I guess you're right. He does know how to befriend hotshot European directors. That must be the skill that other 27 y/o guys don't have.

In Funny Games he plays a variation of the theme (himself), but I wouldn't judge him so harshly. He is very effective in what he does, ie, being very creepy. And working for the titans of european cinema cannot be just luck and connections?

Maybe stick to what they know best? The AVClub is not well-known for their nuanced take on politics.

You haven't been keeping up with a certain email leak?

Definitively skip Pablo Honey. But if you haven't heard even Creep, then definitively listen to that.

Yes, I know. But B is only "good enough"!

Identikit alone is worth an A

After listening to the whole album quite a few times, Burn the Witch is the only track I am actually skipping in order to get to the fun parts. I couldn't disagree more with the reviewer and you. This album is a thing of beauty.

I found it to be a really solid effort … after about a 100 listens.

Defending? More being realistic in the sense that if you put yourself out there inevitably people are going to discuss things about you - you don't have to "sign your body to medical science" for that. But I don't think it is ok, no.

I don't think I was being judgemental, at all.

She did sign to be a public figure, and all that entails. And I am guessing she must be enjoying the many great benefits that also come with her popularity.

Nothing to do with being British, everything to do with being Adele.

She's a public figure.

Envy. I will end up paying loads more…

Sold-out too

Where did you leave your medication?

I respectfully disagree. It is animated because otherwise it would have been nearly impossible to adapt this to cinema without resorting to CGI. Also, it is probably the most accesible work CK has produced so far.

See "Breaking the Waves".

I think I understand. I do remember exactly where I was the first time I heard Kid A. After The National Anthem I had already decided it was brilliant. But for King of Limbs was quite the opposite. I must have heard it about 40 times and it had stopped growing on me. It wasn't after hearing the whole thing live that…
