Hello readers! We are back with another fun giveaway. If you are a fan of LCD Soundsystem, you may want to check this out. We are giving away an iPod Shuffle and the soundtrack for Noah Baumbach’s new movie, Greenberg. The soundtrack was done by LCD Soundsystem’s James Murphy with 11 Murphy solo pieces and 1 new LCD Soundsystem song. The soundtrack also includes songs by Nite Jewel, Albert Hammond, Galaxie 500, the Sonics, and Duran Duran.
The movie is about Greenberg (Ben Stiller) who is at a crossroads in his life. He doesn’t have a job and has no real intention of finding one. He begins house-sitting for his younger brother, and reconnecting with old friends. However, he finds himself spending time instead with his brother’s personal assistant Florence (Greta Gerwig), an aspiring singer and herself something of a lost soul. The film stars Ben Stiller, Rhys Ifans, Greta Gerwig, and Jeniffer Jason Leigh.

The latest film by Richard Curtis (Love, Actually), The Boat That Rocked, has been picked up by Focus Features for distribution in the United States. The movie is about the colorful DJs of a pirate radio station, that plays nothing but rock music, operating on a tanker off the coast of the U.K. The movie has a really solid cast, staring Nick Frost, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Bill Nighy, Kenneth Branagh, and Rhys Ifans.
The movie seems like it would be a slam dunk, but the reviews over in the U.K. have been less than stellar. Apparently, the biggest problem is the length of the film. In effort to salvage the movie before the U.S release date, Focus has decided to edit the 129 minute movie to make it shorter. The Boat That Rocked was originally supposed to hit U.S. theaters on August 28, but it has been pushed back to November. Focus president James Schamus stated, “It will be a shorter, leaner version…We think it is a real crowd-pleaser. We love a challenge, and we love working with Working Title.” Continue Reading

Sometimes I feel like the only person who actually ever “grew up” in LA. From the writer of American Psycho, The Rules of Attraction, and Less Than Zero, we get a dark, disturbing look at what it’s like to be in LA during the 80’s, in The Informers. With an all star cast consisting of Billy Bob Thornton, Kim Basinger, Mickey Rourke, Winona Ryder, Jon Foster, Amber Heard, and Rhys Ifans this movie is sure to be a huge hit.
