Toxic Narcotic is both unaccessible and not for anybody but those who love drunken misanthropic ramblings in musical form.

I'd definitely say some old-school punk like The Ramones, maybe even Generation X. But seriously...dude, have you ever looked through this folder?

There's a movie about the country of Greece?! WHY WAS I NOT NOTIFIED OF THIS?! But yeah. The love for Grease is the love for high school, the love for early rock n' roll, and the love for when John Travolta was still a good actor and willing to do anything. Plus...you KNOW you love the theme song by (Andy, IIRC) Gibb. Why? Well...because grease is the fucking word.

Look above you, because the joke is flying over your head. Or, to put it in TSM terms, WHOOOOOSH~!~ And I heard Cruise is having Katie do a silent birth, as it pertains to Scientologist belief. Cruise is a fucker and I hope Mission: Impossible 3 bombs huge.

See, Roth's show was entertaining when he had Animal and Sasha with him. Now he has this Hutch fella who is fucking boring, B. Young doesn't constantly play guitar in the background (in fact, it's entirely silent besides the segues between topics and into commercials), and...it's just fucking boring now. Roth could have caught on pretty decent if they kept his format intact, the way he wanted it to be, because he made a lot of solid points (especially regarding the music industry), but now...it's like I'm listening to a public access talk radio show: fucking boring.

There is indeed a certain charm in a movie where the "cool" kids lose, but Napoleon Dynamite didn't really do it that well. And yeah, I get it that Brokeback was more realistic in that the fantastic didn't happen...but how am I supposed to like EITHER of the main characters when there's nothing to like about them? I initially liked Ennis, somebody who succumbed to his repressed homosexual desires and then repressed them again to be back with his wife and raise his daughters, but after Jack came back into his life he became a complete fucking asshole. Forgot about his wife, forgot about his daughters, and left everything to be with Jack...who he had known for a few weeks, if even, before not seeing him for at least three years. And Jack...he was just a fucking slut. The guy was all about getting off, no matter with who. First Ennis, then his wife (favorite scene of the movie has Anne Hathaway showing her tits), and then via male prostitutes in Mexico. Neither man had any real sense of loyalty to anybody but each other, and even then: Jack didn't exactly seem very loyal to Ennis, and vice versa. Unlikeable characters? Check. Poor editing? Check. Hollywood hooplah and GLAAD sponsorship because a movie decided to have gay characters that weren't portrayed as queens? Check. These three things lead to my dislike of the movie, particularly the fact that the only characters I did like were Ennis' daughters and his wife (since they were just caught up in everything) and Jack's wife and that EVERY SINGLE CUT BETWEEN SCENES WAS A FUCKING FADE.

Yeah. If the prank caller is dumb enough to use a cell phone, then go right on ahead and do it. But it'd suck if these "prank calls" were actually just somebody dialing the wrong number over and over again thinking it's the right one.

I'm assuming you mean Alexi of Children of Bodom...and yeah, I wanna punch him in the face too. While yelling "damn you and your emotionless power/death drivel!" Catchy stuff, fun to mosh to, and they put on a great live show...but the guy just seems like a cunt. Impaled Nazarene > Children of Bodom. ...and why punch Kerry King in the face? I mean, that would ensure he'd rip your fucking heart out or something. And then write a song about it for Tom to scream while Kerry and Jeff trade shreds.

Re: Napoleon Dynamite Ehhh...it has its charm. It's really a movie you'd need to watch over and over again to actually find funny, since it's hyped up as hilarious when it's really just sorta...not. It's mostly stuff you can sit back and quote with a few of your friends while drunk. Me and my girlfriend still randomly go "the defect in that one is bleach" whenever something tastes bad. Oh, and don't rag on Lenna for not liking. Sure, she's a stuck-up bitch. Sure, Napoleon Dynamite makes fun of stuck-up people. Well, actually, it DOESN'T, it just has a few stuck-up characters, but all of the jokes are at the expense of the losers (Pedro, Napoleon himself, Napoleon's middle-aged brother, that chick that does the photography, etc.). Only scene I actually laughed out loud at the first time I saw it was when Pedro's cousins (the two or three guys in the low rider) pulled up next to the school when the bully was stealing the nerd's bike, and just shook their head and the bully ran away. For some reason I laughed my ass off at it. Re: 40-Year-Old Virgin I loved it. A lot. I didn't think the length hurt it at all, as the jokes progressed, and each character was pretty well portrayed. As stupid as it is, Steve Carrel himself summed it up best as a "coming of middle-age" story. Again, a lot of the jokes between the supporting characters (particularly the "you know how I know you're gay" scene) seems like stuff you'd say to your friends, and Paul Rudd's character is fucking hilarious when he's wasted and talking to his ex via the camcorder. I laughed so hard at that scene. Plus...this is the dawning of the age of aquarius, man.

