Haha I saw that commercial too just before. I first thought, "wow selling out?! really?", but thought of some of the reasons, which you wrote before, and then said, "good for them"... Now if they chose the song for the commercial, that would have been something!

Hey Fluxes, thanks for the kind words! When I spoke with Rachael and the crew back in October, the doc was still for press eyes only. I just revisited the link I was sent but it seems the content has been moved. Rachael's PR guy, Jorge Cruz might know more. I'd head to the Trax website and reach out from there. Cheers.

Cool article! What's the name of the documentary that's coming out and when will it be out? There hasn't been a proper documentary for Chicago's hay day i feel like (or even Detroit for that matter). But nice ones about New York like, Maestro.

Boasts a highly impressive cast and contains some great touches, but it’s too long by a half hour and meanders severely in its second half. Nice review. Check out my review when you get the chance.

That is exactly the problem with this ad; through it, people are still viewing women as things to be desired. It is simply further objectification of the sort we should be done with by now. Time to start showing women in the media as whole human beings, not just objects of men's lust.

Do you have a feedburner feed? I don't trust Mr. Jobs.

Thanks for all your work I really appreciate it being a recent underground hip-hop convert I find your mix tapes refreshing and upbeat.

I walk past the mural outside Code Of Conduct every day on my way to work.

So very beautiful!

I'll have to make it a point to go to the other parts of the city to see the other ones he's done.

Thanks for this informative post!

2010-12-20T04:07:18.352-08:00

You don't have to ever have been a 10 year old boy to like Tron - I'm a 27 year old girl and I've loved the original since I can remember. I loved the new one, too. Seen it twice already, and I can't stop listening to the soundtrack, which is fantastic.

I'm sad critics are being so harsh toward it, but nearly every single bad review I've read has been written by someone who admits they haven't seen the original, or haven't seen it since the release. In my opinion, that makes their reviews completely invalid. Tron: Legacy is a pretty damn good sequel to the original Tron - it has all the same flaws, all of which I can overlook. I actually think the corny acting and slowness of the pacing are what give both Tron movies their bizarre charm. I'm quite satisfied with this movie, and I'm a very jaded moviegoer, so that's saying something.

As for the plot being simple, Massawyrm on Ain't It Cool News said it perfectly in his review:

"There is a basic axiom of storytelling that states that the higher the concept of your story, the simpler the elements of your story need to be. As complexity approaches infinity, the audience capable of wrapping their mind around it approaches zero, thus you need to do something to meet them halfway, especially when you are looking to expose as broad an audience as possible to some fairly high minded concepts. ...if your story is about a world of ones and zeroes, presenting physical representations of abstract concepts, while wrestling with an allegory for one of the greatest ethical social quandaries of the modern era – and you want to sell it to kids – then, yeah, your film needs to be a little lighter on story."

That said, I actually really dig the plot. Sci-fi techno philosophy for kids = awesome.

Thank you for the lovely photos - they're how I found your blog. Glad to see someone else liked the movie!
