New Shit This Week

DVDs:

Buy It:

None This Week


Rent It:

The Invasion - I couldn't tell you if the movie was any good, but audiences avoided it like the plague as it was one of the few blockbuster releases last summer that didn't make money.

Trade / The King Of California / Bordertown - Three indie movies that I don't know anything about, but they all look like they might be good.

The Comebacks - A spoof of sports movies. Not as good as Airplane, but much better than any of the Scary, Epic or Date Movies.


Skip It:

Daddy Day Camp - A completely unnecessary sequel to a lousy movie that was a hit for reasons beyond me. Oh and this one stars Cuba Gooding Jr. as well. Cuba, the Academy called. You need to give back your Oscar immediately.


CDs:

Buy It:

The Mars Volta - The Bedlam In Goliath - Their last album was a disappointment, but I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt this time around because previous albums were so damn good.

Vampire Weekend - Vampire Weekend - The bloggers nailed it once again with this band, which has a unique and exciting new sound.


Borrow It:

Louis XIV - Slick Dogs And Ponies - They are an acquired taste to be sure, but if you like their first album, you'll like this one as well.
