All those recording sessions, all that green-screen lip-synching, all that shitty VFX work… it all could have been saved if everyone involved had listened to Bowie's cover of "God Only Knows" from Tonight, the only cover version anyone needs*.

I Still Know What You Purged the Purge Before Last Purge

Thanks, Andrea! Yes, the homoeroticism in Under the Cherry Moon is truly off the chart.

I absolutely agree; I've always heard the song this way too. Prince is totally singing about a lover. "Sometimes it snows in April" metaphorically means: a person's life is supposed to begin in January and end with winter snow in December, but sometimes the curtain comes down much too early. At the time it was

Oh, it's SO much more watchable than Graffiti Bridge. So many scenes are so ridiculous that it is just luminous.

Don't you know I'll suh-LAP the waves out yo' hair!

Don't you see? "He" sucks on "He" (chemical symbol for Helium) and adds more "H" and "e"s to his name! He He Hee!

If the movie follows the stage casting, then Depp will also play Cinderella's Prince, which combined with the Wolf would make him as worthy of "star" billing as the Baker or Jack.

Me too, I was fucking traumatized by seeing the commercial once as a 10-year-old. I had stomach aches and trouble sleeping for about a year, mentally replaying those brief scenes of twitching heads and popping veins intercut with that "10 seconds to self-destruct" computer countdown. Every time the commercial came on

I wholeheartedly love eXistenZ. It's basically Videodrome redone as a comedy. By far his funniest movie.

It's funny how often I change my mind about how to rank 1, 2, 3 and 5. I love them all for different reasons and they suit different moods.

Something you're overlooking, J.P. — and I don't at all mean to sound like I'm saying this in a blaming, finger-pointing way, because just about *every* straight person overlooks this — is that coming out is not a one-and-done deal, but a perpetual lifelong process. You have to do it, in one fashion or another, with

The first one is Videodrome.
