Goddamn do I love Aladdin Sane. I just had that record framed on my wall. But I agree, not the best Bowie to start with. Ziggy is a good choice.

WE'LL DO IT LIVE!!!
FUCK IT!!!

If I remember correctly, it was around season 6. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Wow, did not read the subject line. Disregard my last comment.

My high school drama club did Tommy my junior year. I played guitar in the pit band. Needless to say, awesome.

My freshman class got to see Zeffirelli's R&J as well. It was great because the entire class was talking throughout the movie, then all of a sudden, Olivia Hussey stands up naked and the class went dead silent. It was a beautiful moment.

Twin Peaks

My class read it in 7th grade as well, but then we read it again in 10th grade. I still have no idea why.

Also, in our first week, we read excerpts from Howard Zinn's People's History of the United States. I would like to add that to my personal list of Graduation Requirements.

In one class I took, we had to watch Birth of a Nation and not a single person could sit through it. Not even because of the racist content, but because it couldn't keep anyone's attention. It was pretty sad.

We. Are. The.
Adequate

Occasionally Regrettable
Caretaker Presidents of the U.S.A.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My class watched parts of Throne of Blood. Most of my class seemed to dig it, oddly enough. More so than the bits of Orson Welles' and Polanski's versions we saw.

For any Western History Class…
A Hard Days Night.

The Simpsons
In my A.P. American History class, my teacher played "Homer Vs. the Eighteenth Amendment" to teach us about prohibition. Goddamn that was a great day in education.

No way, of all of the early seasons, it's either 4 or 6. But honestly, any of the first 8 works.

…And kind of a dolt.

It can definitely go either way. I've only seen it twice, and my first reaction was "Oh, they went through a lot, now they just need to put it behind them and get to some lovin.' But in retrospect that seemed very un-Kubrickian. So I think that it's more about them moving on without really taking to heart what had…

Yeah, that TV adaptation that King did with Steven Weber as Jack was so much more faithful and therefore awesome. Oh wait…

Barack Obama, the nation's first O.G. president.
