  1. because it was about americans? jajajajja no, because it was a horrible movie, you fucking spic. Now, now no need to get nasty.
  2. Wow, quite the hullabaloo. I've never read, nor plan to read, any of the books.
  3. Wow. I don't know how anyone couldn't like Anchorman. It was the funniest movie i've ever seen in my life, espicially Brick. Golden. "IM RIDING A FURRY TRACTOR"
  4. Raine should go save the fucking rainforest or something, give it up buddy.
  5. It will be his new single and it will be on In A Coma.
  6. It is amazing and I thought it would be a case of that with me too but seriously, if you don't rent it you're missing out on probably the best movie you'll ever see in your life. Make it a priority to rent.

    Lo-fi B-sides

    Wow, that would be amazing. I've been trying forever to get my hands on Loser Anthems and haven't even wasted my effort on Lo Fi...A 4 disc set. I can't wait!
  8. Editorial Reviews Amazon.com Perhaps the highest compliment you can pay to Edward Norton is that his Oscar-nominated performance in American History X nearly convinces you that there is a shred of logic in the tenets of white supremacy. If that statement doesn't horrify you, it should; Norton is so fully immersed in his role as a neo-Nazi skinhead that his character's eloquent defense of racism is disturbingly persuasive--at least on the surface. Looking lean and mean with a swastika tattoo and a mind full of hate, Derek Vinyard (Norton) has inherited racism from his father, and that learning has been intensified through his service to Cameron (Stacy Keach), a grown-up thug playing tyrant and teacher to a growing band of disenfranchised teens from Venice Beach, California, all hungry for an ideology that fuels their brooding alienation. The film's basic message--that hate is learned and can be unlearned--is expressed through Derek's kid brother, Danny (Edward Furlong), whose sibling hero-worship increases after Derek is imprisoned (or, in Danny's mind, martyred) for the killing of two black men. Lacking Derek's gift of rebel rhetoric, Danny is easily swayed into the violent, hateful lifestyle that Derek disowns during his thoughtful time in prison. Once released, Derek struggles to save his brother from a violent fate, and American History X partially suffers from a mix of intense emotions, awkward sentiment, and predictably inevitable plotting. And yet British director Tony Kaye (who would later protest against Norton's creative intervention during post-production) manages to juggle these qualities--and a compelling clash of visual styles--to considerable effect. No matter how strained their collaboration may have been, both Kaye and Norton can be proud to have created a film that addresses the issue of racism with dramatically forceful impact. --Jeff Shannon Just an amazing movie. Who else has seen it? What did you think? I loved the ending. It made you sit there and stare through the credits almost not realizing the movie is over. You just sit there, jaw dropped..."wow...wow..." All movies should do that.
  9. Ecstacy (sp?) is alarming. People think it's cool but it can seriously (pardon my french) fuck you up. Just the fact that you don't know what you're getting it or much potent it is. I've never tried anything drug related. Of my 5 best friends maybe 2 of them have tried it and none of them smoke on a regular basis.
  10. Ditto that one.
  11. Oh god, this is going to be tough. I'm going to do 10, in no particular order...and I know i'm going to leave something out. -Alice In Chains-Rooster (unplugged) -Cake-I Will Survive -Coldplay-A Rush Of Blood To The Head -Faith No More-Epic -Zeppelin-Dazed and Confused -Matthew Good-Avalanche -REM-Losing My Religion -Nirvana-Heart Shaped Box -Oasis-Champagne Supernova -Pearl Jam-Black
  12. I just listened to Annabelle for the first time as well and I have to say I like Annabelle better. Sorry for the double post for some reason I couldn't edit my first.
  13. Wow. Even in anchorman? Celebrity Jeopardy on SNL?
  14. Yep. I was just going to comment on how "americanized" the movie was. That seemed really hoaky to me. All in all I thought it was pretty good. Really amazing effects. I thought the ending was cut short too but one of my friends told me that that's how it happens in the radio play. All of the sudden the aliens die really quickly and without much lead in.
  15. I thought it was awesome too, I don't know what you're talking about. If you're looking for "sophisticated" humor Will Ferell definately isn't the way to go. I mean, the reason people laughed at that was 1) It's Will Ferell and 2) He's a 40 year old living at home telling his mom to bring him meatloaf. I thought Vince vaughn stood out in a good way. 8/10.
  16. "Emo" makes me want to gouge my eyes out with dull rusty forks.
  17. OLP were good for about 2 years. The Raine got too full of himself. They used to be a good, straight up rock band and now...well, now it seems like every video they put out is trying to tackle some big issue. Get back to just rocking boys. Singing about Superman and Naveed and all that jazz.
  18. I'm listening to it for the first time. It's really good. Is this a b side or will this be on an upcoming album?
  19. I have a slough of favourites. Matthew Good (Band) Nirvana Pearl Jam Alice In Chains Cake Coldplay Faith No More Hendrix Zeppelin Oasis The Tragically Hip Bob Dylan I'd say all these people/bands are up near the top of my list. MG, Nirvana, and Coldplay would have to be my favourites right now.
