Same as the new Naruto thread. I figured it would be a good idea to create a new thread. So, opinions on the latest goodness?

I just love to know and share books that are currently being read. Why? Who knows. Anyhow, I'm Currently Reading: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl. Hopefully most know the story: poor Charlie and 4 other children get the chance to take a tour of the infamous Willy Wonka...

It seems like all the kids these days are listening to that dubstep. Kind of weird though, it just sounds like a bunch of whale noises to me. Whalestep.

A very well directed, filmed, acted, and written T.V. series. I began watching it through streaming on my Xbox 360 and I had to finish watching it before the week was out. It has every major element that anyone could want. Sex, violence, drama, revenge, with twists and turns you may not see...

I'd say this movie was, at best, mediocre in delivery. Acting was okay, story was moderately distracting, and the visuals were well delivered to the mood intended. Now, all that said, this movie is also a thinly disguised commentary on consumerism and, to a lesser extent, vanity. In the end,...

You know (or maybe you don't) when you watch a good film and there's this sweeping orchestral score in the background, and you think "damn, why can't anyone make an album of this stuff?". Enter E.S. Posthumus, a group which Wikipedia defines as "a form of classical that intertwines popular style...

I have a vauge recolection of a scene in a movie where Steve Martin (at least I'm pretty sure it's him) is driving on one of those winding roads in CA that go up a mountain, flipping out about something or other, when he gets stuck behind a slow moving water delivery truck. At that, he totally...

Who has heard of these guys? They're a band that is rather quickly gaining steam in the world of rock, and for good reason. 1) Their vocalist is, and I don't say this likely because I'm big on vocal aesthetic, immeasurably talented. He has fantastic range and is incredibly gifted at singing in...

Not a lot to say, other than, "YOU KNOW, TIM, THERE ARE PEOPLE OTHER THAN DEPP AND CARTER THAN CAN BE CREEPY FUCKERS!!!" That is all. DeWsZ2b_pK4

I just saw this movie last night with a couple of friends, and let me tell you, it is creepy as shit. Here is the trailer if you are interested in it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_UxLEqd074 This is a great trailer, you get to see all the people in the movie theater jump at the film! This a...

Holy fuck, this movie will blow your mind. If you haven't seen it, go do so immediately. Spend the extra money and see it in IMAX. Seriously. Why are you still reading this? go watch it. Now.

A true classic never dies, and this series is definitely a classic. Saint Seiya is one of my newest crazes in manga and anime, mostly due to the new Saint Seiya series: Saint Seiya - The Lost Canvas, which tells the story of the 1700's Holy War and its importance to the main Saint Seiya story. ...

So this manga is really near and dear to my heart. It's about two teens who decide to become mangakas (people that write manga for a living). It really gives you an in-depth understanding of how manga is written and what it takes to really get a series off the ground.

So, I don't think we ever had a thread for One Piece. Who reads it, and what do you think about it?

I was playing Marvel vs Capcom 2 some days ago and omg. The soundtrack is funkilicious and great. Sounds like fusion and funk. Great work by Tetsuya Shibata. Maybe one of the most famous soundtracks for recent games would be Fallout 3's Galaxy News Radio music. Great big band and some really...

No spoilers here... How many people have heard of this? It is the equivalent of Naruto Part II. Picking up where the series leaves of during the filler, we see everything after the Sasuke Retrieval Arc in the story. I am personally really excited to see this. Previews on Youtube don't...

Kind of a cool "Up with People without the religion slant" sort of thing, this is a Slovenian choir that performs a lot of a cappella stuff. Despite the clear accents for the songs they perform in English, their music intonation remains fairly clear and pure. yjbpwlqp5Qw I also kinda dig on...

I appreciate music and musicians that don't take themselves too seriously. Sometimes, music is just meant to be fun and amusing, and this video easily fits right into that niche. With Dick Dale and the Deltones' Misirilou as the underlying music, this video has a good laugh at the "break dance"...

SM Stirling writes a compelling concept in his Emberverse series, starting with Dies the Fire, followed by The Protector's War and A Metting at Corvallis. The general premise for this series is based on his Nantucket series, but essentially deals with the idea that shit goes crazy, and nearly all...

Angelina Jolie as a possible Russian double agent sleeper. So, Angelina, guns, butt-kicking. As long as you go in looking for that and nothing more, I suspect you'll be highly entertained. QZ40WlshNwU I am noticing an increasing trend for female combats to include the "run against the wall...

I'm Yours, Jason Mraz: well open up your mind and see like me open up your plans and damn you're free look into your heart and you'll find love love love love listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me a la one big family it's your godforsaken right to be loved, loved,...

Oh, for fuck's sake... A9o4ZlC4AOM Really?

I must say, I alternate between trepidation and excitement for the new Iron Man flick. The trailer doesn't really change that. siQgD9qOhRs RDJ, totally dug his portrayal of Stark in the first film, and I gotta admit that Gwyn was pretty smoking in a "beneath the surface" kinda way. And,...

As a general premise, this looks fairly cool. But... fuckin' Nick Cage. Why does must your shitty acting always defile what can be good?!? Hit-girl from the second trailer looks entertaining, in the very least. Normal trailer: krOzVRj9z88 Red-band trailer: vNp3hpVpY7A

Steve Buscemi, Sarah Silverman, Romany Malco... looks entertaining, if nothing else. aPTm_TyCULk

I recently got a new iPod Classic, 120g. I could use some help in song suggestions. Currently i only have about 22g used. I know everyone always says I listen to everything. But they really dont. I listen to most songs at least. Some artist I do have and like: The Cranberries Eminem Garth...

Came out last week, and it's being hailed as one of the scariest movies of all time. Anybody else seen it? Thoughts? To those who haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. I'm going to go ahead and put the rest in spoiler tags, just in case. So I think the reason that the movie is being...
