controversial movie/book/non-metal music opinions thread

[Ross]

Micheal Mcdonald is an incredible musician

I can't recall anyone here mentioning them in a positive context, so this might be controversial, but I think Muse is a fucking awesome band.

totally agree.there last album was so good.

 

[Perdition's Light]

The Doors were quite good, musically speaking, but Jim Morrison is a terrible lyricist/poet and I can't stand his pompous, pseudo-intellectual persona.

 

[The Ozzman]

Don't you love her madly

 

[Vegard Pompey]

Origin of Symmetry is their best.

 

[MURAI]

school life is the best anime genre.

best hentai genre*

I am liking this progression.

 

[mutantllama]

I prefer tentacle rape myself

 

[Zephyrus]

That ruins it for me.

 

[mutantllama]

I honestly don't even watch or like hentai. I just remember when I was younger, I came upon some, and it happened to be tentacle rape.

 

[rms]

italian horror is the best

Hopefully you weren't 5 years old.

SO ANYWAY

i think 'superman returns' is great and one of the most audacious films ever spawned. there's just nothing else out there that approaches a pop culture icon with such sadness and maturity, such grandiose overarching thematic exploration. i could not give a flying fuck if it's slow going and i don't agree that it's more of an essay than a movie, it speaks primarily through its images which are breathtaking and exquisitely nuanced. yes it's pomo as fuck but it does NOT sacrifice its emotional wallop, it's just that as a superman film it tends to be approached with a rather blinkered mindset and it couldn't be further from meeting expectations. even if it doesn't always work it's so insanely ambitious that i can't help admiring it, i don't get why stuff like 'the assassination of jesse james' gets all the love but 'superman returns' gets blasted.

btw i've decided i hate people who think 'there will be blood' is a better film than 'no country for old men'.

Forrest Gump is awesome

.

 

[no country for old wainds]

it's like the least metal film ever, all of you should fuck off over to some middlebrow christian rock board or something

 

[Zephyrus]

My opinion is that this thread has become redundant since you're all talking about movies.

 

[no country for old wainds]

my opinion is that you should fuck off to the autism online boards and stop clogging up this one with your especially serious and pretentious brand of faggotry

 

[Vimana]

My opinion is that you should get the sand out of your vagina.

Forrest Gump is up there with V for Vendetta in the mindless, half-baked, who-cares-if-it-makes-sense-or-not-as-long-as-it-looks-flashy childrens movies department.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Forrest Gump was...flashy?!
