So.  Some of you apparently like Skrillex while many others of you don't.  Anyway, here's something that isn't Skrillex but I think everyone can enjoy.

Not enough Laurel Canyon sound is not a possibility.  That's like saying there isn't enough molecules in the universe. Also, there's no hyphen.  Have some respect.

CALL 911!

I actually like some of his music.  On the first five listens.  After that, it really becomes tiresome. 

And the Jews, the blacks, the Irish, the Japanese, homosexuals, heterosexuals, Seventh-day adventists, small white dogs, the letter G, the smell of turpentine, Stockard Channing, and worst of all Dawes.

I remember that.  36 hours of my life I'd rather not talk about ever again.

I may also be mad at India.  Well, mostly just Frida Pinto.  That restraining order really wasn't necessary.

I just listened to that 'Something's Got a Hold on Me' performance about five times.  That is stunning.  There really isn't a proper word to describe how amazing that is.

Wonderful, wonderful observation.  I couldn't agree more.

@Bucky Calloway Completely and totally agreed.  I just listened to 'At Last' and it still made me shiver.  Despite being played to death in film and weddings and being the go-to 'romantic' song for just about any occasion, it is still unassailable.  Beautiful song and a beautiful voice.

Damn.  This really is too bad.

'Fucked Up' at incredibly high volume.  Although I've also cleared several rooms by blasting Beethoven.  Aphex Twin works well, too.  Even some Miles Davis does the trick.  It really just boils down to being belligerant and playing whatever the hell you want, despite the situation.

I lay the blame mostly on Pacino.  He had already sunk to the gravel-voiced character actor that he mostly is today.  He didn't fit.  His Michael didn't fit.  The time to make the film had long past and it just winds up looking incredibly incongruous.

I think the problem with pinning down where 'Apocalypse Now' and the 'Godfather' came from is that they both sort of went away from genre specifics.  By the end of the filming process of AP, it might have well been a completely experimental film.  As for 'Godfather' I remember Copola saying he wanted to get away from…

The assassination scene in the Italian restaurant is one of my all time favorite movie moments.  I love that they start speaking English, switch to Italian and then Michael delivers the wonderful "What I want. . ." line back in English. Pacino is so tense, clearly thinking about what he is about to do and what it…

I mentioned this a while back but someone in my building was downloading movies from my open internet connection (yes, a incredibly stupid move on my part) and I got a letter from my service provider that they had detected the downloads.  I got tagged for a single movie I had no idea someone else had stolen.  I don't…

"You ain't afraid of no man."

I'm sort of in a different camp.  I loved Hackman's performance and while I liked 'The Conversation' I certainly didn't love it as so many others have.  Godfather I, II and 'Apocalypse Now' are flawless and well above 'Conversation'.

It's an interesting film but as others have noted, some of the acting is reprehensible.  Not to mention it's sort of a mess, especially the last 3rd. 

'Redux' is interesting in that, like me (and I assume from your post you, too) every scene is so damn interesting that you can't help but watch every single frame.  That being said, Coppola left exactly what he should have on the cutting room floor.  'Redux' really is bloated.
