‘Twilight: Eclipse’ Compared to Horribe Car Accident, But Better than ‘New Moon’

The third installment in Stephenie Meyer’s ridiculous “vampire” series hit theaters on Wednesday and in spite of my better judgment I went to go see it this weekend. Though I am in no way a fan of the series, I still chose to watch it. “Why would you subject yourself to such torture, Gabrielle?”...

Twilight Does it Again

The first teaser trailer for the latest movie in the watered down “vampire” series Twilight was released this week, and I must say, I was impressed.

Now that we’re officially done with 2009, we can look back at the year in music without sounding pretentious!
