« on: October 24, 2004, 08:02:07 pm »

Ok, who else here thinks this song is hot?

DON'T VOTE UNLESS YOU"VE HEARD THE SONG!

I LOVE the beat and everything about the song!  It's got tight lyrics, and of course P.Diddy makes his appearance on the track.  So good.

Other Musicians / The Pussy Cat Dolls

Ok, we all know they can dance.  Right?  Well, I think they do a great job singing...Or is it lip synching?.....Don't know yet, but it sounds awesome.  

They have 2 songs out right now.  One of them is on the "Shark Tale" soundtrack.  The other is on the "Shall We Dance" soundtrack.  I must have listened to "Sway" (<---Song from "Shall We Dance") about 10 times already.  One of the voices sounds like Christina, which is pretty amazing.  So check out their music video for "Sway."  I think you can see it at guide.real.com (realplayer web site).

This one's got Tom Cruise and Tim Robbins (He's soooo awesome!)
That cute lil Dakota Fanning (Man on Fire) is in it.

It's based on H.G. Wells' martian invasion book.  Steven Spielberg's directing it.  Should be a huge blockbuster hit.

Entertainment - Movies / TV / Books / Master Of Space and Time

« on: September 28, 2004, 02:56:13 pm »

I LOVE Jack Black.  He's is such a great actor.  So I thought I'd continue the trend of Jack Black movies and include this one.  It hasn't started filming yet since JB is busy with King Kong.  But it sounds really cool.  They set it up back in May originally.  And JB is in as the star.  It's based on a book that's from 1984!  Here's the description...It's a freakin Sci-Fi thriller!! How chill is that??  JB is gonna be awesome!!

Master of Space and Time
 In this sci-fi thriller, two scientists develop a device that transports them to other dimensions. They travel to a parallel universe where the planet is oppressed by parasite brains. They overthrow the parasites and their leader, but transport one of them back to Earth.



Michel Gondry is gonna direct it too! (He did Eternal Sunshine!! Wooo so exciting!!)

Entertainment - Movies / TV / Books / Speaking of Peter Jackson...KING KONG

« on: September 25, 2004, 11:48:04 am »

Ok so I did a search for all things King Kong on these forums, and alas, there was nothing.  For all of you Peter Jackson fans, you'll be happy to hear that filming began in September in New Zealand.  That's very impressive considering they didn't start the script until March of 2004.  
 
So far, what they are doing over there looks amazing and it's hilarious!  Jack Black and Adrien Brody are obviously having a good time with it.  And the poo video is great (Day 14  f production)   The cast is great too.
