Movies, Music, and Books (oh my)!

Pineapple Express is another one from the Apatow/Rogen crew, and it’s my favorite yet. Gone are the romantic undertones of their other movies, but they kept up the humor. Bravo!
Batman needn’t be mentioned here but I’ll do it anyway. It’s easily the best comic movie to date, and one of the better movies overall in recent history. You’re doing the movie a disservice if you don’t see it in IMAX, and yourself a disservice if you don’t see it at all. It’s a masterpiece.
Step Brothers was meh. Watch it if you like Will Farrell or his crazy persona movies. I like ‘em enough so I got a kick out of it, but it’s really, really dumb. Rent it and turn off your brain.
Presidents of the United States of America put out a new CD a few months ago. I was listening to Pandora and I heard a song I didn’t recognize from them. So’s I opened up their webpage and saw their new CD on the front page. Kick ass! I picked it up and it’s very awesome. Highly recommended.
The Police rank up there in my top ten favorite bands. When I heard they were coming to the DTE, and I heard that my folks got us a set of tickets, I was ecstatic. They played an awesome set, and came back for two encores for a total of 2.5 hours. I’m sad they didn’t play Canary In A Coal Mine, but I can’t have everything. Elvis Costello was the opening act - he was pretty darn good too.
Books are still for suckers and I still avoid them like the plague (mostly ’cause I can’t read) but I needed another form of media so I could make that played out Wizard of Oz reference.
Want to see a magic trick?
