    DVD Collections

    More than 85. My babies are: Bottle Rockets, Rushmore, Big Lebowski, Hudsucker Proxy, Barton Fink, Punch Drunk Love, Boogie Nights, Jackie Brown, Billy Madison, American Psycho, Unbreakable, Swingers and Made. I've always had large collections of movies. I have more than a hundred VHS tapes, too. When I was going to Wright State we had a whole closet with nothing but movies in it (and a box of porn, not mine unfortunately). 4 (big lebowski, rushmore, bottle rocket, swingers) of my top 20 movies are in that list. You need to get Royal Tenenbaums to complete your wes anderson collection. DVDs I recommend: any Family Guy, Rushmore, Bottle Rocket, Royal Tenenbaums, Fargo, Big Lebowski, Amelie, Trainspotting, Fight Club, any Tarantino flick, Get Shorty(sequel coming soon) I heard Barton Fink was great...true? Yeah, I own Tenenbaums, too, but it's not my fav of his three movies... I love Barton Fink. It's probably the Coen's best serious work to date (excluding possibly Miller's Crossing). But, you also have to know the character's their playing represent Faulkner and Clifford Odets, as well. But, Goodman is really good in it. It's his second best role he's ever done (besides Walter of Lebowski fame).

    dodge sucks. but russell does drive one. great to hear the fox bunch. Interesting to note that Dodge was forced out of Nascar years ago because they won too many races. Nascar banned the Hemi due to Ford and Chevy complaining and was basically forced of being out of competition. I think most NASCAR is crap today anyways. I think they should have to make the cars, productionwise, like they did back in the day (you know, when Dodge ruled it). Plus I think it's fixed. Moreso than boxing.
  4. This is not a personal attack on anyone except the two parties involved... I hate John Mayer! John Mayer and Dave Mathews are the same guy with turd-faced vocals and deep, "I'm feeling this"-white boy lyrics. They are the bottom of the barrel when it comes to music and I consider them to be CCM (Crappy College Music) and you can add "for white people" on the end. And everyone always talks about how "their music" is so good. Bleh. A few trumpets, etc. does not a good band make... Also, it really gets to me when people say stuff like, "I've seen John and he's soooooo good." He's got that whole vibe where his fans think they know him. Like when Dave Mathew's fans call him just "Dave." Listen, you don't know these guys personally, so where do you get off saying their average, middle of the road sounding names and worshipping at their feet? I can call Iggy Pop "Iggy" and it still doesn't sound half as retarded as when someone is going on and on about their personal friend "Dave." Plus, for my liking G. Love has much better music and vocals are so much more different (see: Philadelphonic sound) than anything I've ever heard. And G. doesn't have half of the fan base. Does he have a blaccent? Sure. But I'd take G. over those wimps Dave and John any day. G. is more the "wimpy, college boy" sound that I rock (when not listening to the Misfits, Iggy Pop, ODB, Outkast or Henry Rollins). I think Dave and John are crap. There I said, lambast me over hot coals with heated iron. I just hope I never slow down to listening to middle of the road music.
  5. HIGH-larious. Brings back childhood memories of Star Wars and it's utter baddass-ness.
  6. 4 Life Seriously, I'm not a fan of any of the front runners. It's like picking the lesser of two evils. I'm going with the libretarian vote, as usual.
  7. Take a joke, dude. "I'm not hating..." meant I was being scarcastic.
  8. seriously, I don't look like anyone. Yall be the judge. I'm in the green (it was KA's Ski Bums and Snow Bunnies party). Furman, I'm not hating here, but who the hell goes to a Snow Bunnies party? The goal is to get the girls to take off more clothes, not bundle up. Bundling up is weak! Some turd in high school said I look like this guy... Here's my freshman year headshot from college... The only person I even remotely thought I looked like was the jerk from the movie "That Thing You Do." And I saw him in an iterview, and he was wearing glasses with no glass in them, which I fancied at the time (before that movie even came out, of course). I can't find any pictures, though, because I don't know the guy's name.
  9. It's stuff like this that makes one, actually a lot of people, come up to the realization that people have too much time on their hands.
  10. BENGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALS! Due to these men...
  11. Penn and Teller's Bullsh*t If you haven't seen this show or don't have Showtime (or is it Cinemax?) then you need to find a way to get your hands on these DVD's. They're great and some of the best darn debunking of myths I've seen.
  12. I wouldn't mind drafting for the Patriots.
  13. I saw this, it's B.S. Conan's show wasn't anymore inflammatory than his normal late night schtick. People need to get over this kind of crap and stop being so sensitive. "A Puppet dog made fun of me, NOOOOOOOOO!"
  14. Eddie was fired by The WWE two years ago because his charachter wasn't going anywhere, now look at him. He was fired for driving drunk. Not only did he get in trouble for driving drunk, but it was brought to life that he was addicted to pain killers (hence the addicted part of the storyline Eddie and Brock talked about). The dude had to go through some serious stuff to overcome his demons. And, he basically got screwed by Stone Cold when Stone Cold walked out, because, if you remember, Eddie was FUEDING with Stone Cold at the time. But, then he went on to win the I-C title and he and Rob Van Dam tore the house down on a few occasions with their I-C title matches. It's been a long road leading to this moment. If Kurt Angle ruins it by beating Eddie at Mania, the WWE is weak!
