Can't Miss Tips

Goodness! Here it is, already Tuesday and I'm just now getting around to talking about this week's Can't Misses from Michael Ventre. Maybe I'm in the minority here but I just do not think that Borat is that funny of a character. Sacha Baron Cohen as his other altar-ego Ali G was funny but this one, I find it completely overhyped. Nonetheless, the new movie "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan" comes out this week and from what I've read, people from Kazakhstan are not pleased.

I really wish I had HBO and Showtime for three reasons: 1) Deadwood on HBO. 2) Dexter on Showtime. And 3) Weeds on Showtime. The show "Weeds" follows a suburban mom who after the death of her husband begins to sell pot as a way to support her family. I can't hear enough good things about this show but alas, I do not have HBO or Showtime but do I feel like paying the outrageous price and getting the shows on DVD?

My brother probably already knows this but if he doesn't: Bill, The Who is coming out with their first studio album in 24 years. Bill and I have had this argument many times. Zeppelin vs. Who. Although I will give The Who credit to the few songs of theirs that I really enjoy, sorry Bill. I'm still Zeppelin all the way. Also in time for Halloween, "Nightmare On Elm Street" is getting a revamped DVD and Stephen King's new book is coming out though it isn't a horror story. Though, for some people, a love story is just a frightening.
