Entertainment Buzz: Cars, Guns, and Scarlett Johansson?

- Earlier this week Steroyd Floyd linked me to the exclusive music video for the upcoming Speed Racer film by those dudes that made the Matrix. The song is a play off the memorable Speed Racer main title entitled "Go Speed Racer Go" performed by Ali Dee and the Deekompressors. The video is a trip in itself, but watch it and see what you think. And if you make it all the way to the end, then you have balls. And what's with the Japanese and Mexican verses?

- So Scarlett Johansson has an album coming out soon entitled Anywhere I Lay My Head, featuring a bunch of Tom Waits covers. Her single is called "Falling Down," but the real question is, does anyone really care?

- The release of the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto IV is only a couple of days away, and gamers everywhere are going BaLlZ to teh WaLLz over this shit. I've never been a huge GTA fan, probably because I never actually owned a PS2 until Guitar Hero (hey all I played was Smash and dota for like 6 years), and the thought of stealing a car and running people over with it wasn't exactly my idea of the coolest thing ever, but I must say that I am pretty excited for this game. The trailer itself makes me wanna jump in and play, and then the inclusion of online multiplayer elements is really intriguing. And yeah I'm getting it for 360 because I want it at release and I want achievements (+1 for Mira Mesa, bunch of 360 owners).

Haiku You Ku We all Ku

I guess you could say I'm the "poet"or the "activist" of the group or am I just thinking highly of myself? Well anyways at first with every post I wanted to throw a poem in there somewhere, but writing a full blown poem at times is rather tedious. Therefore, I think I'm going to just do haiku's because there way more simple. If i remember correctly haiku's contain 17 syllables with three lines of 5,7,5 and from what i understand they don't have to be in that particular order.

My suggestion to my fellow cool kids is to post a haiku of your own about something random or about one of our homies. Especially if you have nothing better to write about, but it's just a suggestion
