tl;dr: This was the only tape that still played in my dad's truck, and we listened to it all the time that summer I worked at the bean farm.

Band of Gypsys.

Just imagine if they'd inducted Moz.

Holy hell, Feeling Minnesota came out in '96?

Okay, so…I avoided 10 Things I Hate About You for years because I had a deep-seated disdain for the sex god role that was thrust upon Heath Ledger when he arrived, which I totally wasn't feeling at all. It wasn't until Brokeback that I realized what I'd been missing, and I finally acquiesced to see 10 Things about…

Was he really? Holy shit.

"What do you think of the director?"
"God, I hate that jerk!"

*nods*

I prefer to honor Kurt and Layne at the same time on the 5th. It's the Presidents' Day of suicidal rock stars.

i.e., the only salvageable part of that film?

I maintain that The Goonies only works if you're eight years old and you haven't seen The Monster Squad.

No need.

Ugh. This fucking movie.

For years, my dream was to see Sigur Rós at the Fabulous Fox Theatre in St. Louis, amid the gorgeous gilded trappings and the giant chandelier. Concurrently, I passed on several opportunities to see Nine Inch Nails, and vowed that I wouldn't miss the next. Alas, both bands ended up playing STL the same night, Oct 1…

What, no love for Into the West?

I live in St. Louis. Prevailing wisdom around here is that we'd be one of the first ones hit, as we house the headquarters of both Boeing and Monsanto.

Gotta say, I'm partial to Jesus Hits Like an Atom Bomb.

Why not just go to the source and cast James Vance?
Oh, right.

Considering the subject matter…probably for the best.

I do not understand the criticism that Spotlight was boring. Yes, it was bereft of flamethrower guitars, but in terms of a film comprised of nothing but dialogue, it was as riveting as it gets.
