Wow.
My big complaint about Christopher Nolan is that his films have been emotionally very cold. This looks like a complete 180˚ in that department. Interstellar shoots for the stars on November 7, 2014.

Trailer Watch: Red band Snowpiercer trailer
Friday, May 9th, 2014
I hope Captain America: The Winter Soldier has earned Chris Evans enough clout to get a wide release for Snowpiercer, because damn, it looks pretty fun. (In spite of the silly French-sci-fi premise.)
The Bong Joon-ho flick finally reaches the U.S. of A. on June 27th — fully intact, not the Harvey Weinsteined version, but as a platform release instead of a wide release.
Multiplex: There and Back Again wins an IPPY!
Tuesday, May 6th, 2014
I’m very pleased to (officially) announce that Multiplex: There and Back Again (Book Two) has won the Gold Medal for Graphic Novel/Drawn Book–Humor/Cartoon in the 2014 Independent Book Publisher Awards (a.k.a. the IPPYs)! That’s right, Multiplex is now an award-winning comic strip, and I am an award-winning cartoonist. Also, an award-winning publisher and book designer. (I don’t really count the 2008 WCRCA for Best Supporting Character.) You can see the complete list of winners over at the Independent Publisher site.
In celebration, I’m offering $5 off Multiplex: There and Back Again for the next TWO WEEKS ONLY! (This basically amounts to free shipping for US folks — or a free upgrade to the Artist’s Edition — and a shipping discount for the rest of you fine folks who have read this far down.) This sale expires 5/20/14!
