Entertainment Link-Off: Less Talk, More Action

It’s all about action this weekend at the box office. You can catch George Lucas’ passion project WWII flick Red Tails starring Terrence Howard and Cuba Gooding Jr. There’s also Gina Carano’s acting debut in Haywire. Of course, for those who are fans of seeing Kate Beckinsale with blue contacts and in a tight black corset outfit, Underworld: Awakening is at a theatre near you. The Underworld films have never been great, but somehow Kate Beckinsale does the trick when it comes to drawing me to the theatre, so let’s kick start the ELO with her.

After the jump, a SOPA infographic, a few movie trailers to see, news on some possible movie sequels, Chuck Norris may have ruined The Expendables, Rachel Bilson displays her rapping chops and you should join “The Bark Side”. Continue reading

Worst of Music: Keshia Chante – Table Dancing

This week’s Worst of Music doesn’t come from the usual suspects on the Billboard Hot 100. Instead, it comes courtesy the producers of Canada’s New Year’s Eve show from Niagara Falls. The first act of the night was R&B turned dance singer Keshia Chante. Good Canadian artist seldom have any trouble getting a break in the US market. However, there’s a reason that Keshia hasn’t gotten into the US and that’s evidenced by her most recent hit song Table Dancer. Continue reading

Entertainment Link-Off: What’s Old is New Again

It’s the second week of the new year and it doesn’t look like there are any significant movie release in theatres this weekend. Maybe a 3D re-release of Beauty and the Beast might be something of interest? Or not. Anyway, let’s kick off this entry with Rachel McAdams. She can still be seen in the latest Sherlock Holmes flick which is in theatres now.

After the jump, Elizabethtown is not a bad movie, Gina Carano kicks Channing Tatum’s ass, Community has another homage in the works, Michael Bay is trying to convince you to get the limited edition Transformers disc set, Wonder Girls are back with a new track and music video and finally, a look at some new year’s resolution fails.

This year represents the 50th year of Doctor Who. The show debuted back in 1963 and the Doctor has gone on over 200 adventures with 46 different companions in 11 different incarnations. But have you ever wondered what the Doctor has been up to over the course of the last 49 years? This infographic is the best chronicle I’ve seen of all of the Doctor’s adventures. Continue reading

Entertainment Link-Off: Saturday In The Park

It’s a quiet weekend in Hollywood. The only movies coming out this weekend are either on the small side or just plain awful. The Devil Inside had the biggest Friday box office this weekend but it’s probably not worth watching. The next three weeks make up for that with at least a couple big movies opening each weekend. But the surprisingly good Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol with Paula Patton is still #2 at the box office.

After the jump, another quick look back at 2011, the latest on some upcoming big releases, Barney Stinson actually goes on The Price Is Right and a real-life Ron Burgandy moment. Continue reading

Worst of Music 2011: Pitbull – Give Me Everything

Another year has come and gone. That means it’s time to name the worst song of 2011. There were a lot of worthy contenders. Rebecca Black looked like a strong contender with Friday. B.o.B’s Strange Clouds made a late year charge for the 2011 WoM. Frequent airplay of Maroon 5’s abomination Moves Like Jagger kept it right in the hunt all year. But in the end, there could be only one winner. The worst song of 2011 is Pitbull’s Give Me Everything. Continue reading

Entertainment Link-Off: Year’s End

It’s the holiday season and the new year is near! This will mark the last Entertainment Link-Off of 2011. It’s been a quiet week, so it’ll be fairly short. Fear not folks, lots more to come in 2012. Til then, let’s cap off the year with Rachael Taylor. She can be seen in the alien invasion flick The Darkest Hour. Judging from the word of mouth, the movie isn’t exactly a must-see.

After the jump, even Marvel lawyers don’t support mutants, some minor updates on upcoming films, a look at the top pirated TV shows and movies, and let’s find out what makes a true friend. Continue reading

Worst of Music Retrospective: DJ Earworm – United State of Pop 2011: World Go Boom

It’s that time of year again. DJ Earworm has mashed up the year’s top 25 songs into a mega-mix mashup for the United State of Pop 2011. This year’s is a pretty accurate representation of the year in music. It has a fast tempo, a driving beat, the lyrics are indecipherable and it’s generally painful to listen to. That’s not a shining endorsement of the song but it does sum up 2011 in music perfectly. Of the 25 songs the DJ Earworm uses, 15 are winners of the Worst of Music award. Continue reading

Worst of Music Retrospective: DJ McFLY – 2011: The Aftermash

Since we’re close to the end of the year, new song releases are thinning out. So I thought this would be a good time to post another year-end song mashup as a retrospective for the year that was in bad music. DJ McFLY did his own DJ Earworm style mashup of the top songs of the year according to the Billboard Hot 100 for 2011. He mashed-up 30 songs (and one remix) into his 2011: The Aftermash. Of those 30 songs, 19 of them were named the Worst of Music. Hit the jump for the song and a list of what’s mashed-up into it. Continue reading