  15. Yes, you heard correct. The endeared term "dood" has gone corporate. So, Bigg Hugg and I are doing our pre-wrestling pay per view ritual of visiting Chipotle. If you don't have a Chipotle it's a burrito place that makes EXCELLENT, gigantic, gourmet burrito's (sort of). They're filled to the brim and good as hell. Try one. Only $ 5.60. So, we're standing in line, when suddenly he pokes me and goes, "Look!" There it is, emblazoned on a board. Something like, "It's the food, dood!" or, "It's in the food, dood!" You know, something that screams consumerism at its best. So, whoever came up with dood on this board sure missed out on capitalizing on its sales value and possibly trademarking it (hey if Michael Buffer can trademark "Let's Get Ready to Rumble" why not "dood"?). Also, interesting to note... McDonald's owns Chipotle. It doesn't taste like it, but they do (Chipotle rules vs. McDonald's sucks). So, basically, what I'm saying here is that the genius (arguably, because I'm being scarcastic here) that came up with "BAH-DAH-BAH-BAH-BAH!" and, "i'm lovin' it" came up with, or is infringing upon, "dood." So, if you have a Chipotle, check it out. Who knows, dood might be there to greet you.
  16. I got to a college who's theory is... Go to school all week! Only have days off on Friday, when pretty much everybody has classes off anyways. So, we have Friday off for President's day. How nice of them. Bastards. And it's almost two hours later and I still can't believe Eddie won. WOW. Also, Goldberg DID spear Brock during his match with Eddie. It allowed Eddie to try and hit Brock with the belt. Awesome show. As for Nidia/Noble, it was your standard blind fold match. Noble walking around blindly while Nidia goofed on him (pretending to slap his ass, etc.). But, eventually he lifted up the blind, got his bearings and hit her with a devastating move (putting the blindfold back on before the ref could notice). And it was over.
  17. I just want to know at what point Metl Gear Solid was eliminated. I'm all for old school, but this is ridiculous!
  18. I posed something similar to this a month ago. My stance hasn't changed much since. Bond series since the 70's= :thumbdown
  19. The Bond series is dying a slow and painful death. None of the movies in the last twenty years even resemble what James Bond is originally about. Remember when James Bond movies were about spying and not just about car chases and action sequences? The new Bond movies are made for a target audience of video game players with short attention spans. Too much is spent on things like blowing stuff up and making these elaborate sets and not enough on plot. My favorite Bond movies would have to be the first three (Dr. No, From Russia With Love, and Goldfinger) as well as "On Her Majesty's Secret Service", all plot driven, all containing actual spying. I remember the scene in Dr. No where Bond is going around his room, he's getting ready to go out. So he plucks a hair from his head and places it on his closet door, then he takes out some powder and lightly spreads it on his briefcase. He then steps out. He comes back later and the hair is gone from the closet; someone's been searching his room! He then pulls out his briefcase and see's the fingerprints in the dust. That was badass. And it required some thought and setup. In a newer picture Bond would have just sat in the closet and killed the guys who busted into his room. Plus I think the fact that the last classic Bond villain was Jaws, says something. I can't name any of the villains from any of the movies back until Jaws (and Jaws was in two stinkers as far as I'm concerned). Jaws, Goldfinger, Dr. No, Ernst Blowfeld, Number 2, Scaramenga (also known as the Man with the Golden Gun). These are all classic villains. I was kind of hoping the Bond series would die a slow death... It's not even faithful to the books anymore...
  20. The best part is the fact that this kid comes on here complaining about this, what about everytime I get online and am getting an new personal message telling me to go to hell? This kid is just emberassing himself with this behavior.
  21. Hulk Hogan's head is bigger during the first two Mania's (his supposed pre-steroid stage). At Mania' three his body's smaller and more cut. His muscles are bigger, but not his cheeks. I'd post pictures I just don't want to have to waste my time by doing research for a message board topic (and I looked for a total of five minutes for an old school Hogan pic pre-Mania and gave up after the first three pages on google) using circumstantial pictures. I do applaud anyone debunking these steroid myths in here, though.
  22. Gimmick infringement. Also, Soriano, please stop sending me threatening Personal Messages, thanks.
  23. Pacino it is. I'll have Pesci in my corner. (Joe Pesci walks up, points to Sorianofan) "Everything he just said is bulls***. Thank you." (I figure I'd better end this argument now, because if I felt like arguing vehemently and doing research for a board discussion, I would. But, I don't, so I won't.)
  24. Numbers do lie. I honestly just don't believe that after the "awesome, yay" Saddham capture (what happened to THAT guy, anyways?), that Bush is so suddenly in the doghouse. Plus, it depends on the kind of poll it was. Polls can be VERY deceptive depending on who they poll.
