Green Day’s pop-up show at Anaheim’s House of Blues on Tuesday night left their set list a complete mystery. The concert was announced with only 24 hours notice, with no prior appearances in the past month for the audience to base their expectations. The surprise set allowed the band to unexpectedly revive two American Idiot deep cuts for the first time in nearly 20 years.
The discography deep-dive portion of the set list kicked off with something of a fake out. Green Day launched into “Give Me Novacaine,” which they...

Green Day’s new album, Saviors, has arrived.
Their 14th studio album, Saviors, is the first full-length release from Green Day since 2020’s Father of All Motherfuckers, and features more of a political tilt than the band has had in years. The lead single, “The American Dream Is Killing Me,” proves that with its title alone, as well as with lyrics like “Don’t want no huddled masses/ TikTok and taxes/ Under the overpass/ Sleeping in broken glass.”
Speaking about the band’s return to political subject matter, frontman Billie Joe Armstrong explained: “This time, we brought it out, and we felt like it was the perfect time for it… It takes those special, inspired moments to have a moment like ‘The American Dream Is Killing Me.’”
Subsequent singles — “Look Ma, No Brains!” “Dilemma,” and “One Eyed Bastard” — all showed off the record’s beefy, modern rock sound, brought to life by producer Rob Cavallo,...

“Don’t want no huddled masses/TikTok and taxes,” Billie Joe Armstrong sings on “The American Dream Is Killing Me,” the opening track of Green Day’s Saviors, echoing the first line of the title track from their Bush-era opus American Idiot. References to Covid and youth brain rot aside, the new album’s overly curt evocations of the cultural moment and slightly anarchic political mantras capture the spirit of the teenage angst that defined the ’90s pop-punk movement—though lyrics like “I’m with stupid and I’m all by myself” toe the line between charmingly irreverent and cringe-worthy.
Pulling influences from classic Cali punk, British Invasion pop, and early rock ‘n’ roll, the album’s sound is as melodic as it is gritty. Tracks like “Dilemma” and “Suzie Chapstick” boast bright, Beach Boys-esque guitar tones complemented by bursts of pop-punk energy. Elsewhere, the band flaunts their ability to...

Three decades ago, Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong was sarcastically singing “Welcome to Paradise.” Now at age 51, he’s staidly singing “Welcome to my problems” on “Dilemma,” a plaintive, swinging rocker on Green Day’s 14th LP, Saviors, which owes a debt to Fifties rock and the Ramones. “I was sober now I’m drunk again,” he wails in the chorus. “I’m in trouble and in love again/I don’t want to be a dead man walking.” It’s one of the album’s best songs and,...

Stingray: The Complete Series Deluxe Edition
Blu ray
Network
1964, 1965 / 1.33:1 / 975 Min.
Starring Ray Barrett, Robert Easton, David Graham, Don Mason, Lois Maxwell
Written by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson
Directed by Alan Pattillo, David Elliott, John Kelly, Desmond Saunders
If nothing else, Gerry and Sylvia Anderson’s Stingray should be celebrated for inspiring Team America: World Police, the gonzo marionettes-on-the-make political satire from South Park agitators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. If their 2004 farce was designed to provoke just about everybody, Stingray was also pretty out there, albeit in a trippy, Summer of Love kind of way. An aquatic puppet show swimming in psychedelic color, languid pacing, and underwater scenes apparently filmed inside a lava lamp, Stingray reflected the inveterate stoner’s mindset better than anything in Yellow Submarine. The entire series has just been released in an extravagant five disc box set from Network, Stingray: The Complete Series Deluxe Edition,...

Gerry and Sylvia Anderson are known as legends in the field of science fiction television series, and rightfully so. While they are probably most famous for their live action series Space: 1999 and the puppet series Thunderbirds, they have been responsible for a lot more titles. The British distributor Network is now releasing these older titles as lavish Blu-ray boxsets, and these are a sight to behold. Soon, the series Stingray will get its release and I'm looking forward to that. But already you can buy the set for the even older Fireball XL5, the first series the Andersons managed to sell to American networks, and for many people the first exposure to their work. It's a magnificent set. And a looker too, so here...

Frank Lupo, the TV writer-producer who was a frequent collaborator with Stephen J. Cannell in the 1980s on such high-octane dramas as “The A-Team,” “Hunter” and “Wiseguy,” has died. He was 66.
Lupo died Feb. 18 at his home in Florida, according to his sister, Linda Joy Sullivan.
Lupo’s work in TV took off in the late 1970s when he wrote for such series as “Battlestar Galactica,” “Magnum, P.I.,” “B.J. and the Bear” and “The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo.”
Lupo worked on the Universal Television lot in the same era as Cannell, the prolific showrunner behind “The Rockford Files” and “Baretta.” Lupo wrote several episodes of Cannell’s ABC dramedy “The Greatest American Hero.”
Lupo and Cannell then co-created “The A-Team,” the action-drama with touches of comedy that became a massive hit for NBC in 1983. Cannell, who died in 2010, famously took the bold step of launching his own independent production banner on the back of “A-Team.

