Breaking onto a '90s pop scene that was saturated in bottle-blonde look-alikes was surely difficult for Christina Aguilera. But while most choose to expose their midriff, Aguilera brought a breath of fresh air to the genre choosing to display a voice that was unmatched by any other.
Now 10 years after her emergence comes the release of her greatest hits compilation Keeps Gettin' Better: A Decade of Hits that reflects the many sides, both good and bad, that the chameleon-like singer has taken throughout the years.

Kids today don't get it. They learn all they know about sex from educational classroom things. I don't know where they're getting all these wacky ideas - if there's one thing we don't want, it's a bunch of bald 16-year-olds running around having sex when they should be working in coffee shops and fixing cars.

"Hitler's a joke, he'll never last."
For John Halder this is just one of a laundry list of excuses to ease his guilt at having joined the Nazi party to further his career in 1937. Played by Viggo Mortensen, Halder's plight in the film "Good" (Good Films, 2008) is that of millions of Germans before World War II who allowed the Holocaust to occur by their own denial and inaction.

He may not order his martinis the way he used to, but 007 still serves up the kind of action that keeps audiences coming back for more. "Quantum of Solace," the twenty-second installment in the film series based on British writer Ian Fleming's novels, opened November 14 to mixed reviews but packed theatres, almost doubling the opening weekend box office gross of its more highly regarded predecessor, "Casino Royale.

The mood is perfect: it's chilly outside, the room is covered in muted pastel tones from your five-color floor lamp and you're both full of Indian take-out. But, interruptions happen - mostly during important things like sex, and never, it seems, during unimportant things like homework.

James Bond is back in "Quantum of Solace," which is a direct sequel to the excellent 2006 reboot film, "Casino Royale." This is actor Daniel Craig's second take as the famous spy, and the expectations for this film are high, as "Casino Royale" has been lauded as one of the best Bond films ever. That being said, does "Quantum of Solace" live up to its predecessor and establish another excellent addition to the Bond series? The answer is that though "Quantum of Solace" does not overshadow its precursor, it still remains a well-done movie that furthers Craig's realistic and gritty portrayal of the world's favorite MI6 agent.

What has made Daniel Craig so appealing as James Bond is his willingness to take the franchise to extremely uncharted waters. Even more than he did in Casino Royale, Craig gives us a 007 who is driven, focused, intense, and also impulsive, ruthless, and murderous.
