  1. Ali. I think I got confused between versions. At some point I liked this movie enough to buy it, but having rewatched it I'm not sure why. It was OK, but pretty much a mess, chopping and turning all over the place and leaving out lots of stuff. Will have to look for the one I wanted to see.
  2. Hi nightwolf. I don't know you but I just know we're going to be besties
  3. Saving Private Ryan Hadn't seen it since its release, so I'd forgotten most of the movie (aside from the general premise) Opening scene was longer than I remembered. It was called "the most realistic representation of what war was like" at the time of its release and that holds up now. Also made Hacksaw Ridge seem pretty over the top, as I suspected it would. Kind of expected some shots of the real people during teh credits, but I saw that I have a bonus disc so I'll check that out tomorrow and see if there's anything on that. Still a great movie though.
  4. Not only would my business suffer if I did this, I'd feel terrible and as if I was taking advantage of people. Never used this site that's closing down though.
  5. Yeah, haven't heard a song I'd want to skip yet, and I'm up to track 9 I think Steve had unTedded Ted's voice. He's lost a lot of his particular twang. It's a safe production, which you'd expect given the band members involved. What I found is that moving the Bass/Treble to neutral enhanced my listening experience - even leaning towards the treble at times, which is rare. Normally I am sett more on the bass side, but it made it a bit 'murky' for me
  6. Not refunding when ordered items are out of stock is just poor business, and while keeping the money at that moment seems like a good idea to generate future sales, in actual fact it can do the opposite as evidenced here.
  7. I have a fair collection Started with The Shawshank Redemption and Goodfellas and went from there If you're worried about the bald Matt, wait for the fake front tooth which is even more alloying, particularly at the end where the light illuminates it a completely different colour white. This movie smacks of one written for an award. Shave your head, put on some weight = oscar. Also, it is VERY LOOSELY based on a true story. After the movie I looked it up and while there were parts that were fairly accurate, most of it has been written.
  8. Watched Gold Was hoping for something like The Wolf Of Wall Street, which it isn't. Not bad, with some nice twists. Wouldn't buy it though.
  9. One of their best... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_f6D5qP9WAc
  10. Not a bad song but I kept on waiting for a chorus. I initially thought the chorus was a pre chorus, but then nothing happened and it went back to verse.
  11. I like this (from Sleaze Roxx) "the album proves to be a collective band effort rather than a platform to hone Poley’s vocals" I also like that it is 11 tracks. 11 is ideal for me 12 is ok 10 is ok if they are all pretty good, otherwise it's a bit short.
  12. Tonight was John Fucking Wick night One of my favorite movies, and I never tire of viewing it. You know it's good when Honest Trailers opens their review by acknowledging it's a good flick.
  13. So I saw Hacksaw Ridge. Pretty decent movie. Reminded me of Saving Private Ryan as in that movie was described as having the most realistic war 'footage' ever shot. I though that while HR pretty much cloned this vibe, it probably went a little too far and over the top. Amazing story, glad I saw it.
  14. Holy shit, I swear I thought it was a female singer until I got to the clip above. Very ambiguous voice. Not really my cup of tea, but not bad.
  15. Yep, it's a fad. My daughter bought a record player because a band gave her some vinyl. this will last a few plays. Music will soon only be available as downloads. I really should get motivated and rip and then sell off my massive CD collection. Some of my shit would be worth a few $$$ I'd say.
  16. Here's a song I never really was able to get in to. It was always OK, but I never understood the general love for it For some reason after the concert the other night I was finally sold... Weird because it's not through lack of hearing the song that I didn't dig it. Must be a slight change to musical tastes of something https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVYDnQwi3OQ
  17. I'm the same. Not because of the cost, but more the experience. Look at the image below for GNR. You're at the back,150 to 200 meters away from the stage, and the band are dots, so all you do is watch the big tv's And you're paying over $100 for the privilege I much prefer a small venue show, or even a larger 10,000 person venue where you get to see what's going on and be involved rather than be a spectator. Unfortunately, GNR don't leave any other option.
  18. I'm assuming it's somewhere between the first 2 and American Blitzkreig. And I'm thinking that I will really like a few songs and there will be filler.
  19. Happy birthday. Forget Issa, here's your birthday song. (skip to 2:00 for the good bits) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHBxJCq99jA
  20. Ended up not seeing Gold because it's either already had its run or the few sessions I saw were early release sessions. So instead I saw Passengers. Preview made this movie look different to how it actually was. My wife said it was ok, and it was a bit more of a chick flick, so I'd say see it if you have an afternoon to waste and need something to do.
  21. Everyone was going on about how killer Axl was live. I always thought he was an OK singer, kinda like Vince Neil. Suits the songs and holds his notes when he wants to. Clearly he has been making music well within his range and it's all held up well for him over time. One thing they didn't really do was interact with the crowd much. A few "how are you all" comments but not much more. Did a bit of sing along during Knockin' On Heaven's Door, but didn't play the crowd, just put his hands up a few times for the crowd to sing. This was a big miss in front of 70,000 people who would have sounded great if he'd got them going. There also seemed to be a newly created Slash intro to most songs, which got a bit boring. Almost like they were trying to fill the 2 1/2 hours a bit. Small things to complain about for a great show though.
  22. What I was saying earlier in this thread. And I wasn't bagging them, if there's a market, great. Go for it. Make some money. There will come a time when many others follow me and become disinterested and not bother too much. If they drop the smut, they will at least get a couple more albums out and maybe turn the tide a bit. This will happen at some point, and it probably isn't yet, but hopefully they don't leave it too late...
