I mean, I already did... those two smiley faces above pretty much say it all! And then there’s the third one with the tapping...

See ya!

Yeah, honestly—it’s happening all the time... though I guess even a dog wouldn't get caught up in someone else's jealousy...

You should really try to track down a live recording of Grinderman from Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, because let's be real—nothing beats that raw energy compared to a studio track!

Especially if that "someone" was basically the mastermind behind those albums in the first place. 🤣

Fair enough. 🙂

Everything’s fine—but honestly, when they sign things, they could just do it on the inside cover (I personally prefer it that way)—so their original vision for the art stays untouched. 👍

p.s. It wasn't exactly a struggle for Manu Chao or the Walkabouts to sign on the inside. 😉

Drew Lewis2 said:yeah
imho, they pretty much saved the whole festival

true.......

does anyone know if there's an audio recording of the full set somewhere?

p.s.—I'm talking about Grinderman and their performance!

You really shouldn't lump De Palma's Dalija in with the conspiracy thrillers—even if they share a similar vibe, they're totally different movies...
David Fincher is still playing in a league of his own, too!

quietmaker44 said:I honestly don't get it. In this day and age, with torrents and everything else out there, how does anyone actually struggle to find the movies they want to watch?? Personally, if I wanted something, I had it downloaded within a couple of days at most 🤷

The thing is, they're mostly just on torrent sites where download speeds are painfully slow... and even when you try hitting up private trackers, finding a decent collection is nearly impossible without paying $15 or $20 per title!

So, just imagine trying to build out a massive library of 700 titles plus whatever else you might want...

I’d really love to finally finish my MoC and Criterion collections—I’m only about a third of the way there right now... honestly, I don't have many other big goals!

My Greatest Enemy

But seriously—check this out—another absolutely incredible documentary. Burden of Dreams—honestly, such a powerful title.Man, talking about how they filmed *Fitzcarraldo*... it's just something else—really.

It’s basically instant—as soon as the old man snaps and says, "you better pay up if you want us to shut up about..." 😂

And man, just look at how it ends—the same choir pops up earlier too—if you actually have everything lined up to catch this specific insert 👍

Michael Ortiz68 said:I honestly think the opening of Fitzcarraldo is pure genius—those shots of the Brazilian jungle are just... wow.

Oh, that's easy—there are plenty of movies with great openings, but this one hits different... have you actually seen it?

The opening of Herzog's Cobar Verde is just... incredibly gripping—truly phenomenal!

Once upon a time in the West

everything else just feels way below...

The Shawshank Redemption

Forrest Gump
Man, there's like a million others. Honestly, picking just three is way too hard.🤷

especially if you count those little fifteen-minute segments in a three-hour movie 😉

Lady with the Camellias
Camellia Hurricane High

Easy Rider Hopper
I guess you could call it a dry spell—just a bit of a rough patch. Bernardo Bertolucci
Harris Pollock I'm not quite sure what you mean by that—maybe I missed the context entirely? My bad!
Dances with Wolves. Such a massive, sweeping epic—really sticks with you. Costa Hard Times Hill
Costa Hard Times Hill I can't quite tell what you meant by that—it looks like a typo or maybe just a fragment! If you were trying to say something specific, please let me know—I'd love to catch up on the conversation.

These are definitely films worth watching—especially Hopper's debut, which he hasn't quite topped since then (:

So... did absolutely nobody watch the pilot episode!?

I’m honestly bummed they didn't pick up the series after the pilot—judging by how that first episode went, it actually had some real potential! Though, I have to admit, the movie itself works pretty well as a standalone piece...

THX said:Which parts are people disagreeing on? 😕

And who did you pick as the lead—basically, out of that Pearce-Crowe-Spacey trio, who was the weak link?

I'm talking about Black Dahlia...

Richard Wilson4
I actually thought you loved Black Dahlia—but looking back at what you wrote, I see you were raving about L.A., yet you didn't really say anything about the Black Dahlia itself. 🤣

Richard Wilson4 said:I caught Black Dahlia in theaters a few years back—but I finally sat down to watch it properly yesterday—and man, I really missed out before, because this movie is just incredible! 👍

A lot of people might disagree with me here, but I've gotta say... I'm on board. My only real gripe is the lead actor—he was just off, in every sense of the word.
