The Princess and The Frog: If Only Disney Wasn’t Racist

January 9, 2010

I went to Disneyland for the first time last fall. It was my birthday, and one of Disney’s perks is they give you a free ticket on your birthday. My girlfriend is a Disney fiend and she convinced me instead to get a season pass. So, like with most things, when your girlfriend suggests you [...]

Best Movie of 2009 Poll

January 8, 2010

The Golden Globes are coming January 17th and the Academy Awards won’t be far behind. So obviously it is time for everyone to name they’re favorite film of the year. Black Beard busted out his favorite of the decade. I’ve refrained. I just can’t think of one film among all the great ones of the [...]

Black Beard Reviews the Best of the Naughts: Ha Jin

January 7, 2010

I’m what I like to call a petty genius: I exhibit the idiosyncrasies of a great mind, without, as of yet, a brilliant body of work to justify the unqualified title. It is said that Einstein functioned on such a different mental level that he had difficulty with simple mathematics. Well, I crank out 2,000 [...]

Black Beard Reviews the Best of the Naughts: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

January 5, 2010

A Young Girl’s Education in Love and Life

An Education Movie Poster

What do you do if you see a 16-year-old girl standing alone in the rain? If you said pick her up, then 1. You’re a pervert and 2. You’ve stumbled upon the plot of An Education. Sure there are other scenes and other plot lines but for the purposes of my joke we’re going to [...]

The New(est) Islands Record: Vapours

January 4, 2010
Islands Vapours Album

For bands in the all too broad category of Indie Rock, especially the ones your niece has heard of, musical content has taken a Chevy Suburban-sized back seat to looking sharp and sexy in a sleeve-rolled plaid button down. Even the drummers give a commendable attempt at intellectuality… intellectity… trying to look smart.

That said, the new [...]

Black Beard Reviews the Best of the Naughts: This American Life

January 3, 2010
This American Life NPR

I was going to write about something else this weekend, but when I saw Red Beard’s posting about his top five television shows of the previous decade, it occurred to me that I should produce my own top five list of some sort.  My first inclination was to write out the top five things everyone [...]
