Do It!
Nothing
It's time to sit back and relax. The
sun is starting to show its face again, and while it may not exactly
be beach weather yet, it's still time to kick back and do nothing
for two weeks before the rush of the final few weeks leading up to
exams. Cherish it while you can.
See It!
Hellboy 2: The Golden Army
The first one came out of nowhere to be
one heck of a fun film, and by the first accounts coming in, this one
is even better. Big Red is back to save the day once more with his
pyromaniac girlfriend, Jeffery Tambor (The Larry Sanders Show,
Arrested development), and Family Guy's Seth McFarlane voicing a
German ectoplasmic mist. And it's directed by pan's Labyrinth
genius (and future Hobbit director) Guillermo del Toro. Should be a
couple of hours of good fun.
Read It!
The Watchmen
The so-called "Citizen Kane of
graphic novels" is being made into a film with 300's Zack Snyder
behind the camera. It was written by Alan Moore (the genius behind V
for Vendetta) in the late 80s and is about a group of superheroes
without powers (most of them anyway) in an alternate America in 1985.
It was a work that took graphic novels to a level of high art and is
in the same league as great literary classics in terms of depth and
meaning. As one critic claimed, "At
the risk of being slightly hyperbolic, Watchmen
is
such a monumental achievement that it makes Moby
Dick look
like a flaming pile of horseshit by comparison." Read it before the
movie ruins it.
Eat
It!
Gluten
Free
It
may be a bit of effort but if you're feeling a bit lethargic, want
to get a bit healthier, or just are bored with your diet, going
gluten free can do wonders for your energy levels and overall mental
and physical health. And no it's not just hippie mumbo-jumbo; it
will make you feel better.
Don't Listen to It!
Bloc Party
Bloc Party's new album is shit.
Listen to Silent Alarm or A Weekend in the City instead. Those are
some great albums that make this new one, Intimacy, that much more
disappointing.
