Pretty in Pink - o filme

Aqui está um teste infalível para saber se você viveu e curtiu mesmo os anos 80.

Por um acaso, você assistiu ao filme “Pretty in Pink” que em português foi traduzido como “A Garota Rosa Shocking”?

Esse filme traz diversos elementos relacionados aos anos 80 de maneira sincera, sem pieguices ou exageros, principalmente pelo fato de que foi filmado na época (o que já ajuda muito). E isso, faz toda a diferença.

O figurino, as canções, a temática, enfim, tudo é muito bom neste filme. Só pra dar um exemplo, dê uma olhada na trilha sonora. É demais!!!

Agora, se você ainda não viu esse filme e nem tem a menor idéia de quem são essas bandas, aí vai um chamariz para você ir à locadora agora.

“Two and half men” você conhece, né? Sabe o Alan, o irmão do Charlie, pois bem, o nome dele é Jon Cryer. Agora, quer vê-lo uns 20 anos atrás atuando, então veja o filme “Pretty in Pink” e veja que figura caricata.

Seja pela trilha, seja pelo visual e a época, seja para ver o irmão de “Two and half men” ou tudo isso junto, o blog The Sounds Of recomenda este filme.

CD News - Listas 2008 - Parte 2

É...como havia dito num post anterior, prepare-se para a enxurrada de "listinha". A primeira que descobri, já postei aqui em outubro (confira!). Agora, descubro outra. Desta vez, a fonte é a Rolling Stones e a lista...bem, no mínimo pra preencher matéria na revista, as 25 melhores capas de 2008.

Pensando melhor, é louvável ver um veículo de comunicação como a Rolling Stone fazendo uma eleição para as melhores capas, considerando que, nos dias atuais, com MP3, torrents e afins, capa é algo em profunda extinção (retiro o que eu disse, VIVA A ELEIÇÃO DAS CAPAS!!!).
Aí vão as campeãs:
25. Neon Neon - Stainless Style
24. Black Mountain - In the Future
23. Beck - Modern Guilt
22. MGMT - Oracular Spectacular

21. Lil Wayne - Tha Carter III

20. Lil Wayne - The Drought is Over

19. Ben Folds - Way to Normal

18. My Morning Jacket - Evil Urges

17. Mudcrutch - Mudcrutch

16. Guns N´Roses - Chinese Democracy

15. Nas - Untitled

14. Girl Talk - Feed the Animals

13. Kanye West - 808s & Heartbreak

12. The Cure - 4:13

11. Kings of Leon - Only by the Night
10. Of Montreal - Skeletal Lamping

9. Oasis - Dig out your Soul

8. The Rancounters - Consolers of the Lonely

7. Death Cab For Cutie - Narrow Stairs

6. Nine Inch Nails - The Slip
5. Coldplay - Viva la Vida

4. Metallica - Death Magnetic
3. Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes

2. The Mars Volta - Bedlam n Goliath

1. The Killers - Day & Age

Hollywood - O Sucesso!


Houve um tempo em que fumar era cool, era moderno. Fumar significava status, elegância, cultura, inteligência, nobreza. Fumar ainda era associado à aventura, esportes radicais, praia, surf.

Difícil imaginar isso não é?

E naquele momento, uma marca de cigarro fazia até mais do que isso. Ditava a trilha sonora do momento. Os hits que faziam a cabeça da juventude. Era o cigarro Hollywood, cujo slogan era “Hollywood, o sucesso”.

Um colega do trabalho, Alessandro Nicolic, diretor-presidente da Nicolic Pictures e membro Emérito da Associação dos Imitadores do Silvio Santos (abraço e sucesso no novo emprego!), compilou a “listinha” abaixo com 165 sucessos by Hollywood.

Muitas das faixas abaixo marcaram momentos para muitos que estão lendo esse blog. Para outra grande maioria, não fazem o menor sentido. De um jeito ou de outro (olha outro slogan de cigarro aí), há algo em comum. Essas canções já foram sucesso de verdade.

E também houve um tempo em que alguns desses clipes eram o top do top até em estilo...ainda bem que as coisas evoluem!!!

Se quiserem ter uma idéia ou relembrar alguns comerciais de Hollywood, cliquem nos links abaixo:
