'Lessons'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
IIRC, In City of Lost Children, the mad scientist bad guy was unequivocally evil. Setting Micmacs in the "real world" means that the bad guys have a bit more nuance to them. They deserve punishment, but maybe not at the level they receive.
I don't want to say more for fear of spoiling.
I got to do a blog post on music documentaries. [link]
I'll have to check out Lomax the Songhunter. I'm a big ole folkie geek, and that sounds like a wonderful film. Speaking of folk stuff, I love Wasn't That a Time! about the Weavers, including their Christmas 1980 Carnegie Hall concert.

Half Japanese ignoramus...
I don't think it's a stretch to say that I own more Jad Fair-related material than 99.44% of the music-loving population.

Indisputably!
Still, I think that you need to properly precede that sentence with: "Sir, I'll have you know that I own more Jad Fair-related material than 99.44% of the music-loving population."

It's more that if you watch it as if the whole thing is a joke, it's much better- good even.
I am one of the haters.

Jad Fair is a genius. I say that without a trace of irony.
I agree as long as he actually does mean it all as a big joke. If he and Penn Gillette are serious?
