[QUOTE=cobert]From Dusk Til Dawn was good just because of how completely absurd the idea of the movie is. Plus, Tarantino was in it.

I heard that Stephen King disowned the film version of The Shining because it didnt really match up with the book at all.[/QUOTE]
true about king. he actually liked the made for tv mini-series more. i love king, but when it comes to this i think he's full of it. he should of been kissing kubricks arse. king should stick to writing...

cbmartinez 08-08-2006 07:11 PM

Cabin Fever had the humor in it which I liked. Because Eli Roth at least had a sense of humor about making a horror movie, isntead of trying to be all dark and serious (see: Hostel). Plus, the whole sickness thing, that could actually happen and that's what made the movie scary.

yeah. it was fairly disgusting and horrible. the whole premise, like you said. it just made me feel weak and woosy :(

cbmartinez 08-08-2006 07:18 PM

I thought I was going to puke, when she's running the razor over her sores. Ugh, that was so gross.

Yeah, it was still a good movie, but just that it took the same name, and it was expected to follow the plot at least a [i]little[/i] bit closer.

Quentin Tarantino refused to take credit for writing [i]Natural Born Killers[/i] because the editors of the film completely butchered what he had in mind.

CHRIS: Horror movies are always good with a little bit of comedy in them. [i]Hostel[/i] did have the bit thought with the guy the main character meets in the locker room just before he goes to torture the girl. I still maintain my position that unless you saw that movie in a theatre, or if you watch it with a bunch of friends, it will be a completely different movie.

i don't remember a whole lot specifically. but i remember it being real sad. they would lock people away. put one girl in a shed and her boyfriend didn't want to leave her or something. flesh tearing off the body, vomit and disease, just grossness all around...

cbmartinez 08-08-2006 07:21 PM

Hostel was terrible no matter how you watched it. The gore was sweet but the plot sucked. It was a Tarentino wanna be through and through.

Yeah. Tarantino had a prob with Oliver Stone, too. Again like King he thought he changed his story too much. Doesn't matter IMO. NBK is an awesomely good film. A classic, IMO. And as good as Quentin is I'm sorry, he is no Oliver Stone...

cobert 08-08-2006 07:28 PM

I would actually like to see the film made from tarantinos script, just to see the differences. NBK was still a good movie, though.

I think what made Cabin Fever so great was that it just had this sense of despair. Its like you felt the entire way through that none of the characters were going to make it.

cbmartinez 08-08-2006 07:29 PM

New Subject: Gospel is one of the top 3 bands in emo

cobert 08-08-2006 07:34 PM

Currently, or of all time?

Chilly-Bean-Bop 08-08-2006 07:38 PM

[QUOTE=JXD]Yes, odd. I thought feakishly scary, too. The original Texas Chainsaw Massacre is worth a look. The Exorcist, Event Horizon, and for horror/suspense The Shining. The original Kubrick directed one. From Dusk To Dawn for outlaw/vampire horror is good, too.[/QUOTE]

The Exorcist is a fantastic movie.

The Shining with Jack Nicholson, oh my god that is THE best.

I gotta do homework be back lateruhzzzZz

cobert 08-08-2006 07:39 PM

Bye Chels.

cbmartinez 08-08-2006 07:47 PM

Currently, but they are up there on all time list too.

cobert 08-08-2006 07:52 PM

Yeah, they are pretty good. Some parts get a bit too proggy for me, where theyre borderline corny, but theyre a good band.

DepthsOfDreams555 08-08-2006 08:06 PM

I just got done watching a movie called Life As A House, it was crazy sad, but it was good.

cobert 08-08-2006 08:09 PM

That movie was so dam[size=2]n[/size] depressing.

DepthsOfDreams555 08-08-2006 08:11 PM

You saw it? I had never heard of it. I know I just watched and I'm am so depressed.

cobert 08-08-2006 08:14 PM

Yeah, i saw it a while ago.

I wouldnt be able to watch it anymore without thinking about Anakin Skywalker.

DepthsOfDreams555 08-08-2006 08:17 PM

Haha that's exactly what I was thinking about. But I got over it within like 15 minutes.

cobert 08-08-2006 09:15 PM

Ive decided that Im going to read all of the articles and sub-articles about WWII on wikipedia. Because its interesting.

And MX is moving slow, so i will bow out for the night.

Understanding In a Crash 08-08-2006 09:17 PM

Don't do it. I'll be here now.

fghtffyrdmns 08-08-2006 10:03 PM

I was at Warped today in Charlotte. Anyone else from here get to go?

Tjebby 08-08-2006 10:46 PM

I'm about to watch Requiem For A Dream. Or Van Wilder. I don't know yet.

magnolia, wtf? You know The Who are a hard band to pin. They have had such a long and storied career. Built there rep as a live band, and Pete wrote songs not with studio recording in mind, but live performance.

To get started I have to recommend Live At Leeds. It's raw, loud, and a completely [I]physical[/I] live recording. Stilll considered the greatest live rock album ever, get the one WITHOUT Tommy. The deluxe edition is fine. But make sure it doesn't include Tommy (the rock opera). For a studio album I recommend Quadrophenia. It's a great double album that tells a good story. For early Who or a great overview of them in the studio and onstage from '65 to '78, The Kids Are Alright SOUNDTRACK. That's how I got started. The Who are not for everyone, perhaps. Or at least not everyone will think they are great. But if you give them a fair chance and don't mind a little eccentricity they can be very rewarding.

Lastly I would upload some of this stuff for you but all my Who stuff is on vinyl or poor quality mp3. But I will be getting there full library soon. Should have it by October. If you can wait I'd be more then happy to share as much as I can with you. I'm always happy to expose someone to music I love and I think is worthwhile. So yeah, I'll check back with you and you do the same if you don't here from me...

Until then the original 6 song Live At Leeds is what I recommend. Or the "Tommy-less" Deluxe Edition...

form 08-09-2006 12:31 AM

ok cool, thanks john, ill check those out

[QUOTE]The Who are not for everyone, perhaps. Or at least not everyone will think they are great.[/QUOTE]

i know what you mean, but before i asked i was listening to some sample tracks on itunes, so i just wanted to know where to get started to listen to more :)

BridgeToSolace 08-09-2006 12:48 AM

My friend made me listen to The Who once, so that I could hear the "greating ****ing musicians of all time" (his words).

I was kinda bored.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Queen is the only decent classic rock band.

TheBigMachine 08-09-2006 01:34 AM

I dont like Queen that much, not really my style. Zeppelin and Purple ftw.

Chilly-Bean-Bop 08-09-2006 06:17 AM

omg its 7:15. while I'm gone, discuss how much waking up early sucks.

The Who were not even close to the greatest musicians. Moon and Entwistle were exceptional musicians. Yes, great. But that is not what The Who were about at all. And still aren't. So looking at them that way, yeah I can see where you might be bored.

Dead Star 08-09-2006 08:27 AM

Its 2.25 and i'm just up.

Black Ink 08-09-2006 09:41 AM

I feel awesome today. Tomorrow I go to Montreal and start my sweet weekend there, this morning I finally figured out the automated system for my station and got it running, and then later tonight I'm going out to dinner with my girl and then heading to a pool hall with her for the rest of the night.

:)

Untitled 08-09-2006 09:52 AM

I baught a camping chair for leeds festival today, it has a cup holder and legs, and some arms, it was only £6, but you know. Its cool.
