From books I've read, Dr. Hannibal Lecter is probably my favourite. Comics-wise, I like The Joker (despite the fact I was never a batman fan), Orochimaru from the manga Naruto, and The Infernomancer from Dominic Deegan. Also, Trudy Truehart from General Protection Fault and, pretty much my all-time favourite, Litchfield from Instant Classic. Yeah, I like webcomics. A lot. From movies, Stripe from Gremlins is just too much goddamn fun. I also like Major Toht from Indiana Jones and John Doe from Se7en. I also liked Peter Stormhare's devil character in Constantine, although that was pretty much all I liked about that movie. Same for Clown from Spawn. Clown was the only reason to see that movie. Games - The Horned Reaper from Dungeon Keeper, although technically he was on your side. Television - the TV show versions of Venom and Carnage. So... I guess most of those are pretty psychotic. Hmm.

The Foo Fighters - Baker Street It's neat how they do it with the guitar.
-
Huh. I saw this yesterday. I thought it was pretty cool. It reminded me of Time Bandits, which was my favourite movie as a kid.
-
Charlie Kaufman rocks. Also, Charlie Kaufman is ****ing popular among movie buffs. I like all of those.

That is so not fair. I love to sing but I have a terrible voice. *walks away dejectedly* Oh yeah, EElS' "It's A Mother****er" is a great love song if you don't mind the profanity. Also, the clich

Wait, there are people who don't like Groundhog Day?
-
You're joking, right? That movie was a complete mess. And predictable to boot.

As a non-smoker, I whole-heartedly agree with his stance on those self-righteous bastards who complain about people smoking. I have asthma AND bronchitis, and people smoking have never EVER bothered me. EVER.

I'm sorry, I thought we were talking about films you like that everyone else hates? Everyone I know sings praises to Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller now.
-
Blueberry. I can't even describe the terror of this pretentious, CGI-induced drug trip. NEVER SEE IT.
-
The sequel came out a while ago. I want to see it badly.
-
Last Action Hero is great. I love it. More: Dragonheart, Bandits, Jurassic Park III

Fight Club and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series. Fight Club made me realize how empty my life really was, and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series has made it utterly impossible for me to take life seriously.

It's already been established that it's german. And if you need more confirmation, in my school, german classes are mandatory and I'm positive that it's german.
-
German and dutch are ****ing ugly. I speak both (german only to an extent, though) and I despise them, despite the fact dutch is my mother tongue. And french is terrible too. No matter what's being said, it sounds like some crazy introducing themselves for Alcoholics Anonymous. My favourite languages are english and japanese, because it's just funny.

So... it would be funnier if... he would be doing... what he's doing? Well, color me confused then.

"I don't get it! It's not funny!" My dear people, I suggest you take a good look at that sentence and try to understand that it's not Kaftan who is at fault here.

Indie rock (Modest Mouse, Weezer's Blue Album and Pinkerton) and pop (EElS, The Shins), metal (Pre-Black Album Metallica, Iron Maiden), grunge (Pearl Jam, Soundgarden), and I'm getting into some of the newer modern hardrock (Audioslave, Alter Bridge). Before anyone asks, no, I do not like Nirvana, and I don't think they are grunge either. Listen to Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Mother Love Bone, Mudhoney or Temple of the Dog. These are the other popular grunge bands. Does Nirvana sound anything at all like them? I think Nirvana fits the 'punk' bill a lot more. Especially since most of their goods songs were ripped from good punk bands. Listen to The Pixies 'Debaser'. Sound familiar? Yeah, I think so too.

The music industry calls most post-grunge and hard rock 'metal'.

A common mistake is not realizing that dictionaries only give definitions or: what a word is used for and not what it means. A geek is just a circus performer who performs bizarre acts, whatever the dictionary might say. So please, take your dictionary and scram.

No they don't. I use voice inflection during presentations and all speech (especially poetry, which rap is) has rhythm. Rap is not music. I don't even have a clue where you get 'melody' from, because that would make, say, me quoting Doc Holliday from Tombstone, 'melody'. At the most it's a bad poetry presentation at open mike night down at Pete's Pub. Rap is not music. I never said it wasn't an artform if done right (I'm quite partial to the work of people like Saul Williams myself), but whoever says it's music needs to need a big smack in the face with the 'stop being such a goddamned tool' hammer. And most of the things you here at MTV aren't even poetry (therefore, not even rap, despite what they might want to tell you). The most heinous thing about rap is, though, the people who listen to it. Chavs and gangstas. The world would be a better place if their filthy, leeching scum was wiped from the face of the planet. And nobody would have to listen to Eminem talk about his **** again.

Dude, you completely misinterpreted everything I said. I never said singing was neccesary. If it was, I wouldn't be a rabid Mogwai fan. I just said talking isn't music, and talking over a drum machine and a sample does not equel music, no matter how you try to spin my words. It's not music, it's a poetry presentation with aural ambience, nothing more, nothing less. I still don't understand how anyone ever came up with the idea of classifying it as a genre. That people consider rap music doesn't change the fact that it isn't. I mean, there are still people out there who consider Hitler a good guy too. What people consider means diddley squat. If it were music, then street gangs would be considered as girly as The West Side Story. Because that's the kind of context in which gangs who use music goes.

Wait, you screw around over Green Day, but you like rap? I mean, Green Day is pretty bad, but rap isn't even music. Lyrics are not music. Especially if spoken, not sung.
-
No, Dookie was a totally incredible album. I really don't understand how they could have fallen so far. Also, how can Green Day and Busted be compared? It's not like Busted actually tries to write music. They're not serious. Green Day does try to write good music, they just keep ****ing it up.
