Trailer: "No Heroics"
It’s a Brit comedy about 4 loser-ish superheroes that I’ll be adding to my download queue from now on.

#15: "Jaded" - Aerosmith (2001)
There’s a certain timelessness about Aerosmith that transcends their redneck rock bravado, catchy power choruses and tight leather pants.
I can’t think of many bands made up of truly fugly band members who are and will remain effortlessly cool. Not in a mainstream “Band of the Decade” kind of way but more in a “We’ve fucked more groupies than the...

#14: "S Club Party" - S Club 7 (1999)
I never knew what to make of S Club 7. They we’re an odd collection of hot-bodied teens with awkward British accents, a collection of manufactured pop-band cliches - girls fit for porno, token blonde bloke who looked like Teddy Sheringham, a token black kid who had the burden of injecting that hip-hop nigga vibe and token buzz-cut singlet wearing guy.
Let me take you back to some...

Top 10 crazy-assed reactions to American Idol... →
I know there’s a lot of Lambert lovin’ that’s been going on but I never knew it was this intense. Tween girls breaking out into hoarse, throaty screams of anger and despair (the type found on death metal albums), gay dudes having “I just lost 5 million on the stock exchange” kinda breakdowns - these people fucking go apeshit when they found out who didn’t win...

Tweetingtoohard.com: Twitter assholes on parade
It’s funny how Twitter’s quickly becoming a tool for self-inflating wankery, where asses with delusions of magnificence waft into your consciousness like the scent of dog poo stuck on your shoes. Tweetingtoohard.com is perfect for reminding you that douchebaggery is just one self indulgent “I’m way more awesome than you are” tweet away. Expect to see a lot of entries...

#13: "Everything Must Go" - Manic Street Preachers...
I had always wanted to perform this song live but I never had a string ensemble to back me up. Of course, I also don’t have James Dean Bradfield’s vocal range. On the bright side, I don’t look like a fat, scouser-y, Jewish bloke.
Bonus: “The Everlasting“ (cool flaming everything effect)
In 1996, I stuffed a muffin in the exhaust pipe of a teacher I didn’t...

Wolfram Alpha: stupidly named but frighteningly...
The interwebs has been abuzz with the launch of Wolfram Alpha - a really smart online knowledge engine that is able to formulate answers to questions or return relevant factual data based on keywords. It might sound fluffy the way I’m describing it but it’s actually an insanely impressive yet frighteningly powerful development in the field of adaptive computation. This is one smart...

#12: "She's The One" - Robbie Williams (1999)
I would feel sorry for the dude that was meant to be the girl’s original skating partner - he takes a tumble in the middle and Robbie replaces him. A Robbie cockblock is something you probably will never recover from. The dude fucking sommersaulted your ass. You’d never hear the end of it.
In 1999, I used to think Robbie Williams was cool. Which is funny cos he’s turned...

#11: "Never Forget" - Take That (1995)
I’m probably just prejudiced and superficial but I always believed that the frontman should be the handsomest dude in the band. If not the best looking then at the very least, not the ugliest. Thank you Gary Barlow for showing me the error of my ways. You can be the ugly, boring chap who leads your troupe to glory only to release 2 forgettable shitstain excuses for albums. And you get...

60 most anticipated films of 2009!
I had a long break last week and caught up on a lot of couch potato-ing. Despite catching up on a huge archive of films and TV series (among them, 20+ odd episodes of Lost S4 & 5), I ended up making that list longer by adding a lot more stuff to my pool of videos (30 Rock S1 & 2, FOTC S2, Robot Chicken and a bunch of DVDs).
Saw Star Trek last night and was pretty blown away by how awesome...

#10: "Tell Me How You Feel" - Joy Enriquez (2000)
This video coming out during the height the Latino circus when the J.Los, Shakiras and all those, steaming-hot Peruvians named Ricky or Martin or the like started dominating the charts. I can remember getting a really gross vibe from all of these Latina starlets. For one, they all had very bad fashion sense (ie: orange see-thru top exposing white bra paired off with army-print cargo pants)....

The world is safer thanks to Rajinikanth
He’s the everyday-man’s hero. He looks just like any other macha at the mamak, pot-bellied, smelly and of thinning hair. With his fucking cool 80’s denim jacket, chewing his gum like he owned the streets. Thing is, he owns the streets. Thugs don’t fucking stand a chance, 4 of them coming at him. He just shrugs them off by sheer force of his Indian manliness. He...

To watch: 500 Days of Summer
Oh no. Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Zooey Deschanel in typical boy-meets-girl flick featuring a doomed but faultlessly endearing romantic union & Regina Spektor fueled soundtrack. It’s like the Garden State for kids of this generation.
