Typographic chocolate bars? Yes, please.

I saw The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo this past week. I loved it, but whether or not you agree, you have to admit the opening title sequence is pretty amazing—creepy, dark and unsettling for sure, but amazing nonetheless.

And speaking of movies, I cannot wait for Moonrise Kingdom, Wes Anderson’s new movie featuring titles by Jessica Hische.
