Struggling to think of a huge boomer counter-cultural (or pseudo-counter-cultural) musical act where there isn’t at least a sliver of their catalog where I think they found a unique synthesis worth cultural celebration. Help me remember a rock warhorse I should hate.

Hello my friends. Today we're going to explore a niche topic regarding well.. the end. Specifically The End of Marvel Comics. As usual reposts and quotes are highly appreciated as bluesky is built around those. Let's begin our journey ... or perhaps end it?

Because the John Huston thing requires humility about budgets, looking for scripts, a willingness to serve genre over the personal brand, ignoring career arc concerns…plus Soderbergh was a star out the gate and won best director in 2000. An easier time to build than now.

We just gotta keep saying “it is not just ideal, but possible, for humans to respect & take care of each other,” and try to do it, even as those in power either avoid the matter or show their horns.

This movie is probably a big reason Ryan Murphy hasn’t bothered with the superhero genre. Horror and procedural soap are better outlets for camp enthusiasts who don’t speak earnest juvenile power fantasy. Schumacher found out the hard way.

There’s a guy even older than me at karaoke in a mudhoney shirt and jfc am I glad I didn’t wear my mudhoney shirt.

I am once again begging you to analyze political trends using any other criterion besides age cohort.

Ok NOW will people admit Model/Actriz sounds less like Liars and more like Conor Oberst covering “A Little Bit Alexis”? (a positive, imo.) youtu.be/DfTgF_IAae8

So cool

The google sleuthing I will do, when Shazam is being a dink, and I don’t feel like asking the barista, to find out what Modern Jangle I’m hearing about twentysomething romantic feels. (The answer was a 15 year old Best Coast song.)

It was such a perfect example of someone getting so famous in the 20th century they didn’t get all the later cultural memos. Shitting on Keanu was a classic 90s bit, and MP was seasons into Friends before even The Matrix happened. Why would Perry know how beautifully Reeves aged?

I was tempted to share a video noting the applause fox added to a certain somebody’s speech yesterday, but instead I’ll share something beautiful that it reminded me of. youtu.be/OIcyI6iHK-Y?...

I love how every doc explaining punk has that montage of keyboard solos and prog business, suggesting revolution was needed but if you watch 70s top of the pops clips you’ve got like sweet and pub bands, making punk look like the crankier, garage version of what was already happening.

I dunno, a musical where Tom Hiddleston almost gets to have sex with several women while writing about famous rock deaths for SPIN in the 2000s? I’m curious.

Gotta admire guys online who think “comics accurate” and “looks ridiculous” are two circles on a Venn Diagram that never touch. Do Catholics ever respond to “does the pope wear a funny hat?” with “that became canon centuries ago!!”?

Man I’m not criticizing anyone who gets their ass up and marches around for something good, I don’t care if they’ve got a sign like “Domuld Drumpf hope u like Hamberders” they bought markers for that shit good for them
