Rarely Heard: Essential Logic - Music is a Better Noise
Essential Logic is essentially Lora Logic, who previously played sax in the wonderful punk band X-Ray Spex. At the time I had a crush on Lora and her music and I had all her albums. I still have the Essential Logic LP, but I'm missing her solo album Pedigree Charm (Allmusic.com: "a great forgotten album of the era"). It seems that the Fanfare In The Garden. An Essential Logic Collection includes most material of both albums, Music is a Better Noise is one of my alltime favourite songs.
Jonah Hex (2010)
The U.S. military makes a scarred bounty hunter with warrants on his own head an offer he cannot refuse: in exchange for his freedom, he must stop a terrorist who is ready to unleash Hell on Earth.
Comic adaptation as steampunk Western; a good example that the sum of well-produced parts don't result into a good movie.
Maltin BOMB: "Dreadful comic-book/Western hybrid...Buried beneath a mound of makeup, Brolin can't make the character (introduced in a 1972 comic book) come alive. Fox is embarrassingly bad and the script is incoherent. Brief running time suggests heavy cuts were made during production, but considering the mess on-screen that's probably a good thing."

Kraftwerk - Pop Art (2013)
Documentary about the band Kraftwerk and its influence an contemporary pop music and culture.
Insightful with good concert clips, but not nearly as comprehensive than the 2008 documentary Kraftwerk and the Electronic Revolution.
