    Poltergeist SE

    I am so VERY tempted to see this on Thursday night on the big screen(finally!) since it'll be just over a 6 mile drive for me. A little back story; one of the things I distinctly remember about Poltergeist when it first came out in '82 was that my older sister, who had seen it in a theater...

    Whatever happened to classical music radio in SF bay area?

    Thank you. :) Just as you feel my pain here in L.A., I also feel Dennis' pain in San Francisco. Ladies and gentlemen it's a painfest! I tell you what, this may be a very ignorant opinion, but those cats on the east coast have it down. They still honor and respect classical music as the...

    I've never been one for Audis, but...

    Btw 2 things(in case you haven't seen pics of an R8); 1) that's the engine in the back under the glass. I was going to take a close-up of it but I didn't want to hold the guy up. 2) in the same pic of the back view, the panel that looks slightly off-color(the area that Kurt mentioned) near the...

    Hahaa I totally believe it. Why wouldn't the dealer of a brand new exotic car tell the potential customer that they've got the first one? That's gotta be one of the first lines of the pitch right? :laugh:

    Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan went to heaven.

    Ok seriously, enough with Peyton Manning already

    This reminds me of some Dave Chappelle skit in which that hip hop guys sells his company's tampons. Hi I'm Peyton Manning and I'd like sell you something that helps me in the end zone during those hard passes: Preperation H.

    THE R8'S BURRRNNN :cool: I bought this last weekend for $120k. Seriously though(slap me out of it), I saw this black beauty whilst walking around Westwood village today during lunch. As I was taking pics the nice owner(who looked vaguely familiar..) came out and told me it was the...

    So I take it that we won't be seeing Michael Vick in a DirecTv commercial pitching his new dog fighting channel. (bad joke sorry!)

    Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan went to heaven.

    What ever happened to that thread I started years ago about Lindsay Lohan? Boy she went downhill faster than a shopping cart full of bricks. =/

    MY father now has Type 2

    My good wishes of health and happiness to you and your father, Scott. :) Try not to think about the possibility of your father needing surgery or else it'll drive you crazy. Sometimes you can worry about something so intensely that it can blind you to some of the more obvious concerns.

    Ok seriously, enough with Peyton Manning already

    Sorry Mike, I concede. :) I don't want to make it sound like I'm busting veins over here over the commercials or that my opinions are the definitive way of thinking. I realize there's not an awful lot to talk about with this subject matter but I certainly don't want to stifle discussion by...

    Whatever happened to classical music radio in SF bay area?

    Ok granted(although you can't lose enough country music stations IMO) but if it was an economic decision why did they opt to go with country music? Is that where the money is? Keep in mind we're still talking about the L.A. market here. ;) You know what L.A. really needs IMO? And I...

    Ok seriously, enough with Peyton Manning already

    Uh no, that's not debatable IMO. He's like a big blank wall. :P The only thing I'd give to Manning is that he does invoke a sort of very old school football player from like the 30's, 40's, or 50's. He's got that look that isn't necessarily easy on the eyes but he does look like a vintage...

    Whatever happened to classical music radio in SF bay area?

    I'm still feeling the pain. I mean they replaced classical music with COUNTRY MUSIC. In Los Angeles. COUNTRY MUSIC. In Los Angeles. COUNTRY MUSIC. WTF??? I literally work across the street from the radio station too and every time I pass their building I want to spit on...

    Radiohead- Choose your own price.

    I totally agree and if anyone's got the balls to do it it's Radiohead. Kudos to them for trying interesting ways of getting their music to people. Thom probably would have gone this route for his Eraser album, actually didn't he do something like this? Maybe not, anyway. Bring it on boys!

    Ok seriously, enough with Peyton Manning already

    I do realize that sports figures selling products is as old as time itself, and there's definitely no envy or hate Dave Brown :P, but I guess I'm just seeing too many commercials with Manning lately. Not the same commercials either, different ones for different products. And another thing...

    The ultimate shaky cam appreciation thread!!!

    Indeed. I forgot about all the zooming coupled with the shaky cam. It's as if a retarded toddler was given the camera and went to town with it. No offense towards retarded toddlers btw. :) Ah I miss the days of Coppola and other fine directors that KNEW how to direct tense and exciting action...

    We need the Ultimate punk 3 pack (Urgh! Decline of the Stains)

    I watched Dance Craze last Friday with my gf and her sister and lemme tell ya, it was a BLAST! Nothing like watching something like this with girls that know the music on a Friday night, we all had mega fun. I knew a smidgen of it but I'm still discovering this stuff myself. I definitely...

    DVD Review HTF Review: Death Proof - Extended and Unrated

    Death Proof the stronger film by a country mile? Did we see the same Grindhouse in theaters? It's like BZZZZZZZZZZ- edited. =/ I think they released Death Proof first because it's a Tarantino movie and his name will sell DVD's. Also Planet Terror is a great Halloween movie so it seems right...

    Ok seriously, enough with Peyton Manning already

    Or who ever that big dork quarterback from the Colts is. He's in like 80% of commercials airing on TV in the U.S. selling everything from.. well whatever he's getting paid mega bucks to sell. Enough is enough! Get this big dork off my screen and stick him back on the field trying to toss...

    The R&R Hall Of Shame is at it again!!

    Chic? Are they serious? The R&RHOF is like the new artist Grammy, most likely never to be heard from again. If Chic is nominated I hope Donna Summer is there already.
