Ta-da!

Our latest and last issue as a PDF. This marks a new beginning for us, and marks the actual 2-month countdown for the opening of yam-mag.com, which actually is kinda nerve-racking. As we work on the actual website now, you can Follow us on Twitter, and/or join us on Facebook.
In this issue, McNeil from The Dark of the Matinee gives us a look at what was the Toronto Film Festival this year, and gives his thoughts on Let Me In (out in theaters in America), Black Swan (out in December in America), and Norwegian Wood (out in December in Japan).
We’ve also got a review for Jack Goes Boating from our new writer Dr. T, as well as a review for the manga series Uzumaki courtesy of Camiele White. On the music side of business, Luis is reviewing Brandon Flowers, Acid Android, Klaxons, Linkin Park and Maroon 5.
Welcome, you guys to the YAM team.
We’ve also got reviews for 2ne1, Robyn, Kangta, Isaac Delgado, Weeds, The Big C, Atami no Sousakan and more! If you’ve forgotten about our Yu Aoi Uso. Pop-up Book Giveaway, details are inside!

I liked last year’s ceremony format better.
Must be ‘coz I didn’t have dinner before shooting.



Anyway, here is the batch of photos of the night.
I also created a Lima Film Festival collection. ;P

Well, I’m 37min. past my deadline. Sorry about that.

We’ve got our very first exclusive! I got a chance to chat with Grammy/Golden Globe/Academy Award winner/nominee Diane Warren. And besides the fact that I forgot how to talk and think in English, it went pretty well.
We are also covering a bit on the Lima Film Festival, which just wrapped up their 14th edition. Plus reviews for some of the very best of the blockbuster season in America… and a surprise review for Aftershocks, the very first IMAX release made in China.
In the music section we are reviewing our usual Asian suspects, including Taeyang with his solo debut, the boys from SHINee, Bibi Zhou (pictured multiple times on the cover), Jing Chang, The Derek Trucks Band, Macy Gray, and more! Plus, reviews for Bad Guy, Time of Eve, and Yu Aoi’s Uso. pop-up book – which we have ONE COPY to give away.
Details on the giveaway, inside the issue. ;P
Don’t forget to join our Facebook group, so YAM can bug you and send you music and stuff.

This is my attempt at some Classic Cannes photos, only without the Cannes part. xD
The Lima Film Fest opened tonight, at a freezing night for reporters. I saw people shivering, but we had to wait outside for people to go in before us…


Check out the whole set here.
