Remember to vote this way,

1. THIS IS DESTROYING OUR SOCIETY!
2. AAUUUGGHHH, THIS IS HORRIBLE
3. Ugh.
4. I actually kind've like this one or at least it's inoffensive.

1. The Secret- A work that preys on people's self-centeredness and laziness and makes it religious philosophy. Certainly a problem in society,
2. Wicked- Actually, this is third, but I'm putting it here to make a point. Despite my problems from the viewpoint of an OZ fan (THEY RUINED THE SCARECORW AND DIDN'T FOLLOW CANON!), it also reflects the current naive morality of modern Americans. Will expand on this later.
3. Shrek the third- Really second here. Ruins King Arthur and Peter Pan and represents every selfish and stupid idea held today. Will expand on later.
4. Family Guy- I actually enjoy it sometimes and I feel it reflects society's problems rather then encourage them to continue like the other three here.

1. Family Guy (The only good argument I've heard for it was when a kid in my eleventh grade English class wrote an essay on how Seth McFarland is actually making fun of his viewers. Still, that doesn't help it as a show.)
2. The Secret (Don't know it, but....)
3. Shrek the Third (.... I kinda liked this. It was forgettable, but not bad.)
4. Wicked (And this was WICKED!!!! Seriously, this is an example of how the stage can be magical and transforming. It sucks you in and doesn't let go. What "naive morality" are you talking about anyway, Superpan?)

I was thinking of numbers.

Spideyfan, Wicked the musical showcases the generic "government is lying to me!" that is supposedly a deep realization for this generation yet any one that has any memory will know that THEY'VE ALWAYS DONE THAT. So Elphaba protests against the MAN by...flying around on a broomstick. I bet the animals are overjoyed for their relief of seeing SURRENDER DOROTHY in the skies. That helps them with their Nazi-like repression.

Of course, Elphaba is in this postion because she's "gifted" and "special". BECAUSE EVERYONE IN OUR COUNTRY IS GIFTED OR SPECIAL AND THEIR LIVES SUCK WHEN THEY'RE YOUNG BECAUSE THEY GET MADE FUN OF AND IGNORED. But don't worry, that guy you only like for being attractive will leave his girlfriend and go with you and he's somewhat likable. Of course, what does the gifted person do with their knowledge?

WHATEVER SHE WANTS! Give back to society? HAH! Social Justice? Nope, I'm flying around on a broomstick! Also, making the government look like Nazis is overdone in today's culture.

Basically, the moral stance of the play is "I'm gifted and society is terrible, but people who know me love me and as long as I KNOW it's wrong, it's okay for me!"

That is the moral of a post-existentalist society. Things don't matter as long as we're informed. If we don't like something, we can just complain and say we know better. God forbid anybody actually use their gifts to better society? Nope, just have good friends and be your own person. That's all you need in Life. YOURSELF AND A FEW OTHER PEOPLE.

That's what's wrong with modern society. Wicked's popularity only attests to this.

And.... that's a problem with the show because....?

Moreso a "I'm not giving in to societal demands" than anything else, actually.

Of course, Elphaba is in this postion because she's "gifted" and "special". BECAUSE EVERYONE IN OUR COUNTRY IS GIFTED OR SPECIAL AND THEIR LIVES SUCK WHEN THEY'RE YOUNG BECAUSE THEY GET MADE FUN OF AND IGNORED.
I cannot refute this because I do not know what you just said.

But don't worry, that guy you only like for being attractive will leave his girlfriend and go with you and he's somewhat likable. Of course, what does the gifted person do with their knowledge?
Fierro's seriously not as bad as you make him out to be. He seemed shallow at first, but he was more than that. And Elphaba didn't like him at all until she realized that, by the way, so no she didn't only like him for being attractive.

WHATEVER SHE WANTS! Give back to society? HAH! Social Justice? Nope, I'm flying around on a broomstick! Also, making the government look like Nazis is overdone in today's culture.

Basically, the moral stance of the play is "I'm gifted and society is terrible, but people who know me love me and as long as I KNOW it's wrong, it's okay for me!"

That's what's wrong with modern society. Wicked's popularity only attests to this.

In other words.... You fell asleep during "No Good Deed" and thus thought Elphaba was trying to give something back and thus missed the entire point of the show. She refuses to give into the corrupted society, but she isn't exactly an angel herself. She's given up on the ideals she once had and has simply stopped caring. They made her a sympathetic character, not a Christ figure.

