I almost think it's just to hook the SasuNaru fangirls. The ending theme is kind of evidence enough.

There's something amusing about Marcus Cor Von walking RIGHT past a "Monty Brown" sign. And wow is his music ever terrible.

Ah, I stand corrected.

Since ECW doesn't warrant a thread, again; I always forget how excited Seattle crowds are for EVERYTHING because we get no wrestling whatsoever, as Bobby Lashley got a huge pop and Holly got lots of heel heat. Also, Joey Styles saying that this is Bobby Lashley's first extreme rules match in ECW EVER is hysterical since didn't he and Test just have one like three weeks ago?

Yeah, I have that problem with him too. Like, his Ichigo feels like Johnny Yong Bosch voicing Kurosaki Ichigo instead of Kurosaki Ichigo himself.

Busting out the CAPSLOCK OF RAGE, I see.

The Godfather. I still have no clue why. Also, just as inexplicably, the Headbangers.

Tony Almeida's death strikes me as the moment 24 has kind of jumped the shark for me. It's still a good show but it just hasn't been a great one since that moment. And Curtis' death was terrible and lame and at this point just feels like "oh, 24's killing off their supporting characters that even have a fragment of a chance of being as cool as Jack again." At least Curtis' death had a POINT, though, unlike Tony's.

Yeah, that's always been my problem. Part of it is the terrible sequencing ("I Will" may not have as much lyrical depth but it's much catchier and it keeps my attention easier), but it also has to do with the fact that I never caught that it was about something more than just his mother, and I'll admit I've never listened closely to the lyrics. I'll give it another listen with that in mind later tonight.

I've never really seen the appeal of "Julia," myself. It's nice enough but it's never really grabbed me, unlike much of the other songs Lennon wrote on that album. Like, I can see the appeal but it's never worked for me. As for "Rocky Raccoon," it could have been worse. It could have been "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da."

I'm fond of both songs. "Goodnight" is another song that I was considering including but decided that it didn't really fit in anywhere other than as the final track, and I didn't really want to put it there. And I have to echo the sentiment on "Rocky Raccoon." I think it's one of McCartney's better songs on the first disc.

I too will attempt the White Album, with one very slight difference being that I will include at least one song by every Beatle (which essentially means "Don't Pass Me By" got in by default). 1. Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except for Me and My Monkey 2. Mother Nature's Son 3. I'm So Tired 4. Martha My Dear 5. While My Guitar Gently Weeps 6. Cry Baby Cry 7. Helter Skelter 8. Yer Blues 9. Dear Prudence 10. Don't Pass Me By 11. Sexy Sadie 12. Rocky Raccoon 13. Happiness is a Warm Gun 14. I Will 15. Blackbird So, about an even split between Lennon and McCartney with one Harrison song and one Starr song. "Back in the USSR" should probably be in there somewhere too but I couldn't particularly decide on where, and the same goes for "Savoy Truffle."

Out of curiosity, has anyone seen his NJPW work? I'm wondering how it compares to how he was in WWE outside of, at best, tag matches.

Yeah, I would have had pity for JAPW, oh, maybe two years ago when he was pulling this shit all the time THEN, but the fact that they not only keep booking him but give him the heavyweight title does nothing but make my opinion of them even lower.

"Near-masterpiece" for Brainwashed would be a massive exaggeration for sure. Half of the tracks are incredibly forgettable ("Marwa Blues," "Pisces Fish"). I disagree regarding "P2 Vatican Blues" but I can understand why one wouldn't enjoy it.

The episode of Scrubs that was done like an incredibly generic 80s sitcom. That was fantastic, especially the Janitor coming in, getting that "wacky side character the audience loves" response from the studio audience, and mugging and posing for the camera.

Actually, two of his singles hit #1 ("Photograph" and "You're Sixteen"), and another three or four were in the top ten as well. That being said, he also hasn't had a single real hit in the last thirty years and hasn't had a Top Forty single since the 80s.

I have Brainwashed, which I like for the most part (although the title track never impressed me so much). "The Rising Sun" is probably my favorite song off of it, though "P2 Vatican Blues" is pretty catchy too.

The only song on Songs for Silverman I enjoyed, to my recollection, was "Landed," which was more than catchy enough to keep my attention. Everything else really bored me out of my mind.

Edited my list to replace Gerald Ford. God, just five or six days short.

1. Eli Wallach *BEST BET* 2. Fidel Castro 3. Ariel Sharon 4. Betty Ford 5. Pete Doherty 6. Chuck Berry 7. Manute Bol 8. Johnny Hart 9. Jerry Stiller 10. Anne Meara 11. Jean Stapleton 12. Zsa Zsa Gabor 13. Lex Luger 14. Jimmy Snuka 15. Sherman Hemsley 16. Henry Hill 17. Sammy "The Bull" Gravano 18. Jerry Lee Lewis 19. Joey Bishop 20. Little Richard

I do not get the appeal of Sufjan Stevens. I find his music to be amazingly boring, and I like a lot of music that is usually classified by many as being boring. Could someone, anyone explain why he's like the golden boy of indie pop when it really isn't very hard to find people who are much better than him?

So when's he gonna take a role in a kinda-serious indy movie? Oh, he's already gotten that out of the way.

Agreed. To me the major appeal of the Beach Boys are the vocal harmonies anyway, so instrumental tracks are just complete wastes of space.

There's only one Lady Sovereign song I've ever heard. "Ch-Ching" or whatever. Between the terrible beat, annoying rhyming, and continual repetition of the song's title in the most annoying way possible, it may well have been one of the most annoying songs in the past year or so.
