What's New At G-POP.net:
Dr. Jeff: Rocky Mountain Vet - Melissa Miners reviews an Animal Planet series starring Dr. Jeff Young and his co-workers at Planned Pethood Plus.
Excerpt: "One Saturday, I was in that exhausted but staring at the television mode, waiting for dinner time. I literally was just sitting on the couch, staring at the television with my hand on the remote's channel button, watching shows scroll by until I came across one that woke me up. It was Dr. Jeff: Rocky Mountain Vet, airing on Animal Planet. For some reason, I couldn’t stop watching and, when one episode was over, I watched another. I watched during dinner and after dinner. Yup, it was a Dr. Jeff marathon!..."
Robot Overlords - Melissa Minners reviews the soundtrack of a British independent sci-fi film.
Excerpt: "...The Robot Overlords Soundtrack features a hybrid of orchestral and electronic sound, written in the viewpoint of the revolting youth in the film..."
Fences - Melissa Minners reviews the much-nominated film based on the play by August Wilson.
Excerpt: "I had heard a great deal of hype about Fences, a film based on a Pulitzer Prize-winning play by August Wilson. The film starred Denzel Washington and Viola Davis, reprising roles from the play’s 2010 revival that earned them Tony Awards. This time around, Viola Davis won an Academy Award for her role...I decided I wanted to check this film out..."
Penny Dreadful: Seasons 2 & 3 - Melissa Minners reviews the soundtrack of the Showtime series' final seasons.
Excerpt: "...I love that Abel Korzeniowski was able to create a great horror score using classic elements like lower registry orchestral sound and ominous sounding choral moments. Many composers use electronic sound and reverb to get the horror point across, but I find those scores are many sound effects rather than MUSICAL scores. Korzeniowski is a credit to what classic horror music is all about."
Incendiary - Melissa Minners reviews a book about the Mad Bomber of New York and the first case in which NYPD used profiling to catch a criminal.
Excerpt: "When I first heard of Incendiary and read the description of the book, I was surprised. Here was a book about a person committing terrorist acts in New York City in the 1950s and I had never heard about it..Even more interesting to me was the fact that this case was the first time that the NYPD used profiling to catch a criminal. I knew I had to get my hands on a copy of Incendiary..."
Man Up - Melissa Minners reviews the soundtrack of a comedy starring Kevin Wu and Justin Chon
Excerpt: "...Unfortunately, there isn’t much or a score to speak of. The Man Up Soundtrack features a bunch of movie cues that last about thirty seconds. Picture your favorite online music store: You aren’t sure if you want to purchase this song, so you click on a link that will allow you to sample it..."
