Madonna Britney Spears Poster - Infamous Kiss
I got drunk and left this poster at a metal bar. I think the patron who found it is quite happy with his find.
Foster the People - Foster the People - EP
"Pumped Up Kicks" is kind of like their version of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros' "Home" in that they probably won't ever have a song that is even half as good.

SemtexGirl I love that venue. It's so elegant.
girlfriday Amazing venue. So excited! :)
gkruis Which album do you like best from them?
SemtexGirl It's all about Writer's Block. Fucking seminal.
chrismolnar they're not very happy these days. but writer's block is still very good.
Scream 3
Definitely the most under appreciated installment--before Scream 4 came out. Though it is a little bit on the ridiculous side so I can see why it wasn't that well-reviewed. Still, Parker Posey, as usual, is the highlight.
· $2.99 movie from iTunes
gkruis I've only seen the first one, but I loved it. It'd be fun to revisit that era with a pop horror marathon.
girlfriday PARKERY POSEY is incredible. The scene where she jumps into Patrick Warburton's arms... hilarious.
Bored to Death - Stockholm Syndrome

chrismolnar @gkruis as long as it takes to become friends, and absolutely.
gkruis @fnoo I just read the wiki on that. Horrible. @chrismolnar good to know. I've timed how much time I've spent with you, and now I know exactly how long it takes to make someone my friend. The question is, do others have a higher threshold than some? Can you Stockholm Syndrome people into being friends with you over the internet?
fnoo Well, most of the best programmers in the world are Scandinavian. If anyone can rewrite your mind with a computer, it would be them.
SemtexGirl @chrismolnar You should definitely coin this philosophy on friendship and the similarities of Stockholm Syndrome in your own personal tome.
gkruis Munchausen syndrome by proxy is when you're trapped in a movie Terry Gilliam was supposed to direct;
chrismolnar @semtexgirl my tome is full of reconstituted rants like that....

chrismolnar morrissey is so melodramatic....
SemtexGirl Melodramatic, prophet for the ages. Call it what you will.
Adam & Steve
This movie has such a promising beginning: A fat Parker Posey, Animotion being played at Danceteria, The Cure references...but then, it turns extremely gross when Steve is shown having a diarrheaic explosion from laxative-laced cocaine. And no, it's not as humorous as it might sound.

gkruis that sounds real gross.
girlfriday Is it a fat suit? Or did she actually gain weight?!!!!
girlfriday She's usually dangerously thin!
SemtexGirl @girlfriday It was a fat suit. I don't think she's that "dedicated to her craft."
girlfriday Hahaha. Thanks for the info.
gkruis Sometimes I feel like fatsuits are just a slide down the continuum from black-face.
Torn Apart: The Life of Ian Curtis by Mick Middles
Did you know Ian didn't actually fuck Annik Honoré? The media (read: Control) tries to make everything appear so much more scandalous than it actually is.
· $10.48 book from Amazon
riddlefish Hm, who's Ian Curtis? Are we talking fiction or nonfiction?
chrismolnar he's the lead singer of Joy Division, a great band from the late seventies.
fnoo @SemtexGirl Still a good flick, though. And a thing doesn't have to be factual to be true. Rather like The Social Network.
SemtexGirl Or like Marie Antoinette, and The Runaways, and 24 Hour Party People, and Cleopatra, and Nowhere Boy, and Factory Girl.
impulsebuyer So misunderstood, but what's the world without enigma?
fnoo The Third Reich?

(Alan Turing joke.)

Natalie Wood acts like a real cunt to James Dean in this movie. And he likes it.

chrismolnar dean is riveting in this. the homoerotic undertones are revolutionary, too...
gkruis that planetarium scene: so good.

If Lucy Fell
I always seem to go long periods of time without watching this movie, hoping that the next time I revisit it I will somehow actually think it's good. But no, turns out, Sarah Jessica Parker is at her best when she stars in TV shows (Square Pegs included).

