Nerd Alert Presents: Batman versus Superman



Originally, this was just an assignment, but I enjoyed it so much I'm gunna try my hand at video blogging. Anyways, I present the first installment of Nerd Alert! Enjoy!

CD Review: Dreams Aren't Real but These Songs Are

If there are two things I love, it's ska and Disney! So...


One of my favorite bands, Suburban Legends, recently released a CD that took some of the most popular Disney songs and gave them a skankin' new tune...

It's called Dreams Aren't Real but These Songs Are
 
This fun CD features six songs, five from Disney movies and one from an old Disney Channel TV show that my generation should be very familiar with.
 
This isn't the first time that Suburban Legends has released Disney covers. This CD is preceded by a release of Gummi Bears (a cover of the Theme Song of the Gummi Bear TV show) and Just Can't Wait to Be King and Under The Sea on their previous record, Day Job. They have also already released two music videos off the album.
 
Suburban Legends also frequents Tomorrowland Terrace at Disneyland, and is one of the more popular performers at the venue.
 
The CD is tons of fun, especially when you're listening with a car full of obsessed Disney fans on the way to Disneyland. My personal favorite is Colors of the Wind.
 
The CD can be purchased on ITunes or the band's website, suburbanlegends.com, as well as at their shows. They are going on tour soon, so keep an eye out!

Movie Review: Bad Grandpa

Sorry I've been M.I.A. readers. I worked Rob Zombies Great American Nightmare during October, still had school, and then had to catch up on school and return to "civilian life" once November hit. With all that plus some personal stuff going on, blogging has been the last thing on my mind...

But anyways, I'm back with your ultimate geeky utility belt, so lets get back to speed with a movie review...

About a week ago, I was in a bad mood and looking for an excuse to get out of the house. I ended up at my local movie theater, wasting money on what I am now here to warn you about...

I learned that there are two things that should never go together: Jackass and plot.
 
 
Bad Grandpa features Jackass star Johnny Knoxville as Irving Zisman, an elderly widower who is suddenly stuck with his grandson at his side.
 
The film attempts to give a flowing plot while still incorporating the regular hijinks and shenanigans of the popular Jackass franchise...
 
...It doesn't work...
 
Some of the pranks are semi-funny, but the effect is lost without the usual lovable cast. I'll admit, some of my laughs were forced in an attempt to make me feel like I hadn't wasted $11 and an hour and a half of my time.
 
If you want the old Jackass that you know and love, don't bother. True, the old Jackass movies and TV show were bad, but hey, at least they were funny...