Great new for fans of Mark Hamill! Corvette Summer (1978) is available on Blu-ray From Warner Archives
A cherry Corvette Stingray. A gorgeous girl. And a summer in glittery Las Vegas. What more does a guy need for the wildest, weirdest, funniest, freakiest time of his life? Mark Hamill (Star Wars) and Annie Potts (Designing Women) make comedic and romantic sparks fly in a revved-up tale of car-brained Kenny (Hamill), who trails a Corvette that’s mysteriously boosted after his high-school shop class restores it to perfection. The trail leads to Fun Capital, USA, and a ditzy diversion (Potts) whose dream is to become…a hooker? This damsel in distress needs a white knight on a candy-apple, metal-flake, superior-mags, mercury-tubes steed – right, Kenny? Both are in for a summer they’ll never forget.

Let’s be honest here, unless you’ve been following Annie Potts for her entire career from the moment she was in Corvette Summer with Mark Hamill, then you probably remember her best as the wise-cracking secretary from the Ghostbusters, Janine Melnitz. She was great in that role but she’s been equally great in many others throughout the years so wondering what happened to her is pretty simple. You don’t have to wonder. Her career has been doing pretty good throughout her life and she’s been around a few times and been doing her thing whenever she gets the chance. Her role

Gotta love the 80s.
“Ping Pong Summer” is a good tribute movie to those moviegoers who remember growing up in the 80s. It’s about a teenager who spends a summer at the beach in Ocean City in 1985. It combines the tributes of arcade games, young teen love, hip hop and of course—ping pong.
The film has great veteran actors like Susan Sarandon, Lea Thompson, Amy Sedaris and John Hannah. It also features the young actors of Marcello Conte, Myles Massey and Emmi Shockley.
Latino-Review had an extended exclusive phone interview with director Michael Tully. We discussed in significant detail about the production, the actors, the music and the love of the 1980s.
“Ping Pong Summer” is currently in limited release in certain theaters and also available on VOD.

You can't have a Comic-Con without countless stormtroopers, slave Leias and jedis lurking around every corner. Star Wars icon Mark Hamill attended the Con this year to promote his twisted new role in the upcoming film Sushi Girl, and nostalgically revealed to me that he thought Star Wars would end up as "a cult movie at midnight [movie theaters]."
Video: George Lucas: I Never Got To See 'Star Wars'
I talked with Hamill, now 60 years old, first about how much of a departure his role in Sushi Girl is for him: "You know, it reminded me of Reservoir Dogs, or one of those really gritty crime pictures, but at first I just couldn't conceive of myself doing it," he said. "And it's funny, because it's so grim, and I imagined [the set] being grim – and we couldn't have had more fun."

Stay off the streets and stay in with a movie…that takes to the streets.
Los Angelenos are aflutter with impending chaos. And, if you don’t live in Los Angeles, you probably don’t understand. (I live here and I’m not sure I fully understand.) But this weekend (July 15-17), the City of Los Angeles has gotten it in its mind to shut down the 405 Freeway, one of the central lifelines for the (frankly absurd) amount of traffic that hits Los Angeles on a daily basis. This means that, functionally, no one’s going anywhere this weekend and the entire West side of Los Angeles is going to be choked off by the cold, unrelenting hands of the Los Angeles Dot.
Naturally, this has become a bit of a cultural meme (surely confusing anyone who doesn’t live in Los Angeles) dubbed by internet pun genii as “Carmageddon.

Jack Nicholson at the 2007 OscarsWhen I was watching the Academy Awards last year one subject seemed to come up over and over again. Where the heck was Jack Nicholson? Long a fixture of the front row at the Kodak Theater, last year Jack was M.I.A. The Oscars just didn't seem the same without him. Hollywood didn't seem the same without him.
It wasn't just Jack either. There just aren't a lot of movie stars in Hollywood these days. They're just not producing any right now. Colin Firth, Jeremy Renner and Carey Mulligan? What gives?
Okay, let me back up. I should start out by giving you my definition of an A-List movie star. An A-Lister is someone known all over the world. By name and face. An actor just as recognizable in blue states like New York and California as they are in red states like Kansas and Alabama.