Edie: American Girl by George Plimpton
As fellow Warhol superstar Jane Holzer once said of Edie, "Her looks, her expressions, I think, were her sense of humor." The uncertainty of this quote, even from a person who knew her well, is indicative of a greater motif in that, while so much of Edie's history is covered in this book, the ambivalence about who she really was remains at the forefront of her life's story. And that, as we all know, was the greatest tragedy of the Edie Sedgwick tale--never being truly understood by anyone. Warhol said it best when he asserted, "She had a poignantly vacant, vulnerable quality that made her a reflection of everybody's private fantasies. She could be anything you wanted her to be—a little girl, a woman, intelligent, dumb, rich, poor—anything. She was a wonderful, beautiful blank. The mystique to end all mystiques."

MizzBlaze Have you seen Factory Girl? That was a pretty interesting movie about her
SemtexGirl @MizzBlaze Yes! I love it. I think Guy Pearce and Sienna Miller look and sound like fucking replicas of Andy and Edie. Too bad they couldn't just come out and say that Hayden Christensen's character was Bob Dylan.
girlfriday HAHA! Hayden as Bob.
amyuhrich I saw and enjoyed Factory Girl but heard the story was largely inaccurate. Truth? I'm living in Pittsburgh so there's a lot of Warhol-mania here (er, and a lot of Sienna Miller animosity due to the local filming).
fnoo Golly, George Plimpton got around. I mostly remember him from Mouseterpiece Theater and those Intellivision ads. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYLly625cXE
Dirty Dancing
Why does this movie never get old? And why didn't Jennifer Grey become a more sought after leading lady once this came out? She was so perfect as the underdog, the girl that dudes don't typically take a second glance at until she proves herself enough for Patrick Swayze to say, "Nobody puts Baby in a corner."
· $0.99 movie from iTunes
MizzBlaze Probably because she completely changed her face
Mandakinnnns i concur.
Arcade Fire - The Suburbs
I don't know what it is with me waiting a million years to get albums that I know I should buy the day they come out. I really regret not listening to this sooner. "Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)" is, like, a crowning achievement in the Arcade Fire repertoire.

girlfriday YESSSSS!!!! SPRAWL II! And WE USED TO WAIT. Those were two of my (MANY) standouts. I think, though, I might like the album FUNERAL better overall. 16 is a lot of tracks for an album. A few I could have done without. But so much goodness here!
Machete
I remember when I first saw the trailer for this in between Planet Terror and Death Proof and thinking it could never possibly get made for real--but I'm so fucking glad it did. Robert Rodriguez somehow finds a way to make an amazing political statement by being completely over the top with sex, violence, and dialogue. Robert De Niro is also an overt caricature of a George W. Bush type politician, even going so far as to say, "I'm gonna smoke 'em out." Other surprisingly impressive performances come from Jessica Alba and Lindsay Lohan (who should embrace her hot mess image more often for film roles).

riddlefish @MizzBlaze For real. That was a definite facepalm moment.
gkruis First, I didn't hear about the dissing of the screen writers, what happened?

Second, screenwriters don't have that much control.
girlfriday Yeah, wait, what's this Alba dissing writers story?!?!?
HoneyLub @riddlefish lol ive read that before. she's also not done anything since then lol
amyuhrich I somehow managed to catch this in theaters. I have no idea who talked me into it. And for some reason I didn't realize it was a double feature and skipped Death Proof (which I now have a waiting copy of). Machete was...really bizarre.
Broken Social Scene - Forgiveness Rock Record
I really think this is their best record, which can rarely be said about an artist's most recent work. And, while many Broken Social Scene enthusiasts are fondest of the You Forgot It In People album just based on "Anthems for a Seventeen Year Old Girl" alone (and also "I'm Still Your Fag"), with Forgiveness Rock Record, BSS proves that they're incapable of making a weak song. I find myself listening to the album the whole way through every time.
· $9.99 album from iTunes
chrismolnar Wow! I did not think much of this, compared to their other stuff. I'll have to give it another try.
gkruis I dug it, too, actually. But I can't beat the nostalgia of "You Forgot it in People."

SemtexGirl @ihatekate12 Yeah. That song is fucking amazing.
