ah...just that time to be popping in again for a Music Thread posting... a little late, but: i sincerely wish you all the best of luck for this year. the Broken Family Band - It's All Over why havent i heard this before? its excellent. so excellent.

nice! and i miss you not in a Slint way but i miss you Allman Bros - Jessica

Clutch - Tight Like That good christ i love them.

ah, figures. it was up for the entire day yesterday, so that was bound to happen. i won't link to a new vid, but there are other videos of it on youtube, so feel free to search.

New Watchmen trailer that song is the best part. it's so fitting for Watchmen that it's a wonder it wasn't specifically written for the movie.

Usual Suspects. really wish i could harness the power of a brainwashing-type mechanism to wipe my memory of that movie clean. i just want to watch it for the first time again. still good. i also purchased, and will be watching There Will Be Blood for the second (and definitely not the last) time when i can. Danny Day-Lewis just slays that film.

...the truth comes out. but yea, more than a few of my buddies got too obnoxious from that 6-0 dealio, so i'm not too bummed on the lose to Washington, aside from the fact...it's Washington. Fedorov looked good, tho. i still think Roberto is holding up relatively well since getting his shiny new title. perhaps not as well as i'd like, but hey...he's a trooper.

Broken Family Band - Coping With Fear we cope with our fear our anger our pain by holding them in and by letting them out

It's at #3. #303 is more like it, even thats generous I would just like to refer everyone to my post here http://forums.obsidian.net/index.php?showt...9860&st=308 I was saying TDK was overrated when it was still unpopular to do so. And you are just as wrong back then as everyone else is now aye. can someone give me a real problem with the film? as in, a critique that doesn't involve "waaaaah batman was sad at at the end"? also, watched 21. pretty bad. i mean...Kevin, man, come on; the entire time, i just couldn't get into it, as was just so depressed for the man. plus, predictable romance plots, with weird progression is a no-no in my book. but, i suppose, when all's said and done...it was worth a watch, and provided decent entertainment. just...never again.

nice. Modest Mouse - Trucker's Atlas i saw them live a while back, with the National and R.E.M., and that song definitely blew more than a few minds in the crowd.

dude....what? i also saw Tropic Thunder recently. as said, it was very fun. i'm always hesitant when Ben Stiller is involved, but Downey Jr. was enough to intrigue me, and JB sealed the deal. the sountrack was sweet, the cursing and gore were in excess, and it had Nick Nolte. what's not to like?

due to multiple engagements i could only go to the nearby bookstore as opposed to a full blown comic dungeon. meager selections; i only got Batman's Long Halloween and Dark Victory. still, i'll try to get some more when i have some time.

sweetness. thanks dudes; dudettes. i'm going comic shop spelunking on the morrow, so i'll share my finds with you then. keep the suggestions rolling, if any more come to mind. because of recently-found monies, my leather wallet's so fat it's practically a cow again.

hey people... so, aside from the first few Ultimate Spideys, i never really bought/read a comic; never felt the desire or had a reason. i was in Victoria visiting relatives recently, and as i wandered into a CD store with a pathetic repetoire, i noticed the comics shop next door. as a lark, i thought i'd enter. after browsing around, looking very unawares of the whole procedure, and eavesdropping on the banter of the clerks to their customers, i recalled having seen the Watchmen trailer a while back, and decided that since i had cash to burn, i may as well invest in the actual book before i saw the film. and, as you can expect with anyone who reads Watchmen for the first time, i was pretty goddamn blown away. i won't go super ballistic school girl on my adoration of the thing, but rest assured it's probably the best novel i've read in years. so! after reading, and gettin all stoked on the film, i realized that well, i want more effin comics. any. more by Moore (tee-hee), classics, new ones, just good graphics novels. and then i realized, oh hey, Obsidian, those guys know a thing or two about a good read, and voila. so yeah. does anyone have any suggestions for an aspiring mega-geek (i've already attained relative geekage within the realms of tv, cinema, and video games; this would simply confirm it) ?
