Y'all got a few more days to watch Babe and Babe: Pig in the City. I recommend you do.

It was really funny. Is that an ideology?

Favorite piece of info gleaned from review: 107 minutes!!

For years, I used the same argument as you're using here. However, once I decided to stop using "gay" and "retard" as a pejorative, even if I was being "ironic" about it, and even though it was only around other like-minded folks, I noticed that my thought-patterns changed.

…doesn't mean it's too late to remove it from your speech.

"Do you have any Jon Spencer Blue's Explosion?" "No, why the fuck would I do that? Nobody actually likes that band, especially not an 18 year old kid in Atlanta."

I wouldn't mind the musical interludes if they were shot like the rest of the show. This Nine Inch Nails one, in particular, was shot like a dumb 90's fake-concert-music-video. And then it was followed by an incredible Penderecki music video…why exhaust your viewers over and and over again?

Really enjoyed the first three episodes, but episode four has a bad case of "people acting like 2017 television show characters"….just too much shit that scans as false, or too poignant. Stuff that made me stop watching Orange Is The New Black, Frankie and Gracie, Stranger Things, Transparent, etc. etc.

Or you avoid whatever "marketing" you have foisted upon them and listen to their music. If you don't like the music, then whatever, but you don't say a thing about their music.

How do you feel about their use of repetition, though?

Miley Cyrus has a fantastic voice. I love Haim, and they have an incredible gift for harmony and phrasing, but Miley can outsing any of them on their own.

I don't know what an "alternative rock song" is, but there is plenty of guitar across the whole album. Are you talking about distorted electric guitar? If so, there is less of that on this album than on Days Are Gone, though there are a couple of great fuzz guitar solos. Did you listen to it on your laptop speakers?…

This review (and the show) make Ruth out to be more of a villain than I find her to be, and remove culpability from Debbie's husband.

Dope

Robert Beatty did it. He's done great work for years, probably most famously for the last Tame Impala record. He also did the artwork for both albums for a band I was in, Ga'an: http://www.robertbeattyart….

It was a huge bummer before he was elected. Now it has the capacity to crush one's soul

Main character in Drive is The Kid. In BD it's Baby. They both say very little. They both want to run away from it all with a woman. They both don't have a family. They both are super "cool". When asked what they do, they both reply "I drive", and their love interests both respond with something like "like a limo…

It shares more than that, including a few lines, and a couple of other ideas.

The trailer for Atomic Blonde played right before Baby Driver last night - obviously I haven't seen Atomic Blonde yet, but they seem to traffic in a similar territory, and I really wish it had played last night rather than Baby Driver.

A pretty entertaining variation on the "young white man gets everything he wants" genre. Wish it felt more like a musical, because then the implausibility of this kid getting away with everything would be easier to stomach.
