New 'Godzilla' already gets my roar of approval - CNET

The first full-length trailer for the new "Godzilla" is out, and Crave writer Amanda Kooser, a longtime admirer of the beast, hopes it lives up to its monstrous legacy.

You've probably heard there's a new "Godzilla" coming, and the pointy fella's not looking to give humanity a hug. The last time this happened on a large scale, with the 1998 "Godzilla" remake, I yawned, dragged my butt over to the theater to watch Matthew Broderick go to battle, and left feeling thoroughly unimpressed.

I have memories of weekend mornings as a child, hiding behind a pillow as my brother and I watched old black-and-white monster movies on television. "The Deadly Mantis" was particularly terrifying, but I always got a thrill when spiny-backed Godzilla showed up, rising out of the waves, hauling a desperate nuclear legacy behind him. It didn't matter if he was stomping on cities or going at it with Mothra. Godzilla was a star of my childhood movie memories.

It's hard for slick modern films with overloaded GGI graphics to rekindle the visceral sensations of watching these movies as a kid. But the trailer for the new "Godzilla" is as close as I've come since I reached adulthood.

There are some interesting choices going on in the trailer, not the least of which is Bryan Cranston's hirsute head. As a resident of Albuquerque and a "Breaking Bad" fan, I have an immediate fondness for any production Cranston is in. I have a sort of blind faith that he'll pick a solid script and that "Godzilla" will be good based solely on his decision to show up for filming.

Cranston is all over the trailer. He's growling, "You're not fooling anybody when you say what happened was a natural disaster. You're lying!" Shivers. There's something rising up out the water. The torch arm has been ripped from the Statue of Liberty. There's a big fat reference to the original 1954 film. There's a nuclear explosion, so we know it's not going to leave that crucial part of the legend out of the mix. These are all promising signs.

It doesn't look like there will be any scrimping on the special effects. We see CGI all over the place in the ruined cityscapes and airplane crashes, but I'm fostering a belief that it will all be in the service of a strong core story with a human connection I'll actually care about. Because, Bryan Cranston.

The trailer could have played coy with us. It could have gone all "Cloverfield," but instead we get a pretty good glimpse at Godzilla's screaming maw. This is totally the right call, because everybody knows what Godzilla looks like. There's no use in trying to hide it.

My "Godzilla" optimism could turn out to be misplaced, but my hopes for this movie are running strong. We could just look at this as another dark reboot in the ongoing trend of dark reboots, a la "Batman Begins." But the thing is, it's hard to get much darker than the original 1954 Japanese "Godzilla." I'm not talking about the re-cut 1956 Americanized version with Raymond Burr, which was released as "Godzilla, King of the Monsters!"

Before the new film comes out on May 16, it's worth going back to the beginning, which I plan to do. It's worth revisiting the fear, the sense of uncontrolled power, and the aftermath of nuclear scars left on Japan, all expressed by a beast that rose out of the sea and broke through the fragile constructs of mankind. These thematic goals may be too lofty for a Hollywood blockbuster, but I hope the new "Godzilla" at least strives to touch that primal part of us that still wonders what lurks deep beneath the waves.

Album Review: Kid Cudi - Satellite Flight: The Journey to Mother Moon - Consequence of Sound

Kid Cudi originally intended Satellite Flight to be a short EP, bridging the gap between his ill-received Indicud and the forthcoming follow-up to his successful breakthrough Man on the Moon series. What resulted instead was a 10-song, full-length record of new tracks, which he dropped Beyoncé-style in a surprise midnight iTunes release on the same day one of hip-hop’s most anticipated albums (ScHoolboy Q’s Oxymoron) was set to come out.

This breezy method of releasing an album might emphasize Cudi’s reputation as an anti-establishment slacker, but more likely it was calculated. That just about sums up Cudi’s entire ethos: He claims to not give a fuck, but his music is too meticulous for that to be true.

