Movies

It has been a summer of big budget action and effects, so Alex, Dan, and Jeff take a step back from all the blockbusters to highlight a much smaller release. Australian crime drama Animal Kingdom features no big American stars or multi-million dollar CGI, but could it be one of the best experiences of the summer?

The trailer for Darren Aronofsky's newest film, Black Swan has hit the web. What do the guys think?

Far too many people do not understand that alcohol, drugs, and driving DO NOT MIX. The message is simple guys: Drinking and Driving? Over the Limit? Under Arrest....don't put yourself or others in danger. Law enforcement officials will be out in force all over the country from August 25th through September 6th, cracking down on drunk drivers. Beyond putting your life at risk, you could cost yourself a bundle of time and money: jail time, the loss of your driver's license, higher insurance rates, and dozens of other unanticipated expenses from attorney fees, other fines and court costs, car towing and repairs, lost time at work, etc. The worst/best part of drinking and driving is that it can be avoided so easily. You can still go out and have fun, just plan ahead: if you are going to drink, designate a driver, call a taxi, use mass transit, or find some kind of sober ride program.
