I'm starting to question my strength as we closer. Even with movies I haven't seen, I find myself, downloading the script, reading it and knowing exactly how it ends going into it.
But it never spoils it for me. So maybe I will listen to new tracks, I dunno. But GN'R will not post anymore new tracks on their website imo, unless they are new singles.

I know, it does. At first when I listened to the rip, I was like "hmmm, that's different".
I threw it on a CD-R, and kept listening to it on the road, and finally it just hit me, and I cranked it, and it was like "FUCK, this is getting me like Jungle".
I just wanted to destroy.
#16923 Re: Guns N' Roses » When will it leak? *It Leaked* » 941 weeks ago
If "Scraped" is the "don't you try and stop us now" song, I might listen to it if it's around somewhere, because i've already heard that little part, and it might be tempting.
But the rest, i'm waiting. I want that moment of getting it, and like the final version of CD, it's obvious that MAJOR changes are going to be on these songs from the leaks. I want to hear these as if they are new, and be driving down the road from the Best Buy and be like "wow, they changed that, wow they changed this" that kind of thing.
And of course to hear the new stuff.
I'm really anxious to hear This I Love. I mean REALLY anxious. This song has been in the works since the old days, and if you watch Making The Fuckin' Videos, there was a song that was supposed to be in-between November Rain and Estranged, thus calling Estranged "Part IV of the Trilogy".
I've always wondered all these years if that song was originally supposed to be Part III. I'm probably wrong, but i'm just curious. Could you imagine this album producing another Rain or Estranged type track? It would be amazing. TWAT is already in that area, and who knows, This I Love might surpass it.

At this point, no.

#16926 Re: Guns N' Roses » GNR Myspace Updates » 941 weeks ago
GNR Post a Song on MySpace is a bit of a misleading title.
I went over there looking for a new song.
But as for the MySpace friends thing, I think we're looking too much into them not being on the friends list. MySpace is so... two years ago at this point. I question how much they actually use it.
#16927 Re: The Garden » Government Foils Skinhead Plot to Assassinate Obama » 941 weeks ago
My boys at the ATF doing what they do best.
Believe me when I tell you this, Obama is going to be the most protected president ever, by ATF, FBI, CIA, and especially the Secret Service.
This country would be set back 50 years on race relations if a black president were killed, and they are going to make even more sure they jump in front of a bullet for this guy, for sake of the American dream.

I really don't understand all the dislike for Shackler's. That song rules imo.
#16929 Re: The Sunset Strip » Horror Franchises that Should be Killed Off » 941 weeks ago
No I also liked Hellraiser IV sic.
Here's my breakdown of the list.
1) The Lost Boys should've never gotten sequel treatment. According to Corey Haim a Lost Boys III is in the works, minus Feldman, but that just might be passive-aggressive at this point. Who the fuck cares anyways...
2) Hellraiser went south with 1992's Hellraiser III: Hell On Earth. Not 1996's Bloodline. Hellraiser III was godawful, and truely one of the worst films i've ever seen. Bloodline rebounded, but not by much. Inferno at least attempted to re-invent, although I recently reviewed this and it is a bit flat. I actually thought Hellseeker, which continued the new formula was better. Deader was too muddled to really understand wtf was going on. To my surprise, despite it's very 'teen' approach, Hellworld was quite good, with a very interesting twist. It isn't the first two films, but I honestly feel of all of the sequels past the second, 2004's Hellraiser VIII: Hellworld is the best. Thankfully the upcoming reboot, will take us back to the very sinister and unique first film, which in 1987 was a total breath of fresh air.
3) The Halloween franchise should've stopped after 1982's Halloween III: Season of the Witch. Halloween III was a stellar sequel, quite underrated by most, and the most original film since Carpenter's original. I liked Carpenter (who was just producing by that point) idea of turning into a seasonal anthology franchise. Fans didn't, and Myers was unneccessarily resurrected for 1988's Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers. Although the film was quite good for a 'Part 4', it was still not close to the original Carpenter-produced three, and the franchise should've just been left alone as a trilogy after Witch. I don't think H2O or Zombie's reboot should've ever happened either, in case you're wondering.
4) A Nightmare On Elm Street should've never had a sequel. 'nuff said.
5) I actually don't think Friday The 13th has ever hit a bad spot. Even when they do have a bad film they seem to rebound with the next. Mainly this is because the plot is very basic, and the formula is tried and true. 1, 2, 3, & 4 were all great with 4 being the best. 5 sucked. 6 ruled. 7 was average. 8 is good and underrated. Jason Goes To Hell was a nice change of pace. Jason X was just popcorn fun. And Freddy vs. Jason was just good fun. So I don't think this franchise ever really hit a bad spot to call it a day. Hopefully the reboot is good.
6) 1985's Howling II: Your Sister Is A Werewolf is single-handedly the best werewolf movie ever. They should've just stopped there. Nothing can top it... lmao.
7) The Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise should've stopped with Chainsaw 2. A very good sequel, with good comedy. It's a cult film. I love it. But future sequels were un-needed, even though I am partial to 1990's Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III.
Other franchises i'd like to comment on....
8) Psycho should never had any sequels, although II & IV were decent. Still, this should've stayed a stand-alone movie.
9) The George Romero "Dead" franchise should've stopped after 1985's Day of the Dead. Leaving it as a trilogy at that point, which it was for 20 years, left it as one of the great horror franchises in history. Now it's been watered down by the more recent sequels and remakes.
10) There should be MORE MORE MORE "Phantasm" sequels. Four ain't enough. That should actually be the tag line. Show Reggie on the front cover of Phantasm V with his shotgun and the tag line - "four ain't enough".
11) The Tremors franchise should've stopped after 1996's Tremors II: Aftershocks. The first two films are very very good, with imo, Tremors II being the best direct-to-video film ever made. Very good stuff. But 3 & 4 crossed the line into 'hokey' territory, even though they were both okay films. The short-lived TV series also further watered down the potency of the first two films.
#16930 Re: The Garden » McCain guarantees victory » 941 weeks ago
James Lofton wrote:I'm starting to think McCain was the sacrificial lamb because the GOP didn't have anyone worthy of running and they knew this election would basically be a referendum on the Bush years. The fact McCain is so close really shows what a weak candidate Obama is.
Yes & No. For starters, Guiliani ran a terrible campaign, but he was the guy who probably was the favorite going in. However his constant 9/11 talk, avoiding Florida?? and his stance on abortion hurt him as a GOP candidate. Huckabee is too far to the right, and the first few states that vote in the primary (Iowa, NH, Fla) don't care about that stuff. Nobody wanted Mitt Romney, he was too fake, like he should be President on West Wing. Ron Paul never got enough serious media attention, but he was always the fringe candidate.. So McCain won moreso by process of elimination that anything. Really after Bush & with the current economic crisis going on, no republican candidate would have won. Although I still think Guliani should have won, but whatever, McCain won it fairly. And Rudy really messed it up, which is ashame.
Dead on. To this day, my favorite candidate in this election was Guliani. Had all intentions on voting for him.
But he didn't make it out of the primary. He ran a terrible campaign, and sadly had all the momentum going in and blew it. Then he put all his eggs in the basket of FLA in an "all or nothing" move... it ended up being nothing.
