Elvis Costello Fan Forum

I read "Life of Pi" on holiday in Spain last week. I was a bit dissapointed. The events in the lifeboat are certainly exciting but the style is IMHO a mess. Sometimes too serious, sometimes too silly - the "island" may have a touch of the fantastic but it doesn't work well. Read ...

Rediscovering Massive Attacks "Blue Lines" - Still great

I watched an episode of Desperate Housewifes last night. Teri Polo asked the dark, handsome, dangerous guy about his favorite band and he said Elvis Costello. Polo said: "That's one man not a band" Handsome guy said: "But it's a man with a band" Goes to show how the scriptwriter ...

He should cover all of Nashville Skyline - Almost Blue vol. 2

I never understood the large fanbase for Deconstructing Harry. In my opinion it's woody allen trying too hard to be the old neurotic Woody Allen.

Feast of Wire - Calexico

I'm in the same situation in Copenhagen, Chrille. I also started a thread - it might help. He certainly gets recommended

I was thinking about the scene where Brad Pitt explains the "cigaretburn" you get on cinama screens. It's where the film is put together i think. He puts in a brief pornscene....
I meant that in a time of digital projection, this wouldn't be possible.

Not that interesting actually

Ok - I see. I still haven't noticed any problems with shot-on-film movies projected digital. But then again I never looked hard for it since I was satisfied.

Fight Club would have a problem since the "cigaretburn" got a story of it's own

Why do you hate it, Bobster? The quality and sound is great on digital. The only reason why Peter Jackson didn't shoot his trilogy digitally was because the black colors weren't black enough. But that problem is solved i believe. I'd like to get rid of all those bumps and scratches on the screen. No...

Cope. I've didn't read about your accident before now... Sounds painfull

Last time i almost gave up upon a book was Toni Morrisons 'Beloved' but my class had to read it so i got through. But 'Dog Years' is like a 500 pages poem...exhausting indeed

Ok - thanks. So i guess that both versions contain the same songs

Is there a difference? Is one of the labels American and the other European? I don't get it...

I just gave up upon Gunther Grass' "Dog Years" after 200 pages, the last of his Danzig Trilogy. It's strange because I really liked "The Tin Drum" and I loved "Cat and Mouse" but "Dog Years" is totally different. I hate giving up a book (it rarely happens) - h...

also late - but happy birthday the other day

I'm surprised that I Wanna be Loved doesn't rank lower.

This is hard - not ranking the best but ranking the worst 1. Inch By Inch 2. Home Truth 3. Love Field 4. Worthless Thing 5. Peace in our Time 6. The Comedians 7. The Great Unknown 8. The Only Flame in Town 9. Joe Porterhouse 10. Sour Milk-Cow Blues 11. The Deportees Club 12. Room With No Number 13. ...

I'll throw in a rank of GBCW today or tomorrow.

Great pictures - thx

Prince
Stone Roses
My Morning Jacket
Bruce Springsteen

Street Legal
Not known as a good Dylan album but i think it's one of the best.

The scenes in 'The Aviator' are shot in a way that they look as movies did in the decade the film takes place in. Like Technicolor in the 40's and a different style in the 30's.
