But only the former means "over-produced". If the latter is what he meant he is not just wrong, but also casually dismissing all electronic music and/or production in general, which would be dumb. Are you dumb, @chindonya115?

He's got nothing on Tom Hanks' son: http://www.youtube.com/watc…

About the Jethro Tull thing, people seem to forget that the category was hard rock/metal, and that the band actually were in a hard rock phase at the time.

Yes, but I suspect this has to do with kind of people you run into. Whenever I'm hanging out with my fellow students quite a few people have seen it. Whenever I go home not a single person I talk to has.

I hope this is based on his polemic.

Too Much Johnson!

The Wire never got 'really popular'. Try asking ten random people, i.e. not your geeky friends, if they've seen it.

Didn't the growth charts in the western world flatten out back in the 90's?

Borrowing some conventions from old westerns doesn't make them essentially westerns though, that's an overstatement. Other than that your point is valid.

You know it to be true. I had the ending spoiled by a review of the game Super The Empire Strikes Back, by the way.

Transformers 2 and 3 seem to be written on an Etch A Sketch.

I just hope that some wonderful day someone will let me in on that Darabont meme, and I'll finally truly be one of you.

Not at that early point, no. Their relationship should have been able to continue to evolve organically, and if the show hadn't been cancelled they could have maybe become romantically involved somewhere down the line.

The movie is one of the most misunderstood of all time. I've never experienced a movie improving that much after repeat viewings. The third time I saw it, right after going watching the whole show for the second time, I thought it was a masterpiece.

Bob suddenly appearing to show Earle who's boss is one of my favorite moments of the finale. All of Earle's planning and waiting for decades to find the Black Lodge, and Bob basically just goes "fuck you, you can't do that. I'm taking your soul" and that's that.

It ends with her escaping her horrible life and entering the White Lodge, which is basically heaven, so I wouldn't call the ending depressing. The final scene is her crying with joy and relief as the angel appears.

Angelo improvised the main theme as Lynch talked about a girl emerging from a dark forest or something, and they didn't change a single note. Really.

I think she was a vast improvement. She seemed genuinely sweet and innocent, like the character was supposed to be.
