proggrrlFor any of you NY'ers out there, I'm going to this Green event at the Pour House, in the East Village this Wednesday: "a night of environmental awareness including organic beers, organic light appetizers and product giveaways all night long"...Come on down if you like good beer and greening yourself.
Can I take a moment, to comment on reuseable cloth bags and this ridiculous Hindmarch craze that's on. As cool as this Hindmarch bag is, which is very...OMG please gimmeabreaknow! There are a million, zillion alternatives out there. I cannot believe people would freak out and line up all day to get one.
So let me take a second here to show you a few of my current favorite alternatives.
The Thank You tote bag (modeled after a very common NYC-grocery bag):
And a few more courtesy of CafePress:
The “iSlay”
The “WWSD (What Would Starbuck Do?)”
The “Grr argh”
Pretty nice, right? Now go get yourself a few and stop using plastic!
I found a couple of cool trailers recently...
...NO END IN SIGHT: This looks like a one-two punch to the gut. More details here.
...ALL THE BOYS LOVE MANDY LANE: I am not interested in seeing any more superviolent/snuff films like this, but I gotta admit: this is an AWESOME trailer. Fantastic rhythm to it, dontcha think?
...THE TEN: Very funny, and what a delightful and unusual use of voiceover for the list of the cast names. I'm there. (hat tip toamaleka_crone for the find)
...I finally watched the red band (R rated) trailer for SUPERBAD, and it is just as hilarious and raunchy as everyone said it is! (warning NSFW!!!!!)
...KABLUEY: This looks really ridiculous – and has a cast to die for. Does this have a distributor?
...IRON MAN: OK this is not a trailer…but Cinematical found some cool stuff for us Jon Favreau and/or Robert Downey Jr. fans. In addition to showing a shot from the new EW of RDJ’s IRON MAN equipment (looks good), they’ve found a video of Jon interviewing Robert in a DINNER FOR FIVE style (“dinner for two” this time). I loved that show!
Also got a chuckle from the rumor that J.J. Abrams may have cut the CLOVERFIELD trailer himself, bypassing the studio and all the trailer houses in H'wood. Heh.
Has anyone seen SUNSHINE yet? I'm going later today. Very psyched especially after reading the long review-cum-essay in Film Comment, which was excellent but unfortunately is not online. ETA: Updated to add, that I saw it and it was terrific - it's certainly something you should see in a theater for the effects and the huge scale of it all. Marvelous!
