The 1980s by far. Although at the moment I'm getting back into the 70s and some 60s stuff, the 80s as a whole had everything. The bands that you listed, especially so. Late 70s through to mid-80s is a fantastic period.

I liked Aeon Flux It was nothing amazing, but it was a functional dystopia film.

Yeah, I like Kid Rock's country/southern rock style stuff. I wouldn't buy it, or really go out of my way to listen to it all that much, but it's not bad.

Tell that to Scott Stapp. >_>

I'd say I want to see Scott Stapp's cumface, but I've already seen the My Sacrifice video.

If they win this, then I've officially lost what little faith I still had in the "American Dream".

All I remember of Some Kind Of Monster is Lars Ulrich being a whiny little brat ("How come no one ever does anything for me?") and how he always sounds like he's got a mouth full of cheesecake. On a more serious note, though, Rubin revitalised the Chili Peppers (arguably), Johnny Cash, Neil Diamond, and countless others. It'll be interesting to see what he can do when he gets his hands on Metallica, simply because he's almost the antithesis of Bob Rock.

I still stand by the fact that the only way this album will ever be released is when Axl dies. I can't see him ever releasing it during his lifetime, to be honest.

Welcome to popular opinion, how's the weather?

I haven't rated Metallica for a long time, and I don't even consider some of their earlier work the "classics" they were hailed as, even their best albums are still fairly formulaic, if listenable, metal, but nothing amazing. I have to admit, though, I'm interested about this one. Rick Rubin as a producer could, hopefully, breath some new life in to them, and hopefully Rob Trujillo will be involved in the writing process in a big way, seeing as he's my favourite bassist not named Les Claypool or Jaco Pastorius, but that seems unlikely. If Lars gets his act together as well, this could turn out amazing. I won't hold my breath, but I'm intrigued as to how it will turn out.

Tito Ortiz and Billy Zane? It's going to be shite but, damn it, I'm there!

which is WHY i said it will be great... their production team is above average... kane has the potential to be horrific... and story sounds like a classic. Did I miss the memo saying that "classic" had been re-defined to mean "dull, formulaic horror"? This looks like it has nothing go for it, I doubt it'll even have the "so bad it's good" charm that redeems a lot of horror films of this type.

I now want this game just for those Henry and Chuck Norris CAWs, damn it!

YES! I've been looking for this for ages to show someone, the website I first found it on shut down years ago. It's hilarious.

Jumpman was renamed to Mario in a later version of Donkey Kong, though, not in Mario Bros.

I grew up with the drummer from Gorerotted, he used to live next door to my Gran, and he drummed in my brother's first band, and they were terrible. Anyway, funeral song...either "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" by Pink Floyd or "Whiter Shade Of Pale" by King Curtis, I think.

I haven't seen Scary Movie 3, simply because I heard it was worse than Scary Movie 2, and I felt like I had Cancer after watching that film. It's most probably the worst film I've ever seen, it's shite schoolyard gross-out humour, it's not how parody should be done at all. While this one sounds like it could possibly be better, I'll probably still end up giving it a miss.

I can't stand Dirty Sanchez, but it's still infinitely better than Jackass, largely due to the notable absence of Bam Margera, but just in general. I'll admit, I hate the moronic kind of entertainment that shows like DS and Jackass promote, but the episode where they were throwing cacti at each other was class.

Bad AIDS was Brass Eye, actually, the Sex episode. The Swimming Pool part is dull, the only good bit being "SOMEONE DIED". The Mighty Boosh is incredible, though. It's one of the most emminently quotable TV shows in quite some time, the radio show was excellent too.

I think The Distillers are terrible, I've never seen the appeal. The best female-fronted punk band out there is undoubtedly X-Ray Spex, The Horrorpops are worth a listen if you don't mind their psychobilly leanings, Bikini Kill are good, as are 7 Year Bitch, Le Tigre and Be Your Own PET.

I thought it was fucking terrible. I don't know how so many funny people can add together to create such an appalling result. It's formulaic, canned laughter-tastic shite sitcom, proving once again that the sitcom, or at least it's traditional form, is dead. How Chris Morris ever got involved with this, I'll never know. But even he is terrible in it. He's playing a character almost identical to the majority of characters he played in his earlier work, yet overacts everything to the point where it becomes even less funny. How anyone could turn one of the most important and funniest British comedians out there into a generic naff sitcom actor is beyond me. Not to mention that he looks like he's aged 20 years since he was last on television.

The radio edit of "November Rain" by Guns & Roses is the worst. It misses out all the rock.

I've only heard the version with the bolded lyrics. Maybe that's a video edit or a radio edit, though, as I've only heard it on local radio, and our local radio station rarely, if ever, bothers with playing radio edits.

The EPs are better, in my opinion, the album just doesn't sound that complete. They're not the saviours of music or anything, they're pretty much the same as every other band in Sheffield, to be honest. That said, Fake Tales Of San Francisco is a class tune.

I prefer Fozzy. Fact.
