RETROCRUSH MEETS THE BIONIC WOMAN!

When I was in kindergarten, round 1975, I had a big crush on Lindsay Wagner. I even drew a crayon picture of her kissing me that said, "I love Lindsay Wagner". My mom found it in my room, and teasingly asked me if I drew it. I was so embarrassed (cause girls were supposed to be icky) that I told her I didn't draw it and someone must have put in in my room when I wasn't looking. Anyway, she's my first crush of any sort, and she's always had a classy beauty and personality that has held up just fine through the decades.

I was lucky enough to finally meet her at the 2008 San Diego Comic Convention. I got an autographed photo, a few nice words and a photo snapped with her. I was so nervous in line to see her (and I've done some sit down interviews with some outrageously famous people). I was genuinely blushing and enamored all over again. She still looks fantastic. She simply shook my hand and said "Have a fun day!" when we parted. I will never wash the hand again. Hell...who am I kidding, I don't wash my hands at all!

I ACTUALLY LIKED CLONE WARS?

I've never made any secret of my intense dislike of the Star Wars prequels. But despite bitching about them nonstop since they've been released, I continue to watch them. There's still something inexplicably watchable about anything Star Wars. For everything I hate about them, there's at least a handful of things I still enjoy with each film. The Clone Wars film is completely aimed at the under 10 set that will buy the new Lego and Hasbro toys, but I found myself enjoying it way more than I expected. I love the character of Jabba The Hutt and really enjoyed seeing him again in this film. Plus his cross-dressing effeminate uncle Zero is a so shockingly bizarre of a Star Wars character, I can't believe Lucas approved his creation. It ran a bit long, but it was good enough to watch once. It takes place between Episodes II and III and doesn't add anything significant to the stories, but it's a fun enough throwaway tale. If the upcoming Cartoon Network series is just half as good as this, then they'll have a hit on their hands. I know I'm giving this one a free pass here. The nerd rage inside me knows that I should be pissed that nearly every character has a new voice actor and that the new music sucks balls, but I found myself enjoying it despite all of that. Maybe you will, too. The battles are fun, and the characters ain't half bad. If you have a kid that'd like to see it with ya, go...otherwise wait for the DVD.

THE TOP 20 MOST ANNOYING SONGS

About a month ago we conducted a poll of the worst songs of all time. With a staggering 4,000 responses, these are the results, as ranked by vote count. Sure each one of these is somebody's favorite song, and without a doubt you have some worse choices that aren't here, either. There are certainly songs that are technically worse, but these are those special bad songs that became popular and played so many millions of times that you want to pound rusty nails into your skull to make the noise stop. As the universal official keepers of pop culture, it is retroCRUSH's duty and pleasure to bring them to you. Plus we have videos to watch for EACH ONE!
