Oh shit, ya heard right kids. SRO is gonna be down in Westwood all week getting our Film on. Why are we telling you this? Because not only are we forewarning you that we’re gonna put our “Film Critic” hats on and throw some cinematic opinions your way this week. We’re also giving you the chance to come down and join us for a flick or two. Oh WHAT!?!
For the past few years, we’ve been attending the L.A. Film Festival watching various films and covering the pertinent music video showings. This year will be no different, as we’ll be there in full effect (most likely running late for each screening). Also as with each year, we encourage you to come out and support the directors and videos playing, as well as chat us up, high five us, punch us, buy us a few drinks or all of the above.
Not sure where the internet is going to weigh in on this new DCFC album yet, but if it’s anywhere on the side of decent, I’ll be up in arms and mystified. I realized that not everyone has had the pleasure of listening to them since before this century began. A lot of people don’t even know that they have any albums besides Plans. Both of these things are a shame because most of their best music was made prior to that album. So in an attempt to help out the lazy and uniformed about DCFC’s back catalogue, I’m going to give you my ‘expert’ opinion on the Top 10 Death Cab for Cutie songs of all time. Listen up.
VBS.tv is full of awesome programming. All you really need to know is that it’s an offshoot of Vice Magazine. Enough said? Well how about their creative director being none other than Spike Jonze. Sold yet? Anyway, it’s been around for years and they have collected/commissioned some of the most informative and hilarious video material on the net. The only problem with it is that it’s become a massive collection that might be a little intimidating for the newly initiated. If you haven’t been following their programming from day one, you probably have no idea where to start or what’s good and what’s great. So, SRO has decided to help out. We will try and be your TV guide for VBS.tv and steer you in the direction of some of their best content and also give you an idea about what you are in store for.
As if you didn’t know, we’re somewhat fans of nudity. Not just any nudity, but quality nudity used in the correct manner. Take “Ain’t No Easy Way Out” for example. In fact, that’s our perfect example. Nudity in music videos isn’t new, but it isn’t very popular. The most hardcore/best video we’ve seen includes nudity, but only because it includes drugs, violence, sex and the like, so it goes with the territory. Which leads us to “Yeah Yeah” by Body Rox.

Wow, it hurts that it won't be out for another year. But we'll take it as a vote of confidence that Spike Jonze's version of Where The Wild Things Are is gonna be phenomenal. Check out the interview. [Ain't It Cool News]
- #Looks like Rivers and his band of merry men have realized that they've hit rock bottom. Looks like it's time to get an old friend back to help their cause. Guess who? [Slashfilm]
- #We're so glad that someone has the balls (and most especially the mind) to recognize a Doucher when he sees one. Not to mention our glee at his breaking down the species altogether. [POTW]
- #It's about damn time L.A. in film got some props thrown its way. It's unfortunate that it took its own paper to do it. It's also unfortunate that Crash is on the list. Why lord, why? [LA Times]
