3D Films
This is not new technology. We’ve had “Honey, I Shrunk The Audience” for years, and it’s not even one of the better attractions at Disneyland. Beyond being a gimmicky marketing trend implemented solely so theaters and studios can charge more money per ticket- the quality is almost always awful and detracts from the film. And you have to sit there like an...

10) Beastie Boys – Hot Sauce Committee II
The Beastie Boys have always employed a fun, clever and distinctively catchy take on Rap and Hip-Hop. “Hot Sauce Committee II” sounds more like the groups boisterous early material rather than their more recent, artistically inclined instrumental album, “The Mix-Up.” And it’s in the funky, sarcastic and incendiary approach that the Beastie Boys shine. On...

10) Kelly Clarkson – Stronger
American Idol continues to be a celebration of mediocrity aimed at tired housewives and people more concerned with the popularity of something rather than the quality. Kelly Clarkson’s latest album “Stronger” suffers from the usual Pop music symptoms; banal lyrics, thick studio effects and a flashy demeanor intended to compensate for a lack of depth. The American...

The Three Laws of Cinema
1) 3D has shallowed film & should never be used to supplement depth.
2) Shaky-cam is as cheap & nauseating as fast food. Action does not mean the camera man should begin having a seizure.
3) Remakes, Reboots & Parody films should be viewed as cancer, with determining a cure a top priority.

Top Ten: Pound For Pound
01) Anderson Silva 31-4
Current UFC Middleweight Champion. The only time a fighter looked as if they had a chance was when that same fighter (Chael Sonnen) tested positive for steroids and Silva came into the fight with bruised / broken ribs. Trains with many of the pound for pound best in MMA at Black House.
02) Jon Jones 15-1
Current UFC Light Heavyweight Champion. Undefeated, minus the...

2011: A Good Year For Grind
iSore
Simply, the iPad is a much larger, more expensive iPhone that cannot make calls, designed and marketed to trendy, hipster imbeciles.
I find it truly amazing that anyone is willing to pay the prices these laughably ridiculous gadgets are going for (roughly $500.00+). The iPad is too large to be practical, too expensive to be just another fun, guilty pleasure type accessory and far too...

10) Norma Jean - Meridional
Norma Jean’s best release since “‘O’ God The Aftermath.” I had almost given up on this band, with the cringe worthy clean singing and southern rock influenced “Redeemer” and the tired and labored effort, “The Anti-Mother.” This isn’t the bands heaviest album, or their most accessible album. This isn’t even a return to form...

10) A Day To Remember - What Separates Me From You
A Day To Remember are still banging that trite and tired hardcore meets pop-punk drum. After hearing only the first song, I began to wish...
