Well many of their most well-known songs never made official Beatles albums. "I Want To Hold Your Hand" isn't even on an album. And it's no more a George solo song than any of his other Beatles songs.

Yeah, I'm not sure I understand why any of the medley songs would be skippable. They're already super short, and should only really be heard in context anyway, so why would you skip them? I guess if you're listening on some huge playlist set to shuffle, then maybe, but that's still no reason.

Yes, "unpleasant" is a fairly accurate description.

I agree with everything you said, but how is "Old Brown Shoe" not a genuine Beatles song? It was the B-Side of "The Ballad of John and Yoko" and is on Past Masters Vol. 2. And all four Beatles played on it, which is more than you can say about lots of their songs.

So glad it's finally becoming the accepted opinion that Ram is a true classic. I couldn't believe after I finally got that album that I hadn't always had it, like I'd been cheating myself out of all the wonderful years I could have spent listening to it.

Ugh, I've had those "uncontrollably vomiting" nightmares. Usually I'm puking up something really thick and rough, like wet, sandy cement. Or I'll be bleeding, but usually very thick, syrupy blood.

In this video there's a very brief glimpse of one of them in the makeup chair, so I believe it's just heavy prosthetics with a touch of CG frost/steam on top.

Also I LOVE that sequence in "Help!" with George trying so hard to look cool for the girl as he plays.

Whenever I'm feeling angry or depressed, I play "Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except Me and My Monkey." Instant happiness.

"'I don’t think that four guys in a car who say they would like to fuck that night are treating women poorly,' said Ellin, equally unafraid to spoil the entire plot of the Entourage movie to make an important point. "

They didn't really advance the plot, but hoo-boy are they fun.

Ugh, come on, Darth Maul was not Sidious' apprentice in the Clone Wars! Sloppy.

I was worried going into The Wire that it had been overhyped, but damn was I wrong. And now I'm in the same situation as you, where I want to recommend it to people in the strongest possible terms, but not scare them off.

I've been (very) slowly working my way through it cover to cover, and man, some of those books are MAJOR slogs. I thought Genesis was a lot of fun though; they really crammed a lot of short stories in that one. Plus, it makes it extra fun to read Deuteronomy when Moses tells the same story, but with MANY…

I tend to boycott most modern remakes, specifically remakes of 80s flicks. "Total Recall," "Robocop," "The Thing" (yeah, yeah, it's a prequel, whatever). Most of the fake nostalgia flicks too, like "G.I. Joe," "Ninja Turtles," or "Transformers." But all of these are very easy to boycott, since they look just godawful.

Stop trying to depress me.

Yes, I resisted "Brave and the Bold" for a long time, but man, I just absolutely fell in love with it. The video game is quite fun too, mostly because every time you use your batarang, Batman says "Batarang." And I laugh. Every time.

Oh man, I think that's the same one I saw. Scared the hell out of me. There was an "Unsolved Mysteries" where a guy was dressed like a cop, knocked on a family's door, then came in and killed them all. That freaked me out too, just the idea that the cop might be the bad guy.

Yeah, that bugged the hell out of me, even though this was an otherwise very cool video.

I completely agree, but I do think these days that cheap CGI is actually cheaper than cheap stop-motion. It just gets so time consuming and requires so much equipment to pull of stop-motion.
