Its time to think of regime change in Iraq. There will never be peace in the Middle East until the regime is gone.

Agree. Everything after Waters is boring, bland, and simple. Modest Mouse-everything after Moon and Antarctica.
Beatles, Clash, Kinks, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Rolling Stones, Rush, Smiths, Talking Heads, Velvet Underground, Yes, ZZ Top.
Is that After Dark My Sweet? Rachel Ward was sexy as hell in that.

Smile is a great album. Imagine if it had been released as planned. RIP to one of the great ones.

The Grifters

excellent flick
Huston's hair gave it away


The Jim Thompson book is even better. He was one of the best American noir writers going. The Getaway, After Dark My Sweet, and The Grifters were all movies based on his books. They should do more and start with Recoil.

Yes. And Smurf totally had sex with a young Pope. They made that kind of obvious. Great series, but i got disinterested when Dennis Leary showed up.
Every year directors try to do more w/ CGI and less w/ practical effects and every year that CGI just looks worse. Especially when you are trying to show a whole city imploding. San Andreas was on last night and that movie looks like total shite as the city falls apart. Cartoonish even. They must have put the whole budget in the Rock's salary. At least we won't get a D[E]Isney plot.
Man this is going to suck. Subversion of the original story to meet a political agenda; DEI good. Ironic.


That is Tim Roth, John Hurt, and Terrance Stamp in 1984. Tough one.


Tunes of Glory. Sir Alec was magnificent in it. My dad told me they had him watch that when he was in the Army.

The man was a genius. There's a Riot Going On is a true classic. RIP.
