‘Payback’
Hey, remeber when Mel Gibson used to play all those crazy guys who were just complete and total bad mutha’s? “Payback” was the perfect example of giving the audience a bad guy to root for simply because the other bad guys were much worse.
Music
Smooth Criminal
Ah, the King of Pop. Was such a good song it even mad Alien Ant Farm money. But, oh, how good the original was — If just for the leaning. Oh Michael Jackson, how cool do you have to be to make leaning cool?
Misc.
Outlaws, Bandits
When was the last time we had a Robin Hood-type, Jesse James running around helping the helpless? Heck, when was the last time we had a successful criminal who we could all enjoy?
Games
The Other Grand Theft Auto Games
Remeber one and two? With the bird’s eye view driving? I’m more concerned about how Lance betrayed me at the end of Vice City or how I would always wear flip-flips around San Andreas. It was funny how fast CJ could run in those.
Fashion
Bright Orange
Those prison jump-suits must be fashionable, because it’s easy to spot many people mixing it in with their camo jackets in West Virginia. And I always thought DeeBo looked cool in “Next Friday” wearing his.
