  5. John Virgo * 10 http://www.spikedhumor.com/articles/27760/...rick_Shots.html
  6. Sublime album, and she's gorgeous too...
  7. Dominik Eulberg - Kreucht & Fleucht
  8. What did we miss? 134580[/snapback] Go here and search for 'morph'. Craig has a great argument, gets whopped and skulks back to where he came from. And it was all basically my fault. The broken link insinuated Craig was a cock
  9. Neil Young - Living With War Scathing. My fave is Let's impeach the President.
  10. Speaking of Jenny Lewis I fancy a bit of a moan. Will people stop buying the bland manafactured shit that's marketed as female singer songwriter soulful stuff. Tunstall, Jones, Melua and now this connie Billy Ray Cyrus bint. It all might as well be on Pop Idol and gets on my tits. There's been some brilliant albums by female artists this past year that kick the shit out of Terry Wogans flavour of the month. In addition to Jenny Lewis you've got Cat Power, Roseanne Cash, Neko Case and Vashti Bunyan to name a few. Support the true artists, rather than the pretty faces that front other peoples trite hallmark sentiments.
  11. Downloaded it on the back of that recommendation alone. 'sniiiiiice. 131967[/snapback] Everyone should, if only for the Travelling Wilburys cover.
  12. Have you seen Factotum? It's canny.
  13. Jenny Lewis With The Watson Twins - Rabbit Furcoat. Like a young Loretta Lynn.
  14. Comptine D'un Autre Ete - Yann Tiersen I wore the shit out of the CD when Amelie first came out, I think this song is possibly the most loveliest piece of piano ever. Inspired by it's abundent use on this years apprentice I've dug it out again.
  15. Did you hear Bob Dylan is presenting a radio show in the US? http://www.xmradio.com/bobdylan/index.jsp?refsrc=homepage_bb
  16. You'd have to shoot him with turnips or summat after being locked in a shed with various tick-a-tong-tings and vegetables.
  17. Sounds a lot like The 40 Year Old Virgin. mmmmmmmm Catherine Keener *off to check was she in FHM's list*
  18. You're right like. D.A.R.Y.L. was the best of the lot tbh.
  19. Nine Lives - 9 separate short stories about 9 women told in single takes that rarely relate to one another. Loved it. Don't bother if you like a good story and a twist at the end. Do though, if you like believable characters well acted and no answers provided.
  20. 80's - worst decade for film ever - exact FACT everyone backed you can't detract or you'll be attacked.
  21. touche. Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang was still good fun though.
  22. I thought it was crap tbh. i cant bide val kilmer since spartan. that film is a disgrace to its own title! 130230[/snapback] What a strange way to judge a film. Someone is in it who was once shit in something else. You could at least criticise it on it's own terms. PS - probably your light fingers missed an 'a' but 'bide' means wait.
  23. ...and with respect to that, take a look at this. You might be right about the Guardian, but The Times is well recognised for it's sport coverage. Though Giles Smith is an absoloute plank.
  24. I think the only difference is the media portrayal of the two. The Sun had little interest in Paul Kossoff. They do have in Pete Doherty. Is it because he's a better musician? Obviously not. It's because he shagged a famous model. I have nothing more against Doherty than any other crackheed, more pity than hatred. Anyone who works at The Sun should be shot though. 130039[/snapback] Basically, the media didn't bother people like Kossoff and Janis Joplin, because they didn't attract attention by being fuckwits and yobs. Doherty attracts attention because he's a fuckwit and a yob, not just because he was shagging Kate Moss. Load of celebs shag other celebs but don't attract that sort of publicity. As for the Sun, I take the view that each to their own with newspapers. If someone wants to fight their way through huge sized pages to read something, fair enough its up to them. I couldn't be arsed. I know plenty of intelligent and worldy wise people who are quite happy watching the news on TV every evening, and don't bother reading a newspaper, if they want to read something, they pick up a good book instead. This is what I like to do. Because in all newspapers, once you get past the basic news in whatever format its presented, the rest is just articles, and I for one don't give a rats arse about the theatre, fashion, check the thousands of stocks and share listings, or a profile on the history of stamp collecting. Basically, I don't feel the need to read the Guardian, or the Times, to portray myself as intelligent, do what you want. Looking down on people for being themselves does you no favours, in fact, quite the reverse. It just makes you look like a right nob. A journalist is a journalist too, they are just doing their jobs. However, so far as football goes, I think some of the journalists who write for the Times and the Guardian, most definitely don't have a clue about the game or what they are talking about. And if that photo of him injecting that girl turns out to be real and he gets 10 years, then that journalist from the Sun, "who should be shot" according to you, has done us all a favour IMO 130050[/snapback] Woah, way to misconstrue. I'm not saying Sun readers are thick. My Dad gets it for the racing page. Like you, I don't get a daily paper. I was using the Sun as an example as it's the most popular tabloid. I'll bet you famous people most definately were fuckwits in the past, but evidence of their fuckwitiness was harder to produce than it is now. The majority of the population have a camera on them 24 hours a day these days. Any indiscretion is likely to be captured. The Sun could have done us the favour equally as well if they'd sent the photo on to the police and not said a dickybird in the paper. Would they go round taking photos of nondescript smack rats shooting up then paste it all over the paper? The media coverage fuels his fire tbh. Take away the oxygen of publicity and he'll burn out soon enough.