...That's what's wrong with modern society

It's late at night, and horrifying images of responses like that (with much less thought behind them then yours has) are dancing through my head.

"Fred is annoying! And that's what wrong with modern society."

"Twilights's vampires sparkle! And that's whats wrong with modern society."

"Shark Tales has fish that talk! And that's what wrong with modern society."

:p

Anyway, my votes.

1. The Secret (Yeah that's fair enough I guess...)
2. Shrek 3 (Well, it was bad, I suppose...)
3. Family Guy (I like it, actually, but...)
4. Wicked (....I've not seen this yet, and I think what you're talking about sounds more like realism than moral naivety.)

Hooray for negativity!

1. Family Guy - I absolutely despise this, and I personally think it's lowering America's standards in comedy.
2. Shrek the Third - Awful sequel, and it shows what is generally wrong with DreamWorks. The fourth movie was, thankfully, way better.
3. The Secret - Is it bad that I don't actually know what this book is about?
4. Wicked - I've heard mostly good things.

Oh, and there's a typo in the overall list. I nominated Justin Beiber's influence, not his songs

Hmmm...perhaps I should have been more specific.

I feel that the musical glossed over the moral grey areas that has been pointed out. While the quality of the musical is debatable, I feel that most of the fans of that musical see Elphaba as a surrogate figure for themselves and thus see her as an heroic figure, since everyone sees themselves as an heroic figure of some kind.

Elphaba's approach to life is I fear the same approach to life that FAR too many peoplem have. In the hit song "Defying Gravity", the heart of the musical, Elphaba sings about how she can't stand by and let the Wizard do this to the animals unopposed. Alot of people love this song because it's supposed to show the heights that Elphaba (the audience member) can go.
Wait.... What....?

"Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules
Of someone else's game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes: and leap!"

No, nothing about animals there....

"I'm through accepting limits
'cause someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change
But till I try, I'll never know!
Too long I've been afraid of
Losing love I guess I've lost
Well, if that's love
It comes at much too high a cost!"

Maybe the till I try could be interpreted about overcoming injustice, but it kinda feels more of a I can do anything type line.

"So if you care to find me
Look to the western sky!
As someone told me lately:
'Ev'ryone deserves the chance to fly!'
And if I'm flying solo
At least I'm flying free
To those who'd ground me
Take a message back from me"

I see some personal enlightenment and some no boundaries in there, but no, still nothing about ending the Wizard's reign.

"Glinda - come with me. Think of what we could
do: together.
Unlimited
Together we're unlimited
Together we'll be the greatest team
There's ever been
Glinda -
Dreams, the way we planned 'em
GLINDA
If we work in tandem:
BOTH
There's no fight we cannot win
Just you and I
Defying gravity"

Oh, the power of friendship! Still, I don't see animals in there.

"It's time to try
Defying gravity
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
And you can't pull me down!"

Chorus! Definitely, definitely, DEFINITELY about breaking the rules with no restraints.

"(high note) Aa-aa-aa-aahhh!"

.... I GUESS that part's about animals....

Yet, much like the audience member, Elphaba's only heroic act is not having the same opinion as everyone else. This would be fine if she wasn't a heroic figure, but she is. That type of heroic figure is the one most celebrated in our culture.

Just look at schools. There are dozens of references to hippies and "not giving into peer pressure", but never "Give back to the community" or "Okay, you know alot. Now, what do you do with that knowldge?"
Today in my Storytelling Strategies class, we watched Borat.

We had a nice discussion about how satires work, highlighting the stereotypical thinking of American culture in laugh-out-loud ways. Then we had a small little debate over whether there's actually any point in this kind of humor when it isn't going to change anyone's mind as those who disagree with the perspectives presented by the movie simply won't watch it.

I think it was the professor who made this suggestion - sometimes, situations are really just so bad that there's nothing you can do to change it, and in those cases we tend to turn to comedy. Think of why Stephen Colbert is higher rated than actual news programs.

But is it really wrong to just not give in? Elphaba is one person. Even with Glinda and Fierro, there is no chance that any change could have come about, particularly when all of Oz is against her. But she still didn't give in. In a sense, that is extremely heroic. When given the option to desert her ideals and get everything she's ever wanted, she rejected it. She makes mistakes like any human - the show does not try to justify her kidnapping and Dorothy and that poor little dog. She is simply an idealist whose world was shattered by the corruptions of society.

