Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz has declared war on the term "douchebag."

Something tells us it's going to be largely an internal conflict.

Wentz took to his blog to list his Top 9 Gripes of 2008. Number 4 on the list is the term "douchebag." Is it the fact that being called a douchebag hurts his feeling or that it's offensive to hygenic women that he ojects to? Nope... he just thinks it makes you sound lame.

Blender thinks so.

The magazine is touting the Simon Cowell discovery (she won his British X Factor show) and new pop sensation as “Pop's Next Megastar."

The girl can sing and now that Americans have a face (and body) to go with the voice, we think she’ll be hugely successful. We like our pop stars presentable, hence the downfall of Brit Brit.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
