Josh's Jukebox: ABBA

the song of the day is 'the songs of the day' abba remix

'Argo' ****

'argo' the based on a true story about the rescue of 6 americans during the carter administration is really really good. we know how it will turn, out but i now say the brilliant, director ben affleck keeps us engrossed and on the edge of our seats throughout. the cast is one of the best ensemble casts of the year. special kudus to alan arkin a supporting actor nominee potential.

a potential best picture nominee i urge you to see it. and congrats mr. affleck. you are three for three.
it is the possible winner of that roque oscar.

So Now What....

well i am pretty well on the mend so i can finally return to my passion...going to the movies. so today i begin with 'argo' as it may well be the first to disappear as it's been our the longest. so i'll see you tomorrow with more. but i leave you with this: music

Josh's Jukebox: 'Holding Out for a Hero'

'glee' has shown new life this season. the musical productions are as good if not better than the past. 

with the exception of the bulimia crap, a horrible example to young girls, the plots have been fun and some bittersweet....more to come.

I'm Back....

i had major surgery after months of pain from cancer. i am now in recovery mode and hope to start here fresh and anew....

From the Vault: 'Release Me'

streisand's new cd release is not exactly new. barbra went t the vault picked out some 12 cuts she did not think worthy of release at the time of the recording. but what the hell. need to add a room on to the home or whatever and feeling a bit lazy and not in the mood to record well just go to the vault. a bit lazy? really lazy!

OK So Where the Hell Was Barack Last Night?

barack lost the debate on the economy. probably the most important of the three. what the f**k happened to him. who was inhabiting his body. this was sad. pitiful. discouraging. two to go. he needs to redeem himself. he better redeem himself! Oy.

'666 Park Avenue' Sucks. That's Being Kind.

if the first episode is an indication of where this show is going it will be going going gone soon. it in a word was a BORE.

it's grade? F. really F. F- if there is an F-.

the worst yet! and i really wanted to like this series. really i did.

'Glee' Season 4 Is Adrift in Medocrity Since It Graduated Some of It's Best Talent

'glee' is in free fall. since graduation last spring the choir room now seems hollow and empty. and lifeless. with rachel finn, quinn and santana gone all we have are empty tables and empty chairs. where the hell is naya rivera and diane argon? these two are a major losses and makes the show a lot less gleeful. at this point i give it a more than generous c-

kate hudson? okay i am not a fan so when she is the best thing about the new season all bets are off. her character is miserable, her acting almost passable and with great amounts of editing her dancing is well...good. no more no less than good. i mean bebe neuwirth she ain't!

lea michelle is best off being in ny away from the mess in mckinley high. she's got a hot cute talented guy swooning over her. her best friend kurt joined her in search of his own dreams so now they are besties and roomies. but she does have to deal with ms hudson. all those who srtrive in the theater know it will be hard...damn hard. there will be more downs than ups. heartache and heartbrake are par for the course. many can do it and succeed. but can't you at least want your teachers to be better than you are. ms hudson is not better than lea michelle. she doesn't come close to lea michelle. and i ain't thinking ms michelle is on her way to an oscar. i'm jusy saying she'll get there faster than kate hudson. and yet she is the best thing in this new season. how can this be? i do not know. it boggles the mind.

kate

lea wins hands down.

i'll keep trying to watch 'glee'. at least a few good musical numbers will show up. they always do.
