In my opinion, the biggest flaw in The Matrix is the lackluster acting from Keanu Reeves and Kate Moss, especially when you look at the second installment...

I'm also leaning toward the idea that the third installment is going to be a total disaster, potentially even worse than the second one, if that’s even possible...

I honestly can't wrap my head around why he walked away with so many awards...🙄

Well, you are... what else could I possibly expect from someone who claimed Nirvana was playing satanic music... yeah, let's not forget that absolute peak of stupidity... JUST KIDDING😁

Jose Barrett31 said:Hair length doesn't actually dictate how much hair you lose. There’s no real proof that people with long hair go bald more often than anyone else... the real issue is just mechanical damage, like pulling it too tight in a ponytail or being too aggressive with a comb. Some studies suggest that being completely bald might help circulation slightly because of sun exposure, but honestly, that's negligible. Losing up to 80 strands a day is considered perfectly normal.

I lose at least 20 hairs every time I wash my hair, so clearly that's within the normal range 😕, but the thing is, all my friends swear they don't lose a single strand when they wash theirs. I can't tell if they're just not paying attention or what... even women lose hair when they wash it...

You might want to try tracking down "Mothmanov prophecies"... honestly, it’s been the best film I’ve sat through all year.

Sophia Flores82 said:Yeah, sure...
😕

but I still think you're just a poser...

Maybe it’s best if I just stop talking trash about Nirvana before I end up on the wrong side of every single one of their fans again...🙄

Sophia Flores82 said:Go tell them that!!!
Basically, if you don't know what a fake is, then you're just as much of a fraud yourself, though in my estimation, you're probably the most fraudulent fake ever to crawl through those circles of phonies...
you absolute fraud...
phony as they come...

F A K E Y O U !!

👍 😁

He’s being incredibly crude... honestly, just get lost. If you didn't know better, Nirvana didn't just drop a single track and one lone album, you mindless idiot. They were actually positive people, and they don't deserve to be insulted by some small-town jerk like you... just because you have money doesn't mean you can lecture the entire world...

Please, go ahead and explain to me how Nirvana is somehow superior to any other "grunge" band, and why on earth you've decided they're some kind of icons of positivity. I'm well aware Nirvana didn't just release one album—they released five 🙄. The thing is, Kurt Cobain basically lifted a riff from Debaser and then ended up copying himself later when he wrote Rape Me, though I suppose all three songs are decent enough. And regarding your little comment about "just because you have money..." what exactly makes you think I'm loaded 😕?
What really kills me, though, is how a self-proclaimed Nirvana fan like you hasn't even heard the Pixies yet... you're probably just some poser 👎

Ethan Jones42 said:All those other comments are complete garbage compared to my perfect breakdown of why I think the way I do.
But I don't get this part, so give me an argument, explain it, or just make yourself clear...

😬

Just listen to that riff from Smells Like Teen Spirit and you'll realize it's identical to the one in Smells Like Teen Spirit, and honestly, I think Kurt Cobain admitted as much himself...

Ethan Jones42 said:Smells Like Teen Spirit was arguably the biggest song on the planet, and honestly, it still holds that title... specifically when you consider it’s one of the most high-quality tracks out there, not some pathetic, tear-jerking ballad, but a sharp, aggressive anthem about actual life instead of that mindless nonsense that has zero connection to reality, I suppose... and while it might not stack up against pure blues, you could easily draw a line between it and standard country music. They serve the exact same purpose for people: playing at parties, when everyone's drunk, when they're feeling low, or when things are just falling apart...

Smells Like Teen Spirit is nothing more than a blatant rip-off of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" from the Pixies era...

Kevin Chavez3 said:How did I manage to forget that on my own?

Ethan Perez97, where exactly did you hear a solo in "The Joker"? 😁

It kicks in at 03:13, assuming you can even call it a solo... though by definition, a single note counts as one...