Cudi composes complete albums better than the majority of his contemporaries, with songs logically weaving in and out of each other, while maintaining a consistent overarching theme. You certainly can’t fault him for his ambition.

A narrative concept similar to Cudi’s original intent — that Satellite Flight is the bridge back to The Man on the Moon – could be pulled from the album if you try hard enough.  A contrived interpretation of the triumphant horns on “Return of the Moon Man (Original Score)”, for instance, could be that they signify Cudi’s arrival at the destination he was aiming for the whole time. Out of that forced context, it’s more akin to the stock music soundtrack for a low-budget sci-fi flick.

While that string-heavy song drags and bores, other tracks display Cudi’s undeniable production prowess. “Copernicus Landing” is Cudi beat-making at its best, a slowly building track with intricate synths, glitches, and a short vocal sample towards the end. “In My Dreams 2015” is as dreamy and forward-thinking as its title suggests.

The features on Indicud ranged from Too $hort to Father John Misty, and each of Cudi’s previous albums has found space for unorthodox guest artists. Aside from the expected production co-credits with frequent collaborator Dot Da Genius, the only guest verse on Satellite Flight comes courtesy of Raphael Saadiq, who improves the sex track “Balmain Jeans” with his smooth, soulful vocals.

In addition to the two WZRD-produced, guitar-centric tracks that start the album (“Going to the Ceremony” and “Satellite Flight”), Dot Da Genius also lends his producing hands to “Too Bad I have To Destroy You Now”, the flittering, sparkly, synth-driven beat over which Cudi finally reintroduces his old flow.

That track marks the chronological midpoint of Satellite Flight, and also its musical high point, as the album starts getting stale around the time Cudi starts groaning about his heartache on the following track, “Internal Bleeding”. Cudi’s attempt at switching his flow to a punk-esque snarl is well-intentioned, but not quite well-delivered. The “no one understands me” schtick is part of what initially made Cudi unique and intriguing, but here it just sounds grating.

Cudi’s variable flow and original production should make Satellite Flight one of the most innovative albums in hip-hop right now. Maybe it’s because we’ve grown accustomed to Cudi’s style and the influence it’s had over other artists, but at this point, it just sounds a little bit stale.

Despite several strong sections, including some of Cudi’s best work in years, the album ends up being exactly what he intended it to be — a bridge between two things. A bridge, however, needs to lean on something stable. It can’t stand on its own.

Essential Tracks: “Too Bad I Have To Destroy You Now”, “Copernicus Landing”

Tesla Motors (TSLA) eyes battery factory to boost electric car production (+video) - Christian Science Monitor

Automakers and consumer electronics manufacturers increasingly turn to lithium-ion batteries to power their products. After Tesla Motors (TSLA) reportedly consumed a significant chunk of battery output produced in 2013, the company may begin working with other manufacturers to produce their own battery supply.

The 210,000 plug-in electric vehicles sold around the world last year used a lot of lithium-ion batteries.

Tesla Motors has announced plans to build a factory that will drastically reduce fuel-cell costs and ultimately produce more lithium-ion batteries per year than the total amount currently produced worldwide.

But if startup automaker Tesla Motors (TSLA) has its way, it will soon need as many lithium-ion cells (of the 18650 format it uses) as are now built worldwide.

That's why the company plans to release more details this week on its upcoming "gigafactory," a huge U.S. plant to build the cells it needed to let it boost production from last year's 24,000 electric cars to more than 100,000 by 2018.

Already electric cars are consuming huge amounts of lithium-ion cells--and if the sector grows as expected, a whole new industrial base for battery production may be required.

42 cars, 5 gigawatt-hours

Here's the math from last year--Tesla's first full year of production for its Model S electric luxury sport sedan.

Building off the hard work of Jose Pontes at EV-Sales.Blogspot.com, which tracks sales of 42 different electric vehicles around the world, the sector appears to have consumed about 4800 MegaWatt-hours (MWh) of lithium-ion batteries.

Market research has predicted that in 2013 the total global lithium-ion battery market–excluding cars–would be about 40,000 MWh (with a healthy margin of error).

