Was Pearl Jam intentionally censored during it’s internet broadcast from Lollapalooza on Sunday? The fans and the band seem to think so. Although AT&T claims that it was a mistake, I find it odd myself that it was a song containing anti-Bush lyrics. For more information, you can read the full article here. I find it interesting that AT& T is claiming that it was a mistake, when the song that was omitted was the one that had anti-Bush lyrics. The song was Daughter and some of the lyrics were added or changed to reflect and anti-Bush sentiment. You can find those lyrics in that article. So what do you think? Honest mistake, or was Pearl Jam purposely censored. If you think it was on purpose, do you think it was AT&T’s decision or do you think the content monitor was overzealous in their duties? I’d like your opinion on this one.

I have to say, I anticipated a much better movie. Things were left out as always when a book is adapated for the silver screen, but there were things that were completely changed from the storyline. I’ve long been frustrated with movies that have done this, and this was no exception. Truthfully, I had expected this movie to be on par with Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal, but Hannibal Rising wasn’t even close to the same quality. I’d watch it again, perhaps as part of a Hannibal Lecter movie marathon, but I certainly won’t spend the money to purchase it or rent it again.

I’d give this 2 out of 5 stars.

Somehow, I am not surprised at this article found on Yahoo! Entertainment News. Now, I will admit, while I’m not a voracious fan of his, I do on occasion enjoy some of his music. Not a whole lot of it, but some of it. For the most part, it’s a song here and a song there.But for some reason, to my notion, it makes sense that someone who would write the kind of songs Manson does, would do something like not honor a partnership agreement. However, what makes me absolutely sick is the implication that Manson actually did spend money for the alleged items. The Chinese skeleton was particularly disturbing. To say that purchasing such an item would be crossing the line, and then to correct the notion that the skeleton was a girl, and stating that it was in fact a boy, makes me wonder. It makes me wonder a lot.

I got this movie from Blockbuster Online. I wasn’t impressed. If I am able to start reading a book or making blog posts and not want to look back at the TV screen until the movie is almost over, then it’s not a good movie. There was nothing that caught my attention in that movie. I like to see the live action versions of comic book movies, but this one just didn’t appeal to me at all. I truthfully wouldn’t recommend V for Vendetta.I give it 1 out of 5 stars.
