A movie truly so bad it's good?

New Line Cinema pledges to give you more bad movie for your money.

The movie with the plot that had made it a complete joke on internet is being given a additional reworking to make it the biggest joke ever literally. After the news surfaced, that Samuel L. Jackson was starring in a movie where the entire plot revolved around him being trapped on a commerical airliner where a very large amount of deadly snakes have been set loose, word of mouth gave an unexpected cult status throughout the internet. As a result, the studio reverted the title to the upcoming summer movie Flight 121 to its self-explanatory working title Snakes on a Plane and are now bringing it BACK into production in order to add material to legitamitely take it from PG-13 to an R rating, including more gore, more deaths, more nudity and, yes, you got it, more snakes. The move is an attempt to forgo the action-movie audience for the now-obvious larger audience who plan on laughing thier asses off as Samuel L. Jackson yells his new catch-phrase, "I want these motherfucking snakes off the motherfucking plane!".

From my experience, movies that are actually designed to be bad don't turn out to be entertaining in any way what-so-ever and it's the movies crafted by a bad movie-maker such as Ed Wood who truly believe they're making the greatest movie of all time that earn the laughable cult status. But this might actually be the best of both worlds, between the really bad CG-snakes attacking passengers and Samuel L. Jackson whipping around fake rubber snakes almost out of pure frustration, it seems almost too bad to be true.

Best episode of South Park ever.

Matt Stone and Trey Parker get in the last word as Chef is killed off on South Park for the 10th season premiere.

By using old sound clips, mostly from the very first episode of South Park, Chef is dragged though the mud in South Park's 10th season premiere where he is then very brutally killed off after choosing a cult called the "Super Adventure Club" over going back to South Park. At the end of episode, which is in itself is "a spoof of spoof" of the practice of Scientology (shown last year), Kyle calls out to viewers to appreciate the years Issac Hayes spent with South Park and direct any anger towards the Church of Scientology who forced him to quit the show in the first place. South Park also hints at hope that maybe Chef might somehow come back to them. South Park fans have already called for a boycott against the upcoming third Mission : Impossible movie starring Tom Cruise and any other future movie Tom Cruise is involved in. I really suggest anyone upset with the amount of misuse of self-appointed power the Church of Scientology has decided to dish out or anyone who's just plain sick of Tom Cruise being a complete dumbass on a regular basis join in on the boycott.

This has to be both the funniest and the most traumatizing episode of South Park ever. As a South Park fan from the very first episode almost a decade ago, Chef getting overkilled like that is something you don't expect/want to happen so suddenly. Leave it to the current king of satires to make something like this so incredibly funny.

Let the Circle Not Be Broken

A strong attachment to tradition and great optimism for the future of Fax backs the theme of this milestone album marking the end of a decade in this series of collaborations between ambient figureheads Namlook and Moufang. As recently the Move D • Namlook episodes have been playing out like an ambient journey across an alienscape. this latest chapter opens floating through the stark and abstract "Sea of Holes" and surfaces with a variety of different sounds that have defined the Move D Namlook duo over the years, the bouncy beaty "Springtime" and "Der strahlende Verlier", which looks back to the past in fond reflection and finally ending up on the emotionally tranquil acoustic landscape of "Heidelberg, Texas". A promise of great things to come.

Issac Hayes quits South Park.

The voice of Chef quits after nine years of South Park over the Tom Cruise episode.

And it's definitely not for suggesting that Tom Cruise is gay. "Trapped in the Closet" is quickly becoming South Park's most controversial episode as Issac Hayes, who happens to be a member of the Church of Scientology, made his first vocal outburst concerning the show's recent lack of respect toward religions. Throughout the years, South Park has featured episodes satirizing Christians, Catholics, Jews, Mormons, Muslims, and just about other religion you can think of on a consistent basis. But after countering the recent attention the Church of Scientology, South Park receives its first actual taste of harmful backlash as Issac Hayes, who received instant praise as the voice of Chef ever since the very first episode of South Park, will not be part of the tenth season which begins March 22. Creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker respond by pointing out how Issac preaches completely different standards for all other religions and isn't so much preaching tolerance and respect towards others as he is applying exclusive favoritism towards the superiors in his own community as Issac never showed any disapproval in any way over the content of the show until now

The Bush Dynasty: Year Six

"I do my best work when there's a Republican in the White House", says Al Jourgensen. Probably the only thing to come out of the Bush re-election would be the anticipation of the next forthcoming album from Ministry within the year. But until then, Al offers up this pack of extras from last album's sessions to help put up with the past year's tribulations. The new version for "No W" as well as 'updates' for classics such as the immortal "N.W.O." and "Stigmata". Also "Bloodlines" for those who bought the first pressings of the latest album, which, for those who can't place the name, sounds like a mad cross between "Bela Lugosi's Dead" and "So What". Some album tracks and live tracks are thrown in for filler. If you couldn't get enough of last year's rage against or simply need a little boost of the ol' will to go on, then pick it up.

Darkwave • Synthpop

Probably my favorite band at the moment.

Good old-fashioned darkwave just like 80's used to make. Video games and Cyndi Lauper nostalgia fuel this refreshingly addictive debut album from The Birthday Massacre. The opening synthline on "Horror Show" instantly grabs you before colliding into roaring guitars. The overwhelmingly charming voice of lead female singer Chibi, whose performance on "Play Dead" as all the cheesiness and style that made retro-pop so classic and memorable. Combining the classic 80's style with the energy and power of today, Violet is the strongest darkwave debut to come out in a very long time.
