Favorite Paul McCartney songs

The Used: Lies for the Liars : F

By Chris Green and George Jahn · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

If you buy this CD at Best Buy you get two bonus tracks. My God, I don't think I could take any more.

By Benny Goldman · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

If you want to spend your summer watching something much more real than "reality" TV, pick up "The Wire."

Letters from Iwo Jima: Film: B Extras: B-

By John Barnett · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

No Clint Eastwood film except "Unforgiven" has ever floored me, and "Letters from Iwo Jima" isn't an exception.

Paul McCartney at 64...

By Zack Teibloom and Tariq Panja · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

Now, all these years later, those early Paul albums have an offhand charm that is really appealing, and I think they have held up surprisingly well.

Paul McCartney Memory Almost Full : B

By Zack Teibloom and Kim Cullman · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

The album falls short of classics like McCartney, Ram and some of the work Paul did with Wings, but it cracks his top 10 albums and is definitely worth a few listens.

Online only: Epic Movie: Film: C- Extras: C

By Jacob Stewart , Tim O Brien and Tim O'Brien · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

Is this really the standard of American humor? Let's hope not, because a few well-placed pop culture references are all that saves "Epic Movie" from being an epic disaster.

I put my reputation on the fact that this movie is hilarious. -Zack Teibloom, Weekend Editor

Knocked Up: A

By Zack Teibloom and Kelsey Nash · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

This film is consistently laugh-out-loud funny, and even the plot points that would feel bogged down in a typical romantic comedy are perfect here.

dirty jokes

Apocalypto: Film: C Extras: D

By Andrea Alumbaugh and Ted Bridis · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

To make the most out of this movie, watch it on a big screen with surround sound and expect a visceral experience without much of an actual story.

Online only: Ozzy Osbourne Black Rain : C-

By Joe Livarchik and Ari Shifron · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

Now? Well, Ozzy proves he can still rock, but he leaves the listener with a kind-of-alright record, as well as to wonder if this is the best metal fans can expect from a 58 year-old Godfather of metal.

Bug: F

By Jacob Stewart and Eric Anderson · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

I suggest you take some sincere advice: Step on this "Bug" on your way to a different movie.

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End: A

By Chris Wisner · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

Some might call me crazy, but I found "At World's End" to be the best film in the trilogy.

The National: Boxer : A

By Brian McFillen and Emily Pickett · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

Slow and powerful, with fire seething between the cracks in its surface, The National's Boxer rolls past the ears like lava, although it is a lot easier to sing along to.

Paul McCartney post-Beatles

By Zack Teibloom and Andy Hollinden · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

To help guide you through his diverse solo collection, we here at WEEKEND bought as many Paul albums as we could find, got a lot of help from some experts (rock music historians Glenn Gass and Andy Hollinden) and set out to give you a guide to post-Beatles Paul McCartney.

Maroon 5: It Won't Be Soon Before Long B

By Andy Shore and Heather Haemker · Thursday, May 31,2007 12 a.m.

In this album, Maroon 5 really shows what kind of sound they are capable of. Hopefully, we'll be hearing more of it in the future.
