"Revenge of the Electric Car" friends, this week we learned some exciting news: the film's trailer is currently among the top 10 most popular movies on the iTunes Movie Trailers site! This tremendous accomplishment would not have been possible without support from our wonderful fans. We can't thank you enough for your efforts, whether it's simply watching the film's trailer, demanding the film in a city near you or coming out to a preview screening.
Then this weekend we got even more good news- "Revenge of the Electric Car" was chosen as a winner for the 21st annual Environmental Media Awards! On Saturday at the Warner Brothers Studios in Burbank, CA, my producer P.G. Morgan and I accepted the award in the documentary category. We were up against some great documentary films for the advocacy of environmental issues and we're truly honored to be chosen this year.
This success is just the beginning. It's time to make "Revenge of the Electric Car" a success where it matters the most – at the box office. The film opens at theaters in New York and Los Angeles on Friday, October 21st, with many more theaters coming this October and November. Come out to see it on opening weekend in New York and L.A., and check our screenings page to find out when it's coming to a city near you.
Thank you again!

growing. I will attend your new movie "Revenge" as soon as it comes nearby, I may have to drive to Miami if it is shows there soon.
gasoline will drive an electric car as far as an average car will go BURNING that gasoline. So, we will not, as some people fear, overload our grid or increase coal use/pollution by going electric. We'll just shift the load of electricity being used to refine
gasoline to running electric cars. The big benefit, of course is that we'll then avoid all the other costs associated with using oil: foreign wars, land ruination from extraction, transportation, and finally all the pollution from combusting gasoline.
