I’ve been listening to the 2017 Pan label comp Mono No Aware, having been reminded of it after hearing they sued Kanye for not clearing a sample or something. Anyway, it’s great. Much better than that Oneohtrix Point Never pop shite that just came out. Also, the latest Analog Africa compilation African Scream Contest 2…
As much as I like Dave Grohl, Paul Whaley is the original mop with arms:
I think I’ve seen this movie twice, but high both times. I remember liking it, having assumed that its not holding together was my problem. Maybe time for a sober rewatch.
That would explain why you’re such a dick
Wasn’t there a Martin Lawrence wannabe rooming with a Garth Brooks wannabe, and then the Martin Lawrence wannabe got kicked out for playing grabass or something? Was that before or after Puck?
“...a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful human being.”
Kind of can’t believe that no review I have seen mentions how much certain songs sound like Bon Iver. First time I heard “Babylon,” I thought, Really, guy? Aren’t you better than that? Whatever, Tim Hecker pisses on this dude.
Hey, you got High Fidelity into my About a Boy!
I’m no Wheatley scholar, having only seen this and High-Rise, but he seems to have a thing for very close quarters combat. In other news, I really like that MyAnna Buring. So cute but she’s got an edge, too.
Obviously “Burbank” prophesies our financial institutions’ “coldness” toward its customers when it invested too heavily in credit default swaps less than a decade later. My God, the layers to this film...
... and this is what I find most terrifying about these A24 horrors (well, this and The Witch). Unlike roughly 100 percent of Hollywood movies that have ever been made, these movies both seem to be attacking the family—not “family values” bullshit but family as a concept, like the basic social unit wherein people…
I think it’s interesting that the character is named “Truman,” as in “true man.” Pretty cerebral stuff.
After looking over all 136 posters very carefully, I’m beginning to sense an overarching theme, one that might have something to do with security.
“... author, most recently, of The One True Barbecue, and is currently writing a book about southern rock.”
I made a goddamn idiot out of myself at work a couple of weeks ago, having mistakenly clicked on the trailer. My boss went from “Quit fooling around” to “Oh my God, are you OK?” in like two seconds.
Ooh, I love that he appreciated a dirty joke. I really hope he said at least once to his wife, “How would you like a good Rogering?”
Weekend Box Office: In its second week, Solo could have used more accompaniment
“There is no dark side of Florida, really. Matter of fact, it’s all dark.”
Judging by that picture at top, I would guess he left the Crow remake to take a starring role in Harry Potter Becomes a Gold Prospector.
Interesting, I watched it for the first time last night. I liked it but I thought it went on too long. Jared Leto’s speech was OK with me because it established him as not just a victim of circumstance but an outright maniac. What I felt like I didn’t need was one-eyed Hiam Abbass. Not that what she said wasn’t…
