I like all of these things too, including the Matrix sequels.

I'm with ya buddy. Everything with Sofia and Andy Garcia is fairly dire, but the rest is excellent and a necessary conclusion to the story. Part I & II are the story of Michael's rise and spiritual fall, but Part III is where he finally pays for those sins. It's frustrating that it's in such a flawed film, but I do…
I had raw pork cheek bacon and it was the most incredible meat I've ever tasted. It just melts in your mouth. I want some now.
This is it, Homer. The cleverest thing you've ever said and nobody heard it.
It really is one of the best bits of improv I've seen in a while
Most power-pop bands would sacrifice their firstborn to write a song like Photograph.
Yeah, what the hell? I'm 27 and still discovering new favorite music. Sleater-Kinney's The Woods is an all-time top-10 album for me and I didn't discover it till I was 25. Just because you're lazy, boorish and bitter doesn't mean the rest of us are.
So I'm not the only one! I was in 4th grade when the show debuted and was juuuuust a little too old to see it as anything but horseshit. Of course I watched it anyway, because what the hell else are you gonna do as a kid, and then I'd make fun of it all day at school. Thus my path was set.
I saw Salo when I was 14. I win.
My first exposure to Bebop was Ballad of Fallen Angels. Randomly came across it on Adult Swim when I was 17, a film geek, and a big fan of John Woo. So you can see why I came away from that episode feeling that I'd seen something truly special, with a burning NEED to see the rest of the show AS SOON AS FUCKING…
For Realzies, I hate to be that guy but you clearly didn't "get" BVD. Plus that quote isn't even close to correct.
Quick nitpick
This list is awesome, but I have one little correction: the Defender hyperspace line is in reference to the fact that the game was so intense and had so many buttons to juggle, simply moving your hand to hit the hyperspace button could kill you. A lot of hardcore gamers at the time would get a partner to…
The true winner
was anyone following Norm MacDonald's tweets during the ceremony. Literal tears of laughter.
"2001 was probably a tipping point for most people in their early-to-mid 20s…I was born in 1986"
It's from Nuggets II but I gotta go with The Wheels' Bad Little Woman. It's all pretty standard driving garage blues-rock and then the band starts playing faster and faster and the singer gets more and more unhinged until it's just a furious screaming assault. And then they cut it off at the peak and start again. It's…
Titanic really gets a bad rap. It's a damn good movie, a skillful and thoroughly entertaining example of its genre (the epic costume drama.) Yes it's pretty shallow and straightforward, but plenty of great movies are. L.A. Confidential was the best of the nominees that year, I think everyone can agree on that, but…
Sorry, I watched IAMMMMW recently and it was literally painful. Amazing cast, but they're not allowed to do a single funny thing. It was like Michael Bay does slapstick.
Yeah, around 2000/2001 AMC was almost as good as TCM. Uncut, commercial free, and an excellent selection. I know I still have some VHS tapes floating around with the likes of Apocalypse Now, Vertigo, even some oddities like Invasion of the Saucer Men, all taken from there.
Alright you assholes
