Best Movies of 2007:
Transformers: One of the best movie adaptations made to date… Hands down. The naysayers cried fowl but this was simply the coolest movie of the summer. The Robots were kick ass, the cinematography great and the acting pretty damn good. If you haven’t seen this film yet then you’re missing out.
August Rush: This has to be the most heart warming story and movie of the year and the best of its kind in a long time. With great music, great acting and a moving story this is truly a wonderful flick.
300: Full of chest pounding, heart thumping, throat slashing action, this was one of the best films of the year. Lacking sure in the plot, but makes up for it in action, cinematography and visuals. Again if you haven’t seen this yet… get off your ass!
Knocked Up: Probably the funniest movie of the year, this made my sides hurt and was truly a great watch. A great adult comedy, which is a refreshing break from all the not so funny teen comedies that seem to be mass-produced in Hollywood these days. With tons of laughs and great acting it’s a great flick.
Best T.V. Shows of 2007:
Burn Notice: This little known show, airing on the USA network, is one of the best and most original things to hit the boob tube in a long time. With some great acting, lots of clever laughs and a bit of action, this spy show shines. You really must check it out.
Pushing Daises: I had my qualms about this show when I first heard about it but after sitting down and watching it I have changed my mind totally. This is a great show, who’s acting is great and plot lines very entertaining, but the crowning jewel has to be the dialog; some of the best dialog writing on TV right now, its just so snappy and well developed.
Heroes: I’m a Heroes junkie, sure this season wasn’t as good as the first but its still some of the best stuff on the TV. Great characters and great plots/ stories for the most part Heroes never disappoints.
Avatar the Last Airbender: Yeah yeah, it’s a kid show… right? No! This is a great show and is often over looked; with a great story line and moving characters it’s a fantastic show. And with fresh and aw-inspiring animation this show’s a great little gem.
Journeyman: I also had my doubts about this show, it seemed to be a re-hashing of the old 1980’s Quantum Leap but its so much better and so much more intense. The stories and concepts in this show rock and hit hard, so take a look at this one.
Best Video Game of 2007:
Assassins’ Creed: Never has stabbing people been so much fun (at least for those of us without troubling mental issues). Running about stabbing, clubbing, stealing and generally being a bad ass, Assassin’s Creed gives you all the action you need while not skimping on the story.
Most over-hyped, over pressed and generally sickening things or events of 2007:
The Iphone: Talk about over hype and over saturation, I couldn’t go three minutes with out hearing some thing about this little piece of crap. Its not worth all the hype it was given maybe its just me.
The Wii: I’m not seeing what the big deal about this thing is; I truly can’t figure it out. It some how is either beyond me or beneath me… I guessing it’s the later. I haven’t played it yet but I am tired of hearing about it and kind of wish it would go a way.
Hurricane Karenna: I know what your thinking, your thinking A) what…? He’s like three years off on this and B) How could this be a negative issue…? Well that’s the point really, this damn storm was like 3 or 4 years ago and yet I can’t turn around with out hearing all the BS bout it. If you or some one you know was directly involved or affected by this, then I feel for you, I really do; but if another B list celebrity comes at me for cash for it again I’m going to puke in my shoes. I’m simply tired of hearing about it.
American Idol: What a piece of crap this was this year… I mean wow. Idol has gone down hill pretty fast and pretty steep as of late but this last year was amazingly stupid, poorly conceived and generally un-entertaining. Maybe, just maybe… we as a nation and a society have beaten all there is out of this particular dead horse and should move on and that goes double for the piece of shit they call “Dancing with the Stars”!
