i don't want any of that bullshit ice cream...i want haagen dazs.
baghead was really fucking good.
this week not so much. i am probably in the minority here, but i hate the coen brothers. they are just kinda boring to me and frankly i have never been able to understand why they engender so much love from people. this new one looks like "no country for intolerable cruelty"... unfortunately the intolerable cruelty is probably directed toward the audience(most likely in the form of brad pitt's hammy as all hell performance) with malkovitch along for the ride and the always overwrought dialouge of the coen brothers, you can rest assured that this one will be a horriffic pork festival. i don't understand how these dudes continually get away with doing this terrible mix of thirties slapstick mixed with fifties gaeity with a crap dash of horse poo surrealism(generally when they work themselves into a corner) and critics still kiss their ass and can't manage to see through this bullshit for what it really is...sampling. seriously the critics that love this shit probably hate the newest kid rock song all summer long even though it does the same exact thing in its invention of a redneck rap over the piano of werewolves of london and the guitar of sweet home alabama. but then again that's the supreme hypocracy inherent in today's criticism. it's okay to steal so long as the theft occurs from approved areas. either way it's derivitave. and since i really only have time for one set of filmmaking brothers at a time (duplass) i will have to say that i like the kid rock song way better than any coen brothers movie i have ever watched. and that is sad as i already understand its novelty status.
fuck the coens. hacks.
seriously...burn before watching
and then watch this(something really awesome)
and if you thought that was as awesome as i do...

good times.

Buffalo Stance holds up really well. I think it's crazy that Neneh Cherry is a grandmother.
is she the grandmother of buck cherry? im sorry but it was just so easy it had to be done.
I love Neneh Cherry. I really do. Regular jukebox staple. She was the 1st person to feature Biggie Smalls EVER on the remix to "Buddy X." Much respect. ....BUT let me be the 1st to point out that "Buffalo Stance" is basically a cover AND a direct sample of a Malcolm Mclaren song. Where you trying to make a point about unimaginative rehashing or were you just being selective in the direction of bile?
But yeah "Burn After Reading" sucked balls. I liked JK Simmons and he's in the movie 5 minutes.
i wasn't providing any real commentary on buffalo stance(which rules...rip off or not) its just the first thing i thought of when i saw the other song in camp rock...which rocks.
