London 2012 Olympic Games BBC [Blu-ray] (2012)

I ran across this while poking around online today. It seems from all the reviews I have read that the NBC home video release was somewhat of a bust. I have high hopes for this release though. This set was produced by the BBC and includes the full opening ceremony 7 hours of highlights and the closing ceremony.  I don't know if I'll ever be able to get a hold of a copy, it's currently going for $80 on amazon.com, but I remain hopeful that I can catch it someday.

Rage Against The Machine Plays L.A.'s Memorial Coliseum

Rage's history is intertwined with L.A.'s Olympic history. In addition to the recently played concert mentioned in the above video they played their last concert together at the Grand Olympic Auditorium in late summer of the year 2000. As you can see they have since returned to touring together, but the recording of that last concert remains their last album released to date.

The Simpsons make their way to Vancouver in "Boy Meets Curl"

"Marge, this will be perfect for both of us! It has sweeping for you and bowling for me!!"

The Simpsons episode that aired last night (Season 21, Ep. 12) featured the Simpsons making their way to the Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Of course hilarity ensued. You can watch the episode over on HULU for the next five weeks. After it is pulled offline it will eventually be available on the Season 12 DVD. Enjoy!
