After the jump, I’ve got the trailer for the indie sci-fi flick Space Geography. But before I get to that, a little explanation of how I came upon it. In running this site, I get sent a lot of trailers for indie movies. I wish I could post all of them, but the truth is, on any given day I have about four times the amount of content that I can feasibly write about, and if I highlighted every indie film someone sent me, the site would quickly turn into a site just about indie films that people hadn’t heard of, and then people would probably stop coming to my site, and then our advertisers would drop out, and I wouldn’t make any money, and pretty soon I’d have to go get a real job, and trust me on this, you don’t want me trying to hold a regular job. I’ve done it before, and it’s just bad for society. I feel bad about not posting a lot of these, but I can’t respond to them all. Every once in a while, a person who’s sent me two or three emails without a response gets very angry about it, and I can’t say that I blame them. In fact, I kind of respect their honesty. The following is one such email.