Add in the auto sector, and electric vehicles already represent roughly one-tenth of global lithium-ion cell use. And this comes merely three years after the December 2010 debuts of the Nissan Leaf and Chevy Volt.

Tesla vs Nissan

Then came the Tesla Model S, which went into volume production in fall 2012. Though it was outsold more than two-to-one by the Nissan Leaf, its much bigger battery pack meant the California carmaker used far more lithium-ion capacity per car.

Tesla has said that more than 70 percent of Tesla Model S cars sold in 2013 were the version with the larger 85-kWh battery pack. The company expects that percentage to decrease somewhat over time, as Model S buyers evolve from "early adopters" to "early majority" types.

This suggests that the average Model S ships with 77 to 78 kWh of batteries. Multiplying by the 22,477 vehicles the company sold worldwide last year, we find that the company's lithium-ion battery consumption amounted to about 1750 MWh--a bit more than one-third of the industry's battery usage.

The much larger number of Nissan Leafs sold last year consumed about 1100 MWh. Together, those two electric cars represented about 60 percent of the vehicle sector's lithium-ion use last year.

Tesla vs Apple

Tesla's battery consumption in 2013 was probably about half that of Apple, its Californian corporate colleague.

Apple is reported to have sold 71 million iPads and 150 million iPhones in its fiscal 2013. Without knowing the exact product mix, we might estimate the average iPad battery to be 30 Watt-hours and the average iPhone battery to be 5.4 Watt-hours. [See note at end of story for more details.]

Apple's battery consumption in its fiscal 2013–which doesn't actually match calendar 2013–would thus be about 3000 MWh: 2100 MWh from tablets, 800 MWh from phones. (We rounded up to reflect the batteries in Apple's laptops.)

This may give credence to speculation that Tesla and Apple may partner in developing the GigaFactory, and that batteries may have been discussed when executives of the two companies met secretly last year.

While Tesla and Apple use different battery chemistries, economies of scale may allow a GigaFactory to produce batteries of any chemistry more cheaply.

Other makers

Though the Chevy Volt outsold the Tesla Model S in 2013, its much smaller battery led to a much lower lithium-ion cell consumption, at about 450 MWh.

This was still enough to put the Volt's battery use into third place among plug-in electric carmakers.

The diminutive battery of the Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid, on the other hand, meant that 2013's fourth-highest selling plug-in vehicle ranked only eighth in lithium-ion battery use, behind the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, Renault Zoe, Renault Kangoo ZE, and BYD E6.

The Chinese BYD E6 was the only other electric vehicle featuring a Tesla-size battery; its 60-kWh pack propelling it into seventh place in consumption, despite modest sales estimated at 1684 vehicles.

BYD (of which famed investor Warren Buffett owns a minority share) doesn't hesitate about going big; its electric buses pack an eye-popping 324 kWh, providing 150-plus miles of range and allowing operators to recharge just once a day. 

Charging forward

Given the growth to come in the plug-in electric vehicle sector, it seems a matter of only a few years before electric vehicles represent 20, 30, even 50 percent of global lithium-ion battery use.

In only three years, electric vehicles look to have gone from zero to about ten percent of the lithium-ion battery market. Imagine where they may go in just the next three--not to mention by 2020.

[NOTE on calculations]

Per media reports, the old iPad and iPad mini had batteries of about 42 Wh and 16 Wh, respectively, for an average of 29 Wh. The newer iPad Air and retina iPad mini have batteries of 32 Wh and 24 Wh, respectively, for an average of 28 Wh.

However the sales were split, an estimate of 30 Wh as the average battery size for Apple's tablet products is probably in the ballpark.

Apple's fiscal-year 2013 runs from September to September, so phone sales would have been dominated by the iPhone 5, 4S, and 4. Their battery sizes are 5.45 Wh, 5.3 Wh, and 5.3 Wh, respectively. As such, an estimate for 5.4 Wh seems reasonable.

