There are a MILLION ways that you can make a movie that's not a "straight biopic" and not turn it into a latent episode of "Miami Vice." The central fallacy in Cheadle's argument is that if he didn't make this nonsense there's no way the movie could work, and everybody laps it up because he's so "brave." Miles was…

Then give him the new headphones.

Yeah! There's nothing I like more than shitty movies, especially if they could have been really great!

Glad he's not playing the Nazi.

I'd watch THAT. If there were Jordan almonds.

This sounds absolutely fucking stupid. And that's it for Miles Davis movies, kids. It pisses me off. I should also point out that "they've stolen the tape of my latest session and now I have to track it down" is the same plot as Paul McCartney's magnum opus, "Give My Regards to Broad Street."

I was just thinking that today. No lyric sheet, good luck. It's like he's not there on some of the songs.

In the documentary about him, his long-time girlfriend says he got them kicked out during a drug deal gone bad, but he used to say it didn't happen that way. He was also a lying, cheating, stealing, back-stabbing son-of-a-bitch. So I believe her.

I know a guy who played sax in one of Baker's bands back in the 70s. He says one day Chet said, "I don't understand you young guys. You're making all this money and you don't spend any of it on drugs."

"Fun House" is greatest straight-ahead rock album of all time. There. I said it.

There are still unreleased Prince tracks?! Does Prince know this?!

It's in their fighting in my list, too. Rest assured. There are a solid 20 or so movies from the decade that someone could conceivably pick, depending on their particular tastes: The Godfather pictures, Taxi Driver, Mean Streets, Nashville, All the President's Men, McCabe & Mrs. Miller, Jaws, Close Encounters,The…

"The French Connection" is my favorite movie of the 70s. There, I said it.

I can't imagine this will top "The Love Guru."

This Broomfield guy seems very much like an idiot sometimes.

Everybody will be really shitty with each other, and some girl will dance.

I remember being really bummed at how bad The Blind Leading the Naked was- I bought it the day it came out. All these years later, it still stinks.

…"and Steve Martin?"

Far, far better sound quality than streaming some crap over a set of ear buds, for one. But I know that doesn't really matter.

I think Franco tried to lay down an experimental bunt.
