My week in Movies: The Help,...
Good week for me, managed to fit in 2 good ones, and the Oscars are today! I still need to see The Artist, Moneyball, Tree of Life, and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, but even so, I always look forward to Oscar night.
Anyway, here’s what I watched this week-
The Help (2011, Tate Taylor)
A bit sentimental and too long, but still a very entertaining and occasionally poignant film...

Why "Midnight in Paris" should win best picture →
I’m sure it won’t win, but it’s still my favorite of the nominees I’ve seen so far! The same guys did a cool article on The Descendants also.

even more ways to know you're a nerd...
When you’re legitimately upset that Grad School visits will prevent you from seeing-
1. Community’s new episode on 3/15
2. The midnight premiere of The Hunger Games Movie

this guy gets it
j-shot:
Why can’t I just have Community AND Parks and Rec AND 30 Rock at the same time?!
my thoughts exactly…is it so wrong to ask for the 3 best shows on TV right now to be on the same night? :-/
Still psyched Community is coming back, but my Thursday will still feel incomplete

Movie Review: The Descendants

Summary: Although the subject matter sounds like something out of a “Lifetime Original Movie”, the understated direction and some great performance help make The Descendants an entertaining and emotional family drama.

So teens on twitter don't know who Paul McCartney...
I say we round them all up, lock them in a room without their smartphones/laptops, and blast all The Beatles studio albums on repeat until they get to that point where they’ll never want to listen to Katy Perry and Bruno Mars again. Sound good?
For the record, my younger brother and I saw him in concert this past summer, and it was pretty much the most awesome night of our lives. Anyone...

Anyways, this week, I finally got a bit more movie time, and watched Office Space on netflix and rented Midnight in Paris.
Office Space (1999, Mike Judge)
This past summer, me and my younger brother saw the movie Horrible...

New video: The Shins - “September”
B-side of “Simple Song” 7”
I was really hoping to be the first to post this, but oh well. I’m still excited. This one sounds much more like something off of Chutes too Narrow than “Simple Song” did. Either way, I’m loving it! Mercer said in Rolling Stone recently that it’s about his wife, and appropriately, it...

Sugar should be controlled like alcohol and tobacco to protect public health, according to a team of UCSF researchers, who maintain in a new report that sugar is fueling a global obesity pandemic, contributing to 35 million deaths.
Interesting to think about…I’m sure the food industry would resist this a lot, though. It’s clear though,...