Instead, people talk about how all people are basically good, or their religious faith, or something else that basically shuts down both their brain and their activism. It's not that I have a problem with the depiction of Elphaba. I have a problem with a musical that reflects and reinforces a society that would side with the Wicked Witch of the West.
....

I think people ARE basically good. Well, rather, I don't believe in good and evil. It's all manmade, all in the mind, and thus, our perceptions of good and evil are personal. We view ourselves as good. This is my honest belief. You're telling me my entire hopeful perception of mankind is wrong?

That's.... actually just very pessimistic.... You just hate Wicked 'cause it's happy!

1. 40 Year Old Virgin: terrible terrible movie. now, i'm not against sex comedies, and find some very funny. i'm a huge fan of the American Pie movies but i have a couple beefs with this movie. A. It's "not ok" to be a virgin? why not? what's wrong with having morals? B. It's not funny. I love Steve Carell, but this was painfully unfunny C. It's really unoriginal. back when American Pie was being made, sex comedies weren't mainstream and they all were the same. AP changed it up and made it cool again. sadly, now movies just copy AP(including their own crappy sequels).
2. Sexy "Chick": yeah, it's got a good beat, but it's just completely disrespectful to women, imo
3. Last Airbender: kinda blah. decent special effects, no story. big surprise

Oh, so I'm supposed to be happy that someone won't help me, but instead she'll help herself? How is that happy?

Also, as I said, this thread will encourage some controversey. We are talking about modern society and our criticisms of it.

Stephen Colbert has hopefully inspired a generation of people to be more critical of their government in a reasonable matter, marginalizing the impact of future Glenn Becks and other overdramatic politcal people. Unless that same generation succumbs to the temptation of apathy and selfishness of shows like Wicked.
It's not about selfishness. It's about self-respect.

(And, as cradleman proves, those who don't already agree with Colbert won't watch his show.)

please tell me you just didn't use that idiot Colbert as a positive example of how to criticize government. He knows nothing. Glenn Beck may be a bit full of himself, but he does make some very good points many times.
Seriously, you've just gotta love crade!

Well, the people who watch him are younger. Imagine if him and Stewart weren't there, and politics was only represented to young people by Fox News?

You can see why Colbert is important. Comedians are always important with their mockery of the imperfections of the status quo.

I can't respect anyone who puts themselves first. It strikes me as amoral.

Actually, despite being a film major, I'd probably argue the exact opposite. I'm in Sound Image right now, learning all about audio, the invisible hand so to speak which when done right nobody even notices. We'll know when audio is choppy or incoherent, but if it flows right, it just becomes a part of the work and we lose consciousness of it, thus allowing it to dig much deeper than visuals.

Songs are aired all over the place, and it is likely that everyone will hear a popular song at some point, whether they choose to listen to it or not. They have a much larger audience, and yet the audience frequently is not even aware of the lyrics, just tuning into the catchy melody which plays over and over again in our heads. But we still hear the lyrics, and they still have an effect. It's just less obvious.

Actually, despite being a film major, I'd probably argue the exact opposite. I'm in Sound Image right now, learning all about audio, the invisible hand so to speak which when done right nobody even notices. We'll know when audio is choppy or incoherent, but if it flows right, it just becomes a part of the work and we lose consciousness of it, thus allowing it to dig much deeper than visuals.

Songs are aired all over the place, and it is likely that everyone will hear a popular song at some point, whether they choose to listen to it or not. They have a much larger audience, and yet the audience frequently is not even aware of the lyrics, just tuning into the catchy melody which plays over and over again in our heads. But we still hear the lyrics, and they still have an effect. It's just less obvious.

Well, even though I'd say I'm rather uncultured, I've heard of the 40-Year-Old Virgin but I've never heard of Sexy BLEEP. But I can understand what you're saying.

Shouldn't Sexy BLEEP and The Last Airbender be in a tiebreaker?

1. The General Moviegoing Public - I don't think you guys understand why I nominated this. Thanks to these people, Avatar is the number one movie of all time, Fantastic Mr. Fox failed, and Toy Story 3 didn't beat Shrek the Third's opening weekend record. What's with these guys?
2. The Simpsons - Not a fan, and this is a weak match.
3. Rule 34 - I'd say I have a general idea of what it is, but barely any.
4. Slipknot - Who?

