Her self-titled disc was nowhere near as awful as the press it got. There's a few gems on that record ("Red Light Fever", "Extraordinary", "Friend Of Mine"); that said, "Somebody's Miracle" was a trainwreck. Can't wait to hear her new stuff, here's hoping she drops the Maroon 5 wannabes that made up her terrible backing band.

Jesus, this lightness of being sure is unbearable!

I always thought the rapey music video director was supposed to be a thinly veiled portrait of Brett Ratner.

I'm holding out for the inevitable WATERSHIP DOWN remake.

Am I the only one who thinks this also doubles as a great critique on the media/blogger coverage of Heigl?

Duh Aficionado Magazine just became Bummer Weekly. Congrats on a great run, Lindsay Lindsayism. May you never have to write about animals with Paul Rudd fetishes that are all hopped on salvia bouncing on trampolines ever again (that is, of course, unless you want to!). K.I.T., indeed!

The blame for the film's B.O. failure lands squarely on the shoulders of the marketers. They should've positioned it more as a buddy comedy (McBride and Ferrell are hilarious together in it) and less of an action/adventure pic. They should've excised Anna Friel from the marketing in general; she's super hot but basically worthless in this.
That said, LOTL is destined to go down as a cult classic. I freaking loved it.

That wasn't even a firecracker. There's nothing more disappointing than when people confuse firecrackers with bottle rockets.

I never thought I'd see a video like the one of the little girl in the classroom here on Videogum. Maybe my all-time favorite thing I've seen here on V-gum, especially because it lives in a post about Voices That Care. I remember buying the cassingle b/c Cindy Crawford "sang" on it.

I've never understood your hatred for Gwynnie. She looked FINE last night. Yeah, her legs were a little shiny, but so what?
And re: SKY CAPTAIN -- if I had a video store, I would file that movie under "Interesting Failures."

The blame for this films B.O. failure lands squarely on the executives who didn't get the joke when one of them said "Ha, I'm sure that next we'll re-make Land of the Lost, or something."
