AVC: What was it like working with Julianne Moore?

Can rhinos even contract AIDS?

Would you rather hear Toy Story lines?

Yeah, and even more painful after hearing how great a guy he was.

I don't think anybody here referred to those tracks on "The Wall" as "filler" (that was used to describe Ummagumma). They are essential to the album, but it doesn't take away from the fact that whenever they come up on the album I want to skip them. They just don't do anything for me, musically or conceptually. At

On The Wall: The fully developed songs on the album are some of the best in their catalog, but the shorter pieces, fragments, and more operatic parts (especially in the second half of the album) don't really hold up at all.

Wow, I didn't even think of Thick as a Brick. Good call, my friend.

Third on Tool. 10,000 Days was a bit disappointing (mainly because of Wings for Marie and the title track, so I tend to skip those), but Aenima and Lateralis practically perfect.

Second on Tommy. The end of that album gives me chills every single time.

Wait wait wait….
4. Pink Floyd, The Wall (1979)
After a series of fractured but spottily brilliant concept albums (The Dark Side Of The Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals) Pink Floyd hit the peak of its ambition and creativity with the double album The Wall…

Never Thought I'd Say It…
…but this actually makes me want to be from LA.

What is this, some kind of tube?

Bruce Vilanch is The Coon

Your list is flawed.

It's always been a funny show, it's just not as groundbreaking or consistent as it's early seasons. I'm glad that Matt understands this, and even agrees with some of the criticism.

Fucking Metallica…
My band and I were driving home on Friday and we heard "Seek and Destroy" coming from 6th street. Someone said, "I think that's actually Metallica playing." I said, "No, there's no fucking way they're playing right now." Needless to say I felt like a shithead the next day. Especially considering

Puppies.

Well it's always in the last place you look.

His accent may have been going in and out, but his Dubya special was fucking hilarious.

Please tell my wife, "Hello."
