Movies and TV

Violent City - Someone at the Madison Public Library loves Charles Bronson. They add a new movie of his every month. Anyway, it's Italian and the Italians don't do anything wrong except when choosing sides in a World War.

Disco Godfather - I mean, it's called Disco Godfather! I've been really interested in blaxploitation since finally seeing Coffy recently and finding out that it is awesome.



The Brothers Bloom - From the guy who did Brick, the best movie of whatever year that was.

Night of The Living Dead - The eight millionth copy of NotLD the library has gotten, this is called the "40th Anniversary Edition". I find it funny that someone else released a DVD under the same name but bragged it was a "2 disc Collectors Edition" but the reviews on Amazon say they just divided the movie over two discs. Of course, who would think that a quality copy of the movie would have a cover like this:



There's a lot of terrible design when it comes to DVD covers but come on.

Funny People - I was trepidatious when I heard the new Judd Apatow movie starred Adam Sandler. And even more so since it got mixed reviews but I have to try. Hey, wouldn't be funny if someone was looking for this movie and accidentally got Funny Games?



Harvard Beats Yale 29-29 - Documentaries about people who are passionate about stupid things are some of my favorites. Anyone see the crossword puzzle documentary?

Music

Feels by Animal Collective - Worst future best of the year album ever.

Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix by Phoenix - Best future overrated album of the year.

That's confusing.

Post-nothing by Japandroids

Popular Songs by Yo La Tengo - Have you ever liked an album and thought, "yet another great record by these people" and therefore been underwhelmed?

Abbey Road by Beatles - This is the only re-mastered Beatles the library got. I want to hear how much better it sounds but I'd prefer the White Album.
