The Beautiful Girls - La mar

Really pretty song by an Australian group called The Beautiful Girls.

Toy Story 3

In case you, somehow, managed to miss it. Toy Story 3 is now available on Netflix for instant play. The movie's pretty phenomenal. As far as Toy Story's go, it's definitely on par. Not to mention the original Toy Story, which instantly made Pixar a household name, would probably make anyone's top ten list for best animated movies of all time. And while it's the final feature installment of the groundbreaking series, you should be happy to know that Disney/Pixar plan on making shorts with Buzz, Woody, and the gang, to be put before future movies.

Super 8

June 10th 2011. I will be sitting in a movie theatre with a crazy amount of anticipation. I have seen the trailer for this movie about 20 times, I still don't know what it is about but it remains to be my most anticipated movie of this summer. I literally cannot wait to see it. As far as I know, the movie is basically about a group of kids who like to make monster movies on their super 8 camera. One day while filming a movie, they witness a train derail and crash. From then on its a blur to me. There might be aliens involved, who knows? All I know is that J.J. Abrams and Steven Spielberg are making it, and that I am seeing it. Check out the trailer. Please.

Street Art by Banksy

Below is a link to an article on another blog, called Bored Panda, which features 80 pictures of street artist, Banks's, graffiti. Banksy is one of the most known street artists today and he recently directed a film called Exit Through the Gift Shop (which was nominated for Best Documentary at this year's Oscars). The film's really cool and gives a first hand look at the production of awesome vandalism. The film is currently available for Netflix Instant Play so if you like what you see and have a bit of time, I'd check that out.

Tally Hall

A song by Tally Hall that I had never heard. If you don't know these guys, they're a pretty legitimate band from Michigan. The first album of theirs, Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum (link below), was a hit, really good stuff. They got some following after a few of their songs were featured in The O.C. Their new album comes out on June 21st and I'm definitely looking forward to it. So check these guys out. They also like to make little videos and have an internet show that you can find on their website.

Joe Purdy

I don't know why I'd admit to this, but the first time I ever heard this song was on Grey's Anatomy. Whoops. Anyways, it's a good song. Ch-ch-ch-check it out!

Seu Jorge - Ziggy Stardust

Seu Jorge- Ziggy Stardust

This is a cover of David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust...personal favorite. Wes Anderson had this guy cover a bunch of Bowie songs for the soundtrack of his film The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou And since the movie is about a documentary film crew, Seu Jorge is actually in the film, and plays the guy who does the soundtrack for the movies they make.. making it a kind of russian doll situation.

Anyways, I recommend checking out Seu's other renditions of Bowie songs, as well as checking out the movie.
