  1. This was the best movie of the three. It still has its flaws, but at least it was enjoyable. It was a bit lighter (visualy), more hopefull, Bane was a better vilain than the others (I liked how he was much more physique than the others), and you had the idea that there was something at stake. The Cottilard role was a bit small, cat woman lacked sex and I didn't like the twist. Other than that I had a good time. 7.5/10

  2. I'd go for Blue Velvet, easily his best movie. Another movie worth watching, if you like that Lynch atmosphere, is "My son, my son, what have ye done?", it's Herzog's last movie (although 1,5 years old). It can't be a coincidence that Lynch was one of the executive producers of it. :)

  3. Say that again once you've tried naming your own album. It's probably just a name that stuck, that's usually what my track names are.

     

    That's not my problem. I'm not makin' records. But if I would, I wouldn't be offending the population with this semi-deep [cabbage].

  4. The music has developed throughout the years. But I understand what you mean. They always have this feeling of boredom and non-interest (is there a better word for this in English?) that creeps up in their music. It's been a while since I last played Radiohead (before hearing this Lotus Flower), so I kind of forgot about them. But yea, why should you listen to Radiohead? They are either angry, angsty or just plain down. Always wearing a heavy heart up their sleeve. If it isn't with a guitar it's with some crappy electronics.

     

    I say we should all start dissing Radiohead!

  5. What's a Radiohead?

     

    It's a Talking Heads song.

     

    For some reason I can't be bothered to listen to it now. And I don't know why, I really liked In Rainbows. Just can't be bothered. I'll guess I'll hear it when the pshysical thing hits the store. I don't like this early online bull. Also, I don't realy like the title. The King of Limbs? Come on, what's up with that? Why would I want to listen to a record with a title like that.

     

    Edit:

     

    Decided to pause my record player and looked a few minutes at the Lotus Flower clip. Horrible. Now Yorke doesn't only sounds like a whino, he also looks like one. The track breathes boredom, and the clip is ugly. Why would you want to show yourself to the world like that? Is this a joke? I guess I just want to dislike it at this point. After seeing this clip I even wonder why I would like Radiohead at all? There's nothing to laugh at. Pop-music taking itelf way to serious. I just don't care anymore. Maybe tomorrow!

     

    Edit 2:

     

    The name of the album possibly refers to an oak tree in Wiltshire's Savernake Forest, thought to be 1,000 years old.[5] The tree is a pollarded oak, referring to an ancient technique for harvesting timber for fencing and firewood. Though it does not feature on maps, the tree is said to be 3 miles (4.8 km) from Tottenham Court House, where Radiohead recorded part of their previous album In Rainbows.

     

     

    ooh, 'interesting'. :')

  6. I hate to ruin the parade in this thread, but can someone explain to me how this is different to every other rap album? Sounds pretty normal to me.

     

    How can you say that? It's not your ears or something, I hope? It's the first genre-transcending masterpiece since what? OK Computer? It's a landmark record bringing together a lot of different people. He basically inventend (if not: perfected) a sub-genre: symphonic hip-hop (you know, like Yes, but then with hip-hop). That's something special these days.

  7. Swans - My Father Will Guide Me Up a Rope to the Sky

    Broken Bells - Broken Bells

    Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

    Grinderman - Grinderman II

    Mycale - Mycale: Book of Angels, Vol. 13

    Bonnie 'Prince' Billy & The Cairo Gang - The Wonder Show of the World

    Arcade Fire - the Suburbs

    Joanna Newsom - Hvae One on Me

    Beach House - Teen Dream

    The National - High Violet

     

    Kanye West, Broken Bells, Mycale and Beach House being the absolute best records.

     

    And other than a couple of John Zorn releases, the Sufjan Stevens record, and a couple of other usual suspects. I really haven't heard much that I thought was really great this year. For some reason I'm not so enthousiastic, I even had to use some websites to refresh my memory of what was released this year, I had forgotten most.
