Listen hard enough, and you'll hear it: a slurping noise from the next table over. Loud jazz and the clanking sounds of metal soup pots can't drown it out. Order your own soup, and you'll be making those same slurping noises in no time.

Who knew three little chipmunks could show so much strength? Alvin and company stayed near the top of the box office list this week with a #3 showing, losing only to the mighty Nic Cage (we never thought we'd call Nic "mighty," but there you go) and Will Smith (we've been calling him "mighty" for years). Cage's National Treasure: Book of Secrets had the third biggest Christmas opening weekend ever, after Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring and Meet the Fockers. That's, um, good company? Other notable new-ish releases include The Great Debaters, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, and The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.
We thought it was weird when a former Nader advisor filed suit against Bill Belichick for Videotapegate. But Paul Flannery at the Boston Magazine blog came across what may be the weirdest lawsuit of all time. Jonathan Lee Riches is a convicted felon who likes to file lawsuits. Flannery writes that Riches filed 36 of them in September. In the Pats-related suit, according to the Smoking Gun, Richman hand-writes, "Defendants cheated in the 2005 Superbowl...

The Brattle will be screening four of the Marx Brothers classics all day New Year's Day. A Marx Brothers marathon isn't the same as a fistful of painkillers, an ice pack, or a Bloody Mary, but some laughs might make for the best hangover cure of all. (Then again, a Thin Man marathon might be more appropriate.) The Marx Brothers Marathon will appeal to your inner post-party beast by screening Animal Crackers, Duck Soup, Horse...
Boy, oh boy. Bostonist has been watching too much of the reality TV these days. We got hooked on this season's Real World one Saturday in the early afternoon when we just sat down to kill some time, 2 hours later and we've got to know what frat boy John is going to do to piss off Svits this week, or why Paula's a bitch for being a lesbian. Don't even get us started on 8th and Ocean (we say boob job = bad idea). But it's VH1 that really takes the cake. They've got the scoop on the Soup, the Best Week Ever, a whole lineup of crappy reality shows with washed up celebrities (“celebreality”), and tonight they’ll feature the South Shore boy Jim Behrle.
Since limited edition t-shirts are "so hot right now", Bostonist can think of nothing better to take our minds off that post-St. Patty's Day hangover than checking out the Legends of Style: ICONS event at the BCA this Saturday, March 18 from 8 pm - 1 am. "ICONS will showcase artwork from more than 30 artists and designers from across the country. This time around, Future Classic [the event's host,] decided to add a...
Tenth MA District U.S. Representative William Delahunt helped broker a deal with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez to bring 12 million gallons of home heating oil to low income residents and charities in the Bay State. Our friend Paul over at A Blog Soup was quick to point out the Boston Globe report on this deal. Delahunt, working with Citizens Energy Corporation, secured a 40% discount on the 12 million gallons of oil arriving in Massachusetts over the next four months from Venezuela. The discounted oil is earmarked for use by charities and the state's poor.
