I'm going to do something now that I have yet to do in the 930 previous posts from Craig's MovieBlog.
I'm going to pimp a friend's product.
It has nothing to do with movies, but well, I've got these two kids, right? And the crap that they listen to is scientifically proven to melt your brain... and all they do is ask for the same songs over and over again, so I'm screwed. I am literally dumber now than I was before having children, and I blame the music. I missed my shot at teaching them to like Dave Matthews and U2, so it's Radio Disney for me... forever. (Why are Hannah Montana and Miley Ray Cyrus the same person? I'm baffled...)
But my friend Rob over at www.thatbabydvd.com decided to do something about it. Not only do I have RIDICULOUS respect for him for having the stones to leave corporate America behind and follow his passion, but he created an awesome CD and DVD that kids will actually like, and it's music that we adults know and appreciate (Springsteen, Fleetwood Mac, 10,000 Maniacs, etc.) You can see the song list here. I'm telling you, if you have kids, and you don't laugh at the video for "Brass in Pocket," well, you're just dead inside.
Or, if you have friends with young children, please... think of them on a Saturday in the car, listening to The Wiggles over and over and over again... until the father decides to park his "Big Red Car," get out, and stab a Starbucks barista in the eye.
Do everyone involved a favor, and grab a copy of That Baby DVD or CD for them.
Happy Holidays.
