What About Bob is a classic.

We would make good friends.
Inherent Vice remains my favorite Anderson film. It is so profoundly sad, yet optimistic in a way.
2001: A Space Odyssey - I watched this movie for the first time when I was in high school and it upended how I viewed and appreciated art. It was a total mind-fuck, and has informed the type of speculative fiction and entertainment I enjoy some 15 years later.
That is an A+ headline. Brutal.
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.
