MOVIE REVIEW: SAVE THE DATE (JEFFREY BROWN)
By MARTIN WONG
Fans of mainstream romantic comedies and arty head-scratchers will wish that Save The Date was either funnier or weirder. But fans of indie comics will feel right at home with its understated storytelling, awkward-but-honest banter, and minutest of details. >>

BLAKE SCHWARZENBACH ON JAWBREAKER’S BIVOUAC AND CHESTERFIELD KING REISSUES
By MARTIN WONG
On the heels of our previous dialogue about the remastered vinyl, Jawbreaker’s drummer and Blackball Records honcho Adam Pfahler set me up with singer/guitarist Blake Schwarzenbach, who was kind enough to discuss the albums, revisit the time period, and hash over old cover songs. And once again, Adam provided vintage Polaroids. >>

THE WORKING MAN: THE SUIT, THE SITE, CHHUNLY
By MARTIN WONG
If you even skim my blog, you know how I feel about Thy Mai (Pity Corp.) and Tad Suzuki (The Working Man). They’re super creative, supportive, and caring friends, who were recently involved in my skate film program that played in Chicago, Honolulu, and San Diego. Recently, they’ve been dedicating their energies toward a friend in need. >>
