My favorite is Cadillac Sky, who ortenzia mentions above.

Monster might be the only album with more copies for sale in used CD bins than Throwing Copper.

You got me all wrong, man!

I suppose you're right, Hipster.

Hand Me My Nose Ring
So, as Steve has pointed out many times over the course of this column, the angst-y rock we liked as teenagers tends to lose its hold on us when we become adults. Some of it is so fundamentally stupid and/or silly that nostalgia can't sustain it at all (i.e. that hilarious 'I Alone' video,…

He ought to think about doing both BtAS and something akin to Metalbox on his blog. Maybe add a paypal button for donations?

'How could Larger Than Life not have incited epic soul-searching and a major career overhaul? How could a comic genius like Murray spend his days worrying he'd be stomped to death by a giant animal and not wonder where in the hell he went wrong? Larger Than Life is less a movie than a 93-minute assault on…

I agree that it was a great call to let the actors sing their own parts. However, if Joss had studied Sondheim closely he might have tried a bit harder to adapt his score to the cast's various strengths and weaknesses.

Did anybody notice the ominous way the camera lingered on (a somewhat suspicious-looking) Jason when Hank and Britt left to intercept Laura's contact? That shot along with the curtness of Laura's subsequent phone call made me think that Jason was indeed in on it, but then he was dead in like the very next scene so now…

Damn it HAS been a while. Pardon my typos, y'all. For the show's sake, I just hope I proofread my 'Dear SX> DO NOt not cancell Terrierz!!!' email a little more closely.

@Beige— If there are still spots available, I'd gladly accept one.

Modulation.

I thought the show was mostly a waste of time, but it was still nice to see all the actors there together. I was especially impressed that Harold P. was so cool about everything. Seems like he could have been bitter.

@Yeesh Yeesh— Rousseau would have pummeled Ben, most likely about the face.

Damn Fine Sweetums Bar
Did anybody else get a Special Agent Cooper vibe from Lowe's intro scene? Overwhelming positivity is a rare and funny trait in big-time government officials, who seem to always be portrayed as either drones, power-mongers or world-weary idealists. That said, his bizarre vitamin obsession and…

My hunch is that she brought the ship there for a specific purpose and that the events of the next 40 years went more or less according to her plan.

Seconded.

Was it in the comments for this week's Hater podcast? That's what spoiled me. (It's still there, by the way, and it also mentions some stuff that didn't happen in 'The Candidate,' so watch out if you head over there.)
