The Boat That Rocked
1 recommendation
"Now the only thing that makes me want to see this movie is a cast of actors that I think are: a) briliant b) super talented c) hilarious d) all of the above. Nothing about the trailer is making me jump up and down in my seat with excitement. I refuse to believe a great cast (Bill Nighy, Rhys Ifans, Nick Frost and Phillip Seymore Hoffman and Kenneth Branagh) could make a crappy movie. That said, I ..."

"This movie is awesome! Rent it if you can. Its about a group of prisoners taken to a remote island and trained by the military to assassinate the president of North Korea. All sorts of stuff goes wrong during the psychologically and physically rigorous training that borders on criminal. Even those in charge are pushed to the limits. It all culminates in a deadly insurrection. (based on a true st..."

The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert
2 recommendations
"This movie is so much fun! THe kind of movie that makes you sigh afterwards and feel full of exuberance and life. Priscilla is about 3 Australian drag queens (and one of them is played perfectly by Guy Pearce/ Memento) on a road trip. Along their journey the stop and performed form local audiences with a mixed reception. This movie is outstanding! And the soundtrack is great too."

Newton's character is a Ugandan student who doesn't fit in and begins dating a British boy from the near by boys academy. The couple's relationship is of course forbidden and they must hide their affections. This is a good teen drama. Perfect for a quiet Sunday afternoon."

Directed and written by musician Nick Cave, this story is set in the Australian outback and stars Guy Pearce (Momento) as an outlaw who is proposition by corrupt law enforcers. The proposition: Trade his younger brother's freedom (who faces the gallows) for his notorious and elusive older brother. Eesh! Tough one."

Apolis Activism Defend Tomorrow Tee

"I know it's a simple design, but I love multilingual or foreign language tees. My "I am not a communist" Staple tee in Chinese always starts conversations. This one is pretty cool too and looks aggressively cut so size up. Either that or the model is metro."
The Complete Black Books (boxset)

"Black Books is a british sitcom created & co-written by Dylan Moran (Shaun of The Dead, Run Fat Boy Run), who centers around the dialy life of a drunken, eccentric bookshop owner, Bernard Black (Moran). If you like good, cynical, surrealist comedies, this one's for you - personally, watching Moran in action is one of my guilty pleasures... Uhm. Boxset includes the complete series (3 to be precise)..."

"When I traveled to Europe, I was really worried about not being able to speak to the locals. Unlike many Americans, I don't think the rest of the world should learn our language. i was a little embarrassed not knowing theirs (Italian, French, and Spanish). Luckily, I got by OK, but this product would have definitely help. Essentially a twist on the modern travel dictionary, it adds little pictures..."

"Barbara Albert's ensemble drama explores the seemingly random interactions that occur between individuals connected to Manu, an Austrian woman who miraculously survives a plane crash to die years later in a banal and unexpected auto accident. Engrossed by questions of fate and chance, Albert crafts a rich character mosaic in the tradition of Robert Altman and P.T. Anderson's Magnolia. An intellige..."

MUJI Japanese Ice Ball Mold
3 recommendations
"In Japan, the bartenders make these perfectly round ice balls with just a block of ice and an ice pick. They make them to fit your glass perfectly, so that when you order your drink "on the rocks" the ice will melt more slowly, not watering down the expensive whiskey you just ordered. I have one in my freezer and have to say that it is equally effectively for my soda on a warm summer day."
