Busy weekend ahead with classes in So CA both days. Prep work is almost done!

Next Tuesday brings not one, but TWO books by Maira Kalman as well as Lynda Barry's latest offering, Syllabus. Guess where I'll be Tuesday?

If you didn't know already, Flow magazine is now taking subscriptions for its international publication. 

Films Coming Out this Weekend that I want to See:

The Tale of Princess Kaguya

Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)

The Book of Life

 

David and I went to The Egyptian (a.k.a. The American Cinematheque) the other night for the 30th (!!) anniversary of The Terminator. It was fun but I'm still a bit peeved at the $25 per person ticket price for a DCP print AND that Schwarzenegger didn't show up (even Cameron hinted that he wasn't really sick.) That said, it was interesting listening to both Gale Anne Hurd and James Cameron speak. David commented that Cameron was much more down to Earth (not as cocky) than the last time he heard him talk (at San Diego Comic Con about five years ago.) Host Geoff Boucher hinted at a possible T2 screening next month. At what cost per ticket? $30? $50? I'll probably save my pennies for 35mm and for guests who actually show up.
