As New Yorkers, out favorite part of the hilariously, culturally confused and filmed in Vancouver 'Rumble in the Bronx' were the scenes where you could see the snow covered mountain ranges in the background.

It will make the recent 'Point Break' remake seem heartless and pointless and breakless by comparison. What a waste of for all concerned of money, talent, time and even this comment.

Yes indeed, there's nothing like getting lost in the inner workings of "Bullfinch's Greek Mythology' to pull in those big box-office returns.

50 points for referencing Ice-T on the New Jack City soundtrack

So just what could old George C. Scott have possibly done to Piper Laurie in this movie to make her write 'PERVERT!' on the mirror in lipstick then go back to drinking ?

'Fort Apache' where Newman is a NYC cop in sympathy with the neighborhood: "Let the brothers go!"

Not really. Elvira was a take on the 'Vampira' character in the Ed Wood movie 'Plan 9 From Outer Space'. This makes her act 'campy' but certainly not a 'drag act'. As other commenters have pointed out, you cannot be a drag act without being a male in the first place. Liza Minelli herself is campy when she's in

Harrison was not a christian, 'Taxman' is a great song, but it was an album cut that was never released as a single and got no airplay whatsoever after the free-form FM days were over. You sir are nothing more than a right wing troll and historical revisionist. Please shut the door behind you on the way out.

I'm with you Bruiser ! It seems as if nearly every sub-genre that rock has split into since the advent of the Beatles is found in their work. Blues, pop, straight hard rock, heavy metal, etc. etc. etc. It's also important to remember that their awesome producer George Martin introduced them to a lot of new sounds,

"Whattya Got ?" - Johnny (Marlon Brando) 'The Wild One' - 1953

The gold standard for this has long been the scene in 'Dumbo' where after Dumbo's mother has been locked away as a 'mad elephant' she reaches her trunk down through the bars of the door to caress him and rock him like in a cradle. <sob>

Sorry Cap'n but polar bear skin is BLACK!

Wow, talk about lack of subtlety. Shane was about to kill Rick, that was self-defense. Carl who was already deeply troubled by what he has seen, done (and not done) reacted harshly at the tail end of a full on firefight at the prison which they could hear, and before he knew if any of the others had survived

"How would you like to work for two years on something and then you get a B- from some asshole in the Village Voice""

It may be common over there but it is new to the US press over the last few years, and since I am old enough to have seen the Ed Sullivan performances live, I have followed the Beatles ever since. It seems like the kind of nickname a personal acquaintance might use but sounds odd coming from a fan or poster here as

Yes, that's what I said.  Try a dictionary and some thought first next time. Also, having lived through those times and seen the societal attitudes and laws change, essentially yes. There are more than sufficient examples and incidents if you care to open your eyes. Jackie Gleason as Ralph Kramden on 'The

No, not at all, but the point is if you are discussing someone's art, then discuss the art.  Should every painting, sculpture, song, book or whatever come with a disclaimer about the particular artists or authors failings as a human being ?  We can't talk about Van Gogh's paintings without mentioning he never sold one

I have a lot or musician friends, and 'no girlfriends in the studio' has been a general rule since before Jolson recorded on real wax.  It was always my understanding that John insisted she be there which naturally annoyed the others.

That's so deeply stupid it's hard to imagine.

I have to agree, I was stationed in Syracuse when he was killed and went to a memorial service held on the main quad at Syracuse University the next night.  There were candles and singing and a lot of bad spontaneous poetry written by sophomore co-eds, but the mood was one of sadness and loss.  Many famous artists
