  1. Actually I remembered my Mom really liked Little Nemo in Slumberland by Winsor McCay, nice large format, gorgeous artwork and blackface aside pretty inoffensive :P and if not that maybe Moomin by Tove Jansson
  2. Perhaps 'Bone,' it's light-hearted though it is a little long and fantasy adventure, maybe 'boy-ish', it's pretty accessible though. Also 'Laika' is the story of the first living thing sent into space, a lovable dog, it's sweet and melancholy, really beautiful to look at. Chris Ware's 'Jimmy Corrigan' is another beautiful object though definitely not light-hearted, it's basically melancholy but pretty accessible to non-comics readers. Aaaand... 'Kampung Boy' is an autobiographical account of growing up in the jungle of Malaysia, again a beautiful book, black and white, slice of life kind of stuff though it is part 1 of 2 and frankly part 2 isn't quite as interesting. Damn, comics for Mom is a hard request!
  3. I think the date is when it's on the shelf until, not 100% sure tho
  4. oh man I found this film so bland and muddled. it had the sort of social commentary element of district 9 + action Hollywood movie sequences of... any other action Hollywood film but it seemed kind of ... stupid? I dunno, I saw it at the cinema when it came out and remember enjoying it for the most part but by the end being completely bored and unimpressed. I think my main gripe if I can remember correctly was the TONE. it jumps around from being fun and action-y and lighthearted, with dumb over the top bad guys. but it's presented in such a boooring, serious, bland grainy manner that it never really feels fun. so its like a fun film through the filter of serious and boring. and its confusing and boring. gahhh. Yeah this one didn't sit that well with me either though I think it was an honest effort. I preferred District 9 because of it's comedy and it was a little more outlandish/bizarre. Elysium bordered on preachy and seemed like an oversimplification. The characters, designs, and edginess were all there but the story was too contrived.
  5. I don't know who it is but I know I like it.
  6. they said he has an album coming up
