Avengers + Other Musings

As seen in Imax 3D
1Squarepusher
Ufabulum

The film: A wondrous two hours of fun, especially since they make Hawk
Eye and Black Widow relevant. *The album* - really digging this dude's
helmet on Dark Steering, this is an album I've underestimated.
2Rammstein
Mutter

The film - For the first time ever the Hulk actually feels human, even though
he's mostly CGI. Banner's fear at turning into a green behemoth is neigh
palpable, and it could be said that he steals the entire film. *The album* -
incredibly close to 5'ing this, it's just great through and through. Spun this
so many times when I was taking German (RIP my college education).
3Wodensthrone
Curse

The film - Robert Downey Jr. once again has that incredibly snarky mouth,
but in the scenes he's often on of the more relatable because of it. Here's a
man who does what he can, and often achieve what other's deem
impossible; and yet he's still human. *The album* started anew my love of
rather atmospheric bm, it's something that I never thought I would be into.
4The Great Old Ones
Al Azif

The film - Samuel L. Jackson was, as always, himself. I think it worked to
have him as Nick Fury, and the comments about him not truly being in
charge but rather a puppet (thereby diminishing his role in the film) clearly
did not listen to his lines later on in the film. *The album* is atmospheric bm
from France, all about the Lovecraft mythos. Debut just released, and so far
I'm really digging it. Little info to be found on the band though, they're bio-
less.
5 Brumal
Epoch

The film - I normally don't enjoy superhero films, with this one though it was
like seeing the comics come to life; this really might be one of the better,
true to their own nature superhero films ever made (and I don't mean in a
serious aspect like the Dark Night). *The album* is melodic death metal,
and for a three track EP it's not terrible. There's a song or two on youtube,
the guys voice could get a bit old I imagine.
6Various Artists
Halo 2 Original Soundtrack-Volume 1

The film - This movie was the first recent film in 3D that I've seen and I must
say that 3D might actually be viable, it looked quite good. It helped that the gimmicky uses were mainly put
on hold here, sometimes the 3D was even
subtle. *The album* is a goddamn 5, so full of memories and emotions.
Love this release, also has Breaking Benjamin's BEST track on it.
7Soundtrack
Resident Evil: Afterlife

The film - Did I mention Scarlet Johansson is in this? Love her looks. *The
album* just needs some tracks that are longer, but as a stand alone this is
the best the series has done since the debut soundtrack.
