It doesn't affect my viewing pleasure a jot either. But it does affect it a sugar tittle.

Definitely start with Written on the Wind. I'd put it on my all-time top ten favorites list.

Agreed. If Cronenberg wants to adapt some Lethem, I'd think a book like "Girl In Landscape" would be a much more natural fit. Doesn't that one have people having sex with giant insects?

…the same David Lynch who will be featured in the title track of "Dark Night of the Soul," which was written by Danger Mouse, who also produced "The Mouse and the Mask" sampling music from various television shows airing on Cartoon Network's programming block Adult Swim that includes the television show Robot Chicken…

I can think of at least two things wrong with that title.

Coming to my local movie house…

I'll second your Heaven is Whenever love. I thought it was a stronger record than Stay Positive, and I think there are a couple songs on there that are as good as anything they've ever done.

this isnt a war its a moider

Meh. You'll never make it to the Round of 16 unless you step your game up.

I remember Silverhawks. There was that one villain with the giant tuning fork. That was some badass shit (bad ass-shit?).

Not suggesting anything that guy says should be taken at face value. I just thought it was interesting.

Didn't Slavoj Zizek pick "The Fountainhead" as one of the ten greatest films ever made in the last Sight & Sound poll?

@ The Beast Rabin - Not to suggest that your college friend is anything other than an idiot, but libertarian socialism is an actual political philosophy and counts non-idiots like Noam Chomsky among its adherents. As proof, I refer you to the source of all knowledge, Wikipedia:

How far do you have to get in Preacher before it gets awesome? I read the first volume in trade and wasn't feeling it at all.

Mentok commands you to like this record.

I'll cast my vote for Twin Cinema as well. That was the album that made me take an interest in power pop.

That's true, but between the less-than-enthusiastic letter grade and the general consensus that seems to be emerging on the internets, I get the sense that folks aren't feeling this one so much.

Hmmm
It almost kills me the way people are underrating this album.
