Yup. Just moved out of Denver a year ago. I’m convinced it’s become the douche-capital of the world.
This is the most underwhelmed I have ever felt about a Star Wars movie.
Yup, you nailed it. I remember the first time I ever listened to MHTRTC I could have sworn I’d heard it before, despite knowing for a fact that I had not. It took me awhile to realize that the music was making me feel this way, a feeling of nostalgia for something I couldn’t quite place (childhood, maybe?). Remarkable…
Meadowlands is such a great album, and those first 20 minutes or so are about as perfect as music will ever get. Love seeing your inclusion here. I do feel like it is some sort of sin to exclude Happy from the best three on this album. But that would mean you’d have to drop Hopeless. It’s a zero-sum game.
oh and the first three from Joshua Tree (duh)
Wrens, The Meadowlarks: Happy, She Sends Kisses, This Boy is Exhausted
I agree that it is a major deviation. But I prefer to view the two separately. I loved the first book in the trilogy. I also loved this movie adaptation. I think they both had tremendous depth and meaning in their own distinct ways. I can see how the deviations would offend others, however.
No mention of the new Kacey Musgraves album?
I maintain that A.I. is a terrific movie and one of Spielberg’s finest moments. It is an emotional roller-coaster, and I don’t believe that it’s more melodramatic moments undercut the ideas being presented throughout. And as for the ending, it broke my fucking heart - which was the point, right?
I think I was around 14-15 when I first listened to Radiohead. At the time, my older brother was working as a disc jockey in Juneau, Alaska (of all places), and I remember foolishly asking him for some tips on music to listen to so I would look hip at school. To me, my brother was and remains the coolest fucker I…
Watching Denise Richards and Neve Campbell lock lips in a pool was the precise moment at which I became a man.
until P4K drops the 3.2/10 hammer
I’m excited for this movie. Anderson used to piss me off, but I’ve learned to accept him for what he is - a guy who makes really fucking good movies.
I’m a BIG fan of Riley Keough. And It Follows is one of the better movies made in the last several years.
Not really sure that his production has plummeted all that drastically since 2015...
Agreed. Infinite Jest is not nearly on the same level as Gravity’s Rainbow. To suggest otherwise is foolish.
I love Mason & Dixon, and would not argue with someone who suggests it is better than Gravity’s Rainbow. I, however, would never make that argument.
Mason & Dixon?
