At the very least, how about having a set up so that we don't have to log out of FB Connect and log back into our Vgum accounts every time we come to the site?
I think the best possible ending would have been if Noomi Rapace had reached the "lifeboat" and peered into the "operating" room and seen that her aborted alien fetus had grown into an xenomorph (Alien) and the movie just cut to black right there. The whole thing with her lying on the ground screaming and then carrying David's head around for the rest of the movie was kind of ridiculous and unnecessary.
Plus, aren't xenomorphs born out of humans? Why did it have to explode out of the Engineer? I would understand if humans and Engineers didn't have the exact same DNA, but they do, so why would Noomi "produce" a giant face hugger and the Engineer produce a xenomorph? And why didn't the scientist with the glasses who got facehugged early on produce a xenomorph? Or did he and that's how their species propagates and survives?
If Engineers and humans have the same DNA, why do we look so different? Blergh.
The story and picture combination in this post is creating a whole lot of cognitive dissonance in my brain here. On one hand, GROSS, and on the other, THE OPPOSITE OF GROSS.
As far as Pusher is concerned:
1) English
2) Drugs
3) A debt that must be paid
4) Foreign mobster
5) Cute girl with short blonde hair in her underwear
6) Guns
7) Cars
8) This song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S94Kb4MVxj8 (remixed however) in the trailer?
Yeah, I'll see it.
But I think the Kaoss pad is innovative, which is definitely something to his credit. Much like Tom Morello doesn't have any specific traditional guitar playing which is innovative, he has the record scratch thing along with his use of the Whammy pedal, etc which elevate him to the status he deserves (because that is truly innovative).
I can definitely agree that Muse's music has gone way downhill and their lyrics are terrible, etc etc, but you can't deny that Matt Bellamy is a great (and somewhat innovative) guitar player who for that skill, often doesn't get the credit he deserves.
Uh it's kind of unbelievable that Stevie Ray Vaughan isn't on this list. Also, I definitely think for a Rolling Stone list Jeff Beck and David Gilmour should be seriously considered.
But I think Nels Cline, Mike McCready, Matt Bellamy, Johnny Greenwood, and Mark Knopfler are all constantly underrated.
The fact that Pitchfork used a picture of me in the front row going crazy at Titus at Glasslands for their coverage kinda demonstrates my enjoyment of the show. It was the fifth time I've seen them and it continuously gets better and better. Here's to hoping that trend continues, even without Amy.
