I just got done watching the movie Thirteen and it was pretty much one of the most intense movies I have ever seen. I don't want to do a review right now because I think I need some time to mull this one over but, as the end credits roll, I found myself thinking that I knew the perfect song that should be playing over them: "Breath Me" by Sia. It's a dark, intense, and profoundly beautiful song, but it is cathartic at the same time.

I don't know what it is about Sia Furler that always gets me. She has a kind of breathy voice and she doesn't enunciate well; two qualities that don't usually do it for me. But everything I've ever heard from her (she often sings for my favorite band Zero 7) is goddamn beautiful and sexy. Do yourself a favor and listen to this:

Fucking FOX Network

So I just found out a couple minutes ago that a second season of "The Loop" ran on FOX this summer. Even if it's not the greatest sitcom ever, it's still probably the best thing on TV in the summer. The first season that ran last summer was most definitely entertaining. Plus, it's one of the few shows out there that isn't set in L.A. or New York, the two most fucking self-absorbed cities in the world, or about cops or doctors. SO pissed I missed that, I'll have to wait for the DVD.

Speaking of kickass shows not set in L.A or NYC or about cops or docs, I just got the DVD of the first two seasons of "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia," and so far, it definitely is as funny the second time through as it was the first. I even watched some scenes from the original pilot (original title:"It's Always Sunny on Television," set in LA, ironically, and about actors rather than pub owners) on the DVD and I am glad they changed the setting and tweaked the names a bit. I think the bar location has been a lot more interesting than the whole struggling-actors-in-LA angle would have been. Third season starts on Sept 13th on FX. Everyone should be watching this show.
