MUSIC—Former Scorpions guitarist Uli Jon Roth makes Clapton sound like a ham-fisted hack. The German technical master pretty much invented neo-classical metal, and he's got a double-disc of Scorpions reworkings on deck for later this year, so expect to hear some old favorites, drastically reinvented to match Roth's dactyl prowess—with Ginger Baker's son, Kofi, on drums, no less.

FILM—People talk a lot of shit about Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom—Willie Scott just screams, Short Round is annoying, etc.—but goddamn is it way more fun, exciting, and just plain weird than its boring Sunday afternoon sitcom follow-up Last Crusade. Revisit this mean-spirited Looney Tunes adventure and (snake) surprise yourself. BOBBY ROBERTS
