When The Levees Broke: A Requiem In Four Acts
Lord of The Curry replied to Lord of The Curry's topic in Television & Film
Does Lee spend a good deal of time slamming Nagin and every other LA politician? Because they fucked up long before, and more monumentally so, than the federal government. That's my concern about this doc. Knowing Lee's biases he probably goes straight to "GEORGE BUSH HATES BLACK PEOPLE!" instead of providing criticism of, say, the BLACK mayor of New Orleans who was a colossal fuck-up in his own right. Plus doesn't he entertain that bullshit conspiracy theory about the U.S. government intentionally blowing up the levees? Spike doesn't really do any of the questioning in this movie, it's more intercut between people saying one thing and the person they're talking about giving their reply. Nagin isn't spared and he's pretty honest about his faults in the movie but to say he's put on the same pedestal as Bush, Brown and others probably wouldn't be an accurate statement. -
A Tool/Jay-Z mashup is the only logical answer.

When The Levees Broke: A Requiem In Four Acts
Lord of The Curry replied to Lord of The Curry's topic in Television & Film
It's weird because there very much is a political slant but it's not like Moore's films where he tries to uncover the problem or expose something. The problems were obvious and the situation was clearly exposed for everybody to see. There was no point in blaring "BUSH DONE FUCKED UP" because it was already a known thing. The footage of Soledad O'Brien from CNN grilling Michael Brown was half-awesome, half-disturbing. And seeing Wendell Pierce aka Bunk Moreland from The Wire was sweet. -
"Everybody should see this film" I work in DVD retail and when you see as many films as I do (fuck it, they're free) and hear the comments of customers day in and day out you see a phrase like this thrown around a lot. Sometimes I'll hope a movie rents really well or tell a lot of people that if they like a certain film then they'll like this one. But when this film comes out I will go against my own rules and use said phrase to every single person who comes into my store. Frankly I'm surprised that when it was released on HBO (and The Movie Network for Canadians) I didn't see any threads about this. Fuck a Bowling For Columbine. Fuck Farenheit 9/11. This is the best American documentary of the year and probably the decade, alongside being one of the most important films made in God knows how long, alongside Why We Fight which is another great film. What a completely and utterly horrifying thing to watch unfold. The movie clocks in at something like close to 6 hours so it's not recommended to try and watch it all in one shot, if also for the fact that unless you have no soul you will spend a good portion of this movie fighting back tears. People will say "Of course Spike Lee made a movie about Katrina victims" but it's not like you can tell that this is a Spike Lee Joint just by watching it. Spike himself barely appears in the movie on screen and you only hear him speak a handful of times. The movie is about the people and their stories, majority of which are sad though there is the occasional uplifting moment on the whole this is one depressing-ass six hours. In a society where so much emphasis is placed on war and terrorism it's shocking to see the war of Residents of New Orleans vs The American Government. So, who actually saw this movie and who plans to see it? American, Canadian, it doesn't matter. This is something that needs to be seen and more importantly, needs to be remembered.

FWIW, I'm pretty sure I read on IMDB that the dude who plays Ando is signed for a full 24 episodes.

They need an episode devoted to Ryan trying to get Kelly and Roy to hook up, just so he can have an excuse to break up with Kelly.

Klein is a bit of a cowboy. But after dropping the "Stronarch has never had a Liberal bone in her body......well.....except one" line I can never hate the man.

Thanks to Tazz and a video camera. I'm simultaneously depressed that I know that and impressed I can remember that far back. -
The Amazing Race: 10 Edition
Lord of The Curry replied to Spaceman Spiff's topic in Television & Film
I loved them. TA-TOW. BTW, fuck a spoiler tag at this point. We aren't spoiling anything because nobody knows anything. Teams that are apparently "confirmed" to be on the edition...... - Midget Sister and Non-Midget Sister - Colin and Christie - Hot Amish Twins - Ray and Yolanda - David and Mary (GOD WHY?) - Rob and Amber - The brothers from two or three seasons back who rolled their jeep in Africa -

If they were truly smart they'd band together and pull off a mass-robbery of the rich neighborhoods. -

Matt Lindland vs Joe Rogan at the next X-Mission show. I sincerely want this to not be a joke. -

Venis became king-sized in my mind for taking 'Kish's splash from the top of the cage. Forget which PPV but that was a bump and a half. -

I don't think these are really nescessary to spoiler-tag, fwiw. -
Yep. Juelz doesn't recycle lyrics as much as Writer does and while he may not have a more proper flow I find that he makes his fit with the beats and production more. Juelz is also the only member of Dipset that seems to have his beats tailor-made to fit his style, which doesn't mean he can't work with the typical booming anthems that the other Dip guys are famous for, he's just so unique that he gets different beats and production to work with and makes it sound better then Jones, Rell or Cam could. I'm trying to think of 40 Cal or Hell Rell rapping over some of Juelz's slower stuff and I can't picture it.

If Rudo was here he'd be defending his home province valiently right now. Fuck if I'm gonna do it for him.

After Misaki I think Filho is #2 on my PRIDE list of "needs to catch a serious beatdown." -
Here's how I'd break down Dipset, talent-wise 1. Juelz 2. Writer (Huge talent drop off) 3. Rell 4. Cam 5. 40 Cal 6. Jones I won't even go into Zeeky, Jha Jha or Bezel.

I'm really digging the track with Kurrupt on DA, along with the will.i.am song.

"More exciting version of Paulo Filho" is akin to referring to a food product as "It tastes better then melted pig shit mixed with cigarette ash". You can't really go any lower then Filho, though I suspect there are fighters out there I'm blessed to have not seen that make him look downright dynamic by comparison. -
We'd laugh when our countries economy implodes upon itself. Toronto probably has a higher GDP then Saskatchewan and Manitoba combined.
