Episode IX
So I finally released the long awaited episode nine. I am trying out a new format and I need feedback to help me decide whether or not to go back to the old format or keep this new one. The following paragraphs have a synopsis of the show and links to all the sites I mentions as well as some better reviews.

So Transformers is finally out and I am officially stoked to see it. Watch the trailer here:
Movie Reviews
in theaters:
Mr. Brooks
ZZZ--
Plot: Mr. Brooks (Costner) is your normal working father in every way but one. In his spare time he enjoys killing people. While committing his 'last murder' he is seen by Mr. Smith (Cook) who instead of turning Brooks into the police decides he wants to join in the killing business. Mr Brooks is a roller coaster ride of twists and turns as Brooks and Smith try to plan their next murder while avoiding Detective Tracy Atwood (Moore) who is hot on their trail.
1408
ZZZZ-
Starring: John Cusack, Samuel L. Jackson, and Jasmine Jessica Anthony
Plot: Based on a Steven King short story, 1408 follows Mike Enslin (Cusak), a writer obsessed with the paranormal since the death of his daughter (Jasmine Jessica Anthony), into the fabled hotel room 1480 in the Dolphin Hotel, run by Gerald Olin (Jackson). Doubt quickly turns into sheer terror as Enslin discovers that 1408 is really a "fucking evil room".
random dvd's:
The Hitcher(2007)
Z-----
Starring: Sean Bean, Sophia Bush, and Zachary Knighton
Review: Cliche story of a young couple (Bush & Knighton) finding themselfs relentlessly stalked by a deranged murderer (Bean). Overall a dull, cliched plot but hidden inside is a mediocre slasher movie worth Redboxing and watching once.
Pan's Labyrinth
ZZZ--
Directed by: Guillermo del Toro
Review: Slow but original story but the visuals are breathtaking. Definitely a movie to rent or even buy.
Lords of Dogtown
ZZZ--
Starring: Heath Ledger, John Robinson, Emile Hirsch, and Johnny Knoxville
Synopsis: Set in the early years of skate boarding, Lords of Dogtown shows the rise and fall of the legendary Z-Boys and how they changed the face of skateboarding forever.
Rent Instead:
Dogtown and Z-Boys
ZZZZ-
Why: If you are really interested in the 1970's skate scene this documentary does a much better, and more entertaining, job of presenting the same information. And it doesn't have the bad acting, dull montages, and blatant celebrity cameos.
Cool Sites
1. Stickam ZZZZZ
Live video chat site that allows users to host live video shows with live viewer feedback. Fantastic for podcasting.
2. Indie 911 ZZZ--
Networking site for people in the independent music scene. Be sure to check out the Hoooka player.
3. MP3 Tunes/Oboe PlayerZZZZ-
MP3 Tunes allows you to upload your entire music library to their servers to access at any time, anywhere. Great for people with huge MP3 libraries and insufficient amounts of hard drive space.
Stellar Downloads
1. Yahoo WidgetsZZZZZ
Great for PC users who envy the Dashboard capabilities of a Mac. Widgets are small, simple programs that run on or beneath your desktop. They can improve PC usability
and are sometimes just plain fun to use or look at.
2. GIMPZZZ--
GIMP is a freeware alternative to Photoshop. User interface is simple and easy to use and it has most of the same features as Photoshop.
3. Monkey JamZZ---
Monkey Jam is a easy to use animation tool that is great for those interested in stop motion animation or even simple pen or pencil animation. It is freeware and fun to play with if you have the time or patience for animation.

Sad News is Bad News
Switched On is nearing it's end. The best podcast on the internet is finishing off after an impressive 150 episodes. Hosts Rob, Jerry, and Brian just don't have time for the show anymore, which is understandable. Be sure to catch the last three episodes and the archives at switchedonshow.com.

Alright, thanks for listening. Episode X will be out in a few days.
