I just PM'ed mikorp about that - not until May.
ah bummer. the anticipation is finally getting to meOriginally Posted by el twe
Street Life or Trafic or it is called something comes out later this month...a Tokyo based filck.
Go to the news and watch the trailer and other goodies using the TRAFIC link

sorry for the delay, we just wanted it to be great. we are psyched that you want to see it. hoping for dvds in late april. thanks again, and sorry for the delay. i wish we could have told you spring 07 from the beginning. please check the site for updates in the next month!
no no thank you for taking the time to put together a great video. i feel like its definitely gonna be worth the wait.
anyone know where i can see/rent/borrow/download sutherland's "pedal?"
is anyone from mash in this forum?
You can goto your local barnes and noble and order pedal. It's a pretty cool movie for the most part. Its a tad over priced though.
red light go is much better produced, both are around $20 at amazon
mash is going to be like star wars episode 1.
ouch...Originally Posted by Gadeux
Very true...some people will love it and some will hate it. I personally hated Episode 1 but know for a fact I will be in to MASH.Originally Posted by Gadeux

It sounds like a Rapture or Gang of Four remix of a Faint song or maybe even the mall or something. But in all reality maybe it is something off one of The Faints newer albums havent listened to them in a bit. Or maybe is is something completely different and I have no clue.Originally Posted by tehz

how long will mash be ? i heard abut 30 minutes .
apparently there is a picture of me in the booklet for pedal, but i have yet to see the dvd or booklet to confirm it.Originally Posted by sprintcarblue
post a picture and I'll confirm
netflix now has red light go, but not pedal. i wasn't incredibly interested in red light go even though i know a few of the people in it; yet to see pedal. my friend's girlfriend said she saw pedal for sale in an urban outfitters in orlando...Originally Posted by euphoria
both are worth watching at least once, but if you only have money for one...
if anyone has netflix, do a title request for pedal. i just did it. maybe they'll start carrying it. probably not, but who knows.
An .avi of Pedal can be found on demonoid.com, which is a torrent website.

Rogers proposes 'Le Grand Paris'
Ten international architects have been invited by French president Nicolas Sarkozy to present their vision of 'Grand Paris'
In a bid to overhaul the fragmented city, the French government has launched a consultation process requesting architects including Richard Rogers, Jean Nouvel and Christian de Portzamparc to propose ways to improve one of the world's most-visited cities.
Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners has worked with the London School of Economics (LSE), Arup and a number of French sociologists on the proposal, which it is hoped will unite Paris's disparate communities.
'The Paris of today will adapt to the challenges ahead, becoming "Le Grand Paris" of tomorrow, a metropolitan Paris better equipped to face the ecological, socio-economic and urban challenges of the future city,' said Mike Davies, project architect, in the introduction to a report for the proposal.
