I THINK HE IS REALLY AWESOME AND YOU GUYS ARE JUST HATERS AND I DON'T MIND LETTING YOU KNOW IN THE SAME TYPEFACE AS HIS RIDICULOUS BLOG WHICH YOU HAVE TO READ. Oh. Oops.
More like they're touring to pay back their label for distribution. And that ain't happening now. Goodbye, rights to your own music; hello, record company GREAT SUCCESS! Man, indie music rocks.
Overhyped, true. Pitchforked and hung out to dry on a huge European tour, true. But hearing that a band you were never quite fond of loses it in the second-most laid-back country in the world: PRICELESS. Psychedelic Horseshit blow, but that was the greatest (and apparently now truest) interview ever.
Seriously, did anyone here go to this movie thinking it would be "good?" Aside from X-2 (which I really can't even tell you why I love it), all of the X-Men stuff has been pretty hokey and essentially made to make money. But dammit, this movie was pretty entertaining, being that I EXPECTED only cliches and pure action. And furthermore, I dare any comic geek to make sense of the 4 or so Wolverine backstories out there. Come on, do you really think that anyone could make a movie with all the mish-mash that is apparently Logan's life? Just Wiki it if you don't believe me: there are so many interpretations, depending upon the series that you read, that I can't believe they could even muster up a coherent story. And at least it was coherent, being that it certainly wasn't ground-breaking. I mean, this shit was based on Marvel comic books, literature that rarely has cared whether or not it was contiguous, made sense, or was even appealing beyond the full-page action shots. I love comics, though I'm no comic geek, and I loved seeing some dude jump 80 feet into the air off a motorcycle and tear through a helicopter with his adamantium claws. And Will.i.am is WAY WAY WAY better in this film than he was cutting it up with BEP on Ellen today. Jesus Christ, do they listen to the lyrics they're singing?
Where's all the sweet electro-dance? Did they sleep through the fact that no one gave a shit about fucking Hold Steady and Vampire Weekend, and instead lost it to GirlTalk and Chromeo? Or am I just sooooo last year?
