So I’m late to this but Jesus Christ this album is incredible. I’ve liked previous albums from them to varying degrees but this one floored me....
Definitely go director's cut for Kingdom of Heaven
Both better than their reputations to different degrees.
What the hell is That Dog?
It really gets the short straw in the assessment of his catalog. He basically perfected that whole late-'70s, early-'80s frizzy pop-funk style and...
Love the Prince shout out. If you haven't heard "Bambi" from the same album, it's one of his best guitar riffs.
Influence is incredible. Gloria is a really good execution of a trope/archetype. I did not get the hype for Faces. Left me totally cold.
Inclusion of Sports is cool.
I'm gonna hate this like 5 seconds after I post it (also I really need to see Empire of the Sun): Raiders of the Lost Ark Schindler's List Saving...
Hook is a triumph of art direction and costume design and not much else. Honestly one of only...two or three misses in Spielberg's whole career...
Conspiracy theories are the illusion of curiosity, except they always get them all from the same sources. It's empty calories.
I think you can reasonably distinguish between favorites and quality. I know when I'm watching The New World that I'm watching a tremendous piece...
Isn't George from Wales? Or have I been mistaken all this time.
I'm obsessed with this Gallant album. In particular "Atoms" and "Lucid" are easily two of my favorite songs this year.
Failer is really terrific, too. The guitar playing in particular is really awesome.
Bottoms is great. Bodies Bodies Bodies and Let Them All Talk are good.
How does the 2024 one stack up among the 3? Always tempting to start with the newest.
I don't know who he is but now I want to find out. Being a fan of The Listening alone gets you instant good will.
Horror is definitely a whole other beast. With the right audience, it can be so much better. Barbarian in a packed theater is still one of the...
I also just don't understand, like, what makes you leave the house and pay money to see Vertigo if you're the kind of person who's going to laugh...
I'd argue that laughing AT a movie isn't being into a movie. Meeting the movie on its wavelength is being into a movie. I've been to a good amount...
Sadly I feel like we're not getting that until one or both have passed.
Aw I liked the first Fear Street a lot. Crossed LB and imdb to see what else I really didn't like. Dr. Bird's is the only 2/10 I've given this...
People who pretend to be Joni to scam people should have a special circle of hell
I can’t see them doing it without Christine. They’ll kill each other.
