I don’t even understand what I just watched. But this song is awesome.
“Gold on the Ceiling” — The Black Keys
The new trailer for “Les Miserables.”
It looks so GOOD.
Nearly 10 years after the last film, “Men in Black 3” crawls into theaters, riding on the hopes of some leftover good will toward Will Smith and the “Men in Black” franchise.
However, “Men in Black 3” relies a little too heavily on nostalgia and the star power of its actors, introducing a weak plot, a weak villain and some cheap laughs.
Check out Arts & Entertainment Editor Hoai-Tran Bui’s review of Men in Black 3 starring Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones and Josh Brolin.
The official trailer for the Baz Luhrmann-directed adaptation of “The Great Gatsby.” The film stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, and resident Scene girl crush, Carey Mulligan.
Also note the epic song choices.
Finally got around to watching the SNL finale..

ALBUM REVIEW: Beach House - Bloom
There are almost too many bands these days that make lush, languid dream pop. However, tousle-headed twosome Beach House are currently sitting atop the ethereal throne, thanks to the release of their fourth album, Bloom. Baltimore natives Victoria Legrand and Alex Scally have perfected their formula of nostalgic, faraway tunes that blend seamlessly into one another, picking up where the last album (2010’s Teen Dream) left off.
Tracks like ‘Lazuli’ and ‘The Hours’ exemplify the growth of the band’s sound. ‘Lazuli’ unfolds over and over again, revealing different layers of addicting, beautiful melodies. ‘The Hours’ has a harmonic opening, reminiscent of ‘Because’ by the Beatles; it has sweet, looping electric ticks that would brighten up the even the sunniest days, but just enough reverb to give it a little bite.
‘Troublemaker’ has a haunting, carnival edge, serving up Beach House’s staple blend of the slightly off with the absolutely lovely. Lyrics like “In the night we sleep together/The walls are shaking in their skin/Does it become you troublemaker/Watch them unravel you” only add to the lingering, creepy edge.
The trick of Beach House’s music is its ability to seem simply and hazily mussed together, while a deeper listen reveals the intense production that goes into each song. Bloom is the perfect album for the upcoming sleepy summer days that turn into restless, youth-filled nights.

There’s a movie based on Battleship — so why not adapt any of these 12 board games as well?
We put together a dozen fake posters for board game movies we’d like to see — as well as plot summaries and casting suggestions for each flick. (For Connect 4: “In Connect III, Reg Caldwell pulled one last job and thought he was out of the life for good. He was wrong. Again. With only four bullets in the chamber, he takes on syndicate boss Milton Bradley (William Fitchner), who has kidnapped Caldwell’s sister. Luckily, sis (Gina Carano) is known to be pretty sneaky herself.”)
