  • The whole New Line 180 manufactured hype thing really bugs me, though. Originally, this movie was just quietly announced, and actually was being played pretty straight. It started becoming an internet phenomenon because of the ridiculous premise an…
  • While I'm definitely ashamed of how much more prevalent camps like that are in the south, the Dakotas, etc. compared elsewhere and hate that there is a very sizable vocal minority of the jingoistic flag wavers (Hey Geno's!) and Religious Right types…
  • cant wait!! But it is worng to make fun of Rednecks, perhaps the trucker hat folks at that rodeo are open minded liberals...one shouldnt find making fun of them entertaining, that is wrong...I doubt Sacha Baron Cohen really "knows" what the south i…
  • ...You didn't used to wear one of those "You laugh because I'm different, I laugh because you're all the same" shirts, by chance? I kid, I kid. C'mon Ev'rybody's talking about ministers, homo bashers, Bob Bannisters and true funkiters yachters and…
  • Yeah, I thought it was hilarious. Both in original form, and when you watch it with the alternate soundtrack w/ extra farts. It amazes me how good WHAS is, considering that they're lampooning (in an endearing homage way, sure) a genre that's prett…
  • well, I dont feel as if I was being self-congragulatory..I just think it is funny that some rednecks paid $8 to watch men in nascar uniforms make out with each other, that is comedy in itself. Also hearing folks reactions to said scenes was comedy.…
  • I've just seen this in written reviews a lot and don't like it. (The whole "will NASCAR fans [code: their preconceived cariactures of southerners] be offended?" thing.) Like their own little holier-than-thou subculture is the only one imaginable t…
  • But props to knowing who a big part of your audience was...redneck, Bush-lovin' NASCAR fans and casting Sacha Baron Cohen as a gay Frenchman and making rednecks watch men make out with each other. Heard EVERY redneck in the audience groan in disgus…
  • Oh man, finally all my posting on hiphopinfinity and studying under the great icon.the.mic.king and sankofa will finally pay off.
  • number 1 with a bullet: haha - my old mentor/professor hit one coming into campus at 5:30 AM. Totaled her Explorer. At least it took out the deer quickly instead of it being in pain.
  • This and the recent Tom Moulton comps constituted most of my workday listening in June.
  • Oh damn so on point, urban bike culture is insufferable...dudes who show up to parties looking scruffy with their jeans rolled up wearing messenger bags and ranger caps, gtfoohwtbs. I don't care how practical it is, you look like a hipster doofus. …
  • people who disrupt your daily food rituals. 90% of the people at dunkin donuts/starbuck at 8:55 am are like machines ordering their coffee. however, there is that annoying 10% who just came in off the street and wanna hold up the line while they or…
  • Similarly, Stan Brakhage's Dog Star Man could work. And those Treasures of American Film archives could be worthwhile. http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film/DVDReviews19/by_brakhage_dvd_review.htm http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film/DVDReviews5/moretreasures.htm
  • this list is incomplete without the x-men and aliens vs predator sidescrollers Oh good god yes - Aliens Vs Predator was Capcom's ultimate sidescrolling beat-em-up, which says a lot considering they gave us Final Fight, The Punisher, Dungeon & D…
  • I remember when my best friend and I went to this backwater town in Florida to see Ralph Stanley perform live. Lots of people selling novelty license plates, from the pregnant woman w/ shotgun screaming "GET BACK HERE, CHARLIE BROWN!" and "To hell …
  • I go between Opera and Firefox. I would stick with Opera (uses less memory, doesn't crash on certain pages/scripts, etc.) exclusively, but some of the Firefox-exclusive extensions has me hooked.
  • Ah, okay. I'll check 'em out next time I'm at Cue or Armands.
  • When I go home again in September, I'll fish them out. And since I'm not really a DJ, the only break/battle records that ever really interested me are quirky ones that have a lot of personality (personal fav. being the 8-Bit Contruction Set) or one…
  • Oh man, I loved Rescue 916. That's the one with the live Klamz Uv Deth routine at the beginning, right? Next time I go home, I need to fish out those cassettes and do a quick rip of 'em. And man, in high school, I played the hell out of DPSM. In…
  • That new Gibson movie about the Mayans sounds pretty cool actually. Not quite your standard Hollywood fare. I love how this is like a single frame in the trailer:
  • Also, to rep my Central Florida upbringing: Greater Orlando - Park Ave. (Hey Calvin) Brevard County - Play It Again in Melbourne
  • Since moving to Philly, it used to be 9th St. Records until it closed down this month. I have no clear favorite anymore. I guess Long in the Tooth, just because the dude's nice as hell, gives a healthy amount for CDs/vinyl trade-in, also appeals t…
  • There's a FLAC torrent of this up at oink right now.
  • I wish I liked that NMH album more, but I think my overall dislike for the whole Elephant 6 collective taints it for me.
  • I can understand being against the Dell Inspiron series (cheap plastic build), but Dell Latitude is great. Latitude's the business version with a sturdy build and none of that BS old lady software pre-installed that's a waste of space, plus cheaper…

  • That is a whole crazy thread of its own. The visuals are perfect, sometimes the soundtracks have been re-edited & the subs are not bad, but not perfect. I don't buy the lousy bootlegs. Only the R3 dvd's. This is the only way to own many of these…

  • Harvey, are you also hoping that P.E.A.C.E.'s Connoisseurs project does a full length, instead of just those two surprisingly great 12"s?
