  1. Howl was one of the very few movies ever to put me to sleep.

    Diff'rent strokes for different folks and all that. The movie was quite niche, and I can see those in that niche disliking it as well. The cast, especially Franco, Hamm, and Jeff Daniels kept me interested though.

    Funnily enough, I missed the last 5-10 minutes due to falling asleep. More lack of sleep than lack of interest, though.

    On a sidenote, watching A Clockwork Orange now and likely Full Metal Jacket tomorrow. I'm on such a Kubrick kick right now.

  2. I finally got around to watching Howl on Netflix Instant. James Franco was brilliant, as expected. It was a great take on Mr. Ginsberg's poem, which is definitely one of my favorites of all time. Admittedly, the animation parts were a bit odd, but the court scenes with Jon Hamm were awesome, as was the Ginsberg "interview," which was basically Franco chain-smoking and recounting his tale of the late '50s. All in all it was pretty good, better than I thought it would be going in. I expected it to be a little too "art house-y" for my tastes, but I didn't come away with that impression at all.

    Overall, I'd give it a 3.9 out of 5, if not just for the awesome performances by the whole cast. I'd recommend it to anyone with an appreciation of literature, namely The Beat Generation.

  3. Oh gosh, this will be hard.

    3. Zooey Deschanel - After 500 Days of Summer, this has become a bit of an obsession for me. pervert.gif

    4. Scarlett Johansson - Well, just look at her.

    5. Kim Kardashian - Because ass.

    6. Velvet Sky - Yes, a wrestler. One of the reasons I tune into iMPACT remains as this lovely lady's entrance.

    7. Katy Perry - w00t.gif

    8. AJ Lee - Anyone watching WWE television since she's debuted who hasn't had fantasies of this woman is lying.

    9. Jessica Simpson - Fuck it, she's still gorgeous after the baby damnit!

    10. Britney Spears - Same as Simpson, except after the crazy.

    Two wrestlers. Whatever.

    Not exactly a who's who of golden vocal chords, but fuck it.

  5. the best danananananananananananana song was actually this one from the second CD:

    the rest is just okay but I love that song. Much better live though...again.

    Meh, I have to disagree with you there. My personal favorite is E Numbers:

    Black Wax is a good song as well, although their most commercially successful one, if that hinders the fact at all. I've never had the chance to see them live though, so I can't argue with you there.

  6. They disbanded last year, but anyone ever heard of Dananananaykroyd? Great band, I know they had a song in one of the FIFA games but I've never come across any fans of theirs.
