royal tenenbaums - raising some hell

the nightwatchman - "no one left":

man of the year - presidential debate

This is the best scene from the not so great, "man of the year" and it makes me yearn for truthful answers from those running the show.

3 new york city movies:

1. goodfellas - One of the best opening 15-20 minutes of any film I've seen and a street level mafia study. An all star cast of Robert DeNiro, Joe Pesci and Ray Liotta, among others.




2. annie hall: Anytime you think of woody allen you think of new york city....ok, you think of a few other things too but his movies are true old school nyc.




3. the pope of greenwich village - A fun movie with eric roberts as an off the wall young punk trying to make it big and taking his confused buddy, mickey rourke, along for the ride. It will make you want to take a trip to the village, buy a sandwich, hang out on a stoop and just people watch.

green day - "basket case"

red hot chilli peppers - "give it away"

"my cousin vinny" trailer and spoof:

I saw "my cousin vinny" again recently and had forgotten how funny it was.

fat boy slim - "weapon of choice"

beastie boys - "sabotage"

beck - "sex laws":

radiohead - "karma police":

A video about how bad karma can catch up with you.

the verve - "bitter sweet symphony":

This video was shot in a tough neighborhood and many of the people the lead singer runs into did not know they were going to be.

audioslave - "cochise"

Missed your morning caffeine? Try this...

the hives - "hate to say I told you so":

rage against the machine - "bulls on parade":

Put the kids to bed, it's "rage against the machine" and they're not very happy about the WTO.

zorba the greek - a philosophy for life:

zorba the greek: Zorba the greek is almost a philosophy on how to live life, more than a movie. Anthony Quinn, in his best role outside of La Strada, is electric and Alan Bates is great in an understated performance.

Here Zorba helps his introverted boss deal with tragedy in only a way "Zorba" could.

pearl jam - "masters of war"

socially conscious band - pearl jam:

Pearl Jam is one of my favorite bands and they happen to be very socially conscious and support many charities.

The first clip below is pearl jam performing the song "animal" live on stage.

This next video is a very funny play on the unique delivery of lead singer Eddie Vedder and what he might actually be saying.

socially conscious band - U2:

Bono and U2 in general are the first celebrities I think of when it comes to using their social status to bring attention to world issues. The following song and video was performed with "green day" and it was meant to remind people that the victims of hurricane katrina are still and will be hurting for a long time and not to forget about them....as they were initially.

animal activist - moby

Moby, a strong animal activist and a new york city resident, with Gwen Stefani in "Southside".
