Perry Farrell of Jane’s Addiction was supposed to be there…
but according to Tom Morello…
they couldn’t find Perry that day…
so they called their buddy Maynard instead!

Welcome to Movies That Matter, where we look at three movies worth knowing about before the weekend begins.
This week: Godzilla is back, Bill Hader is putting on the Cat’s hat, and John Malkovich and Sam Rockwell are headed to Easter Island.
(Countdown Video)
What’s new… again? Godzilla is stomping back into theaters with Godzilla Minus Zero.
(Godzilla Minus Zeroclip – “We didn’t finish the job”)
The story picks up in 1949, two years after Godzilla Minus One, with Japan barely getting back on its feet when – well – Godzilla déjà vu.
(Godzilla Minus Zeroclip – Action scenes with Godzilla close)
And it’s the first Japanese production ever filmed for IMAX.
And now, something a little less destructive, sort of.
(The Cat in the Hatclip – “I’m the Cat in the Hat!”)
Bill Hader voices The Cat in the Hat in his first full-length animated theatrical movie.
This time, the Cat gets assigned to help two kids who just moved to a new town.
(The Cat in the Hatclip – “You Betcha!”)
Even the Cat has a day job now.
And finally, let’s head to Easter Island.
(Wild Horse Nineclip – “Name a country that I can’t spell”)
John Malkovich and Sam Rockwell star in Wild Horse Nine as two CIA agents on a very unusual assignment.
Steve Buscemi is their boss, Martin McDonagh is directing, and yes… there are giant stone heads involved.
(Wild Horse Nineclip – “Giant Heads”)
That’s this weekend’s Movies That Matter. From Godzilla-sized destruction to Cat in the Hat chaos to the CIA on Easter Island, there should be something waiting for you at the movies.
Until next time – keep on popping the corn.

Welcome to Music That Matters with 3, 2, 1 New Music Monday.
This week: Queens of the Stone Age finds perfection in the imperfect, Dominic Fike tries to quit smoking, and Nickelback brings basically everybody along.
Plus, new Gracie Abrams, Ryan Gosling resurrects Dead Man’s Bones, and Thriller gets a new spin on vinyl.
(Countdown Video)
3 major album drops.
Kicking it off – Queens of the Stone Age with their ninth studio album, Perfecth (flash a blue card – used in a past episode)
(“Insignificant Other” clip)
And yes, Perfecth (looking at the blue card) is spelled that way on purpose.
Josh Homme says nothing in this world is perfect, but everything can somehow seem “perfecth.”
(“Where The Goth Girls At?” clip)
Next up – Dominic Fike with with his 3rd studio album How to Quit Smoking.
(“Wallflower” clip)
At 30 years old, newly sober and now a father, Dominic seems to have put on his big boy pants and grown up.
But don’t worry – the album still bounces between rap, rock, garage and those laid-back Florida vibes he does so well.
(“Pangea” clip)
And now – the band that everybody likes to hate on, but then keeps listening to
(“Rattle the Cage” clip)
Yes – it’s Nickelback with Everything Under the Sun
And that album – title pretty much sums up the guest list.
John 5. Sammy Hagar. Tommy Lee. Brent Smith.
They even have Ryan Reynolds introducing a song.
That’s certainly… everything under the sun.
(“Lift Somebody Up” clip)
2 new singles.
This is Gracie Abrams with “Here You Come, There You Go.”
(“Here You Come, There You Go” clip)
This is one of five new songs from the deluxe edition of Daughter From Hell coming out later this month.
Next – Dead Man’s Bones with “Lost in the Night.”
(“Lost in the Night” clip)
You know what that means – Ryan Gosling and Zach Shields are making music together again.
This is their first new song since 2009.
Welcome back, gentlemen.
(Record Scratch video)
And finally, one vinyl pick.
Michael Jackson’s Thriller.
(“Thriller” clip)
For the first time, the biggest-selling album of all time is available on red-and-black marble vinyl.
Nine songs. Seven Top 10 hits. Eight Grammys in one night.
Yeah, the album was named correctly: Thriller
(“Billie Jean” clip)
That’s your 3 albums, 2 singles, and 1 vinyl for the week.
This has been 3, 2, 1 New Music Monday
Until next time.
