A new Harry Potter trailer was released today for The Deathly Hallows parts one and two. Part one will be released in theaters this November, the second will be out next year. Both movies will be shown in the ever popular 3D.
Take a look and tell me what you think:
My only question is who is that dude who stops the train? That is not in the book. Either its some death eater or maybe its the new Minister of Magic Rufus Scrimgeor? Idk.
Anyway, the other scenes look good and very book acurate ^_^ Especially the clip with Harry walking up to Voldemort O.O
To see the trailer on the big screen be sure to see Eclipse on the 30th as it will be shown before the movie.
Will sports journalists please leave the US team alone? We lost, it sucks. Get over it. We don't have to blame coach Bob Bradley or kick the team when they're down saying they weren't good enough. There is always Brazil in 2014 ^_^
Ghana was the better team today and that is okay because the US team never gave up. They fought it out and didn't make it too easy. They conceded early in the fifth minute (which has been somewhat of a curse I'm afraid) but it's not like they lost 4-0 or anything so dramatic. We lost 2-1 and held on playing for a full 90 minute game plus an extra half hour! That's 2 hours of running around on a massive field. I'd like to see someone who doesn't train for that try to keep their energy for 2 hours.
Sure, the US team wasn't as aggressive as they should have been but that doesn't make them talentless. That makes for a bad day. There were a few good sparks of brilliance throughout all the matches that displayed some major power and spirit amoung the team.
My only critique on the lineup is not using Edson Buddle today or much at all. Don't discount all the hard work leading up to the moment. Landon Donovan is freakin' hero for his 91st minute score against Algeria, and Clint Dempsey is rock star! Goal keeper Tim Howard got kicked in the ribs in the game against England and he kept playing. Not to mention the performances by Micheal Bradley, Maurice Edu, and Oguchi Onyewu were just as amazing and they played as a team.
They played of heart and thats all you can ask of your nations best players. I personally couldn't be prouder of the efforts of by the team. And Jozy Alitore will have his day! Mark my words, he was amazing and almost scored multiple times. Just because nothing happends it doesn't mean you shouldn't try.
Ahh, so in case you seriously don't watch MTV or you just dont care. Both Rihanna and Lady Gaga have new vids out and these ladies rule the video charts. I can't go anywhere without seeing either one of them and frankly their faces are starting to bug me.
I kid.
first on the chopping block we have Lady Gaga's mini opus, homage, basic rip-off, way too long, monochromatic much....video for "Alejandro." The song, an ABBA tinged dance medley from the "Fame Monster" finally gets a video and is it everything little monsters we're waiting for.
Nah.
As much as I can go gaga for gaga, this video is boring. The colors are harsh and what's with all the catholic church sexualization? *Yawn* Over it. Madonna already did it Gaga, and yeah cone-bra we see you. Can we get some glitter and soon? Why? It's mad sparkly. I'm sorry this video just does not do it for me and it might be a tattle tale sign that Gaga needs to recharge because nothing about this video echoes her earlier videos that gave you this feeling of "OOH LEMME SEE!"
Onto Rihanna, by the way, this video came out long before "Alejandro." That's for anyone who wants to say that she's copying. Already this song from the "Rated R" album is about a lesbian tryst (everyone is kissing each other these days hmmm..) the video is *nice* but so much can be done you know? I'm really getting tired of all the pop starlets running around doing things to "shock" the public. We. Are. Shocked.
In contrast to Gaga's video we have lots of colors here which is nice, but, yeah it's all very same same-y. Maybe as viewers we're becoming jaded.
Toni Braxton has been around for some time people, remember "Un-break my heart," well she's back with a new album (Pulse) and a return to her short 'do. I stumbled on this video from another blog and instantly I was hooked. A house sound from the '90s, ABDC crew Fanny Pack...really? Church ladies getting down? This is way too good. The song is really exciting, as the video and I'm glad SOMEONE is taking a break from all this futuristic stuff that seems to be the rage. Only minus in this vid, what is going on with Toni's clothes?? no, just no. Also, this video is progressive (dare I say it) everyone is getting a shot out and it's done in a way that's not pandering or reminding you "hey we're diverse!" (see: Glee). Great song, great video. Two enthusiastic thumbs way up.
There are no words to describe the 2010 Ladies of the 80's Collector Barbies besides: OMG, I die!!!!! Yeah that's right, our favorite 80's stars Cyndi Lauper, Debbie Harry, and my favorite rocker chick Joan 'freakin' Jett have been immortalized in plastic. This is the coolest collectors series since the Batman lady villains a few years back. I want them all like right now. Don't believe me about how cool they are, check this out: The only thing that would make this better is if they had the quintessential 80's Lady, the material girl herself, Madonna. That and change the pink high tops on Joan Jett (I'm a fan of pink high tops, but I've never once seen her in pink ever). Besides that, everything is perfectly awesome.
