HE-MAN AND THE MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE: VOLUME ONE

BIGGER IS BETTER

By JAN ROSENFELD

DVD_HemanVol1

There is only one context in which it is acceptable for an enormous white man to yell "I HAVE THE POWERRR!" and this is it. This 2003 Emmy Award-winning remake doesn't feel like Hollywood is gauging your childhood memories, but now all of the unintentionally hilarious dialogue is impossible to ignore. "My Doom Seeker has detected the crack!" Tri-Clops exclaims, to which Skeletor replies, "Now we know where to apply the pressure!" Awesome. The best part is the overwrought life lessons that run as 30-second segments after each episode. He-Man just threw somebody off a cliff, but damn it all if he doesn't look both ways before crossing the street.

ROTHBURY FESTIVAL POST 2

The anticipation behind the opening notes of an STS9 set has to be seen to be believed. The crowd is literally bubbling with energy, mostly directing it towards keeping the entire zoo of inflatable animals afloat on the surface of an ocean of people. Set against the backdrop of Sherwood Forest, the wooded area that separates the Ranch Arena from the two bigger stages, this is the Rothbury Festival's chance to show off the expensive lights which your $280 ticket presumably helped pay for.

Rothbury Music Festival: Post 1

I wish I could say I saw a couple more cities on my way to Rothbury, Michigan. We—Spencer, Mills, Maysa, Keith and myself—drove from Allston to Michigan in about 17 hours, passing through Cleveland, Detroit, Lansing and a couple other places along the way. After making it through a 20-hour bus ride in Argentina a few years ago, I've learned to appreciate all the things you see along the way during a road trip that you miss on a plane.

 


Fuck Michael Jackson

The guy could dance, hooked up with a couple of good producers, diddled little kids (allegedly, yeah right), and is now dead. Good riddance.
