A Melodic Dream World of Fantasy



4.5/ 5
Blake Lewis-A.D.D. (Audio Day Dream)

American Idol was really looking down at the start of 2006, especially when Chris Daughtry's elimination infuriated over 100,000 fans and had them all boycotting the show. The show went on, however, as it should have, because we wouldn't have had talent in the next year. Which was creatively found within Mr. Blake Lewis. His beatboxing and smooth pop voice was a breath of fresh air within the stalement that Taylor Hicks left behind. Blake's self-esteem and great creativity allowed all the "youngins" to vote for him; but only to get him to 2nd place when he threw the competition in the end, trying to allow Jordin to win so that he would get a better record deal-which he did! "Audio Day Dream" is definately one of the coolest CDs to listen to, and is truly a competitor when it comes to BEST CD OF 2007. The music is fresh. The music sounds so much like a bunch of my favourite artists combined. The CD kicks off with a random intro which is kind of unnecessary, but flows into the single which we mostly know (playing on the Reviewin the World MyPod). Then we get a fresh and sassy beat from "Gots to Get Her", which is a truly stand-out track that the CD produces and invigorates the body with fresh dance tunes. "Know My Name" is next, which features newcomer Lupe Fiasco, who gives it a nice "will.i.am" touch. The song is still quite great though. "How Many Words" comes next, which is also good to listen to, and yet again, freshens up the CD. Followed by "Surrender" and "Hate 2 Love Her" which both sound sort of similar, but still pack a big punch on the CD, "Surrender" being one of my favourite songs. Than comes "Without U", which has a nice tone, but takes some getting used to. After that quiet tune, we jump into "Here's My Hello" and "What'cha Got 2 Lose" which are both 2 of my favourite tracks on the CD because of their upbeat and vibrant tones. Than comes a beatboxer track known as "She's Makin Me Lose It", which is poppy but as one of the most amounts of beatboxing on the disc, making it the best dance song. "BShorty Grabs Mic!" is next, and is the first track to fail in my eyes. The song is all beatbox, but sounds kind of retarded. I'm pretty sure that it is freestyle. The next 2 songs "End of the World" and "1000 Miles" are really good tracks, but thy don't stick into your head. Than finally "I Got U" is a catchy tune which sounds very radio friendly and catchy. Than there's a useless outro. But no one cares for those things.
Overall, this is a FANTASTIC CD- miuns the intro, outro and B SHORTY GRABS MIC! crap.

BEST SONGS: Gots to Get Her, Here's My Hello, Surrender, What'cha Got to Lose, She's Makin Me Lose It

PURE CINEMA GOLD!



5/5
The Golden Compass

In a holiday season where Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter no longer remain supreme-a new legend is born unto this world. THE GOLDEN COMPASS!!! This movie was fantastic and amazingly well done. The visual effects were completely stunning and captivating. The storyline was fantasticly reproduced and duplicated from that of the original novel down to the last detail. This movie was a magnifivent movie for the holidays and will, no doubt, be nominated for one of the BEST MOVIES OF 2007. Being a fan of the books, I've been keen on seeing this, but all the athiest controversey got me worried that the movie would have to water-down the against-government view of the novel, and would make the movie a sketchy, boring movie like the failing Eragon of last holdiay season. The Golden Compass is truly among the ranks of the high fantasy movies, and is definately one to remember !

HIGHLIGHTS: The Golden Compass has seriously become one of my favourite movies. It was visually stunning. It had an amazing plot. It stayed true to the novel. And most of all, it kept me WANTING MORE. Can't wait for the sequel in 2009!
DEFINATELY ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES OF THE YEAR, AND ALREADY LISTED AS ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES IN DECEMBER!

LOWLIGHTS: *coff* goes the daemon.

The Poll !!!

I just put it a new sidebar app, known as The Poll !!! This week's poll is asking for who you think should win BEST CD OF... 2007! If i get tons of votes, i may take it into consideration for who should win! But their are more nominees. Sadly the app only lets me put 4 up, changing the whole outcome. But for now, VOTE VOTE VOTE!!!

Futurama Scores Big!



4/5
Futurama: Bender's Big Score

On November 27th, Futurama followed the Family Guy suit and released a straight-to-DVD movie, entitled; Bender's Big Score. The movie is well done, considering we haven't seen the likes of a new Futurama episode in two years, which is cleverly stated at the beggining (in the same way as The Simpsons Movie). Than we get a mix of the original opening and BAM! the show starts with everyone partying, and than something AWFUL happens. But I can't tell you that, you'll have to rent it or buy it yourself. The movie is actually quite good, being exactly as funny as Futurama was when it used to originally air. It stayed true to its original form, with lots of snickers and a few LOL laughs. A lot of characters that had one or a few appearences on the show came back for a cameo, including the Santa Claus, and the mofia-bots. But the difference i found between this movie and The Simpsons Movie and Fanmily Guy's movie is that this one didn't seem like an elongated episode. The Futurama movie had many twits and turns and even had mysteries involved within the plot itself.
HIGHLIGHTS: The movie was very good for a straight-to-DVD movie. It would have done well in the theaters, but maybe it was better this way b/c there wasn't such a high expectation for an AMAZING movie. The movie was overall, funny and witty, which is all a need to have fun on a Friday night. Not to mention the mystery at the end which was mind-blowing!

LOWLIGHTS: The movie had very few, but i felt that there were some really random parts and some random songs added to the movie. The ending could have also ended, but it kept rolling on, which kind of pissed me off, but in the end, it all makes perfect sense.

Overall, the movie was extremely funny and very good. I think it deserves BEST MOVIE IN NOVEMBER !!

December Outlook

December looks like an extremely slow month for music, but an extremely amazing month for movies! Including: The Golden Compass, National Treasure 2, I Am Legend, etc. But besides that, there isn't too much excitement for December here. Nevertheless, there will still be revies on everything i listen to or see, and there will be pushback reviews from November, like "Futurma: Bender's Big Score". So enjoy the month!
