Mr. Bond...

In an effort to sway our bias away from American pop culture music, here is a post about a movie.



According to this website the 23rd James Bond movie has been suspended indefinitely. Why?

"Due to the continuing uncertainty surrounding the future of MGM and the failure to close a sale of the studio, we have suspended development on 'Bond 23' indefinitely. We do not know when development will resume and do not have a date for the release of 'Bond 23,'"

Apparently MGM is low budget, can't afford to keep itself running, or what have you. Honestly I'm not very sad. The past two Bond movies (Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace) haven't really done anything for me. Daniel Craig just isn't Bond material. To me Pierce Brosnan will always be the original James Bond



and that's really only because he reminds me of esteemed Broadway producer Maxwell Sheffield.



It's kind of sad because the Bond franchise is the longest running film series in history.

Just Wright

I was surfing the world wide web the other other day and came across the movie trailer for Just Wright. Starring Queen Latifah, Paula Patton, and Common, this will be in a theatre near you May 14th.

This could turn out one of two ways. It could have the predictive plot that most Queen Latifah movies have and sometimes bad acting, but I'm not really worried about that (yes I am *cough*Common*cough*). OR, I could be so hypnotized by seeing Common with his shirt off and Dwyane Wade on the big screen that the $10 for the ticket and $15 for popcorn and drinks will be worth is. Either way, I'm still going to give a chance but not one the weekend because I want the discount ticket price. Check out the trailer below the jump!

This Week In Music...

Just wanted to check in and let you all know what I'm interested in purchasing this week that way you know that you might (or might not, but I still love you) see a review for it in the future.

Now I have to bat my eyelashes at my BF and throw hints at him that I need an iTunes giftcard, lol. More after the jump!

• Alvin and the Chimpmunks: The Squeakquel: I wanted to see this when it came out in theatres but never got around to it. I enjoyed the first movie (don't judge me) and heard through the grapevine that this one was cute too. Plus I want to see the Chimpettes sing "Single Ladies".
• New Amerykah Pt. 2: Return of the Ankh: The only Erykah Badu I currently own is Baduizm and that's a shame cause I love her. I was just watching Dave Chappelle's Block Party last night and it reminded me that this CD was coming out. I like the single she has out now "Window Seat" and knew I had to get this when she on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.
• Raymond v. Raymond: When I heard "Papers" I said "No Usher, try again." Then I heard "Hey Daddy" then "There Goes My Baby" then "Lil Freak" and decided I would give this one a try. His sixth studio album and critics are giving it good ratings so far, I'm looking forward to giving this one a listen.
