11.28.11 by Widge @ 12:01 am Comments on this: one. Add your own.  It's The Future, out on DVD from Lionsgate. Here's what they have to say for themselves: Written and directed by the celebrated Miranda July (Me and You and Everyone We Know), the film also stars July, along with Hamish Linklater (TV's "The New Adventures of Old Christine"), David Warshofsky (There Will Be Blood) and Isabella Acres (TV's "Better Off Ted"). Garnering top accolades on the Festival circuit, The Future was named a Special Selection at the Sundance Film Festival (2011) and was nominated for the Golden Berlin Bear Award at the 2011 Berlin International Film Festival. Critics have also praised the indie darling as "a unique and rewarding experience" (Boxoffice Magazine) and is "wonderfully whimsical" (Village Voice). The DVD explores the dark comedy even further with special features that include an audio commentary with July, a behind-the-scenes featurette and a deleted scene.
When a thirty-something couple (July and Linklater) decides to adopt a stray cat, their entire perspective on life changes dramatically, with the decision literally altering the course of time while testing their faith in themselves and each other. Categorized as: Contests

11.26.11 by Widge @ 12:01 am Comments on this: one. Add your own.  It's I Am Half-Sick of Shadows, a Flavia de Luce Novel, by Alan Bradley, read by Jayne Entwistle. It's out from Random House Audio...here's what they have to say for themselves: Colonel de Luce, in desperate need of funds, rents his beloved estate of Buckshaw over to a film company. They will be shooting a movie over the Christmas holidays, filming scenes in the stately manse with a famous and reclusive star. She is widely despised, so it is to no one's surprise when she turns up murdered, strangled by a length of film from her own movies! With the snow raging outside and Buckshaw locked in, the house is full of suspects. But Flavia de Luce is more than ready to solve the wintry country-house murder. She'll have to be quick-witted, though, to negotiate the volatile chemicals of a cast and crew starting to crack--and locked in a house with a murderer!
We've got a copy of the audiobook on CD to give away. Want to win it? Excellent. Here's how that happens: you enter using the form below. Remember you can enter once a day. If we draw your name when the contest ends, you snag it! Good luck! Categorized as: Contests

11.22.11 by Widge @ 12:00 pm Comments on this: 4. Add your own.   Tshirt Bordello, in their efforts to hit the trifecta of stuff that gets my attention, have hit it out of the park with The Walken Dead: 1) black t-shirt, B) zombies, especially The Walking Dead and III) Christopher Walken. Here's their description: The Walken Dead shirt made of 100% cotton. Is it a virus? We don't know where they come from but they can quote Walken and that's matters. I GOTTA HAVE MORE COWBELL! Sure they may be dead, but they're awesome. Order this awesome shirt before its too late… ...And you're a Cantaloupe.
Which makes even less or more sense, depending on whether or not you can deliver it in a Walkenesque manner. Anyway: we've got an XL variation of this shambling thing. Want to win it? Excellent.

11.21.11 by Widge @ 10:38 am Comments on this: 2. Add your own.  It's Sue Grafton's V is for Vengeance out on unabridged audiobook from Random House Audio, read by Judy Kaye. Here's what they have to say for themselves: A woman with a murky past who kills herself--or was it murder? A spoiled kid awash in gambling debt who thinks he can beat the system. A lovely woman whose life is about to splinter into a thousand fragments. A professional shoplifting ring working for the Mob, racking up millions from stolen goods. A wandering husband, rich and ruthless. A dirty cop so entrenched on the force he is immune to exposure. A sinister gangster, conscienceless and brutal. A lonely widower mourning the death of his lover, desperate for answers, which may be worse than the pain of his loss. A private detective, Kinsey Millhone, whose thirty-eighth-birthday gift is a punch in the face that leaves her with two black eyes and a busted nose. And an elegant and powerful businessman whose dealings are defnitely outside the law: the magus at the center of the web. V: Victim. Violence. Vengeance.
