the soft focus certainly helps as well. -
that's fine. but then to argue about it in such a belligerent and petulant manner is another thing.

i was watching the sky sports build up to the CL Final, and they were rating Drogba and Ronaldo out of 10 in their respective talents. andy gray have Ronaldo a 10 for free kicks. i mean what the fuck. his conversation rate is so bad. probably about 1/10 he scores. i'd expect a conversation rate of 1/3 (like Pernambucano a few years back) to get rate a 10. what a fucking farce.

god marilyn monroe in that film. :) unreal. to be honest. i doubt whether she was actually ever alive she's so beautiful. -
explain how Crazy Frog got to No. 1 ahead of Coldplay then. Crazy Frog must be better as it sold more records. right? taste has nothing to do with relativism. i'm sure everyone here is completely sincere with their tastes because it's easy to be found out if your not. popularity has never, ever, ever been a barometer for the value or virtue of an artistic medium - in fact - through the history of 20th Century art - the greatest artists, in their respective mediums (Tarkovsky / Bresson / Chaplin in Cinema, Dahli / Bacon in Art etc.) are the ones who have commercially unsuccessful because their philosophies regarding their approach to creation is so ahead of it's time that their work doesn't fit within the aesthetic criteria of their epoch. how you can argue Kid Rock has any value artistically, not COMMERCIALLY, is beyond me, and you've yet to do it. so go on. please.

he has a song called 'fuck off'. /end thread

tell me why. edit; a quick browse of his lyrics - A shimmy shimmy cocoa cocoa pu- pu - fuckin puffs bitch It's the K-K-Kid Rock with the K-K-Kid Rock shit I'm on top bitch and rock for tricks tell me how lyrics like this are of virtue and not narcissistic. jesus you just have to look at him to know he's narcissistic.

enough people have done that already.

seriously this thread is an utter train wreck. and big thompers is one of the worst boarders i've ever seen on any messageboard ever. his evocation of relativism only serves to hide how petulant, unformed and straight out bad his opinions are. it makes me kind of sad to think that people think listening to Kid Rock is justifiable when his work is clearly trite, soul less, market conscious, obviously narcissistic and lacking any sort of artistic virtue whatsoever. and this is precisely the reason why no one, of note, gives a shit about him anymore.

big thompers. your pathetic attempts to argue through the shallow avenues of relativism make me feel physically ill.

I was lucky enough to see City Lights [Charles Chaplin - 1931] at All Tommorows Parties over the weekend. completely wonderful. and I just watched Grave Of The Fireflies [isao Takahata - 1988], which is probably the strongest animation film i've seen but a little sentimental at times for me. still extremely powerful though. -
yes but balotelli is completely different in terms of his total playing style. martins was all pace back then. balotelli has a lot lot more.