Re: The Crow The reason most people love it is because Draven was given a second chance. He was a victim through-and-through, and came back from death to seek revenge against those that wronged him and his fiancée and were destroying his city. Is it any wonder why this film is HUGE with the "goth" crowd? Persecution, isolation, lost love...it's a gothic action flick. Well-acted by the majority of the cast, and though the movie left out the big question that the comics had (is Draven doing the RIGHT thing or just what he thinks is right), it's still pretty well-made. O'Barr wrote the comic after losing his wife - the one person in his entire life he ever felt loved him - so the pain of her loss comes through in spades. Far and away the most "true" comic flick to date, considering very little was changed (the only thing that was blatantly changed was Eric's occupation: in the comic, he was a construction worker, though it was never flat-out said he was). Re: Zombie/Zombi 2 (since they're the same) The love for this movie comes from the gore, hands-down. It's an all-out zombie gorefest, and Fulci throws in his usual trademark of never letting any major gore scene go unnoticed. Re: 12 Monkeys How did you hate the ending? It was a decent little showing of man's destructive nature. To quote another movie, Terminator 2, "it's in [our] nature to destroy [our]selves." One big circle, a way of saying that the future cannot be prevented and that destiny must take its course. Re: Batman Begins I can see how some can say it's boring. There are a couple of scenes I felt Bale didn't quite use the charm of Wayne in, but that was AS Wayne and not as Batman. As Batman he fit the character perfectly, though as Wayne he was just a nicer, more sincere version of Patrick Bateman. Bale's forever going to be Bateman, really, though sometimes I wish everybody would remember him as Jack Slater (Newsies represent).

Exactly. Devil's Rejects was a movie by a hardcore horror fan for hardcore horror fans. Unless you like the exploitation and grindhouse horror flicks of the 70's, you're not going to like Devil's Rejects. Well-acted, amazing how quality the work came out considering it was made for half the budget of House of 1000 Corpses and in 30 days (pre-production, production, and post-production included). I'm echoing Scarface. I can't get into it. At all. Wow! He snorts coke, builds an empire, and then gets off'd by some random Cuban with shades and a shotgun! HURRAH! Brokeback Mountain sucked, but a lot of people loved it. The gay movie's been done before, and been done better, so it's not that revolutionary. The editing was redundant, the direction poor, and the acting subpar (considering that every name on the cast whose work I'm familiar with has done better in every other movie I've seen them in). That's why it didn't win an Oscar: not because it's about two gay men, but because it's awful. I don't see what's so great about A Nightmare Before Christmas, either. Or the majority of Tim Burton's work, for that matter. Outside of Batman, that one short animation he did in college that Vincent Price narrated, and Big Fish...I haven't liked a single movie he's made. What's so special about him?

...how big IS Joe? Really? At least 6'3" or so, aye? Massive frame, looks like he hits harder than most real fighters do...yeah, he'd get over huge if booked just like he's being booked: he may lose a belt, but he won't be pinned or made to tap to lose it.

I wanna know which song Shadows Fall has, so I can d/l it and not have to buy the album itself.

This was regarding me saying Nitro could be a main eventer. As far his chances of actually being a main eventer? Yeah, being a homegrown talent IS a good thing. Sure, the vast majority of WWF/WWE main eventers haven't been homegrown, but he's gonna get a push towards the top one day if he's still with the company in the next 5 years, and I wouldn't be surprised in the least if he took hold of the opportunity, rode it, and became either the WWE Champion or the World Heavyweight champion. Kid's gonna be a star one way or another. Good look, decent ring abilities, GREAT charisma, and he's willing to learn from the veterans on how to improve his ringwork. Nitro/London. Nitro/Kendrick. Nitro/Mysterio. Nitro/Angle. Think of how many possible quality singles feuds Nitro could have in the next 5 years if given a singles push. And yes. Keep him with Melina when MNM eventually splits. Matthews/Mercury/whatever you wanna call him (I'll still always refer to him as Joey Matthews, though) doesn't have the finesse Nitro does, although he has much more experience, so I see Nitro winning the split feud and going on to greater success. Keep Melina with him so he can be the prick he is with her at his side. Johnny Nitro: reppin' Trent Acid in the E since '05.

I don't think it's the original La Parka, is it? Doesn't he wrestle as LA Park now?

Quote of the thread thus far is "Terminator is an indie film?"

Nah, just makes people think you're into perspirating plants.

Your kid screamed because you showed him a lawn gnome.

Silent Hill looks like it'll be interesting. Never played the game, so I won't be seeing it with a closed mind, but even if it's shitty like the Resident Evil movie (not the sequel, which was awful in every which way) it'll at least have some fun to it. I still wanna see Slither since James Gunn is pretty damn good at writing (you know you dug the Dawn remake and love Tromeo; plus his appearance in Toxie IV was hilarious).

I think I just may have to put it in my sig, now.

Not this one. He'd turn me in to Homeland Security and I'd get arrested and taken off of a flight. And then when I explain to them that it was a joke about the current overabundance of fear and mistrust in our society, they'd just go "this is no laughing matter." Of course, it IS a laughing matter when listening to The Clash makes you a terrorist.

...it's evolution, baby...

I think I'm gonna buy one of those shirts that parody the "I <3 NY" shirts with the plane going into the Twin Towers. And then yell "PRAISE ALLAH" or something in a cab. Seriously, this is fucking ridiculous. A song about London burning by a CLASSIC PUNK BAND and a song about NORSEMEN arousing suspicions of terrorist activity? That cabbie needs to be brained.
