This may be true, but I gave up with Pop. I've since grown an affinity for ATYCLB but I still can't get into Pop and it's vastly more dated and doesn't hold up as well as songs like In a Little While, Walk On etc.

Last night was definitely my favorite music on the show - the musical stuff has worn thin for me but that worked like a charm.

I went once and had a not-conventionally-attractive pregnant waitress. Maybe there's a caveat to the "no uggos or fatties" rule?

One I always liked:
"Seventeen had a better dream / now I'm 33, and it isn't me / but I'd think of something better if I could."

Yeah, but then the soundtrack went Gold and certainly found them some new fans so not like it was a terribly unfair deal overall.

I sort of like how it felt like they rented a crane for one day and HAD to get their money's worth out of it (there are a lot of those pull back crane shots I think - the mother's funeral, the hamsters funeral…) but it tied certain parts of the movie together in a way that worked.

Parachutes and Rush of Blood are both great albums, even XY wasn't so bad as it retread those two albums. From there though…

I wouldn't call it one of my favorites, but huge soft spot for it. I grabbed it on vinyl when they reissued it a couple years ago and while I liked some songs less than 20 years ago, some I liked a lot more.

The singles get a ton of shit, and I get it. I have a soft spot for all that 90's alt stuff and will defend bands a lot of people loathe (Counting Crows?) to my last breath.

"Mom, what's crystal meth and where can I get some to try this 'bump' thing?"

Posted after you, sorry didn't see this. In VA but yeah, on this and New Girl. It was pretty weird in that the dialog tracks kept dropping, but secondary effect tracks and music/soundtrack kept playing. At first I thought it was intentional and meta, then I realized it was just annoying and I couldn't watch the…

Virginia, so yeah east coast - that's weird it was someone complaining about those shows since they're different networks (though, I guess related).

So I had the tv on and caught the beginning of this episode and thought it was really weird that they were mouthing words to each other. I figured "sound out?" but no - the secondary audio tracks were there. I figured, okay, out of context.

I'd agree with this. I think I liked it when I saw it. I remember the car crash scene in the tunnel as pretty rad but I honestly forget what happens in the rest of the movie.

I always loved the running joke on Friends of Die Hard being the guys' favorite movie:
Ross: Die Hard, still great.
Joey: Whatdya say we make it a double feature, Die Hard 2 (holding up video rental).
Ross: Joey this is Die Hard 1 again.
Joey: So?
Ross: So it'll be great to watch it again!

I meant more it would probably just make the person hate it more. Everyone hates hearing that they don't like something because they "just don't get it."

Yeah sorry, really only felt judged for Mulholland, specifically because I really don't fall into that PTA "music video movie" group.

I wonder if someone could make the hater hate Mulholland Dr. more if they said "look, you probably don't get it, let's sit down and watch it and I'll explain what you're missing." Because to dislike David Lynch, fine, but to be a David Lynch fan and not like Mulholland Drive seems so strange to me.

It feels like a long time since I've been judged for liking Kid A, Funeral, and Mulholland Drive. I love those three things so incredibly much. Mulholland Drive, while I get people not liking it, seems like it shouldn't inspire hate based solely on what it does so well. The mood of that film is one of the creepiest…

I agree. Not with liking Crash (or even tolerating it at all) but that's a lousy criticism. All the people in Love Actually are connected because they're part of the same story. Of all the reasons to bash that movie, that the characters are connected is not a good one and that aspect works just as well there as it…
