Next time you’re struggling to make conversation, try asking this question: “If you could invite anyone (living or dead) to the perfect house party, who would it be?”
Graffiti6 is starting to make their North American invasion, and they are hitting up the Tonight Show. Does this sound familiar? Well the Beatles made the exact same journey over 40 years ago. Naturally, @jordans_life had to make some comparisons.
Nick plays World of Warcraft. Not only that, he’s the head of his guild, demonstrating that it IS possible to juggle being a hardcore gamer with being a top-selling recording artist.
During a LIVE interview on andPOP.com Nick Carter gave out a number and took phone calls from his fans. These were real phone calls from real fans who we gave exclusive access to one of the biggest recording artists of our generation.
There were great questions about music, fitness, the backstreet boys but the most popular question, however, was about his underwear. In this clip Nick talks about his his ‘Haynes’ and covering his fans with glow in the dark paint.
When releasing new music today, half the battle is online promotion. However, contests, signed merch and giveaways aren’t always the best solutions. When working on their latest album, Hedley came up with a brilliant idea, they decided to make trailers.
It’s hard to prepare for an interview with Hedley. So in this interview, we threw caution to the wind, got a 24 of beer and broadcast the interview live on our USTREAM (andPOP.tv). Eventually Jacob, Dave and @jordans_life ended up talking about hairy legs, their newest music video and more.
Diamandis from Marina and The Diamonds talks to us about her very serious disease. It’s called synaesthetic. And we lied, it’s not a disease. More like a cool condition. Diamandis explains further.
Would you be embarrassed if someone scrolled through your iPod? We sit down with Spee and Brendan to talk about the diverse music on their playlist.
On the one hand, I hate to let down my faithful readers, but this column will be published on Boxing Day, and that means that I have to write it on Christmas Eve, or Christmas Day.
I probably could have spun something together anyway ? a review of The Family Stone, or The Ringer, or something else that came out recently ? but I?ve been dragged to a farm in the middle of nowhere, and I?m sort of cut off from the movie theatres.
When we arrived, the house smelled like death, because a mouse had died a week ago, and nature had taken its course. Briefly, I considered doing column on the rotten movies of 2005, but there are just too many of them, and too little time.
So, instead, I?m going to briefly talk about a few movies that I would have liked to talk about in the last few months, but for one reason or another, I didn?t.
And if you?re not satisfied, then get off my back you ungrateful so-and-so, I should be sipping eggnog and kissing under the mistletoe, and instead I?m writing for you, so just be thankful for whatever I give you!
Okay, first up is Rent/The Producers, two top-notch musical adaptations that were released in the past couple of months. Rent is a heart-wrenching story about bohemians living in New York, struggling to make a living, find someone to love, and deal with the HIV/AIDS epidemic.
The Producers, on the other hand, is a comedy about two unscrupulous Broadway producers who try to make a fortune on an abominable musical called ?Springtime For Hitler? (complete with a chorus line of Nazi stormtroopers doing kicks in fishnet stockings.)
What these two have in common is that they?re both excellent adaptations of stage musicals for the big screen. And while I realize I?m usually pretty dismissive of adaptations, these two for whatever reason avoided all of the pitfalls, and were excellent. The best way to describe how this was achieved is by saying that the makers of both of these films didn?t find themselves drawn in by the so-called ?magic of film.? Each one was made in such a way that it was basically shot like a Broadway musical, except with the most kickass set any Broadway director could hope for.
Without spending a whole column talking about these two, I will say that they are both worth seeing, and if there hadn?t been other equally important things coming out at the same time, I would have written a whole column about each of them
Next up is Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire. I will confess right at the outset that I am writing about this movie without having seen it. J.K. Rowling (the author of the Harry Potter series) and I are on bad terms right now. I loved her work until I read the fifth book in the series, Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix; I hated that one so much that I swore myself off the Harry Potter series altogether.
I really can?t say anything about The Goblet of Fire. I?m simply mentioning it because I would have liked to see it, especially since several reviewers who I respect have said good things about it.
I really only point it out because on a list of movies I would have liked to talk about, but didn?t, it is definitely one I should mention.
Finally, I absolutely must mention Crash. When I first saw this movie, a few months ago, I was blown away. The movie is a bunch of disparate stories in Los Angeles, all somehow connected, and all dealing with the intricacies of racism.
Among others, the movie stars Brendan Frasier, Matt Dillon, Sandra Bullock and Don Cheadle. At the time, without seeing any of the other Oscar contenders, I called Cheadle to win best actor.
While this is seeming less likely, since Jake Gyllenhaal has starred in a whole slough of Oscar potentials, and a couple of other candidates have since made Cheadle less likely, but here?s my logic:
Cheadle should have won last year for his performance in Hotel Rwanda, but got passed over in favour of Jamie Foxx for Ray. Also, his performance in Crash is good enough to justify the win anyway.
I?m still laying my money on Cheadle, but Gyllenhaal may get it, I?ll probably be hedging my bets by the time the Oscars come around.
Anyway, that?s all for this week, come back next week for my look ahead to 2006.
