Kris Kristofferson Offers Authenticity Amidst Artifice in Christmas in Connecticut by bilbopooh Pros: Kristofferson, Arnott, gorgeous scenery, sweet movie
Cons: very slapsticky at times When I think of Arnold Schwarzenegger, my first thought is Terminator, quickly followed by several other adrenaline-soaked action flicks. Then, of course, I remember that he is the governor of California, a position that certainly caught me by ...

Good Omens. (It’s Ineffable.) by ssjakira1 Pros: A good deal of fun
Cons: Nothin' really (it can ramble a bit, but meh). I wasn't going to let my distaste of American Gods spoil me on Neil Gaiman. After all, there's more out there by Gaiman that I figured I'd ...

Cult Movies ; Midnight Movies The Original Cult MOVIE sensations by ChrisJarmick Pros: Fast moving basic primer on Midnight movies with good clips.
Cons: Too short and a few important cult films overlooked. Midnight Movies is the name of this DVD devoted to sharing some of the most popular Midnight Movies of all time. I enjoy writing about the things I watch particularly the under the radar, strange quirky oddball films that cross my ...

The Plucker and the Coolest Jack in the Box Ever by ssjakira1 Pros: Dark, unique story, amazing illustrations
Cons: None This is the kind of stuff I'd see while at work. A large hardback book nestled among all those little mass market paperbacks and with very intriguing illustrations on the cover and on the inside. It took me a while to get my hands on it, but ...

~~ SEX IT UP THIS HOLIDAY WITH A SEXY CHRISTMAS ~~ by kbolton72 Pros: Great voices, musings, and love
Cons: How much love can you really take, after all??? When you hear the word "Sex", the last thing that comes to your mind is "Christmas"! That is, unless, you get this cd! Hey, why not? You have the cozy fire, the smell of cinnamon and fresh pine, and you need the extra body heat, 'cause it's cold ...

~~ RATTLE, RING AND ROARING WITH SOUND EFFECTS CD ~~ by kbolton72 Pros: Fun, creative sounds that will add hours of fun to your sound effect library
Cons: Annoying, many repetitives, not very long per effect Wouldn't it be great to go back to the days when you were a kid, running around wild, making all sorts of crazy sounds with your super-loud toys, vroom vroom, vrooming??? Well, now you can be as obnoxious as you'd like with SOUND EFFECTS LIBRARY ...

Life isn't always Sweetness and Flowers by terrid Pros: Strong characters, great interaction, real life situations
Cons: none India operated tattoo pallor. She didn't look like your typical rural western woman with tattoos and piercings. Still she is a big hearted woman who wants to be part of the town where she lives. She does have friends in the community and her sister and ...

What's nice about staying on the same pace? by GregRadiohead Pros: A fantastic companion piece/victory lap after the Merriweather album
Cons: None It's surreal to think that it's already been nearly a near since Animal Collective released Merriweather Post Pavilion. I could just be thinking like a solipsist here, but 2009 has flown by, hasn't it? Nowhere has this felt more evident than in ...

Christmas Duets: Elvis' Christmas Music Lives On by befus Pros: Clever concept; excellent performers; some creative arrangements
Cons: No "Santa Bring My Baby Back to Me" It's been almost twenty years since my husband introduced me to the Christmas music of Elvis Presley. He grew up with the 1957 recording Elvis' Christmas Album. He used to listen to it on vinyl, but copied it onto a cassette tape which, believe it ...

Despite My Love Of Sophie B. Hawkins, The “California Here I Come” Single Flops! by wlswarts Pros: Two wonderful songs.
Cons: Nothing original, Short, Poor use of the medium. Those who know me well know that one of my favorite musical artists of all time is Sophie B. Hawkins, a pop-rock singer who has been more widely considered a “one hit wonder” (despite the fact that she has had two Top Ten hits in the United States). I ...

The Revisionist Superhero Done Right. by truckturner Pros: Style, characters, fascinating story, action, FX, visuals, music
Cons: Wilson, Akerman, Love triangle, poor makeup, weak villain Despite a visual design that suggests 40s noir mixed with 50s glamour, the story is an alternate take on the 1980s in which President Richard Nixon (a pretty unconvincing Robert Wisden) is still in office in 1985, having won the Vietnam War (no, not ...

The Jacksons 1976 by milyjohnson Pros: more control over music; great songs for era; great singing
Cons: very little The Jackson 5 left Motown in the 1970s and they signed with Epic Records. They changed their name to The Jacksons for legal purposes. Motown still owned the rights to the name Jackson 5. The Jacksons released this self-titled cd in ...

Margaret Wise Brown and Anne Mortimer Tickle the Senses in A Pussycat's Christmas by bilbopooh Pros: poetic language, wonderful illustrations, great for cat lovers
Cons: Santa's appearance seems out of place I have two cats, and I have had several others over the years, so I know first-hand the sort of excitement that Christmas can inspire in felines. I’ve often experienced their fondness for batting at ornaments with their paws, and on one occasion, ...

Throw Away The Negativity, Girl! by glvrican Pros: Raspy Yet New Soulful Voice, Mostly Successful In All Parts
Cons: "Call You Tonight," Some Minor Problems But Eh. Whitney Houston's comeback had a long time coming. It's hard not to look at the album's extremely photoshopped cover and think of all the drugs Whitney used to do, especially when witnessing the upscale, and highly publisized, divorce between her ex ...

The Fame (Monster) by Lady GaGa: I'm Naming My Next Child Alejandro Fernando Roberto by jetbluefan1 Pros: All eight tracks are catchy, well written, and crafted carefully with attention to detail
Cons: None Lady GaGa has really made quite a splash over the last 14 months that she has been released onto the airwaves. Her first hit single, Just Dance, was an instant success and hit the top of the charts ever-so-quickly. GaGa, who attended NYU and has been ...

SantaKid Is Determined to Keep Christmas Instead of Exmas by bilbopooh Pros: nice illustrations, kid power, anti-commercial slant
Cons: the old Christmas-will-be-ruined-without-Santa's-flight schtick In the vast majority of stories involving Santa Claus, the jolly old man with a red suit and white beard does not have any children. Every once in a while, however, a writer decides to change it up. Such is the case with James Patterson’s ...

A short space odyssey from East Germany that is surprisingly good by paulsavage Pros: Acting, visual effects, main plotline is strong

Heaven and Earth are Filled with Absurdities by msiduri Pros: Lots of philosophical and obscure historical material. Honest writing from the author.
Cons: Book needs an index and perhaps a short glossary. Can be a bit heavy-handed. In Nuns on the Run, a supremely silly movie, two characters played by Eric Idle and Robbie Coltrane are hiding out in a convent, trying to pass themselves off as nuns after having stolen some money from the mob. (Guess the good sisters don't ...
