Treefingers, your profile pic makes me think of good AVQ&A for the future: "What art experience grabbed you immediately in the first minute/page/whatever, so much that you wanted to run down the street and tell everyone you knew that you had just found the greatest thing ever?"

Good call. Come on Adult Swim, get with it! Didn't Cartoon Network show it for a while in the morning? Maybe like 8 years ago? Can't they just slip it on at 4 AM so we can DVR it?

Yeah so far my favorite two jokes in the series, before tonight, had been the first time he mentioned the name of his band ("Just The Tip") and then the next week when he mentioned them again ("Threeskin . . .We used to be called Foreskin but our bassist left".) So the long rambling list of band names was like comedy…

Grizzly Bear
The first time I heard "Yellow House", it just didn't click. I didn't see what the fuss was about. It seemed to be a collection of meandering snippets. Still, there was something about it that really intrigued me; maybe because it didn't quite sound like anything else I had ever heard before, and I really…

I thought the 3D was used very well in Coraline, to differentiate between the real world and the "other" world. i don't think it will save or destroy the movie industry; it's just another tool for filmakers to use. And I think the good filmakers (PIXAR, and Selick) will use 3D to advance the story, while many many…

I wish. I keep hitting the "home" key on my keyboard over and over, but dammit, I'm still stuck at work.

"If you don't come pick me up . . .
. . .I'm going to draw all over your jeans."

Not enough "Vampire's Kiss" love around here. That's a nasty piece of work, and he's fantastic in it.

Yeah, I don't understand all the hate for "Midnite Vultures". Probably the best Prince album since "Sign O' the Times". I have not been so into his last few, but I think Odelay and Midnite gives him a free pass.

BOOOOOOO.

Yup, first thing I thought when I saw the name of this week's Q&A was "Owen Wilson".

Did anyone say
"Rhapsody in August" yet?

Really? I love that photo. 180 years old, and they still look like they could kick your ass. Both as satire, and FOR REAL.

Batty Boyz
Yeah, that "Batty Boyz" song off the new DOOM really threw me, because in the past he's always been about subverting hip hop sterotypes, so it was odd to hear him be so crazy homophobic. He kind of explains where he was coming from in that track in this awesome interview:

I actually met Joe Pepitone once and it was very very hard not to say "Can I have an autograph, popcorn dick?" I mean, it's bad enough while I was shaking his hand, all I could think of was that part of the book . . .

I'd also recommend Jimmy Breslin's book about the lovably awful 1962 NY Mets in their first season; It's called "Can't Anybody Here Play This Game?" and every time I read it I laugh out loud from start to finish. It certainly was a different time, when players could disappear for days to go on benders and then somehow…

@fritzy-poo:

Yes, the train sequence is one of my favorite parts of any film, ever. It's like all of a sudden she takes a train into Magrite's brain.

Not that anyone's gonna read this far down into the thread
But I'd like to suggest anything by Robert Olmstead, especially "A Trail of Heart's Blood wherever We Go". Kinda like if Gabriel Garcia Marquez grew up working on a farm in New England, reading a lot of Tobias Wolff

See, you don't get stuff like this in the comments with the Hannah Montana review.