I know a certain rocker who is going to be sitting next to my Poison Ivy doll very soon.
Okay, so last nights season finale of Glee threw me for a loop. It was twisty, turny and just plain good. Who would have thought that the other judges weren't going to like our friends in New Directions. And Sue's change of heart was very endearing to her character. I really like that it wasn't easy to guess the ending. Even more exciting was Rachel and Finn's relationship taking a powerful and yet subtle turn. It seems that they are both finally ready to have a real relationship.
Quinn had her baby during Vocal Adrenaline's performance of the extremely long, extremely awesome "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen, which is more than enough time to deliver a baby.
Still there were some things that were evident, like the coach of Vocal Adrenaline adopting Quinn's baby. It was just too obvious and kinda sad. Shelby makes me mad. She spent all that time trying to get Rachel to know the truth only to reject the idea of being there for her as a mother just to turn around and adopt a baby. Tre lame!
But best of all is that the glee club gets another year! Who knows where it will lead for next season. New freshmen characters? A new antagonist worse than Sue Sylvester? More possible pairings of characters? And where is the love interest I heard rumored for Kurt? I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Okay, with the season finale of Glee on tonight I thought I'd put a sneak peak up:
Look's like something is going on between Finn and Rachel yet again. The sh0w has been massively popular since debuting on Fox last year doing show choir covers of some of the best song pop songs out now as well as older favorites along the way. But will Rachel get over the heartache left by her mom Shelby, Vocal Adrenaline's coach, and her ex boyfriend Jesse, leading star of Vocal Adrenaline? Will the Glee kids win Regionals and save Glee from the ever plotting Cheerio coach Sue Sylvester? Yeah, probably. I mean it is their show after all and if they lost the club then there wouldn't be a show. As for Rachel, I'm sure Finn will have something to do with that.
So in case you missed it...Christina "Xtina" Aguilera performed on the 2010 MTV Movie Awards and she performed a medley of her new album bionic.
Ladies and Gents, you did see a glowing heart on that outfit. Yes, a glowing heart and "whoohoo."
I have to say I was not impressed by this performance at all. I mean it's probably the most fun performance she's done in a while, but seriously the lyrics to "Whoohoo," leave more to be imagined. I don't want to sound like a hater because I like Xtina but this is just too much...and it seems so...I don't know what to call it.
Which is how I feel about her latest album. I wanted to really like it, it's good but it's also very annoying.
Aguilera's fourth album, the aptly titled "bionic" has been a long one in the making but then again, all Christina Aguilera albums take a while to get out. On top of that, when she does return to the music scene she offers fans a lot of new material.
The media has been hyping up Aguilera's return since it was leaked that she would be working with Santigold, Le Tigre, Ladytron and Sia. In other words "Bionic" is a big deal.
Fast forward, internet leaks, lady gaga comparisons and the aforementioned awards performance and it brings us to "Bionic."
What can you say about an 18 track album other than it's self-indulgent? But then again, Christina Aguilera is self-indulgent. On "Bionic" she dips into the ever-trendy electropop and the results are some of the better songs she's done in a while but the problem is they lack emotion.
What I've come to love about Aguilera is not just her amazing vocal range but the emotional appeal she brings to her music. Other than the ballads that are mistakenly clumped together, "Bionic" offers rare glimpses into Aguilera as a person. Sure, she sings about sex (WhooHoo, Sex for Breakfast)and how amazing she is (Prima Donna, Glam, Vanity) but where is the Christina Aguilera in all of this? In the insipid "Elastic Love," (produced by MIA) it's all too obvious that under the weight of robotic synths that Aguilera loses herself in the music. The lead single "Not Myself Tonight," is perhaps the weakest track on the entire album the entire thing is misguided. We know you're a dirrty girl Xtina, but its time to show us something else. Most puzzling track "I Hate Boys." Oh really? Is that how it is? ....but wait..she's married!
*facepalm
Although "Bionic" is a thrill ride, only suffering from the missteps of too much of the same formula it would be nice if the real Christina Aguilera popped in.
It's the first day of June, and it's also Marilyn Monroe's birthday. Yahoo! News is reporting that a confidential image of M.Monroe has been released (I thought that confidential meant TOP SECRET) Confidential Stuff Ra Ra Ra A A
