So Is This Just A Sequal To "Roger And Me"?
Much of the adverts I've seen for this looks like he's just treding water he already covered in Roger and Me and that TV show he used to have. Barging into corporate offices with his megaphone and asking embarassing questions the rest of the news media is to "polite" to ask.

This has just been a "c" kinda week for movies.

@ricin- Will, in the UK skins are still prodominately thought of as being racist. However, the SHARP (SkinHeads Against Racial Prejudice) movement is considerably stronger in the UK precisely because the UK does have a history of skins before the National Front began to exert their influence over the subculture. When

Good point. There should've been some mention of the role that the skinhead subculture had in the development of Two Tone. Before Skrewdriver and Oi! skinheads listened to original Jamaican ska and rocksteady.

Sublime Sucks
Thank you SO MUCH for pointing out what an abomination Sublime was. Attending high school in Los Angeles in the mid-to-late 90s meant that every asshole; from the skaters to the jocks, loved Sublime, and I was practically the only kid in school who recognized how lame they were.

Pedro Offers You His Protection
I dont know if I could offer much to this discussion, but I'll try at some insight into what is so appealing about Napoleon Dynamite, since I am not too ashamed to admitt that I am one of the ones whom have been won over by it.

Damn!
I thought this was going to be some new game that would mix up Marvel and Super Smash Bros! That would be fucking awesome! Kirby vs. Wolverine!

@Bologna- Yeah, your right, Raindogs IS the best Gateway. It catches him right in the sweet-spot between Asylum-blues-man and later Island-avant-gard. Plus, the best material off that album made its way into Down By Law, probably the best Tom Waits movie. Jockey Full of Burbon, Downtown Train, Gun Street Girl, Hang

Oh Andy Capp, you wife beating drunk!

'Best comic ever' is mainly a lot of DC marketing. Perhaps, 'most innovative mainstream suer-hero comic of its time' would be a more apt designation.

Well, I had an older brother with VERY idiosyncratic tastes in music (Cranberries, Pantera, and even skiffle were in his collection) and he turned me on to Waits early in high school. My brother had a definite preference for his early Asylum Records years, and like Heller's early assessment, that fit my

Boy, someone's on the rag today!

ZMF?
Duh, its obviously ZMF's fierce ownage causing all this paranormal activity.

I think Kanye is causing all the paranormal activity

The true Swayze fan has no need for DVDs, for they're already in their heart.

Hey, Jive, all I'm doing is pointing out the fickle nature of the beast, that everyone loves Amelie when shes only making fun of the squares, then when she makes fun of a hip band everyone takes offense. In my opinion, if her snarky comments are funny then they're funny, and we shouldnt be so defensive about whoever

Maybe they can finally get Geddy Lee.

I dont know, cummunism worked pretty good for me in college.

Amelie should make sure that she conducts a pol every week to make sure that whoever she plans to make fun is unpopular enough that she wont have to worry about douches with littel sense of humor when it comes to the artist that they deem untouchable. Everybody can agree that such big fish in tiny barrels as Taylor
