...a movie one of my buddies from college made. Monday Night at 7:30--Austin only gets one showing on their whirlwind tour of the states.

Trailer and Website HERE

The movie is called Box Elder, and while I haven't seen it yet, I've watched the trailer dozens of times. It should be pretty damn funny. The title "Box Elder" refers specifically to the box elder bugs, which are apparently loud, noisy, scary looking, and completely harmless passive/agressive creatures. Kind of like college kids today.

My friend is the writer, director, and one of the actors--he's the friend you had in college that most resembles characters you see in movies. The screwball who somehow manages to get into ridiculous situations yet act like they are completely normal.

The cast will be there for a Q&A session afterwards i believe, and if you're looking for some insight into the final four, I would ask the director, Todd Sklar, who he likes. Dude can pick.

So go on Monday night and support some young, broke artists!
 
what are sandwhiches? Who spells sandwich sandwhich? That bugs me.

The business card and apartment magazine bits gave me a chuckle but sandwhich made me frown.
 
cause I've decide to make a stand
And I'm not gonna take your hand
I'm taking the next bus outta here,
I'm gonna head for Box Elder, M.O.
 
sammwhicheses?

i have no idea, i assume the odd spelling is a plot element, some kind of double-use. I can't make the show tonight (i'm in houston) but someone go and find out please!
