Some people call Tim Burton predictable. They're tired of seeing the same actors, same style, etc. But to all of the people who stand by this, I say, "Enough!" Please refrain from criticizing a man who has found a killer combination.
We all have guilty pleasures. Anyone who browsed my Top 25 Most Played playlist on iTunes would have discovered, to my dismay, that David Archuleta's "Crush" was among its numbers.
I remember the day that I thought I had just gotten my last CD. Pleading with my mother, I assured her that this CD was the pinnacle, the cherry on top of my already genius music collection.
While I would much rather come out of a movie theater either singing praises or unabashedly complaining, The Time Traveler's Wife, which came out Aug.
Everyone has skeletons in their musical closet. It?s a fact. We?ve got the bands we?re proud to listen to whose posters decorate our walls, whose T-shirts we own and whose concert tickets we?ll line up to buy (Jay-Z and TI anyone?). Then there are the groups we attempt to hide from people as they browse through our music library on iTunes.
I?m not sure if watching a movie centered on middle-aged people with borderline-depressing lives is my idea of an enjoyable weekend matinee.
I?ve been staring at the screen for about 20 minutes trying to figure out how best to express what I think of Terrence Howard?s new album, Shine Through It.
I was driving really late one clear summer night in my pimpin' minivan listening to The Black Keys' "Act Nice & Gentle." It was my favorite song of theirs at the time and, incidentally, the only song I really knew.
Movies like Titanic and Life is Beautiful make us realize just how terrible certain events in history were.
Whenever I attempt to clean out my iTunes music library, I'm never that successful. I only manage to get rid of the songs I truly hate, while the ones I simply never listen to manage to hold on for a few more weeks until the next time I decide to cleanse my musical chi.
