You have heard that it was said, ‘YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous

it's Gregg Araki, everyone!
Ok, it's one thing to be the maker of a Top Quality movie - MYSTERIOUS SKIN - but it's an entirely other realm to be that AND the maker of the most celebrated film of a generation - nowhere.
MYSTERIOUS SKIN is just awesome. There's absolutely no flaws in that film, it's a masterpiece, not some half-baked idea that gets 1/4 cooked...(unlike most movies these days...).
nowhere is possibly the greatest film ever.
Personally, I'd be surprised of KABOOM comes anywhere near the quality of these two movies. I mean, I wasn't too thrilled with THE DOOM GENERATION, TOTALLY F***ED UP was OK, not a classic or anything like that.... And THE LIVING END was about as good as TFU.
But still; it's nice to know he's at least trying. The odds of him succeeding are better than most movie-makers...

are you eating it or is it eating you?
I saw this "cleansing drink" on Google Product Search when my pursuit of a poster for THE STUFF that resembled the original VHS cover-art failed...didn't see the added word "extra" at first, but anyway.........

Letters To Two00tu / when Finch was fab
Dedicated to Megan Irvin (sp?) circa 2001-2002. I don't know if she liked any significant number of these albums, but I was glad to have discovered this "trend" when I did, when I was so hopelessly infatuated with her and these singers' hearts were bleeding on the microphone...from about 2001-2005 I was having the time of my life...pop-punk and emo is still popular, but the "big names" in the genre have more in common with Green Day than Blink 182, focusing on the stupid-jokes and the dirty sounding guitars than the breathtaking emotional resonance...
