Neal Medlyn: “Why Won’t You Let Me Be Great!!!”

Misccindi — Sat, 29 Aug 2009 04:10:53 +0000

Although the show is no longer running, Performance Space 122’s production of “Why Won’t You Let Me Be Great!!!” should definitely be remembered as one of the greatest performances ever! Okay, well….the greatest performance that I’ve seen in years.

WWYLMBG was an interpretive dance performance based on the 2008 Kanye West hit album “808’s & Heartbreak“. Named after a quote from a very memorable blog post from the platinum artist, the show included a wide array of performers acting out the melodies of the best-selling LP. However, Neal Medlyn left his mark on the show with his rendition of “Welcome to Heartbreak” & “Pinocchio Story”.

After doing a little more research, it seems that Medlyn’s been “re-creating” tunes for quite some time. Check out the footage of Medlyn’s hilarious version of Phil Collin’s In the Air Tonight after the jump….

As an honorable mention, the performance of the “Robocop” by the Varsity Interpretive Dance Squad was highly entertaining and completely spot-on with the song’s theme. Check out their performance of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller“….

Movie Alert: “Hush”

"Hush"

On a lazy summer Friday, I got the chance to watch a UK horror flick titled “Hush“. To my surprise, this film renewed my faith in engaging thrillers featured/created/produced/directed by fresh talent. Without any big-time “A-listers” or any recognizable stars, this movie kept me highly interested in all characters involved throughout the plot. Check out the trailer…

MJ has passed

Misccindi — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 14:36:36 +0000

I honestly didn’t think that my first post in ‘09 wouldn’t involve a headline so unbelievable…

The fact that I still can’t come to terms with Michael Jackson’s passing is a testament to how much of a staple he was to me and the world.

I never met him, didn’t know him (personally), and I never went to any of his concerts….but my love for his music was so unique, that I responded to an MJ jam completely different from anything else.

This man can not be forgotten.

Back at it again…

Misccindi — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 19:23:03 +0000

….Gosh, it sure feels like forever ago since I last blogged.

But with the type of year it’s been…can you blame me? (Don’t understand?….well let me explain) Think about the last few months full of political hoopla (Obama straight stomped out McLame..lol!), economic downfalls (Lowest in 6 years), and the usual celebrity calamity. I’ve been out there living it…experiencing news….dealing with new issues….changing my life scope.

I’m back because I feel like I’ve grown as a person, but more so as a writer.

At times, I will delve a bit deeper on topics that I feel affect a subset of peoples, which in turn could affect a majority of peoples. Or I might rant/rave about a certain something..(like Obsessed comin’ in ‘09). You know, whatever fits my fancy.

Thanks to those who’ve always supported me….

Love you much!

Misccindi — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 12:27:36 +0000

I love love love this song! And I’m super amped that the name “Estelle” might just become popular. (inside joke)

Street Kings, Get Smart, The Happening

Misccindi — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 03:19:39 +0000

Street Kings starring Common, Forrest Whittaker, Keanu Reeves, and The Game is set to hit theaters April 11.

{My 2 cents}: Common, is there anything you can’t do?

Get Smart starring Steve Carell, Anne Hathaway, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, and Alan Arkin hit box office on June 20.

{My 2 cents}: Steve Carell is so effing hysterical! And “The Rock” can still get it. (wink wink)

The Happening starring Mark Wahlberg comes out on June 13.

{My 2 cents}: Damn you, M. Night Shamalama, (lol), your cinematic ventures always grab a hold of me!

Peace & Love
