A Film For The Future

Sorry for not posting last night but I went to dinner at Morton's Steak House with the 'Rents and was in a food coma when I got back.

Here is a bunch of stuff you already read yesterday...

It's my birthday too, yeah! Peabs and my blog have the same birthday

Stereogum interviewed the Beta Band. Sweet. Also, peep the new Moz video. Effing Real Player only shows me a frame every 30 seconds so I haven't seen the full thing but I get the drift. grumblegrumblegrumble

Here's a Moz review from Las Vegas. [via Productshop NYC]

Shout outs from Italy. So Best.

LeBron wins Rookie of the Year. Does this make anyone else mad? I thought Amare Stoudamire won the award last year over Yao Ming because his club made the Playoffs and Yao's did not. So shouldn't 'Melo win that shit this year? Hello?
Don't even get me started on the complete and utter travesty that was Hubie Brown winning Coach of the Year over Jerry Sloan. Sloan had one of the worst rosters in the league and took them to within two games of the Playoffs. It takes more than one hand to count all the lottery picks on the Grizzlies. They SHOULD HAVE made the Playoffs. What gives?

God help us all. Peter May turns his ever critical eye towards the C's el foldo the other night, and for once, he's so money.

Paul Pierce lamented that the Celtics' "true colors as a young team" showed in that fourth quarter, the one in which Indiana outscored the Celtics, 38-21, outrebounded them, 13-5, outshot them, 61 percent to 33 percent, and had no turnovers to Boston's two. "We lost our composure," he said.
Here's who was on the floor for Boston when, as Pierce noted, the Celtics' "true colors" showed as a young team: Pierce, Chucky Atkins, Walter McCarty, Ricky Davis, and Mark Blount. That's four-fifths of the starting five. That's not a particularly young team and it's not a particularly inexperienced team. Four of those five have been to the conference finals.
But it was a unit that certainly did lose its composure, no question, in the face of an onslaught led by Fred Jones, Jonathan Bender, Croshere, Anthony Johnson, and Al Harrington. That's one-fifth of the Indy starting five -- and only because Harrington got the starting nod last night over the suspended Ron Artest. Croshere didn't even play in Game 1.

That L is squarely on my favorite basketball player on the Earth's shoulders. C'mon PP. Get it together.

Coach K's quandry: Try and get Luol Deng to stay in school or try or get Shaun Livingston to enroll in school. At best, he can have only one. Most likely he'll lose them both.

Ruh-roh.

Did Bill have an unfair advantage on The Apprentice? Page Six thinks so:
Meanwhile, "The Apprentice" winner Bill Rancic may have had an unfair advantage over his competition courtesy of Trump-eteer Carolyn Kepcher's "raging crush" on him, a source claims.
Though the Trump lieutenant is married with two kids, she has been spotted fawning over Rancic all over town. Last Tuesday, the duo shared a lingering hug at the entrance of the dining room at Fresco.
Later, at a party hosted by "Apprentice" contestant David Gould, curvy Carolyn was acting up with Rancic again. "She could not stop hugging him all night - she drools over the guy," our spy reported. "It was a reunion, but they had only seen each other the day before." The two moved on together to Meatpacking District hotspot P.M.

Frank is back! Donnie Darko to be re-released in theatres as a Director's Cut featuring an extra 21 minutes of footage and new visual effects and music. Score! Jake & Maggie Gyllenbest = Best. Movie. Ever. Peep the trailer here.

I'm taking an Excel class today, so try and keep any breaking news from happening until I get home. Thanks.

This is a film about the future / it is the future of your life
You think it's certain / but nothing is certain
No nothing is certain / no nothing is certain, no!
