Afghan Whigs on Their Reunion Tour, Broken Promises
When Rolling Stone spoke with Afghan Whigs frontman Greg Dulli a few months ago, he said the band's reunion tour wouldn't involve new music. But since then, they've released a cover of Marnie "Quenie" Lyons' "See and Don't See" for free on their website. Dulli has a simple explanation for his change of heart. "I also said I'd never play with this band again. As far as making grand pronouncements about anything in my life, I'm never going to do that again," Dulli said during a visit to the Rolling Stone studio last week %ndash just a few days the Afghan Whigs made their triumpha From: RollingStone Views: 5177 35 ratings Time: 02:31 More in Entertainment

Travers: Josh Brolin is Amazing in 'Men in Black 3'
Peter Travers went into Men in Black 3 convinced that it would suck, but as it turns out, it's pretty good. Most of the fun comes from Josh Brolin's performance as the young version of Tommy Lee Jones' character. Brolin channels Jones' laconic vibe brilliantly, and he has an easy rapport with Will Smith that is more entertaining than any of the movie's special effects.

Peter Travers: 'The Dictator' Is Inconsistent, But Funny
Peter Travers says that Sacha Baron Cohen's latest movie The Dictator is not consistently funny, but when it's good, it's absolutely hilarious. One joke, in which Cohen's ruthless despot extols the virtues of dictatorship in way that closely mirrors the One Percent versus the Ninenty-Nine Percent rhetoric of the Occupy movement, delivers the kind of laughs "that stick in your throat." It may not be as good as Borat, but the inspired moments are worth it.

Peter Travers: 'Dark Shadows' Is Luscious, Yet Boring
Peter Travers says that while Tim Burton and Johnny Depp are one of the best teams in movies, their remake of the Sixties vampire soap Dark Shadows is only entertaining for about 40 minutes. Burton delivers luscious visuals and Depp is typically freaky and funny, but ultimately, the plot spins its wheels for well over an hour after the novelty wears off. Dark Shadows marks Burton and Depp's eighth movie together (the full list is: Ed Wood,�Edward Scissorhands,�Sweeney Todd,�Alice and Wonderland,�Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Sleepy Hollow, Corpse Bride and Dark Shadows), a From: RollingStone Views: 960 9 ratings Time: 04:00 More in Entertainment

Peter Travers: 'The Avengers' Has It All
Peter Travers says that Joss Whedon's The Avengers "has it all." Not only does it bring together superheroes from other Marvel Comics movies like Iron Man, The Hulk, Captain America and Thor, but it is a genuinely great and fun movie made by a guy who understands the characters and how to craft a good story. Everyone in the cast gets their moment to shine, but Mark Ruffalo stands out as the best cinematic Hulk yet, and Tom Hiddleston makes being a villain really attractive as the demigod Loki.

Here We Go Magic Count Thom Yorke, Nigel Godrich as fans
As the Brooklyn psychedelic-rockers Here We Go Magic prepare for the May release of their new album, A Different Ship, produced by longtime Radiohead collaborator Nigel Godrich, they still seem a bit stunned by the serendipity of their big break. Godrich discovered the group after being dragged to their drowsy, early-afternoon set at the 2010 Glastonbury Festival by his friend, one Thom Yorke, a fact that most members of the band did not realize until after their final notes rang.
