At the movies: Fast Five.


More cars go boom, this time in Brazil. There's a lot to enjoy in this film, namely a mid-credits reversal of something that's been bothering me for two years, some heightened caperings, that muscle bear from the first one who pops up again, and using a corrupt businessman's propensity for grabbing ass to unlock his secrets. At least they didn't call it The Fa5t and The Furiou5. I bet somebody wanted to, though.

International Pop Music Interlude: Everything but the Girl


Everything but the Girl - "Corcovado"

I love the image the upper has used for this piece. It's a definite study in contrasts, one perfectly suited for a sweaty afternoon with no poolside margaritas in sight. Bossa nova drum and bass all day long, y'all.
