Brown Bunny (2003) Posting

I think there are two kinds of people in this world: those who think The Brown Bunny (2003) is a masterpiece, and a bunch of fucking idiots.

I just disregard anyone whose criticism of the film focusses on the blowjob scene. It's not even that erotic. It's sad, lonely, pathetic. Just like the whole film.

Gallo flayed himself open with this one and was booed at Cannes before the film was even halfway done.

Do yourself a favor and watch it if you haven't.

Best Album from the '78-82 Trilogy?

What do you think is the best album of Don's masterpiece '78-82 trilogy: Shiny Beat [Bat Chain Puller], Doc at the Radar Station, or Ice Cream for Crow?

For my money it's objectively Doc at the Radar Station. Band was its tightest and Don was on fire. And in interviews Don praised that album and Lick My Decals as his best.

But my personal favourite is Shiny Beast because it puts me in a happy, nostalgic mood. And my favourite album overall is Clear Spot.

I'm not counting the original Bat Chain Puller album, but think it's worth acknowledging each album in the trilogy has elements from that original album that Zappa held hostage.

Movies that activate a sleeper cell in your brain?

The Spy Next Door was one of the DVDs my family owned during a summer I would stay up all night watching movies and TV, and ended up rewatching this film a dozens of times.

There's a scene with Blondie's 'One Way or Another' that I can't disassociate from the movie to this day.