I don't play sports, and does that make me less a man than David Oritz, a man who does play sports but has worse values? (Note: David Oritz was just an example. Please don't take offense that I used him)
2. Slasher Films - I really don't get the point of going to the movies just see people be brutally killed. It's not scary or funny, just disturbing.
3. Gears of War - Don't see why this is on here for senseless violence while MadWorld isn't. I really don't see that big an issue with it, but I can see why some would.
4. Unnecessary Deep-Frying - I'm sorry but when the county fair comes around, I always make sure to eat deep-fried Oreos, vegetables, and Pepsi. As the current Cookie Monster would say, they are a sometimes food. However, that does not make an issue.

SpideyFan914

11-27-2010, 03:05 AM

....

Not everything under the sea is automatically a rip-off of Finding Nemo. The only thing that rings Finding Nemo about that movie is the vegetarian shark. Otherwise, it's more of a mafia parody than anything else.

And, for the record, EVERYTHING stuffs itself with famous actors. Ever seen Iron Man? Sherlock Holmes? Indiana Jones? It's called "making a profit." The problem is when that's all you care about, and honestly, I do not get that vibe from Shark Tale.

As for the other things.... all matters of opinion, and all refer to the quality of work, not its relevance to modern society. Heck, it's already forgotten, and it hasn't even been ten years - unpopular works aren't very good representations of modern society, good or bad.

Still, they make terrible lists and bad decissions in their reviews. When the Led Zeppelin catalouge was first reviewed, RS panned them. After history vindicated the band, RS gave them kinder reviews. Zeppelin aren't the only victems of this, just the most noteworthy.

The Band was named after Muddy Waters' song; the magazine was named after Bob Dylan's song.

No, it wasn't, it was named after the Muddy Waters song. The magazine has been quite adamant about this, since rumors of it being named after The Rolling Stones and "Like a Rolling Stone" have existed for years, even to the point where Jagger and co. considered suing the magazine for using what they thought was their name.

In any case, I don't really understand the hate people give Rolling Stone magazine, just because it originally panned artists like Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd, only to give them lots of praise later on. And you know why? Because this happens with lots of things. What about Disney's Fantasia? It was severely panned back in the 40's, only for it to be regarded as a classic later on. Hell, I was reading earlier today on the Chuck Jones/Dr. Seuss special How The Grinch Stole Christmas, and apparently it didn't get very good reviews when it initially aired, but now it's among the most loved Christmas specials. Things change.

I don't see Rolling Stone magazine as a serious source of information if you're really literate into music, because there is a lot of stuff it doesn't cover, but I also don't see the harm in viewing the publication as a quick little reference. Nobody is ever going to agree on what the greatest song ever is, or who the greatest guitarist ever is, and I don't see why a magazine should be faulted just because it published a list based off it's and other contributor's opinions.

Why? Because most guys constantly drool over her? How's that her fault?

Is she the greatest actress in the world? No, but I don't think that's a career that your ability to do it really affects your persona to any great degree. Is she a rocket scientist? No, but her major accomplishment is being in Michael Bay Transformers movies. Why does she have to be?

For all I know she could be a terrible person, but I don't think she deserves the backlash she gets.

3- The Punisher- Eh, never really cared for the character, so I never got around to watching it.
4- Daredevil- I honestly do kind of like it, mostly the director's cut. Elektra though, is another story.

Match 2

1- One More Day- Everything wrong with Marvel in one fell swoop, with my favorite super hero no less.
2- 3D Glasses- Mostly for 3D movies, a fad that needs to die.
3- Zoey 101- The only one of Dan Schneider's shows that I could find no entertainment in. If I didn't dislike the first two as much as I did, this would probably be higher.
4- 4Kids- What they did to One Piece, among other anime, is unforgivable, but they aren't as much of a nuisance as they used to be. I feel tempted to put them higher after their blue Mr. Popo endeavor, but they didn't dub DB Kai, so I'll leave them at last for now.

Well, I wouldn't say it's racist to despise anime. Japanese animators can make any style of cartoon. My dislike of anime comes more from my "tween" years. I was never a fan of any of it due to some anime traumatizing and scaring me in my younger years, but when everyone in your fifth grade class is debating Naruto and Bobobobobo episodes and reading Fruit Basket, you get REEEAAALLLY sick of it after awhile. Also, I've yet to see a good anime that didn't annoy me. It's type of storytelling is often immature, unbelievably dense, annoying in techinical aspects, and alot seem to reflect really weird fetishes. Alot like modern society come to think of it.