Thomas Edwards82 said:I’ve always found the Aliens series to be a pretty solid run overall. To be fair, the first two are absolute masterpieces—easily some of the best sci-fi ever made back in the late 70s and early 80s—though the last couple of entries aren't quite up to that standard...

Thanks for enlightening us with all that groundbreaking info, we were totally in the dark...😁 😁 😁

But in all seriousness, regarding the third installment, I’d rank it right after the original because it manages to capture that specific atmosphere and narrative tension better than most, plus, in my opinion, it features the best designed extraterrestrial of them all...👍

Zachary Bennett3 said:It’s pretty obvious you haven't seen the third or fourth installments.🙂

I sat through the third one and honestly, I'm done with the whole franchise... I couldn't tell you if the fourth one manages to be worse than the second, nor do I care to find out, but I know for a fact that the second one was the absolute bottom of the barrel...

Kevin Chavez3 said:Right, so we've reached that "you see me, we're on the same page" stage... 🙄 Fine, fine.

Glad we finally see eye to eye... 😛

redcrane28 said:screw you and Mark Knopfler, my old men have much more modern tastes in music than you do...

I'm not really sure what point you're trying to make here, because frankly, I couldn't care less about having "modern" musical tastes, since if that were actually the goal, I'd just be listening to Britney Spears or Justin Timberlake 👎

Jason Rogers said:Basically, if you spent three years playing eighteen hours a day and kept up that kind of grind, you could pretty much expect to emerge as some world-renowned guitarist by next year... 👍

I was just laying out some facts about Slash, so there's really no need to get personal with me... 🙄

Jason Rogers said:And just like that, he's practically becoming Slash... 😁

Slash picked up the guitar back in '79, and by '87 he was already a household name, which really shows that you don't necessarily need a whole lifetime to reach that level of mastery if you have the drive... the trick was that the guy would pull twelve-hour sessions every single day, so you have to give him his due, he truly is one of the great players... 👍

Kevin Chavez3 said:Almost every punk song The Clash ever wrote features a guitar solo, kid.

Sure, they do, but the real question is what kind of solos we’re actually talking about... take that "solo" in Bankrobber, for instance, and please, just try to explain to me what that actually was... look, I enjoy listening to various punk bands here and there, but sometimes their attempts can feel almost comical, much like the example mentioned above. It isn't that all punk musicians are like this; I generally appreciate the playing style of East Bay Raya, and "Holiday in Cambodia" is actually a well-structured track with some fairly complex elements, plus you need decent alternative picking just to nail some of their riffs, so I have to give The Kennedys their due respect 🙏; but my point was specifically about The Clash and The Sex Pistols since they both appear on this list, and I recall reading somewhere that the most famous punk solo from GSTQ was actually played by a session guitarist rather than Steve Jones, because he wasn't experienced enough at the time to pull something like that off, and whether that's true or not, I really don't know, but those are just things I've heard. Anyway, I won't keep rambling with my pointless comments since I'm still just an eighteen-year-old kid who hasn't quite reached the age where I can claim to be an authority on punk... 🙂

Zachary Bennett3 :
Basically, if you look at the last five or six years—maybe even longer—there hasn't been a single decent big-budget Sci-Fi Horror film. I'd honestly rather sit through Godzilla vs. Mechanozilla ten times over than watch Sphere just twice...

And yeah, Sphere was absolute garbage... easily one of the worst pieces of Sci-Fi ever made.

Tufir ii said:Maybe Dire Straits 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

Dire Straits certainly 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏

When it comes to punks and their actual musical ability—specifically how they handle their instruments—it’s just mediocre. I’ve been playing guitar for three years, not that I’m bragging, but I honestly play better than any of them; punk is essentially one giant musical hoax. I'll admit there are some decent songs in there, but the whole thing is full of holes, and I always find myself wondering why there are no solos in punk. Every punk will try to tell me it's because they aren't necessary or because that's just the nature of the genre, but the real answer is simply that they didn't know how to play them;... 👎

And Dan Luka can get lost, everyone else here is just sucking up to him, but I certainly won't 👎
