Today is October 1st and we are asking ourselves, “Where did Summer go?” The fact is we can’t change the season, so we are just going to have to accept that Fall is here. I know many of you are beyond excited for the Autumn season, the leaves are changing and the Halloween decor is in every store you walk into. Let’s try to ignore the fact that it’s only October 1st and the Christmas decorations are almost pushing out the Halloween merchandise. For those who are not exactly ready for winter festivies, allow me to help you embrace the current season and provide ideas to help kick-start your October. Check out THEPOPFIX’s POP5 Ways To Kick-Off October.

Everyone loves going to the theater and catching a flick that stars a great duo. Whether they are co-workers, best friends forever, or even family, it’s always enjoyable to witness the bond that forms between the two characters. More than likely you are at the theater with your friends, so you cannot help but reflect on your own friendship. The following duos can make us laugh, they can make us cry, and they can even make us laugh till we cry. THEPOPFIX is sharing our Favorite Female Movie Duos in today’s POP5 countdown.

“Ghostbusters” is currently back in theaters for a limited run to celebrate their 30th anniversary. Everyone’s favorite cast member, Bill Murray, recently had an interview with The Toronto Star and shared his casting suggestions. There have been rumors that the upcoming “Ghostbusters III” film would revolve around a female ensemble. Murray recommended Melissa McCarthy, who he will be sharing the screen with soon in “St. Vincent.” He stated that she, “Would be a good fit for a role in the next “Ghostbusters” flick. His other suggestions included Emma Stone, Kristen Wiig, and Linda Cardellini. He followed with, “There are some funny girls out there.”

Jennifer Lopez is a busy woman. She has been promoting her latest album, performing at the World Cup, and has also been filming her upcoming USA network drama “Lila & Eve.” As powerful as she may be, in her newest film she becomes the victim. The first trailer for “The Boy Next Door” has been released and it appears that she is in trouble. This psychological thriller dives deep into the consequence of forbidden attraction. Her one-time hookup with “Step Up” star Ryan Guzman has her rethinking recent decisions. Her young neighbor has now developed a stalker-like  obsession for Lopez.

Lana Del Rey has released the music video for the title track off of her album “Ultraviolence.” Her label must really love her, because her video budgets are almost non existent. The video uses her usual 8mm vintage like effects, which can be matched by downloading an app to your smart phone. The truth is, it actually was entirely filmed with an iPhone.

Not only is Lana Del Rey’s new album, “Ultraviolence,” currently available for purchase, but today she has released the music video for “Shades Of Cool.”

It has been awhile since OK Go has presented us with one of their creative style music videos. Today they have proved they have long moved on from the days of synchronized dancing on treadmills.