Oh, it obviusly doesn't show all out cross-burning, head-shaving racism, but there's certainly a light xenophobic flavor.:p

Modern society really does utilize an immature brand of storytelling (The last election, for example, was incredibly predictable, and it's all-too-obvious that the mid-term results are just a desperate attempt at creating conflict in the narrative, and, really - Sarah Palin gets a TV show? Escapism at it's weakest.), but I'm not sure how it would reflect weird fetishes. I also don't really follow your "everybody loves it so I hate it" thread of thought.

As for the last bit, well, maybe you should watch more. I've never seen an ostritch I was overly-fond of, but I've only seen a couple at the zoo, so I wouldn't dare claim that all ostritches are mediocre. (There's an apt metaphor in there!)

EDIT: Oh. I forgot to mention; regarding 4Kids. I'm generally anti-censorship, but I also grew up with a lot of their shows, so my feelings on them are decidedly mixed. While I think several of the changes they made were pointless and stupid, I don't think that, in the long run, the edited shows were especially bad pieces of children entertainment. So I probably wouln't have put them at the top of my list even if they were still at the top of their game.

Hm.... Is it just me, or do Superpan's arguments sound more like reasons to hate 4Kids! dubbing than anime itself?

1. Daredevil (Only way I know I hate.)
2. Rule 34 (Sounds bad, in a vague way.)
3. Fred (I think I saw some of him. It was stupid humor, but we've already got stupid humor stuff moving on, and Fred's not as well-known.)
4. Punisher (It was basically I was expecting.)

1. 3D Glasses (What the heck is wrong with 3D? Well, let's see.... It started as a simple little fad to make rollercoaster movies like Spy Kids more rollercoaster. Then it began to seep its way into all moviedom, and is quickly conquering all of Hollywood. Soon, everything will be 3D, just to make movies more expensive to make and watch, less accessible to casual viewing and people with glasses, and all in all it doesn't even look good! The only time 3D has left any good impression on me was in Avatar - in other movies, they let it dictate how the movie works. The viewer must realize its 3D, and must be wowed by the special effects. It's not about great story or directing, but it's all about how cool it is to look at. For now, we're always given the option to watch 3D movies in 2D (depending on your local theaters, that is), but how long will that last? I want to be a filmmaker, but I don't want to be making everything in 3D!! And yet, everyone says that this may just be the future of cinema, and nothing is going to stop it.)

Except for the fact I've never watched 4kids. The closest I came to watching it was when Spectacular Spider-Man was on and I only watched that show. That was all about Toonami, for the most part.

1. Take it off: ugh. Ke$ha's popularity astounds me when she pumps out crap songs like this
2. Auto-tune: makes some songs just painful to listen to and makes a lot of today's performers sound a lot better on CD then they actually are. (for instance, Katy Perry, who sounds abysmal live but i like her cd's)
3. Sonic Fanbase: whatever
4. Wolverine: had this been X3, it would have been #2, but i actually enjoyed Wolverine, though it's far from perfect

1- Sonic fanbase- Almost singlehandedly ruins a great game franchise's legacy. Almost, since the games have been on and off in quality so much during the past few years
2- Wolverine- Not very good
3- Auto-tune- There is actual good for auto-tune, if you want to help tune your voice. It's just artists like Ke$ha and Selena Gomez who overuse it to death that give auto-tune a bad name.
4- Take It Off- And speaking of Ke$ha, in my personal opinion, she is the biggest troll in the music industry. No one, not even Lady Gaga, could make such idiotic music and make it as successful as she has. The way her haters react to her music is exactly what she's looking for, so I'm not giving any of her music the benefit of being too high in my rankings.

1- Justin Bieber- And speaking of Selena, HOW COULD YOU? If Demi Lovato was dating him, I'd go out of my way to make this kid win the game, but for Sel's sake, he has to take the top for me this time.
2- Shipping- There are still Zutara shippers to this very day. That is all.
3- The Ugly Truth- Film Brain's review was enough to make me feel that this is at least third
4- BMX XXX- I barely remember this myself

I don’t understand how you two can put BMX XXX at the bottom of your list. If we’re looking at this realistically, it should probably make it to the finals – if not win this thing outright. You may find Justin Bieber annoying, but how is what he is doing any different than what any other teen idol has done over the years? BMX XXX was a horrible game, and the developers knew it was horrible, so they tried to appeal to the lowest common denominator by throwing in nudity and hoping that it generated sells. That represents what is wrong with modern society on a number of levels.

1) BMX XXX – see above.
2) The Ugly Truth – I suppose it’s more bothersome than the other two.
3) Justin Bieber – He’s not even a blip on my radar, but…
4) Shipping – It’s harmless fun. Completely harmless.

