Culver City, CA (8/31/09) – Four of Hollywood’s most beloved and critically lauded stars team up to steal laughs in the caper comedy THE MAIDEN HEIST, on DVD October 27, 2009, from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. A deliciously smart heist film blending the traditions of Ocean’s 11 and Wild Hogs, THE MAIDEN HEIST stars Academy Award® Winners Morgan Freeman (Best Supporting Actor, Million Dollar Baby, 2004), Christopher Walken (Best Supporting Actor, The Deer Hunter, 1978), and Academy Award® Nominee William H. Macy (Best Supporting Actor, Fargo, 1996) as security guards at an art museum who plan to steal three of their favorite pieces from the museum. Co-starring Academy Award® Winner Marcia Gay Harden (Best Supporting Actress, Pollock, 2000) in a hilarious turn as Walken’s controlling wife, THE MAIDEN HEIST is a clever, well acted romp that proves you’re never too old to have some new fun.
THE MAIDEN HEIST breaks in on DVD loaded with bonus features, including a director, writer and producer commentary, deleted scenes, a bloopers reel and making-of featurette. Priced to own at an SLP of $24.96, it would be a crime to miss THE MAIDEN HEIST on DVD this October 27!
Synopsis
Their plan wasn’t exactly a work of art. It was a stroke of genius. But now the perfect crime is turning into a perfect disaster in this madcap comedy featuring Academy Award® winners Morgan Freeman, Christopher Walken, Marcia Gay Harden and Academy Award® nominee William H. Macy.
Charles, Roger and George are the very picture of honest security guards. But when they learn their favorite artworks are being sent to another museum, they concoct a plan to switch the real masterpieces with fakes. All goes well until a mistake forces these first-time thieves into a last-minute escapade in this comedy caper.
THE MAIDEN HEIST was directed by comedy veteran Peter Hewitt (Zoom, Garfield, Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey) and written by comedy scribe Michael LeSieur (You, Me and Dupree). It was produced by Rob Paris, Lori McCreary and Bob Yari. The film has a run time of approximately 90 minutes. It has been rated PG-13 for some strong language, nudity and brief fantasy violence.

“The first single off weezer’s upcoming seventh album ‘Raditude’ is catchy, addictive and freakin’ cool!”
BAND: weezer

- (If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To
The alternative rock band weezer returns with their latest single “(If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To” from their seventh album “Raditude” (planned for an Oct. 2009 release).
Produced by Butch Walker (of Marvelous 3) who has produced songs for Pink, Katy Perry, Avril Lavigne and Japanese female rock duo Puffy, the latest single features an addictive, fun and enjoyable style, somewhat reminiscent of the Cheap Trick classic “I Want You to Love Me”. But that’s not a bad thing… It’s actually kind of interesting but for the most part, fun and enjoyable.
The track is acoustic guitar and percussion driven with enjoyable vocals, catchy rhythm and entertaining lyrics and definitely a departure from a lot of their past hits. For the most part, I enjoy hearing something different from the band.
Granted, it will be interesting to see what kind of album “Raditude” will be. I know plenty of fans who want the return of the band’s power cords and something upbeat and electric guitar driven and this track, may not sooth their souls but for the most part, I enjoyed the track and yeah, it may be commercially appealing for those not familiar with their music but as long as the style of “(If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To” is not indicative of the overall upcoming album, I definitely look forward in seeing what the group has to offer, especially with their other track collaborations with Butch Walker, especially with Jermaine Dupri.
Overall, “(If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To” is an entertaining single from the band. Different, but then again weezer has been one of those bands that have never shied away from experimenting with there music, so although this track did seem a bit Cheap Trick-ish, I really enjoyed it!
I definitely look forward to their upcoming album!

