...NBC’s Comedy department so tragic: They actually think this stuff is funny. At this point, I’d be more entertained if Dick Wolf came up with a “Law and Order: INS,” or if they put a laugh track on “The Apprentice.” For anyone who liked “Vanilla Sky,” or Kevin Smith movies, don’t watch this either. Preserve whatever (if any) positive memories you have of Jason Lee. I can’t come up with...
...fantastic lines, like when West creepily whispers, “While you’re watching, WATCH HIM,” or when he acutely points out that you can’t smoke weed if you don’t have cash, but on the whole, the track quickly grows stale. Luckily, the video is a different story. Hype Williams, known for his work on the film “Belly,” (which runs like an exceedingly long music video), really captures Kanye’s overstated elegance. Pin-up girls and West’s violent...
...opinion on Episodes I and II had divided die-hard fans from casual movie thrill-seekers. Yet, when asked about the voluminous Star Wars novels, comics, and video games, so loved by the fan community, he claims that they’re “not something that we track all that often.”So, if he’s not a slick, Hollywood soul-sucker, and he’s not a rabid fanatic, what sort of species is McCallum? He’s a rare chimera: someone who fervently believes that the films are legitimate...

Their album, “Painted and Patient,” echoes such progressive metal acts as Incubus, Tool, and the Deftones in guitar sounds, rhythms, and dynamic contrasts. The album’s stand-out track “Still Life in Dexedrine,” serves up a chilly nu-metal acoustic-rock vibe, and a pleasant circular vocal melody. But most of the album’s songs lack the focused, melodic hooks that have made their influences so successful. The album starts with...
...they are only two steps removed from the alt-metal stylings of Tool. Ironically, the only cut on the album that doesn’t quite work is “The Farmer’s Hotel”: the sole song attributed to both Berman and Malkmus. The track suffers from both songwriters’ characteristic excesses: Malkmus’ directionless guitar noodling and Berman’s oppressive verbosity. Luckily, the band is stacked with enough talent to keep these two honest, and missteps are few and far between. “Tanglewood” is a focused...