Superpan

01-05-2011, 03:44 PM

1. Take It Off- Wait, Dark lord. You dislike Ke$ha yet put her last in the rankings. May I ask why?
2. Auto Tune- Yeah, a bit of a problem. Fake, crass, and annoying. However, I think Katy Perry is able to pull off the occasional live performance and that she's a good entertainer regardless of it.
3. X-Men Origins: Wolverine- Did I nominate this? Huh, I forget why.
4. Sonic fanbase- These are people I don't know so I really can comment.

1. BMX XXX- From what I've read, it does reflect our society's unhealthy attitudes towards nudity, which is one of my bigger pet peeves.
2. The Ugly Truth- REALLY sexist, from what I've seen.
3. Justin Bieber- Are we criticizing his work or his existence? If it's the second...ouch. Again, I've never met the guy.
4. Shipping- Oh come on, this has been the best part of reading heroic fiction since Ivanhoe.

1. Take It Off (Anything by Kesha gets #1. She spells her name with a money symbol. That's how bad she is.)
2. Wolverine (More of a parade than a movie. It just took the popularity of however many characters it could squeeze, and gave two minutes each on the screen to generate $$$.)
3. Auto Tune (Not sure what this is.)
4. Sonic Fanbase (Not sure why this is bad.)

1. Justin Bieber (At Tangled, they played an ad for a Justin Bieber movie. The little kid behind me turned to his mom and said, "We've gotta see Justin Bieber!!" She says, "No, we will not see Justin Bieber." That one moment beat the entire movie - and Tangled was a GOOD movie! (PS: Justin Bieber is in 3D.))
2. Shipping (I know what it is.)
3. BMX XXX (Don't know what it is.)

Guys, I said quite a few times that I nominated Justin Beiber's INFLUENCE, not his songs, or him at all. The influence is the real problem.

1. Auto Tune - Even though it can be used to good use, it more often makes bad music worse.
2. Sonic Fanbase - I guess they can be obnoxious...
3. Take It Off - It sounds bad.
4. X-Men Origins: Wolverine - Eh, never saw it, but it can't be that bad.

1. Justin Bieber's Influence - It's downright scary at times, like with the movie and also those mobs that happened at that mall.
2. Shipping - I've seen some pretty disturbing ships, especially for stuff with main characters under the age of 18.
3. BMX XXX - I've heard of it, and I know it's bad.
4. The Ugly Truth - Never saw it.

I don't like or hate Ke$ha. I do think it's hilarious the amount of backlash she receives when she does most of her music to spite fans of music, which she definitely is.

I'll get into detail about this later.

2. Auto-Tune- It can be good, but most of the top 40 music out there is convincing me otherwise.
3. Take It Off/Ke$ha- I really don't despise her.
4. X-Men Origins: Wolverine- Didn't see it.

1. BMX XXX- A game so bad that Dave Mirra took his name off of, and that Sony didn't allow the game to be released until they censored the nudity.
2. Justin Bieber's Influence- Don't care for the lad personally, so I don't hate him outright. His music is fine in my book
3. Shipping- I'm a shipper, but I do try to make some sense out of it.
4. Ugly Truth- I have no idea what this is.

1. Justin Bieber (We've discluded him from the male gender :p Seriously, I feel bad for the kid since he takes a lot of crap. But I really don't like his music at all, and he's a little too popular)

4. Auto-Tune (Still don't know what this is.)
It's a computer thing that corrects a singer's voice when it's off pitch, so that even if they don't sing well, they can still sound good on CD. case in point is Katy Perry, who live is just awful, but her CD's are good cause she uses so much auto tune on her songs. It can also be used to make a singing voice sound computerized (i.e. Blame it on the Alchohol by T-pain)

1. Auto-Tune -- In a nutshell, it's just one of so many things wrong with the current state of today's music industry. I could go into specifics, but... man, that'd take me a while. Too long, in fact.
2. Take it Off -- There she is again! Honestly, there are all kinds of things wrong with her material, but the whole "OMG I HAZ TEH GLITAR!!!1!!11!1" factor might take the cake, in this case.
3. Shock Sites -- DO NOT WANT
4. Clash of the Titans -- Yawn. Basically, just another remake, coming out of a society obsessed with do-overs. The only real sticking point here is the sequel factor, and how such a substandard production could actually manage to get one. Had the other three choices not been so much worse, I might have ranked it higher based on that alone... but alas, 'tis not so this time.
