In case you haven’t seen this, Pixar has established a website for the fictional corporation in their forthcoming film Wall-E.

Check out BuynLarge.com. Once you realize it’s bogus, it’s subversively hilarious. And check out the Store page (with actual stuff for sale).

(Thanks Brad Constantine and the Luxo Blog)

The site is great fun but I couldn’t help but thinking I was looking at where the Walt Disney Company is headed.

I particularly love the BnL Legal T-Shirt, with its lines and lines of small print XD

God I thought that was real, still, it’s no different from the path America and the rest of the planet’s heading to. I’m already starting to consider myself as a Luddite as I find it inconvenient to try to buy anything from one or two giant places nowadays than the local hospitality I used to receive from a smaller local shop.

Already I got sad yesterday when I glanced at this article in my local paper to find out the hardware store a mile west of me is closing for good after 80 years of service, all for another mammoth drug store to locate to, just across the street from a Walgreen’s. :-(

I’m completely floored by all the articles. Hilarious!

I want that T-shirt.
The fun I would have explaining it to people.

I think the best fun is to NOT explain it at all, they’ll just think you’re a part of THE SYSTEM!

It’s a hell of a trick to be as big as Pixar and still be able to pull off such believable subversion.
