with this. Moving pictures? It won’t ever catch on.
It depends who pays for the electricity. If I am being forced to by statists, then turn them all off. I wonder if a guerilla campaign of disrupting escalators would capture the public imagination.
The night has a new hero.
(And we prefer the term ‘radical underground pirate broadcasters’ to podcasters. Probably.)
