Alexander – Oliver Stone – Movie Review
Very interesting analasys of Alexander. I liked the movie more than i thought I would, though I thought the part of Jolie was a little odd.
Year: 2005
Million Dollar Baby
Saw Million dollar baby this weekend and it is indeed a Masterpiece ! Excellent performances by Clint Eastwood and Hilary Swank, who (in the movie ;)) develop a father – daughter relationship. Also the interaction and dialogue between Morgan Freeman and Eastwood is wonderful. One of the best movies I saw lately and deserves every credit it gets, it even scores 8.4 on IMDB. Plenty of links to reviews on the page at Rotten Tomatoes:
Warren Haynes Compilation
Posted before on Mr. Warren Haynes, one of my favourite guitar players and one of the hardest workers in the business. This is a must have for any Haynes fan ;).

Fun article on the Ipod. I must admit I love mine too, but not as bad as the writer of the piece below :).

Apparently Microsoft is getting nervous because of the success of Firefox ! I seriously doubt IE7 will be any better than IE6, unless they totally rewrite it from scratch…
Sideways
Watched this movie this week, thought it was really good and at least different from much of the Hollywood stuff that gets released. Especially liked the excellent acting performance by Paul Giamatti. Reminds me of the great job he did in American Splendor. I linked to the review at MovieGazette, which describes the movie pretty good.
USATODAY.com – Podcasting
Two articles on podcasting are now on the USA Today site:
USATODAY.com – Podcasting: It’s all over the dial
And
I usually listen to Adam Curry’s Daily Source Code and Reel Reviews. Sometimes Coverville and from time to time to the Dawn and Drew show. There is some good stuff out there, but only 24hrs a day to listen ;).
Dead at Etree
Listening to the new JGB releases (see previous post) renewed my interested in the Grateful Dead. It was quite a while since I listened to a few complete shows, but I did so over the weekend. Got some very nice stuff from etree.org. Especially check out the ‘Charlie Miller’ seeds, they’re excellent ! There’s also a wealth of shows available at archive.org, in lossless and mp3 format, ready for use on your Ipod ;).
