Pretty much everything they did with Moon is worth owning, and there are some pretty decent songs on Face Dances and It's Hard. Whos' Last is a piece of shit, however.

I can see poor old Matthew actually writing that comment.
Great.
Super.
Doctor Who on DVD
The E-Space Trilogy: some of Tom Baker's best, if a bit more serious than what most people are used to from him. Warrior's Gate is one of the best Classic Doctor Who stories.
200 dollars worth of weed makes anything easier to deal with.
Sorry, I'd stick Claremont/Byrne's X-Men run up there with the greats. No problem. Morrison's run on new X-Men gets better with age, though. I love Simonson's run on Thor, esp. the Ragnarok issues, which are right up there. What about Robinson's run on Starman? Or the Goyer/Johns run on JSA? That last stuff is like…
Double Feature!
Yeah, Nickelodeon's out. Great. But this is a double feature with The Last Picture Show, and there's your selling point. Nick.'s fun, but Picture Show is great cinema.
Motel Hell for Dogs.
Sorry, Bob Hope. It is. It's even worse than Attack of the Clones, otherwise known as "The Film That Really, Really Sucks, But Because It Has Yoda Using A Lightsaber In The End, Everyone Forgets How Much It Sucks".
No, seriously. The first 10 minutes are nothing but Wookies "talking". If you can get past that, you've made it. They at least mix in Galactic Standard for the rest.
I've also heard that Ellison originally wanted Kirk to try and stop the truck, to save Edith, but was himself stopped. The idea here was that Kirk was so in love he was perfectly willing to sacrifice the future for it. Roddenberry said that he thought this would make Kirk untrustworthy to the audience, so that…
Agreed. I didn't even watch that Six Feet Under regularly, but the ending got me.
Fandango. Something about the end of that film works so well that whatever manipulation occurs during the film itself is crushed by the handshake between two people who have been antagonists up until then, but now recognize that their antagonism was friendship. Costner rasing a beer to them from afar nails it. A Cult…
Agreed. I'm an atheist, but I think Superdrag frontman John Davis's first solo album, which is pretty much all about his belief in God and how it's made his life better, is astonishingly good. I think the difference is between forcing someone to adopt their point of view to enjoy the music, and someone who simply…
Abso-fucking-lutely not, Al Tilley.
Thank you, Lester Bangs, for making us all laugh at Crash again.
Zappa
I'm a huge Zappa fan, but I don't agree with his views on unions, gays, or the "feminism of men". In many cases, you can trace the hatred to specific events — the music unions, for example — and while I don't think he was homophobic, I understand that he viewed alternative sexual practices, like S & M, to all be…
Okay…(sigh)…I'll ask the question
Is this guy serious? Is this some sort of satire? It's bad enough to be a parody of itself, so have we finally landed on the other side of the post-modern shark, having jumped?
While Vice Versa ain't the greatest thing in the world, at least it has some energy to it, and a great performance by Judge "My Name Is" Reinhold. The scene after he shakes down the school bullies is great.
And that's the main reason he's portrayed the way he is in Team America.