Kid Cudi: Did He Diss Kanye West In His New Song? - Hollywood Life

Getty

We love Kid Cudi’s just-released track ‘Too Bad I Have to Destroy You Now’ — but did the former G.O.O.D Music artist take a jab at ex-mentor Kanye West in the new song?

Kid Cudi has publicly declared that he’s cool with Kanye West and he still wants to work with him, even after leaving Yeezy’s G.O.O.D Music in April, 2013. But in Kid’s new song, “Too Bad I Have To Destroy You Now,” he seems to take a jab at Yeezy! Could this be the beginning of a new rap feud?

Kid Cudi & Kanye West Fight Rekindled? — Possible West Diss In Cudi’s New Song

Kid Cudi, 30, seems to be opening up about his past experiences with Kanye, 36, in his new song, and it certainly sounds like he’s got some animosity towards his former mentor. Check out these suggestive lyrics from ”Too Bad I Have To Destroy You Now”:

Kim & Kanye Leave Soho Home

Kylie Jenner Is Inspired By Kanye

“Things changed, for the good
He watched my back until the world started knowin’ my name
This should be in the Bible, middle finger up to the people who don’t like you
Who have no valid reason to say they never liked you.”

Whoa — it sounds like Kid Cudi is implying that Kanye isn’t happy about his protege’s success!

Kid Cudi Releases Most Impressive Album Yet

Well, if there’s any bad blood left between Kid Cudi and Kanye, it looks like Kid got the last laugh. The hip hop artist has everyone taking about his new album Satellite Flight: The Journey to Mother Moon, and from what we can tell it’s on fire! The new album features KC’s trademark sounds with a bit of a modern twist.

“I just know that people are really gonna love this music [because] it’s perfect and brings them right back to the Man on the Moon theme,” Kid Cudi said in an interview MTV. “It starts where Indicud left off perfectly, and takes you right into MOTM III. It’s like a TV show that ends with that cliffhanger.

“The album ends that way, where you get that one song and before you know it, the song is over and the album is over, but there’s a ‘to be continued…’ There’s more to the story,” Kid added.

So what do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Is Kid Cudi dissing Kanye in his new song? Let us know!

Sheriff: Former NFL star Aaron Hernandez in jailhouse fight - CNN

By Chris Boyette, CNN

updated 6:20 PM EST, Wed February 26, 2014

STORY HIGHLIGHTS

• Authorities investigate jailhouse fight between Aaron Hernandez, another inmate
• Neither man was seriously injured in the altercation
• Former NFL star is being held on a first-degree murder charge in death of Odin Lloyd

(CNN) -- Former New England Patriots star Aaron Hernandez was involved in an "altercation with another inmate" at the Bristol County House of Correction and Jail in Massachusetts, a county sheriff's department spokesman said Wednesday.

Hernandez, 24, who is being held on first-degree murder and weapons charges in the shooting death last year of his friend Odin Lloyd, had the altercation with an unidentified inmate Tuesday, said Bernie Sullivan, a spokesman for the Bristol County Sheriff's Office.

Neither man was seriously injured. Sullivan said the incident was under investigation.

Bristol County Sheriff Thomas Hodgson told CNN that jail officials will be looking at how the two came into contact because "no more than one inmate is supposed to be out at a time" in the unit where Hernandez is housed.

Hernandez's lawyer could not be reached for comment.

Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to the murder charge.

Authorities have said that Hernandez and two other men picked up Lloyd from his Boston apartment in a rental car shortly before he was found shot to death on June 17.

Surveillance cameras then captured the rental car leaving the crime scene and Hernandez carrying a gun as he returned to his home minutes later, according to authorities.

CNN's Susan Candiotti contributed to this report.

Bitcoin exchange's collapse is probed by US and Japanese regulators - Los Angeles Times

U.S. and Japanese regulators are investigating the collapse of the world's largest exchange for trading bitcoins, the virtual currency that has grown in popularity among technophiles for buying products and services online.

