Happy Face

Lee Clark?

The quality of headlines at the Sun has gone downhill.

Half a litre of JD, 20 Malboro lights and copious caffeine.

Cock.

Up to the artists to put a stop to it. Has anyone followed the example set by CSNY....

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7249575.stm Why can't the BBC construct paragraphs of more than one sentence?

Stalingrad Did the hand-held shaky camera thing and a multitude of lost limbs five years before Saving Private Ryan, but I still thought it was absolute horse shit. It didn't help that it was dubbed like. I think they only had one voice over artist though as none of the characters really became distinghuishable until an hour and a half in (has anyone ever seen a well dubbed live action film?). But even getting past that (which is VERY difficult) it just looks shit. Obviously a big budget that's all on screen in terms of portraying battle, but it lacks basic lighting continuity, a bloke shoots himself in the head and it's a full second before the blood hits the wall behind him, every low ranking soldier is against the war and sympathetic to the other side, all the top brass are your typical blood thirsty Nazis, soldiers just get up during gunfights and walk off. pap!

Ok. Vastly overrated though. I think its one of those movies which if you have been told by everyone is great then you'll be mildly disappointed. However, if you dont know anything then it will be good. So, vastly overrated then. i thought it was great, but i perhaps benefitted from the fact that I'd heard nothing about the film before hand so expected nothing. there we are then I think you'd have enjoyedit even if other people said it was good. Class film.

Dunno what's worse, the fact there's so many 'bored' threads, or that you were so bored you looked it up! I'm not bored any more. Found a chess site. http://www.chess.com/play/computer.html?th...amp;color=white Can't even beat the computer on easy like. Seriously, how impossible is this on easy? I reckon Kasparov would struggle.

I wouldn't be bored if I wasn't at work....and now, to make things worse, there's boobies I can't look at. That first pint is going to be sweet come half five.

Can't do any better than Johnny Depp - Donnie Brasco - Michael Madsen - Reservoir Dogs - Chris Penn - To Wong Foo Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar - Patrick Swayze. Tim Robbins & Adam Sandler?

She was in My Name Is Earl with Jason Lee, who was in Enemy of the State with Will Smith. Will Ferrell to Ellen Page?

How bored are people on here? http://www.toontastic.net/board/index.php?...ghlite=%2Bbored

You had a change of heart then?

Don't forget Dylan on Subterranean Homesick Blues.

On this subject, I just heard Jay Electronica for the first time... http://www.savefile.com/files/1358397 Fucking brilliant!

Champion. That's not to say Hip Hop's been shit though. Just that you've not been as much of a fan. Personally I can't stand Biggie or Tupac, having loved stuff that came before and after. Though, I'll admit I've never really given them the time of day in the first place.

Hello Nasty '98 Things Fall Apart '99 Labour Days '01 Run Come Save Me '01 Phrenology '02 Madvillainy '04 The Mouse and the Mask '05 Game Theory '06 Fishscale '06 I've got stacks and stacks of hip-hop post '97, but it pales in comparison to what was coming before it. I'm also probably saying this as well as my favourite era is the G-Funk era and that was also in and around the same time that era died. Although you do get the odd classic appearing from just after such as albums by the likes of Lil Half Dead and DJ Quik knocking out consistency after consistency but it just isn't as good as it used to be. And it's not just about looking deeper as you put it as I can guarantee you that's levels I am talking about. It's Ewerk saying you have to look deeper. I think it's all there on a plate. Rap is no different to any other genre where people wax lyrical about stuff more than a decade old because they're all dead/past it now. Depending on who you talk to rock music hasn't been bettered since The Beatles, Led Zepellin, The Clash, Oasis were in their prime. There's always good stuff going on and coming around the corner. In 10 years they'll be saying Rap's been shit since '06, like they were saying in '97 it's been shit since '88.

Bored by the fortnight off? Get yourself along and bolster the crowd. .com So what if the reserves are doing worse than the first team. Liverpool are top so it should be worth free entry.

Hello Nasty '98 Things Fall Apart '99 Labour Days '01 Run Come Save Me '01 Phrenology '02 Madvillainy '04 The Mouse and the Mask '05 Game Theory '06 Fishscale '06 Mostly There is plenty of good rap music out there, it's just about finding it. Like pretty much all genres really. Well I'd say more so with rap really as most of the decent stuff is based in America and rarely picked up by the media over here. You say that because you're into rap though. My point was that with nearly any genre, especially one that has crossed into the mainstream/pop world, you have to dig a bit deeper. I don't think rap is particularly unique in that regard. I'm not trying to say it's unique, what I'm saying is that decent rap isn't well catered for in Britain, of course there are other genres that share this problem and the fact that there is little decent homegrown rap music doesn't help. I suppose it's really the way in that the genre is nearly completed Americanised that is the problem (and again I'm not saying that rap is unique in this respect). Apart from Roots Manuva, Dizzee Rascal, Wiley, Sway, M.I.A, Scroobius Pip..........

I agree it's the same with all genres. But you don't even have to dig. It's not as if it's the 80's and everyone's thumbing through vinyl and asking the record shop owner what's good. EVERY genre has a multitude of podcasts you can subscribe to with a single click and hear the best and newest of.

I've never heard of anyone that didn't enjoy it.
