origin stories
The biggest problem with movies like this is the origin stories. They all have them, and they're all fucking boring and dumb.

I wasn't saying the British are more sophisticated. A good bit of the worst US television in the last 5-10 years has been direct ripoffs/franchises of ungodly awful British shows.

Iron Man was kinda boring.

She's standing in a wardrobe test, and sitting during what looks like a lighting test.

I don't "get" Ferguson.

She wore last time she was on Letterman, I believe. Might be a recurring joke now.

This woman is a hoot!
That was my first thought after that LONG first answer. That might be the longest answer to a first question in Random Roles history.

Yeah I think you could tell he at least knows a little. I'd have to go back and watch to be sure.

I saw Angela on some talk show (Conan I believe) and she was very energetic and funny.

The British do dark comedy (at least on TV) so much better. I guess the audience over there gets it.

Awesome
Well I can't wait for the clips and ridicule from The Daily Show.

He also had a black Les Paul that now sits in Chicago Hard Rock.

Oh god, that sketch is fucking great.

Sid & Nancy is pretty classic, though it ends in an awkward and unfunny way.

Yeah those sound-alikes are downright terrible in most of the instances.

Family
It's so awesome that Jimi's family (half-sister) got the rights back after all these years — so they could release JH signature guitars (and pianos) MADE BY GIBSON.

I had a cassette called "Concerts" I think, that had Smashing of the Amps on it. It also had the longest fucking live version of Stone Free I've ever heard — like 10-15 minutes. At one point in the middle they take it down so low, that it ends up being just Jimi alone for a minute or two. Then they come back in and…

All those gimmicks are actually very, very easy. Even Jimi didn't really play anything "great" per se, while contorted in weird ways or doing the teeth thing.

Well, he wasn't really a great singer. But he tried.