The separate investigations were launched Wednesday as supporters of the virtual currency insisted that the shutdown of Mt. Gox was only a temporary setback for the novel monetary system.

The failure of the Tokyo exchange, which may have included the theft of almost 750,000 bitcoins worth more than $300 million, was seen by critics as derailing prospects for the virtual currency.

But several high-profile bitcoin investors came forward in its defense Wednesday.

"Mt. Gox had to die for bitcoin to thrive. Its former role from early bitcoin days has been supplanted by better, stronger entities," said Marc Andreessen, a Web browser pioneer whose venture firm Andreessen Horowitz has invested about $50 million in bitcoin start-ups. "Every important new technology has birthing pains. PC did, Web did, bitcoin does."

Still, the shutdown of Mt. Gox came as a shock to many. According to an unverified document that purports to be from Mt. Gox, thieves have hijacked hundreds of thousands of bitcoins, about 6% of all bitcoins in circulation, which probably can't be recovered.

On Wednesday, Mt. Gox Chief Executive Mark Karpeles posted a new statement on the company's website.

"As there is a lot of speculation regarding Mt. Gox and its future, I would like to use this opportunity to reassure everyone that I am still in Japan, and working very hard with the support of different parties to find a solution to our recent issues," he wrote.

He did not say what those issues were.

Meanwhile, a Japanese government spokesman confirmed at a news conference that an investigation of Mt. Gox was underway.

There were also reports that the office of Preet Bharara, the U.S. attorney in Manhattan, and the FBI had launched investigations into Mt. Gox and other related bitcoin businesses. Bloomberg cited sources that said the agencies have requested documents from companies that offer bitcoin services.

Banking regulators stepped up calls for greater scrutiny of virtual currencies.

"While all the facts surrounding the situation at Mt. Gox in Japan are not yet clear, these developments underscore that smart, tailored regulation could play an important role in protecting consumers and the security of the money that they entrust to virtual currency firms," Ben Lawsky, New York state's first superintendent of financial services, said in a statement this week.

Sen. Joe Manchin III (D-W.Va.) went one step further and called for a ban. Manchin made his case in a letter to several agencies, including the Treasury Department, the Federal Reserve and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

"This virtual currency is currently unregulated and has allowed users to participate in illicit activity, while also being highly unstable and disruptive to our economy," he wrote. "I urge regulators to take appropriate action to limit the abilities of this highly unstable currency."

Bitcoin was created in 2009 by a programmer using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. Bitcoin is a set of Internet protocols that run across a wide number of servers around the world for regulating the creation and trading of bitcoins. It is not controlled by any nation, governing body or business.

Mt. Gox was, until recently, one of the first and largest bitcoin exchanges, a place where people could buy and sell bitcoins. As the company experienced glitches and legal issues over the last year, bitcoin traders began migrating to other exchanges that seemed more stable.

Despite the hit to bitcoin's credibility this week, many of its boosters are rallying to show that their support for it hasn't wavered. Indeed, many argue that the Mt. Gox collapse is a welcome development.

"There have been red flags around Mt. Gox for some time, which in part led to it losing its role as the dominant bitcoin exchange," said Jeremy Liew of Lightspeed Venture Partners. "Hopefully now there will be an opportunity for a U.S.-based regulatory compliant exchange to build meaningful liquidity."

Others argued the $300-million loss and the ensuing bad publicity would be a short-term issue. Indeed, they noted that after declining for a couple of weeks, the price of bitcoins has begun to rise again.

"Bitcoin is already very volatile, and the negative PR from the experience is definitely a setback for the ecosystem," said Adam Draper, who founded the start-up accelerator Boost. "But the community is rallying behind bitcoin very heavily in response, and I think it will have limited impact."

Fred Wilson, a partner at Union Square Ventures, which has invested in Coinbase, a digital wallet for using bitcoins, said on his blog that he went out and bought some bitcoins because he feels "good buying when there is blood in the streets in any market. It is my favorite time to buy."
