Read It...
Motley Crue
The Dirt

This biography is so gritty, so freaky, so crazy, it makes the Led Zeppelin bio, Hammer of the Gods look like a Dr. Suess book and Motley Crue's own Behind the Music episode seem G-rated by comparison. Often, stories are told from the perspective of two, three or all four band members, which means one thing, lots of backstabbing. And that always makes for a good read. America loves to absolve a sinner, as long as it gets to hear all the sordid details. Motley Crue weren’t always the nicest guys, but they manage to redeem themselves through many trials by fire. Through all the debauchery they managed to make some of the best rock and roll of the 80’s. The Dirt is one of the most captivating, honest and enjoyable rock books out there.
 

At The Movies...
Atlantis: The Lost Empire
Nerdy explorer Milo (voiced by Michael J. Fox) uses a mysterious map to lead a mission aboard a submarine to find the lost city of Atlantis. Suddenly, they find themselves captured by a giant squid, and sure enough, they're taken to Atlantis. Complications arise as getting home becomes quite an obstacle, and division between the crew hinders them further. The movie is action packed, has a great story, and also has the voice talents of a lot of actors you'll recognize, as well as the usual brilliant animation that comes with a Disney release. So, take the kids, suspend critical judgement for an hour or so, and have a nice time.

On Video...
The Pledge
A Nevada homicide cop (Jack Nicholson) on the day before his retirement makes a pledge to an anguished mother to find the rapist-killer of her young daughter and becomes obsessed with tracking the perpetrator. Although the police quickly close the case, the ex-cop finds new leads in the case pointing to a series of similar crimes and, on his own, buys a house and gas station at a key intersection in the county, hoping that the killer will travel his way. The driven cop enters a dubious relationship with a widow and her young daughter, but his obsession even though he may be right eventually destroys the people closest to him and turns his life into an emotional shambles.
