Movie: Source Code

By the same guy who made Moon, which was the best movie of the past 5 years, easily. This one is also good. Solid science fiction! Recommend double plus!

Life Fantastic- Man Man

  Thats the title of their fourth studio album which I am eagerly awaiting to come out. This time around the band has brought in a producer by the name of Mike Mogis which has seemed to pay off in spades for the band. They seem more focused but still retain their wacky ideas, just more elegant. Recommend: yes, the fu manchu is there just with a trim and elegance.

Movie: Valhalla Rising

this movie was really weird. it had a good bit of bloody violence, lots of confusion, and a completely mute main character whose purpose and history are never explained. the characters, a bunch of vikings, get on a boat and get lost in the fog, and wind up somewhere in canada, i guess, where basically they all die. there's some impressionistic artsy editing, and red-tinged flash-forwards, and the music is all ominous and noisy.

i liked it! recommend!

Music: Man Man

MusicSix Demon Bag album. since the good Mr. Allen dropped this band into my lap i was bitten. the best way i can think of their sound is a well put together lunacy, doo whopish madness, and jazzy as hell.

Recommendations- if you love music that will induce happiness, rump shaking, and spontaneous instrument pick up then give them a listen. Also i got their other albums as well and highly recommend too.

TV Show: Life On Mars

NOTE: This review is for the BBC show; there was an American version, which flopped after 1 season and is supposed to be fookin' terrible.

Quotes from show:
"You have amnesia, Sam."
"I'm in a coma, Frank."

Recommend?
Yes, I do! Unless I'm in a coma, in which case, my future sensibilities my not recommend this. Unless I'm not in a coma, and it really is 1973...in which case, maybe I recommend it. Unless I have amnesia. But what if I'm a time traveler?
