Trailer Watch: COMPLIANCE

I live for movies that make me feel uncomfortable. ( See "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Movie" list for reference) I know that sounds weird. But I always appreciate a fearless director/writer and an actor who gives such a convincing performance.

That being said, I MUST see Compliance.

I love going to the Arclight theater in Hollywood because (1) it's the best theater ever and (2) they always have really cool artist showcase. And last month they had a dope exhibit from a Belgium born artist named Anja Van Herle. Love Love Love.

When the day comes for me to move into my loft in Downtown LA, better believe I will have one of these gracing my wall.

What a great birthday present

Yesterday CBS films released the first trailer for Seven Psychopaths directed by one of my favorite writer/directors Mr. Martin McDonagh (of In Bruges). This is going to be one dark, twisted, f*cked up movie and I can't wait!



Starring Colin Farrell, Woody Harrelson, Sam Rockwell, Christopher Walken, Tom Waits, Gabourey Sidibe, Abbie Cornish, and Olga Kurylenko. The movie 
opens in domestic movie theaters Oct. 12

New Music Obsession: CHILDISH GAMBINO

"Realist motherf*cker in the game like Tron." ... enough said.

Call him what you want...Childish Gambino, Donald Glover, Troy Barnes (if you're a fan of Community) whatever. All I know is that I'm calling him the sh*t...period.

Quick back story for those of you who aren't too familiar with Mr. Gambino. He got his start as a writer on 30 Rock (Tina Fey is his homegirl) he's apart of the sketch group Derrick Comedy, and he stars on the hit cult show Community. I mean, he's kind of a big deal.

He droped his first record as Childish Gambino back in 2008 then followed it up with 2 mixtapes in 2010 (I Am Just a Rapper and I am Just a Rapper 2) Then finally in 2011 he made it legit, releasing Camp, his official debut.

His word play is ridic!

"These black kids want somethin' new, I swear it,

somethin' they wanna say but couldn't cause they embarrassed."

I'm obsessed with this video..."Heartbeat"

Obsessed with this album.

and this mixtape.
