It's the BEST & WORST of 2012 Music & Movies...so far anyway.
This is according to me. It's only my opinion.
For the record, when it comes to both music AND movies, I like all genres and styles, so I try not to be an entertainment snob in what I might discuss. For instance, I really dig a lot of indie music and heck, even independent movies too, but I don't always talk about them. Most indie fans DESPISE anything mass appeal or pop or mainstream. I get it, but I like many things. I will also say, there IS a lot of crap pushed in entertainment and pop culture. I've always said, just because something is a hit, doesn't mean it's good. It could be a horrible piece of really bad crap, BUT people like that. They DO and you KNOW it. Ugh.
BEST MUSIC
Mumford & Sons Babel.
I listen to it a lot. It just gets better.
Of Monsters And Men's My Head Is An Animal.
Masterpiece. Really.
Bruce Springsteen's Wrecking Ball.
I'm a fan of The Boss. I enjoy this album. I just wish he didn't talk politics so much.
Madonna's MDNA.
I think they screwed up with that first single...however, MDNA has some decent pop stuff. It probably hasn't gotten the "hits" out of it that it deserves. Superstar could be a hit imo.
Prince's R&R Affair.
The single R&R Affair is fantastic. Classic Prince, but fresh too.
Adele's Skyfall.
The music from the movie. I'm not the biggest Adele fan, but I dig it.
Van Halen's A Different Kind of Truth.
I was expecting something either excellent or garbage. It was something closer to excellent. Growing up loving hard rock (and still do), I liked this a lot.
WORST MUSIC
Psy's Gangnam Style.
Now THIS is what I mean by crap. Oh, it might be catchy, but it SUCKS and those of you who bought it on iTunes etc. will say you never liked it later. That's how it goes.
I could add a lot more, but I will pass.
BEST MOVIES
The Avengers starring Chris Evans & company.
I enoyed it a lot. Probably one of my favorite Superhero type flicks ever.
Wes Anderson's Moonrise Kingdom.
Excellent work. Great film!
The Amazing Spiderman starring Andrew Garfield.
It was different, but great in it's own way.
Skyfall starring Daniel Craig.
I went to an advanced screening in Indy for this. Outstanding!
The Dark Knight Rises starring Christian Bale.
I liked it quite a bit, but due to circustances, it wasn't as big as the others.
WORST MOVIES
Battleship starring Taylor Kitsch & Rihanna.
Garbage, period.
I could add a lot more, but I will pass.
