More handsome than I expected. I thought you were a little fat but you're not.
Great hair.
#602 Re: Guns N' Roses » Why is GNR so ashamed of (most) of their past? » 194 weeks ago
There are only 3 things the fans really want in terms of unheard material:
The UYI documentary Perfect Crime
Chinese Democracy sessions.
Soundboards of unheard shows.
Everything else is old news or limited value. I guess it would be cool if they released individual track recordings of all the instruments on the albums. Don't know if that is ever really done.

This picture is actually perfect. It gives vibes of the last episode of a long running tv show and you see what the characters end up doing after the show is over.

I'm not so much looking at the dudes!
Of course the main leadinne is not ugly in an absolute sense, but definitely they could have found somebody more striking. Stranger Things is another example. Or Terminator Dark Fate. And it's not a matter of "oh my god she's such a good actress either", they are all average performers, so why don't you give me something pretty? The girl in Dark Fate is actually pretty but they tried to make her as manlike as possible in the movie.
What intrigues me the most is how far they are going to take this. Will we be seeing literal goblinas and costanzas on the big screen in the future? Like, leading the movie? Or will profits dictate we stick to reality on that issue which would serve as everlasting proof that their ideology is wrong? I think we are going to see it for exactly that reason. They can't let that happen. 300 pounds is pretty and healthy and you just gonna have to deal with that.
#605 Re: Guns N' Roses » Favorite Guns N'Roses Songs? :) » 194 weeks ago
This is tougher than it sounds. Obviously I could list a bunch of favorite songs but it would be like 20-30 songs. To make a top 5 or even a top 10 would be pretty hard. It's hard to even single out a couple of really big guns.
I think I have to categorize them.
1. Songs you play to people who say GN'R sucks:
-Locomotive
-My Michelle
I tried to come up with a third song but I think maybe that's it? You can't call any of those songs boring, pretentious, gay or that Axl sounds like the neighbourhood cat.
2: Songs you play to girls:
-NR
-Don't Cry
-Patience
-SCOM
Lots to choose from here. Had to make it a top 4.
3. Songs you play to show that GN'R is more than just sleazerock and ballads:
-DTJ
-The Garden
-Coma
4. Songs you play when you just want to get drunk and kick in a window:
-Jungle
-Nightrain
-YCBM
5. Party songs:
-PC
-Used to Love Her
-KOHD
6. Songs you play when you want to show this Axl dude can be fucking edgy:
-One In A Million
#606 Re: The Sunset Strip » Most Recent Movie You've Seen » 194 weeks ago
Not a movie but a good show, Battlestar Galactica.
I liked this when I first watched it 15 years ago. Didn't consider it "art tv" like the Sopranos, but it was a good fun show like SG-1.
Still holds up. The whole Cylon arc is pretty good tv for a network show. It is cable actually, but everything about it feels like a network show.
#607 Re: Guns N' Roses » No new single this year? » 194 weeks ago
How are we still doing this after all these years? We never learn do we?
#608 Re: The Sunset Strip » House of The Dragon » 194 weeks ago
Only thing I'm going to say about this show is that it made me notice the recent trend of hiring ugly people for movie roles. Part of the "inclusiveness" no doubt.
It's like they forgot that movies are supposed to be an escape from reality, not a fucking reminder!
#609 Re: Guns N' Roses » Hard Skool: Does it date from ‘96? » 195 weeks ago
There's one thing you mention here that makes me think Axl could have been open for a limited, one time type of deal reunion, and that is getting the rights to the back catalogue. If this was offered to Axl back then or at any time, I'm sure he would be either tempted or willing.
But if that was his criteria there was never any chance of that happening anyway.
What is odd about the whole thing is the nature of Slash's visit to Axl's house. Why did he throw his current band under the bus? Why would he feel the need to do that? I think there is only one answer to that question and that is for Slash to rejoin the band, with or without the other members.
Getting the lawsuits settled is obviously something you want, but I don't see Slash putting himself on the spot and groveling to Axl's housekeeper just for that.
Slash thinking he might as well be with Axl when Weiland is just as bad, that makes a lot of sense to me.

The possible reunion in 2006 would have been no big deal as we have seen from 2016 onwards!....slash and duff would have recorded their parts as contributions and nothing else!...in fact that's what they are currently doing!....musicians from axl's command!...and live fink,bumblefoot and fortus played better chinese material!....what would the reunion have been for? ...there's nothing to stop them from writing together and we still wonder what would have come out of that ipotetic reunion?.... easy!...nothing!.... there's no music or chemistry and the reunion has postponed chinese 2 and on top of that it will be re-recorded with the dubious contributions of slash and duff!.... the success killed the group because it conditions them commercially and creatively! Axl should have buried the name guns and called his work something else!....buckethead was the right guy and wanted to drop the weight of the name!....changed the name axl could have released all the material they had and onrar to the piece of band he had!....josh freese,robin fink,tommy stinson,paul huge,pitman,dizzy reed,buckethead and axl!...that was the band!.....
