Pop culture moratoriums, Volume 1
The following need to NEVER happen again:
1) ANY commercial, jingle, movie trailer, theme song, ANYthing...that uses Natasha Bedingfield's UNWRITTEN. I USED to really like this song...now it's like being in Hell to hear it. God forbid the "creative" types actually BE such.
2) Any music video that features artists singing on top of a Los Angeles skyscraper, the same view of the Library Tower in the background.
3) ANYthing filmed in the (dry) LA River.
4) ANYthing filmed on those SAME LA River industrial-area highways & bridges.
*Regarding the last 2 points...listen, trust me, I recognize the photogenic appeal of everything to do with the LA River, but you're just being LAZY if you can't think of ANY other evocative, intriguing, picturesque LA-area scenery to highlight for the masses. I detest follow-the-herd laziness. Jesus, put the spotlight on Hermosa Beach or something...
