That's what I mean. The progression of both sound and melody throughout that solo makes my brain tingle.

If you Google "Forrest Whitaker Shakespeare hammy," I'm pretty confident the top result would be a photo of Saw Gerrera, who is now somehow even more cheesy since I realized his first name is not "Saul."

Knopfler is underrated in my opinion. His work on that tune, as well as the syncopated funkiness on stuff like "Settin' Me Up" and "Southbound," is pretty tremendous.

• The "Sympathy for the Devil" solo is an excellent choice, though I'd have gone with the solo from the live verson on Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out.
• Hendrix's solo on "Voodoo Chile (Slight Return)" is definitely a contender in my book, as is the mind-boggling solo on the studio version of "Watchtower" I'm still unsure what…

Fair point. It's probably actually unfair to compare the two, since nothing about the original was meant to be fun. The original is a suspense-filled sci-fi horror film, and the first sequel is a rock-'em-sock-'em sci-fi action film which, I agree, is a lot of fun to watch.

I want to take this review seriously, but it's tough after reading the part where they said Aliens is the series' high point. I'll agree that it set the standard for sci-fi action flicks, but it is in no way better than the original Alien.

If Marcus Garvey merits an entry in the "Obscure Reference Alert" section, this country's education system is more f***ed than I thought. Good GAWD.

I won't complain as long as they add "Wheel of Fish" from UHF to the AVClub Features. "STUPID!! YOU'RE SO… STUPID!!"

I still think the step-thru-the-door-and-inhabit-someone-else concept of Drawing of the Three still makes it my favorite. I have no idea where the film version is going to lead, but boy, I sure hope to get a scene where Eddie Dean's eyes suddenly turn icy blue. I think that whole concept is ripe for an amazing visual…

I have a thumb drive in the AUX slot that shuffles its way through:

It's easy to see why the ending is controversial, and I agree with some readers that the final two books are a bit of a rush job. But overall it's one of the greatest book series I've ever read.

I was surprised at how much I enjoyed W&G even though it largely detoured from the main plot to fill in some of Roland's history.

Planning to re-read It in advance of the reboot opening, and looking forward to getting into Marlon James' A History of Seven Killings.

I never put any of my seedlings in the ground (Southwest PA) until Memorial Day weekend, but the carrots and lettuce I sowed outdoors have held up pretty well despite some cold temps, a frosty morning or two and a sh*tload of rain.

"Combs did not respond when asked for comment on whether or not he specifically requested Cambodian breast milk with every meal."

Usually whatever song I'm listening to when I get out of the car is the one that gets lodged in there. Today it's "Don't Give Your Heart to a Rambler" by Tony Rice. Not bad, as ear-worms go.

I like how this reviewer trashes Pitch Black on the same website that called it "a perfect one-shot" and "the gem of the Riddick series" three years ago.

It's hard to imagine a better running storyline for a new season than Archer slowly discovering and coming to love how much MORE of a dick he can be with an indestructible cyborg body.

As an Archer completist, I feel it's imperative to point out that "Cherlene" has not been included among Cheryl's backslashed list of alter egos.

All of this darkness and excellence still can't mask the fact that this is soft-serve ice cream. #HardIceCream4Lyfe
