2006 is a year I once thought was like 2000 in how incredibly mediocre the films were and how mediocre everything seemed. That makes sense. Both years… Read more “The Best Songs of 2006”
The Best Songs of 2005
I feel freed. 2004 was such a long year to write about and the songs weren’t that interesting to write about. Like they were good but not… Read more “The Best Songs of 2005”

Everybody dance, The Omniplex is open!! This week, come with us to 60’s Baltimore, as we talk John Waters’ 1988 classic Hairspray!

The Best Songs of 2000

OPX 21: Nutcrackin’ Easter (Uncredited Jesus)
It’s Easter at The Omniplex! And what better way to celebrate than by talking about.. a Christmas movie?? Yup, this year instead of hiding eggs, you will need to hide your nuts, because this week’s movie is 2009’s Russian-Hungarian production The Nutcracker: The Untold Story (aka The Nutcracker 3D)! From us shaking our heads in disappoint at an otherwise fantastic cast (Nathan Lane, John Turturro..), and baffling at the unneccesary Nazi imagery, come join us as we take down this bad Christmas classic… for Easter.
