All I remember about Banky is that he tended to rip on me a lot in the music folder. This amuses me, since he's admitted to liking Fall Out Boy and Blink 182.

Come on, it was bound to happen (Marney getting banned.) It was just a matter of time until it happened. Time to see her go complain about us over at the other board.

No. If you truly believe everything you've just said, ban me, motherfucker. Do it. Right fucking now. Do it. Or just admit that you have no balls. edit: Wow, spoke too soon.

Normally, I think remakes are a horrible idea. Here's 10 movies that I would actually like to see get remade. 10.) The Thirsty Dead-A boring 1970's exploitation quickie from the Philippines about Beautiful young women being kidnapped by a blood cult. The premise may seem fun, but it's a pretty dull, tame affair, that has a PG rating. An updated, R-rated version probably wouldn't hurt. 9.) Curse of the Screaming Dead-Painfully bad zombie movie that may be the "Manos" of zombie movies. Even if a remake of it was made-and it ended up sucking-it wouldn't be worse than the original. 8.) Grizzly-Everyone has seen this movie. It's one of those forgettable nature's revenge movies that came after "Jaws." A remake wouldn't be that bad. 7.) Body Melt-I like this movie, I really do. That out of the way, it makes no sense, and the plot is basically a series of vignettes. A remake with a clearer plot-that kept the gory comedy of the original-would probably be a good idea. 6.) Carnosaur-I love this movie-it's so inept, it's hilarious. Plus, it has Clint Howard telling disgusting stories to people in a diner. That out of the way, it's not faithful to the book at all, and an remake that's more faithful to the source material would be great. 5.) The Dark-Bad in every sense of the word evil alien movie produced by Dick Clark of all people. 4.) Hard Rock Zombies-Horrible attempt at Horror/Comedy that tries too hard and succeeds at nothing. Make it a "Spinal Tap" style spoof. 3.) The Manitou-Decent adaptation of a story by an excellent author in Graham Masterson. I like it, but a remake wouldn't hurt. 2.) The Ghastly Ones-Andy Milligan is one of those early, H.G. Lewis style gore directors who was inept, but at least had laughable movies-that were also too talky. Do a remake that cuts some of the talk. 1.) The Corpse Grinders-Ever see a movie that you are amazed escaped MST3K? Here's one for you, fromt he director of "Girl with the Golden Boots" and the man that gave you "Eegah!" The plot: A local cat food producer uses a corpse grinding machine on human copses found in a graveyard, and uses the bits in cat food. Side effects include murderous felines. I say remake it as a splatter comedy (but don't try too hard to be campy-ie play it straight, that helps the comedy.)

Oh my God, that is such a great choice.

And it's both frightening and hilarious to watch.

eBay is a good place for me, at least the stores there. I also try Best Buy every now and again, and whatever used or indie record store is in a vicinity. As for MP3's, I tend to go with rar and zip files, though I've gotten music off iTunes, and I might try Amazon MP3 sometime. If it's something you can't find on iTunes or anywhere else (ie JG Thirlwell's Manorexia project), then I'll get it from the musicians web site.

Hahaha are you serious about this? "Nerdcore" rap is the worst shit ever. Sorry, but I'm not from "da hood, y0." I don't care for ugly faces and big fat asses, I don't want to "get crunk," and I don't do drugs. I believe in a hard day's work for my pay, I believe in mutual respect amongst my peers. I believe in talent above marketing. I'm familiar with Star Wars, indie horror/sci-fi, and punk rock. If rap is meant to be the "music of the people," why would I listen to a bunch of men who don't look, talk, or act like I do, let alone have entirely different belief systems, ramble on about topics I have little care for? The few rap artists I do listen to are either better-than-average at what they do (Ice Cube, Wu-Tang Clan, Public Enemy, Run-DMC) or have something about them that I can associate with. I'm a white nerd from the suburbs. So why the motherFUCK would I want to listen to a hundred thousand different people rhyming about how the "white man has got me down" (Immortal Technique, anyone?) or about "backin' dat azz up." MC Lars speaks to me. He, along with other rapcore artists, take rap music for what it was meant to be: fun. There's a quote from Run-DMC that I can't find, but the summation of it is that 80's MCs would do party-rap because they didn't want to be reminded about the world of shit that they lived in. Plus, how many rappers do you know could take the Scorpions' "Rock You Like A Hurricane" and sample it into a dance beat? How many could do rhymes about Edgar Allen Poe one minute, and then break into ones about depiction of Hell throughout literature? Shit, how many rappers actually even KNOW what the fuck Dante's Inferno actually is? Ok then...

I used to like Olbermann...until he started going on about the show "24" being "a Bush administration a-ok to torture", or some kind of bullshit. At this point though, I can't stand him. He's become something of an obnoxious caricature, his "Special Comments" reek of self importance, his attempts at comedy are cringe worthy, and his feud with O'Reilly is like watching two idiots comparing the size of their cocks. I still like him more than O'Reilly, but Jesus Christ has he become a self-important douche.
