Is it possible for a man to be entirely evil?
In many ways this is the question that director Oren Moverman poses in Rampart. It is a question that I still find myself unable to answer. Woody Harrelson’s intense portrayal of corrupt LAPD officer and Vietnam War veteran David Brown does not make it easy to come up with an answer.

SSX, one of the most renowned arcade snowboarding games of all time, returns to your console with plenty of speed, frustration and a ton of dubstep.
The SSX series flourished over the previous decade amid a gaming environment with an intense over-saturation of extreme sports games. That time has passed and EA has revived the series with some pretty strong results.

Tyler, the Creator and his cohorts have taken over The Internet.
That’s the name of the newest project to come from hip-hop collective Odd Future and Purple Naked Ladies marks the first album to be officially released under their own record label. It is a collaboration between two of the gang’s producers, Syd Tha Kid and Matt Martians. Martians is also a member of producing duo The Jet Age of Tomorrow who have released two free mixtapes of primarily instrumentals. Still, this is really the first time that these two members have taken a more primary role in the group.

Get all of those Harry Potter jokes out of your system right now becausee whether or not you associate Daniel Radcliffe with the teenage wizard does not matter with regards to his newest film. The Woman in Black will probably scare those fond memories of Hogwarts right out of all you Muggles.

When the words “true story” are associated with any film, particularly one with the name of a historical figure in the title, I tend to be overcome with weariness. The fear with biopics of this nature is that they are going to be completely dry and run on for an excessive amount of time. Sometimes watching a biopic feels more like reading a textbook than experiencing actual entertainment.
Luckily, Simon Curtis’s My Week with Marilyn does not fall into this nasty trap that similar movies often find themselves in.

If you are unfamiliar with the Old Republic series, the first game Knights of the Old Republic single-handedly established Bioware as a best next-generation role-playing-game developer. They then proceeded to make such well regarded games as Mass Effect and Dragon Age. Although these other games are great, fans demanded another Old Republic game and Bioware finally answered those demands.

Looking back at 2011, it was generally a strong year for new music, but most of all it marked a time when rap was brought back to from the brink of self-destruction.
Looking at the best-selling acts of the last few years, you might say that rap never went anywhere, but although rap has been around for decades, it was turning into a genre that lacked any kind of creativity, whether it be lyrically or in production. This last year a new breed of rap entered the ears of the masses thanks to the new free Internet mix-tape scene, giving all kinds of different rappers a way to get their music heard.

If any of you fine readers out there are like me, then you are probably a bit tired of the traditional style of Christmas music and movies. Sure, they have their place, but for some reason many people seem to hold them to a different standard than regular music and movies.
This is probably related to holiday cheer and all that trash. I say trash, but I do love the holidays and am here to spread cheer though some alternative movies and music for this holiday season.
