Personally, I don't think this review of Troop Beverly Hills was long enough.

Yup - any serious article/interview/feature on Rush, and each band member will name check Yes as a major influence. There's one interview with them from the late 70s where they recount how they went to see Yes on the Relayer tour as they were working on Caress of Steel, and after seeing that performance, they went…

To truly illustrate just how out of touch and ridiculous Jann Wenner is, one should read Neil Peart's last book where he recounts how at the rehearsals for the end-of-show "Crossrods" performance for the RRHOF induction the year Rush was inducted, JW came to him to give him "pointers" about how to play the song.

and this song came from his early 80s sessions with White & Jimmy Page (the aborted XYZ project)

RIP. In addition to his prowess on the bass, just like Jon Anderson, he had a very distinct voice and his background vocals were such a part of Yes' sound (the "In her white lace" section of "Close to the Edge" and the middle piano/drum/vocal part of "South Side of the Sky" — what tremendously moving pieces of music…

This article is shit. This writer is shit. No one has the right to throw ANYTHING on stage at a performer, I don't care if it's a paper airplane. I love the people just taking this opportunity to goof on the lead singer of what they consider a has been band — certainly none of them ever asked to get up on stage and…

Haven't seen it in many years, but always loved this movie (not to mention the closing song over the credits "While the Earth Sleeps" by Deep Forest and Peter Gabriel). Anyway, around this time, Ralph Fiennes would've made a great Indiana Jones based on his performance in this.

As Jimmy arrives at the end for his meeting, there is a nervousness (checking his image in the side view mirror, practicing small talk/introduction) that was not there when he seamlessly went back into his Slippin' Jimmy persona for a week. Before he goes in, he realizes this — he realizes that he should follow the…

The scene is fine. Prior to him coming to the table, all three characters are having a tense, unpleasant conversation. Think to your own life — when you're in public having one of these experiences, and then a stranger or a friend comes up and adds some levity to things, it's hard to "snap out" of the emotions you…

Good point. "Roseanne" was probably the most real portrayal of the average American family in the late 80s/early 90s — the first couple of seasons are pretty amazing. Went downhill super quick though.

Loved "Nebraska," but yes — "The Descendants" — not good. Probably could've been salvaged by having a better actor than Clooney in the lead role — I immediately thought Bryan Cranston could've taken it to a whole different level. Regardless, Payne is probably my favorite director working today.

Payne wanted him for "Nebraska." Bruce Dern did a great job, but would've been great to see Hackman in it.
