    Trailers

    Here are a couple trailers worth seeing (via pop candy):

    • New Iron Man 2 trailer.
    • New Alice in Wonderland.
    • Hot Tub Time Machine?  A movie with John Cusack on a ski mountain better have some “Better Off Dead” references.

    *UPDATE – HERE’S SOME MORE!*

    • The Runaways Trailer. Hopefully, Kristen Davis as Joan Jett can look like she’s actually playing the guitar; unlike Rachel Leigh Cook in Josie and the Pussycats.
    • The White Stripe’s Under Great White Northern Lights trailer.

    Cherry Christmas, Everyone

    cherrychristmas

    Most of you have probably heard this already, but Neil Diamond has a holiday album with a cover of Adam Sandler’s Hanukkah Song.  Besides the general strangeness of covering the song, it is very bizarre that he feels the need to change “tom cruise isn’t, but I think his agent is” to “…but Jesus Christ is.”  Also bizarre that he felt the needed to say “don’t smoke your marijuanica.”  But if that wasn’t enough, he does a song called “Cherry, Cherry Christmas” where he takes the names of all his popular songs and inserts them into a new song about the holidays.  You can check them out at the hype machine or his myspace.

    But there’s more!

    • Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings just released a new 45, called “Ain’t No Chimneys in the Projects.”  And in the spirit of the season, are giving away the mp3 of it for free through their website.
    • One of my favorite blogs, Soul-Sides, is giving away a mixtape of Aretha Franklin songs.
    • While not a holiday song, it would be a great gift for me: White Stripes Live dvd “Under the Great White Northern Lights.”  You can now see the full version of “Let’s Shake Hands” on their myspace.
    • This might be a stretch, but Christmas just came early for a couple bands.  They just released all the inductees for this the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year.   For once, I am happy with all of the picks: ABBA, the Hollies, Genesis, Jimmy Cliff, and The Stooges.

    I know I can’t compete with the Dank House, but…

    If anyone doesn’t have plans for New Years, I will be dj-ing at Vaughan’s Pub. Tickets are $45 per person, it includes a premium open bar, appetizer buffet, party favors and a champagne toast. You can buy the tickets online and they have discounts for groups of ten or more. So who’s in?
    If you can’t already tell by the poster, its gonna be a good time.

    Best of the Year

    stinkcpStereogum does a user voted year-end-wrap-up that resembles the MTV Movie Awards with categories like “Indie Rock Crush.”  One category, “Best Web Videos,” is actually worthwhile.  Check out how out of touch you are just in the last year (or maybe how ‘with it’ you are).  If you haven’t seen the Cleveland Tourism video, I recommend you do.  Also, I thought the SNL sketch about the Underground Festival was pretty funny without knowing that it was a parody of this video.

    If those don’t strike yer fancy, then how about something from Barbara Walter’s year end “Fascinating People” list? Except for the bizarre question about her sexuality, this video of Babwa Wawa and Rady Gaga is not that interesting of an interview. Although it is worth it to hear Barbara say “Bluffin with my muffin.” Via MOKB.

    Just in time for finals…

    Ten days to go until my last final, the 18th. Perfect time to find ways to procrastinate on the interweb. December on Hot Chicks with Douchebags means its time for yearly awards, the Douchies. Some are clever, like “Best Golden Globes,” and others are kind of a stretch, like “Most Deserving of a Trashcan to the Head.” Nonetheless, I’m hooked. Past awards in 2007 and 2008. And as if Hulu didn’t distract me enough with So I Married an Axe Murderer, they definitely made it worse by putting 3 seasons of MST3K on the website. I think the Travers family has Christmas season cut out for us. But blogging makes me tired, and hungry. Time to order some Fat Sandwich. Fat Milf with pizza bites. Mmmmm.
