Tiger Woods has a few things on his mind…

1. CONCERT Nneka at SOBs
Her voice ringing clean and clear, this little dynamo from Nigeria is poised to take over the US if only everyone will pay attention (she did an amazing job on Letterman, so I’m hoping people will). Her message of love and universality is clear…
So way back in October, the Washington Post published an article by Ann Hornaday, entitled Women & Film, which posed the following question:
I had been ruminating (read: seething) on this for a while now, and was already sufficiently annoyed by a lot of things in this…
I’ve always been a fan of remix culture – anything from hip-hop sampling to officially-sanctioned club remixes and extended mixes of popular radio tunes to, most recently, mashups – as it displays a creativity and understanding of art that often surpasses the original work or works. If you think about it, just about all creative output is based on or…

1. CONCERT Nneka at SOBs
Her voice ringing clean and clear, this little dynamo from Nigeria is poised to take over the US if only everyone will pay attention (she did an amazing job on Letterman, so I’m hoping people will). Her message of love and universality is clear as she wails through “Suffri” and “V.I.P.” getting the audience to sing along…
Welcome one and all to the only list that provides you with a synopsis of not the best, not the most powerful or fastest, but the sexiest cars of the past decade. Yes, cars can be very sexy. In the midst of this massive project to find the ten sexiest cougars, panthers, and kittens from 2000 to 2009, I was…

I’m not referring to the concept of Monogamy, although if you’d like to be a fan of that, you go right ahead! Instead, I’m referring to the film that I co-produced and co-edited this past summer starring the great Chris Messina and Rashida Jones. So demonstrate your love of me, your love of an actual thinking man’s film, by clicking…

Holy Mother of Jackie Chan, yes. I’m sort of angry at everyone I know that nobody took the time to alert me that this trailer was available. It wasn’t until this week when I turned the corner on my way to work and saw the three story ad boasting “Rock Out with Your Glock Out” that I knew we had…
![[Review] GACKT – “RE:BORN”](http://www.popten.net/wp-content/plugins/simple-post-thumbnails/timthumb.php?src=/wp-content/thumbnails/6751.jpg&w=200&h=150&zc=1&ft=jpg)
On 2009.12.02, after 4 years without a new original album (2007’s 0079-0088 was a Gundam cover album, and 2009’s Slo-Pachinko Gladiator Evolution Original Soundtrack was just that — a soundtrack), GACKT returned with a new album entry in the RR (Requiem et Reminiscence) Project, RE:BORN. But does RE:BORN stand tall, or does it fall on its face?

The other night, Gabby went on the ESRB website then IM’d me. I was intrigued by her findings, and so the following conversation occurred. (As with last time, my replies are in bold, while hers are in quotes.):

So, it happened. 10 Nominations. Personally, I would have rather they finally made a comedy category. A girl can dream. Whatever, the whole things a frickin’ circus, and has been so for years, but one I dutifully take part in like a proper movie-lover should. So, I shall rave and rant with appropriate passion and outrage. Conspicuous by its absence…
Sometime last week, as I was rewatching bits and pieces of Season 5, that feeling came back. It’s a sensation that took me back in 2004, when the hatch was closed, the Island was new, and Hurley was just a chubby stranger with a golf fetish. A message wafted through the air waves, repeating the same message over and over…
The geek have officially inherited the Earth, as was prophesied in Psalms 37:7 (more or less) so many bearded men ago. It’s a fairly recent thing, having happened somewhere between Google’s ascent to ubiquity, the second installment of the Lord of the Rings trilogy and the eyebrow-raising popularity of Weird Al’s White & Nerdy. And since history is told by the…
Come with me, friends, to another time. Let’s say 1998ish. Ross and Rachel rule the airwaves, ER is hailed as the Best Drama Evar. As the sun sets on Seinfeld, critics mourn its passing, proclaiming that we’re not likely to see a show of its brilliance ever again.
I watched an episode of Seinfeld yesterday. It’s still funny, despite the canned…
I sincerely hope I made every attempt to be fair and honest and if I left off a film you love, please know that it was not with malice and there are only ten spots. I even split them into two genres because taking any of these off the list kind of made my heart hurt. Also, feel free to…
So we here at popten got together and assembled a gigantic list of our favorite albums of the past decade. Then we voted on each others choices. It is amazing how wide a variety of listening styles your trusty pop culture gurus have. I’ve assembled the top vote-getters into a trusty A to Z list. Albums are in order by…
Clearly, this decade has offered much in the way of hip-hop evolution, even though many purists and true schoolers argue that the street music has been gentrified, and diluted to an almost unrecognizable form. Blah. It’s still hip hop the same way the Catera is still a Cadillac. Things change. And things have changed. Major.
(In no particular order)
