They're not fixated. It's all in the name of ART.
For you see I, Manny Coon, had a cri de coeur one day. 'Manny,' I said, 'What is it that gets to the people?'

Look, I love my skinny whiny melodic atonal wimpy-ass indie "rock" as much as the next girl
But sometimes you just need something that actually rocks. Gets the blood pumping. Lights a fire under your ass. I have a feeling this album is going to be in heavy rotation chez Riff this summer.

I rewatched that last night. I always think Ledger's performance will thrill me less as I watch it more, but it never does (even though the rewatch value of the rest of it is less than super).

I think
the Bette Davis one troubles me the most. Damn, that woman was cool; it's sad that her end was less than graceful.

Wow, Ellie. I never expected that from you.

Bernie Mac?
His last two movies are Soul Men and Old Dogs (of Hater fame). Sad.

I know. I am, like, BREATHLESSLY excited about this show. See you there, Wily Mo.

Too bad
I was looking forward to A Positive Rage. A band like The Hold Steady seems perfect for a high-energy concert DVD.

I can't seem to make up my mind about Hazards of Love. I adored it at first, but it seems more and more uneven with each listen. However, The Rake's Song and The Wanting Comes In Waves will always rock.

Look, I love Bill Murray as much as the next girl but I really do think Ramis is the funniest thing about Ghostbusters, and that's saying a lot.

I am so behind
