I’m absolutely thrilled about the upcoming film Coraline. Watch the trailer here:

I saw the preview when I went to see Bedtime Stories (don’t ask). The story seemed intriguing and the animation was beautiful, not to mention the fact that it’s a Focus Feature film (Milk, Traffic, Eternal Sunshine, Lost In Translation) <3<3<3.
When I searched for more information, I knew I HAD TO see this movie. It's based on a story by Neil Gaimen, who is kinda a big deal (in college I almost got addicted to comics thanks to The Sandman). It’s out on Feb 6. Only two more weeks!
I’m also incredibly excited about Who Killed Amanda Palmer, a photo storybook featuring one of my favorite performers (Amanda), and an amazing author (Neil).
Here’s a clip of Amanda performing “Trout Heart Replica” at Bimbo’s last month. She had been writing the song on tour, and finished it the day she was performing in San Francisco. It’s such a lovely, heartbreaking song.

i used to play shows with Amanda and Brian back home in Boston, They are absolutely amazing musicians and people. “Who Killed” is going to be insane…i cannot wait for it.
@Jimmy you used to play with them?!?!?! That must have been so much fun.
Saw it late last night after work, pretty good movie! … I came home looking for that secret door in my wall! :O
@Drew lucky you! I hope you found a secret door. I’ll be looking for one too
@Karen Ha! You better keep me up to date on your door search! … When you find it, I’ll meet you on the other side, haha. :]
