    I can't fault the American public too much if we can't defeat him in 2020, we are Human After All.

    The name is a good sign IMO, it means they aren't going with the "Teen Jedi Academy" plots the EU delved into after ROTJ.

    Tim Calhoun = Ted Cruz

    There have actually been times recently in warfare where such charges have taken place, the 2015 Porte de Vincennes siege in France was a good example. When police raided the building one lone commando ran in guns ablazing and took down the gunman. It's incredible footage. There are some Leeroy Jenkins remixes of it

    This is the holy grail of lost films and horrible movies, I've literally never wanted to watch something so much out of morbid curiosity. I bet though it'll be not as terrible nor fascinating as it's been made out to be.

    Yeah Life Is Beautiful still has a man trying to shield protect his son until the very end and, while it's a bit of saccharine tear jerker, the death scene is actually the most effective part of the movie. Not just the sad and bittersweet twist with the tank but when he's actually killed. There's no dramatic music or

    Same here, I've been utterly perplexed and intrigued by it.

    "It's funny they still believe."

    Also, isn't this covered under parody/homage laws? Or is that just an American Courts thing? ( I want to say the SCOTUS case Weird Al Vs. Coolio set that precedent )

    Over the years I've wondered if Tina has espoused the idea that being weird, awkward, and aloof can be more than just a gimmick but a sincere and deep-rooted part of one's personality. Her oddness has been emotionally endearing as often as it has been a running gag.

    Something I must point out is how fucking incredible the process in making this music was back in the early 70s. There was no digital recorders. No MIDI. Very few people even knew how to operate a synth, let alone maximize it's abilities through the days and weeks of meticulous patching and adjusting settings. Moogs

    I knew this song as a kid because it was in one of those Weird Al polka melodies. I remember singing it later at a store or something and my mom insisted that I don't sing that in public.

    I used last.fm for a long time too. Apple Music seems aimed at not expanding or diversifying someone's musical collection but just steering it toward whatever they are hyping at the time. It's even gotten into some music journalism sites - pitchfork for example is pedaling Apple Music hard.

    Cassette culture exists as a underground music format - it's so people can support other DIY artists by buying neat looking tapes with unique music. It has nothing to do with any delusional idea that it's a good sounding format.

    I knew as soon as the group finally cut Tandy some slack and Phil was about to head out, they had to throw another big ass wrench in there. I should of seen it coming when they showed so many scenes with Carol talking about having a baby.

    When Tandy was singing all I heard was my dad. He's done that was working on stuff since I can remember. Then I realized I was singing made up lyrics to Bowie "Changes" while changing my son's diaper and I remembered I do it too.

    Or in the more casual appropriated and less offensive variation: no-magi. Like "sup no-magi!" or "he's such a broke ass no-magi"

    Huge Grimes fan and I've been anticipating this for literally years now. Art Angels is about what I expected, right between my high expectations and worst fears. I like this but I get why it's divisive and, in the case of my perspective, a bit disappointing. It's like something was lost in Grimes perfecting and

    I'm assuming he's going to return to the earth after a long build-up, figuring out some epic way of re-entering, talking to his brother via ham radio or something, etc. only to come out and immediately succumb to the virus that killed mostly everyone else.

    I know it's out there, seen shreds of it crop up in places but for the most part I don't stumble upon those parts of the internet.
