TV: Comedy Central Presents, Entourage, True Blood
LOST has ended.. Always Sunny hasn't started yet, The Office season ended, not much is really on TV right now.

Movies: (Saw recently) Predator, Toy Story 3, Splice, Airbender
Predator was OK, a MILLION plot holes.. The Last Airbender was not as bad as everyone is saying it is.. I was also high, keep that in mind. Toy Story 3 was great, Splice was a joke. Inception will be fan-fucking-tastic though.

Music: Eminem, Wax, Black Keys
Eminem's new music is incredible. He really re-invented himself as an artist, and totally changed his style. I love it, even when comparing it to the old Slim, who may have been a better artist, but he's only improved as a lyricist. Wax, along with his twin brother Herbal T, is the next best thing in music. He's seriously one of the most genuinely incredible lyricists I've ever heard, while keeping his substance interesting, creative and fun. I promise you've never heard a flow like his before:

cus our flow is different than yours
and you aint really never heard this type of spittin before
we keep spittin till you shittin your drawers
keep spitting some more 'til there's nothing but piss n shit on the floor

i'm just a musical genius, with a beautiful penis
and magical balls, tickling them vaginal walls
ladies sit back in applause, right after you cum
i spit tight, lick right, call me dracula tongue

i make y'all seem boring
kinda like a women's basketball team scoring, on a layup
by my flow's Jordan-esque, if you're crack i'm more than mesc-aline
important specimen, ignoring questioning from government
asking where i'm from and who i'm running with

i slam dunk on you crazy chumps
fuck your chick after she made me lunch
skeet, skeet on her lady lumps
so many of my kids on her fucking face
shit reminds me of the brady bunch

Games: Continuum, MLB The Show 2010
The Show is the best sports game I've ever played on a system. I use it on PS3 on a huge plasma HDTV, and it's like.. seriously unbelievable. The Franchise gameplay is UNBELIEVABLY realistic statistically.

the roots - how i got over

[genocidal]

Music: I guess I'm sort of like Zeus lately, I haven't listened to really anything new. Most recent I guess are Band of Horses's newest album and Drive-By Trucker's newest. No real interest in listening to a bunch of shit I probably won't like anymore to find stuff I do like (so basically I don't listen to indie rock anymore).

TV Shows: Entourage, Friday Night Lights, The Shield, and True Blood (occasionally) are what I watch now. Pretty boring TV season at the moment, I'm waiting on Dexter, Sons of Anarchy, Breaking Bad, Damages, and Fringe to return.

Movies: recently watched Darkman, Body of Lies, Night of the Hunter, Zodiac, W., The Ruling Class, and 1408 and would recommend any of them (1408 got kind of boring though).

Video Games: Don't play them.

Books: Await Your Reply by Dan Chaon (read it, it's good), The Killer Inside Me by Jim Thompson (50s crime novel), Revolutionaries by Jack Rakove (non-fiction about the Founders, it's ok so far), and a bunch of short stories that the New Yorker is doing for a series on young authors. I have Stieg Larsson on my list of shit to read but I may have to bump it up since basically everyone likes them a lot.

movies - gonna watch micmacs this weekend, same director that did amelie.

just watched this. incredible shots, hilarious quirks, fantastic soundtrack. Best movie i've seen in a very long time.

[Jason]

good to hear! as it turns out, i didn't get a chance to watch it this past weekend so i'm going to shoot for this sunday.

I know it's not a new film, but I just watched Christopher Nolan's first movie (Following - 1998) and it's seriously awesome. Highly recommend, it's available as a torrent.
