It’s hard to say what’s best about big-bearded funnyman Zach Galifianakis’ music selections in his iTunes playlist. It could be the insight we get on The Hangover star’s listening habits, or simply that the list is a decent jumble of tunes all by itself. Perhaps the best part is the descriptions he writes for the tracks, explaining why each particular one is significant to him. Here we learn that he has been a “Prince man” all his life, he dreams of writing an album for Modest Mouse and that Rufus Wainwright makes him want to be gay. Fun, right? Check... read more
Found in: Movies, News10 Songs I'm Pretty Sure Are About Masturbation
(Above: Judge Reinhold gets busted by Phoebe Cates in Fast Times at Ridgemont High) Masturbation. I remember when that was a dirty word.

Found in: Music, FeaturesSix Albums to Get Excited About in 2009
When I wrote my Five Movies to Get Excited About in 2009 list a couple weeks ago, ostensibly, I was providing a reader service. But really, I was getting as pumped up about those movies as anyone reading that post. In fact, I'm listening to Ready to Die right now, looking forward to taking in a showing of Notorious this weekend. Looking forward to stuff is fun, and it makes actually experiencing said stuff just that much more awesome (or, alternately, disappointing).Editing the news section of PasteMagazine.com also gets me hyped about forthcoming albums on a daily basis. From big... read more
