I’ve seen other bloggers commit to watching 365 new-to-them movies in 2012, but I probably wouldn’t be able to find the time to do that, so I’m going to combine films, albums, and books that are new-to-me and set the number at 300. Let’s see how close I get.
300 New-to-Me Films/Albums/Books in 2012 : 001/300
Sucker Punch (2011) : ★★☆☆☆Sucker Punch wasn’t as hot of a mess as the internet made it seem like it was when it was released last year, but that doesn’t mean that people were wrong in saying that it was a bad movie. It suffers from poor directing and a jumbled story-line and plot. It’s a visual achievement, but that only gets the film so far. It’s ambitious, but ultimately disappointing. Nothing more, nothing less. However, since the top nine grossing movies of 2011 were sequels or adaptations of established franchises, Zack Snyder gets a few bonus points for at least trying to come up with something original.
And hey, Jamie Chung in lingerie. I can’t be too upset.
You should try watching your first good movie while you’re at it.
This is my fucking song.
Seen this performed live on several occasions, but nothing can compare to even a low quality youtube version of Pavarotti singing it. No man ever had a voice as great as his, let alone the passion he had for his work. Please, put down your Justin Bieber and Nicholas Minaj and just listen to beauty musically personified. Thank you, world.
Fuck yes.
Political Ad of the Day: Rick Perry knows there’s something wrong in this country “when gays can serve openly in the military but our kids can’t openly celebrate Christmas or pray in school.”
I know there’s something wrong in this country when small-minded, intolerant, homophobic fear-mongers like Rick Perry can be considered viable presidential candidates, but gays can’t get married.

Shouldn’t someone point out the fact that kids can pray in school…
HOLY FUCK

No really
