The new Underworld looks fun because it seems they go up the arctic and find Frankenstein's monster.
Any story that has him just hanging up there, immortal and angry is alright with me.


Anyway the best part of that KLF video is them going into the lawsuit with ABBA and claiming this liberated the song Dancing Queen

The new Underworld movie is loving weird. I'm almost glad that I was forced to see it sober (how does a theater that serve alcohol run out of Bud Light?), because otherwise I'd not really be convinced that some of it actually happened.

I think the most :wtc: thing is when one vampire and one werewolf shoot each other like they were bullet sponges (which they are, because they are both special guys) until they are right next to each other, then they both scream and pop out all the bullets inside themselves simultaneously. Like, I'm not sure if it was meant to be as funny as it was.

Or when a bad vampire that previously drank Selene's super blood learns she can survive the sun, but dies seconds later to a sword to the back of the head.

Or how Lara Pulver's character has so many outfit changes to remind the audience she has tits.

Does a fifth Underworld movie warrant spoilers?

In other news, a package showed up late tonight on my doorstep, torn open, the good news is I suppose the things I ordered weren't deemed worthy of stealing.

I got Lady Killer Volume One, by far the most gorgeous comic out there right now.


The other thing was EMF's Stigma.
Weird brit pop that was killed by grunge.

Been hoping to find that CD in the wild for years now, but finally gave in and got it for nothing off amazon.
Same with the Pilfer's Chawalaleng, been one of my favourite albums since it came out, had to resort to amazon for a phsyical copy.
Hell, couldn't even find a legit digital copy.

Burn Hollywood Burn.
A film about the Alan Smithee credit, that ended up being the last film to get the Alan Smithee credit.
Not as some meta joke either, the director hated the final cut of the film.

Nah, I'll drink other stuff, I'm not that picky. Bud Light is just my default when I don't have a specific thing in mind.

Like, when you're watching a fifth Underworld movie and you figure quality is going to be required over quality.

SURGE PRICING BABY

It was a 700% markup, at 8:20 in the morning on a weekday. I paid normal rate when I used them on New Year's eve. I used to talk them up because I thought I'd read they cap their markups at double, apparently I was wrong. I've used them during rushes before and always got a warning saying it'd be 25% extra or whatever, nothing this morning. I'm trying to blow them up on twitter at the moment but I only have like 12 followers so that's not really going to do anything.

I really should watch Videodrome, but I can't shake the feeling I'd be entirely grossed out by it. Not scared, not disturbed, just grossed out.

E, vvv Bud Light lacks both slime/go and the tearing of skin, so it's objectively less gross.

Actually that 10-mile section of interstate used to be part of my commute, now I have to use the subway where today my train was stuck in a tunnel as the authorities had to fix an electrical problem at the next stop. Wasn't that bad of a wait because it was completely silent in the car other than some off-key guy listening & then singing his jams (mainly about beating up that pussy and random sfx) to a bunch of people that just got off work.

Apropos of nothing, I feel bad for live musicians at bars. You know they, deep down, want to play their own music they've written. But their audience (you know, white folks in the process of getting drunk) only respond to the covers they know the lyrics to while in the aforementioned process of getting drunk.

Those songs are objectively better because they sold more albums/singles/were licenced more, only posers pretending to be cool want to hear music that's not on a top 40 station.
