Nostalgia is nice, imaginary memories are better: TIG recommends upcoming (or extremely recent) releases.

I’m not sure what triggers other people’s memories, but mine are strongly linked to my olfactory glands. And songs. What with all the damp green of November in Seattle, it’s been easy to get stuck in a rut of listening to the albums that I attached to this time last year. It’s all well and [...]

Three Imaginary Girls recommends chucking those rainy day blues!

The first of the wallet-emptying autumn holidays has come to a close, folks. No more costumes, teeth-rotting candy or drunk teens running rampant. However, there are plenty of worthy events to keep you entertained in the aftermath of Halloween madness. Shop handmade products and goods (perfect for the upcoming holiday gift-giving season), get your Monty [...]

Cheerio, lads and luves! We here at Three Imaginary Girls suggest you enjoy a hearty dish of fish and chips (beans optional), put your bracers on, hop in your lorry (but continue to drive on the correct side of the road for your own safety) and come out for what will be a bang [...]

Three Imaginary Girls is checking out horror & sci-fi at MIFFF this weekend

It’s no secret that I am a BIG fan of the horror. The gorier, the better. Funny, scary, gruesome, or just downright strange — I. Love. Splatter. Lucky for me, someone came up with the brilliant idea of gathering Indie films across a few genres that don’t usually get much love in bigger festivals (animation, [...]

Three Imaginary Girls are too cool for school

September is here and fall is in the air. As those of us who went to Bumbershoot nurse our inevitable colds, we are reminded that September means something else: back to school. Whether you are sending your progeny out to get uppity with their book learnin’, you’re lookin’ to get uppity with your own, or [...]

It’s Bumbershoot weekend, as you surely know. By managing TIG’s extensive coverage this year, it’s taken over a significant chunk of my life. Now, it’ll monopolize my Labor Day weekend. It’ll be a relief once it’s over, but I’m sure it’ll a fantastic thrill while it lasts.
I love Bumbershoot for countless reasons, but mostly it’s [...]

Three Imaginary Girls is getting ready for Bumbershoot

There was a time when I went to Bumbershoot RELIGIOUSLY, choosing to celebrate my birthday (which usually falls on Labor Day Weekend) with a weekend-long immersion of Bumbershootin’ goodness. I’m sad to say that in recent years, this hasn’t been in the case, either due to lack of funds or lack of patience (aren’t you [...]
