Fuck a duck. I'm so sorry man.
Here's my fave "fuck it, I dont care" song.

S'okay for now. Right now I feel a little like I did when I had to move to Delaware ... except backwards. And now I have a car payment.

Wait.

I like the song, though. Not usually what I'd listen to, but I dig it. The angry voice of the singer with the bouncy-ness of the song really makes it.

Crap~! *hugs and other goodies*

I hope you find something else soon.

Japanese women wrestling and kicking ass while someone rocks out in Japanese. VERY good.

And...

For rocking music AND car explosions and stunts.

Yeah ... I'm wondering if maybe a change of field might be smart at this point.

I'd seen that Japanese women wrestling video before, but it's a great choice.

The GTA 4 video bugs me because I keep thinking the guy should be pool pancake after most of those things. Sure, he hits the water when he lands but he also LANDS AGAINST CONCRETE. @_@

Awww, shit.

Awww, that's a nice song. I had always heard they were a depressing band, too. Good to see they can lighten up once in awhile.

[imayb1.livejournal.com]

I don't find Morrissey depressing-- or the Smiths, for that matter. (Morrissey was the lead singer for the Smiths before he went solo.) I think the music is mellow and the lyrics thoughtful, so many people leap to 'depressing'. I'm glad you like the song. :)

"Say a Prayer in the Darkness for the Magic To Come" - cuz I've been missing you lately too, kiddo

This one might not help at all, but I find it very purging. Jim Steinman always does that for me. And hey, young!sexy Diane Lane and Micheal Pare (who I have a story about for you someday). WARNING: very post New Wave 80s pseudo-anthem:




and this one because as tired as it's beginning to get, it still makes me laugh...

[quietprofanity.livejournal.com]

[feels like a young idiot] What movie is that and who is Michael Pare?

I dig the song, though. It's like something from Jem but turned up to 11. And I never hated "Total Eclipse of the Heart" like others, did.

(And of course it helped! My "power music" today started with Cyndi Lauper's "I'm Gonna Be Strong" so I'm working from a low point, anyway.)

Hee on the fancy pants dance, too. I actually hadn't seen that.

Nothing wrong with not knowing something you've never seen before

The movie is STREETS OF FIRE - a great little sleeper set in a continually rainy, romanticised,1950s Rock & Roll music world. Great cast including Rick Moranis' first dramatic role (where he was Diane Lane's completely unsympathetic asshole of a manager), Wilem Dafoe's first starring role (he's the villain) and a pre ALIENS Bill Paxton. Check it out.

Micheal Pare was an up-and-coming male-lead type in the 80s who never seemed to cut it big. He was in EDDIE AND THE CRUISERS, this movie, and then seemed todo a lot of made-for-cable. I was in a movie with Pare in the 90s where I played a Morlock-ish post-nuke punk character called "The Violator". I have on-set stories for you sometime.

I guess not ...

I still feel kind of bad about that one time my Aunt went all "WTF?" on me when I told her how my friend and I rented The Big Chill for the first time. I had to remind her it came out the year before I was born, and then I felt worse because I realized I'd made her feel really old.

The movie sounds fun. I haven't been watching movies lately. (ALTHOUGH I GUESS I HAVE LOTS OF FREE TIME NOW.) But I'll see if I can see it.

I'd love to hear your on-set stories.

Actually, you know what I'm still waiting to hear from you, because you hinted at this once and I'm super curious ... why do you think the later Star Trek series were such a step back diversity wise?

Re: I guess not ...

[papajoemambo.livejournal.com]

Oh man - the STAR TREK thing requires an answer i just don't have time to get into right now. It has to do with what I consider to be lazy writing on a formula combined with a certain kind of racial profiling that wouldn't have been seen as anything but negatively racist had the characters involved been human, and pretty stereotypically cartoonishly visually "human racist" in the way it was constructed.

I have a feeling this is something I'll want to get off my chest by the time the new-old TREK movie comes out this summer, but the time just isn't around.

Re: I guess not ...

[quietprofanity.livejournal.com]

Something like all the Klingons and the whoseywhats acting a certain way, then? And maybe some aliens have big noses. Stuff like that?

But yeah, you can talk about this when you have the time. I just wanted to let you know that was something I was interested in. (Mostly to be in the know. I've only seen a few episodes of Star Trek. I'm not much for space, I think. Although I'm kind of enjoying my John Carter of Mars book -- despite it being the standard "What These People Need is a Honky" story in space.)

I can't resist jumping in

Let's hear it for '80s rock movies! Hehehe. There isn't much to Streets of Fire. It's something to have on while you do chores or something; it doesn't take much attention to follow. I'd forgotten how many 'names' were in that movie.

Eddie and the Cruisers, on the other hand, is a good film-- not great, but entertaining and the music rocks. I put it in the same league as The Commitments.

*HUGS*

I am so, so sorry. I'll be praying for you! Hopefully you'll be able to find something really soon.

[quietprofanity.livejournal.com]

[HUGS!] Thank you.

[sinisterf.livejournal.com]

I am sorry I missed this when you originally posted :(

It seems no one is safe.... I wish I had some power music to share... alas I've got nothing :(

[quietprofanity.livejournal.com]

It's all right.

I'm not as bad off as some. I've got plans to move in with my parents, which kind of sucks, but I think it'll have its good points, too.
