The 'Fuck' debate continues...
Masked Man of Mystery replied to EdwardKnoxII's topic in Television & Film
Uh..yeah, this is the United States, one big huge hypocite, and I must admit I'm one myself to some extent. Frankly, though, WHY NOT JUST BLEEP IT? Even live broadcasts are somewhat delayed, I believe, to allow for things like this to be bleeped. Then no big deal, right? I could go on and on about the problems with this country, but I don't feel like incurring any more conservative wrath than I already have, so I'll leave it here. -
New DVD version of Beyond the Mat
Masked Man of Mystery replied to BorneAgain's topic in Television & Film
I would hope they'd add some new footage, or maybe work on a new documentary, because the wrestling world has changed quite a bit. -
Well, there is a rumor given at the very beginning when the two girls are talking. I'm personally not sure I buy that. I think that the daughter(Sadako?) created the tape with her hatred or something. I don't really know. Maybe it got cursed by her or something just before she died. Actually, if anyone knows enough about the movie that they could explain the various symbols and whatnot ie the alteration or the pictures so you see the victim with the hood over their head and whatnot, I'd greatly appreciate it, as they fly right over my head.

I think ADV has the rights to Reboot, so you might want to check and see if they released the DVDs. Some places(including the Best Buy I work at) put just about anything ADV in anime, and that has included Gamera, Yokai Monsters, and Mutant X.

Hamas uses first female suicide bomber
Masked Man of Mystery replied to Masked Man of Mystery's topic in Current Events
Awwww....poor Hamas...the only thing getting worse is the sick philosophy of "kill the Jews" that continues to spread in the holy land. Get that wall built, and fortify it with tanks, that's about the only thing that might help... First off, Hamas deserves no sympathy. I'm simply saying oh, that the suicide bomber pool seems to be running a bit dry. Good thing. The wall won't help though. It's just ticking off even more people. And I don't think tanks will help when you have people hiding TNT or whatever they're using under their jackets. -
I think Eddie has the best text book frog splash, but I prefer the Lo Down myself.

Okay, we've heard a lot of complaints over in WWE about how Wrestlemania XX looks to be royally srewed, and I agree with it, so I am sarting this thread so that we can book our own dream Wrestlemania, and heck, if you want to describe buildup, why not? Once I think it through a bit more, I'll put one up myself. We'll assume we have the current WWE rosters, and no new signings. I see no problem with people going form one show to the other, though.

Hamas uses first female suicide bomber
Masked Man of Mystery replied to Masked Man of Mystery's topic in Current Events
Well, yes it is. Up until now they had apparently considered(Hamas, that is) that suicide bombing is a job for only men, so either this is the sickest sexual revolution in the world, or things are getting so much worse for either Hamas or the women that they'd do this. -

Garfield specials and Garfield & Friends series
Masked Man of Mystery replied to a topic in Television & Film
Ditto. Now if only they'll get around to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. That would make unbelieveable amounts of money and continue my collecting of kung fu and kung fu related viedos -

If there had to be an FBI, go with Nunzio, although I think they're missing the boat with the whole gimmick as I loved the ECW FBI as presented as Wrestlepalooza '97. That's the only ECW show I have so i don't know if they changed over time.

They were apparnetly huge in Japan, and then did something that very few do, and release a US CD. This turned out to be "An Illustrated History," and contained their greatest hits, along with one song in English, A Love So Pure(the second track, Asia No Junshin, or True Asia, is supposed to be an English reworking of the song, but midway through it sounds to me like they're either singing gibberish or in Japanese, being that I can't speak Japanese I don't know). I on;y discivered this neat little band because my library happened to have that CD. Then I found out that they released a second US CD, Nice, and well, I got both. I like An Illustrated History better myself, but if anyone has caught this, i'd love to hear your opinion. Also, if you find this and like Jpop, I would highly reccomend it.

Wow, thats quite the blanket statement. First, Diz had been playing since the 40's and teamed up with Charlie Parker in the more traditional bebop style. Miles originally played with Bird (Parker) and his first few albums were bebop styled shit (Birth of the Cool) then he moved onto the Kind of Blue sessions with John Coltrane which moved away from bebop. In and around Kind of Blue, he produced orchastra pieces with Gil Evans - Porgy and Bess, and Sketches of Spain which were a lot different from his bebop style. Davis' work with Coltrane signalled the solo career of the tenor player. Coltrane eventually moved into much more spiritual, improvisational, and avant-garde styles (A Love Supreme and Meditations) that would become more "modern". But was much much much much different than Diz...or even Davis' work up to that point. Davis eventually accepted more electric aspects of his music and released In a Silent Way...and later the greatest selling jazz album (Bitches Brew) which signalled the rise of fusion music. So tell me, how is Diz a modern artist? Most hardcore jazzaphobes consider the bebop genre that Parker and Gillespie championed during the 40's and 50's as the definitve style, but considering its orgins were conceived nearly 80 years ago doesn't make it modern. And a career as prolific as Davis' surely didn't always fit the caption of being "modern". Coltrane could be argued that he is more modern with his unique style. If anyone wants to get into jazz music, start at Miles Davis. Check out the essential albums (Kind of Blue, Sketches of Spain, Birth of the Cool, Bitches Brew) and see who he worked with. From there, there is a ridiculously entangled relationship of great jazz artists who all played together at one time or another. Generations are connected through Davis from the 30's and 40's up until today. Hence I put modern in quotes. I recently took a jazz class and he referred to the bebop, cool, and funky styles as modern jazz. He didn't have enough time to get into fusion. But, and I admit I'm not the closest follower of jazz, but when most people think of jazz these days, they usually think of either swing or cool. But I'm picking nits here, it's good music, can we at least agree on that?