| Saihuun/AAA (Attack All Around) – Break your name/Break Down/Summer Revolution (A J!-ENT World Groove CD Single Review) |
August 31, 2009 by Dennis Amith · Leave a Comment
“The 21st CD single from AAA is another fantastic release from the group featuring three solid triple-A sided singles which includes the debut of the 15-member group known as Saihuun.”
ARTIST: Saihuun/AAA (Attack All Around)
CD SINGLE: Break your name/Break Down/Summer Revolution
LABEL: avex trax
CATALOG #: AVCD-31701/B
DURATION: 27:43
RELEASE DATE: July 29, 2009

DVD: Region 2, 16:9 LB, Duration: 7 minutes

- Break your name – 20090429 – C.C. Lemon HALL LOVE-
AAA’s 21st CD single triple-A sided single for the Summer titled “Break your name/Break Down/Summer Revolution” continues the trend of AAA releasing four different versions of their CD single. One that features a normal CD version with 11 tracks, the second version that features a Summer-themed cover featuring all seven members and comes with a DVD of “Summer Revolution”, a third version featuring the seven members with Takahiro Nishijima in the center and comes with a DVD for “Break Down” and a fourth version of the CD single which I’m reviewing, which features for the first time, the mysterious 15-member boy band known as Saihuun.
Saihuun’s first single “Break Your Name” consists of the five members of AAA but ten other members that no one knows the true identity of at this time. For the single cover, each has a hood on their face with kanji letters large on top sporting “Saihuun”. And this version comes with a DVD featuring a music video for “Break your name” and a live performance of Saihuun at C.C. Lemon Hall from April 2009.
The single kicks off with “Break your name” by Saihuun and features an upbeat, synth pop track and although I think that the members that are singing primarily are members of AAA (yes, the guys have performed live with hoods covering their faces), I am guessing that Saihuun may be similar to EXILE in which the primary members on vocals are AAA and the others are possibly background dancers similar to the recently expanded EXILE.
The second track “Break Down” is an uptempo dance track that incorporates break beats but overall, a very solid track from AAA. And possibly one of the most exciting upbeat tracks I have heard from the group in awhile. Definitely a solid track and wonderful vocals from Misako Uno and Takahiro Nishijima and crew.
The third track on the CD single “Summer Revolution” features the female duo of AAA – Misako Uno and Chiaki Ito. Definitely an upbeat track with that trademark avex trax club sound.
The remaining three tracks are the instrumental versions of the three vocal tracks.
As for the DVD, the DVD includes the music video for “Break your name” and a live performance of the song by Saihuun.
The music video features all 15 members of Saihuun performing and dancing and members of AAA reveal themselves when they take off the hoods while the other ten keep their hoods on. The group then performs on top of a CG background of a futuristic city or an all white background.
The live performance of “Break your name” was done at C.C. Lemon Hall LIVE back in April 29, 2009. Mainly featuring the 15 members of Saihuun and of course, all members in their hoods. So, you really don’t know who is singing (well, actually you can tell its probably Takahiro Nishijima, Naoya Urata and rap by Mitsuhiro Hidaka. While everyone is primarily dancing. And of course to further confuse the audience, all members of AAA then join Saihuun onstage to thank them. But if you pause the DVD, you will then notice that only ten members of Saihuun remain on stage.
As for the CD insert, the insert is a tri-fold with the lyrics and production credits for the songs. Also a flier which contains information on AAA’s “4th Anniversary Live” and an AAA collector’s card of one of the members.
Overall, the CD single is pretty solid.
Although, I still wish that they would stop with the four CD single versions. I know, it has worked with other idol groups but I can imagine how costly it is for the fans trying to collect all releases. But with each version, they offer extra tracks and the main three which include a DVD offers a different music video. As for the three A-sided tracks, all tracks are all enjoyable, uptempo dance tracks and pretty much showcases the music that we have loved from AAA, which is that synth pop club music that avex trax artists are known for.
As for Saihuun, it’s an interesting concept and it will be interesting to see if the group is the real deal and is permanent or if it’s just a marketing gimmick, or the fact that the group is following a similar direction like the music group EXILE with many members while a few sing and most of them dance. I have no idea how far avex trax will be taking Saihuun for the near future.
Overall, another fantastic AAA release! If you are a fan of AAA, this single is definitely recommended!
