"Giving Up the Gun" by Vampire Weekend

This is a bizarre, yet strangely entertaining music video by Vampire Weekend.  (I was terribly wrong when I said they would be one-hit-wonders.  I'm sorry!)

Movie Tarts: November 2010

Here comes the holiday season, and with it comes all the movies that weren't quite ready for the summer movie season.


My Most Anticipated Movie this November is:  Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1, of course!  And this wasn't a clear forerunner for the most anticipated movie.  There are some particularly interesting movies this November. 

My Second Most Anticipated Movie this November is: 127 Hours
This movie looks intensely stressful! Which is weird because it's about a guy who is probably the opposite of stress.  Plus James Franco will really shine in this one.



Megamind - Well we know that Will Ferrell can make terrible movies, but I have a feeling this is not going to be one of them.  In an era of animation movies that are appealing to all ages, this one will fit right in.  But in a Will Ferrell kind of way.



Due Date - Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis.  And Jamie Fox. What a combo!  This is going to be so funny!


Morning Glory - This movie has a mix of actors with high caliber that will produce results.  Harrison Ford, Diane Keaton, the underrated Rachel McAdams, and many others.



The Next Three Days - I'm not sure about this one yet, but with Russell Crowe and Liam Neeson and 30 Rock's Elizabeth Banks, it will definitely be worth seeing.


Love and Other Drugs - This one is directed by Edward Zwick so you know it'll be good.  But it's a romantic comedy by Edward Zwick! And it stars Jake Gyllenhaal (one of my favorites) and Anne Hathaway (everyone's favorite).

 The King's Speech - It has all the ingredients to be good, so I assume it will be.

Favorite Movie Scene #3 - Donnie Darko

Donnie Darko is one of my all-time favorite movies.  This is a rather long excerpt from the movie, but the scene with Jim Cunningham (Patrick Swayze RIP) as a public speaker is one of my favorites from the movie.  Enjoy!  (Oh also, right at the end (at 5:12 in exactly) there's an F word for those that care)

Also, as a side note: Ashley Tisdale is in this scene.  She is the little girl that is worried about her sister's health.
