Topic: Rolling Stone Mag rates ABB at #2 in top 50 albums of 2005....From Ian Return to archive Page: 1 2 3

PeerQueer Solid album.

The Keith songs have really grown on me.

Infamy is a superior track - period. Love it.

ONNYA is a quality tune, but I think only the more devoted Stones fans are comfortable hearing that kind of tune from a group of guys in their 60s. Even Mick, being the physical miracle he is, is having trouble living up to the image at his advancing years. In fact, I find Keith's pirate outlaw act easier to accept. Only Charlie has managed to remain truly ageless - 'cause he is such a cool and well dressed gentleman who does not bend to the whims of fashion, but rather exudes style. Even the casual Stones observer is drawn to that kind of cool.

The real question is where will the Stones go from here - what will the plans be this time next year? A solid album, yet another tour...

What next?

Anything?

glencar I think Charlie should still do the Sopranos show as a gangster but not Keith at this point.

PeerQueer Charlie has the best wardrobe in the biz.

Men would do well to follow his lead...
December 19th, 2005 09:39 PM
glencar You are a definite fashionista!
December 19th, 2005 09:45 PM
Sir Stonesalot Blue/Glencar...

I don't mind Rough Justice. It's better live when Charlie livens the pace up a bit.

BOMH is ok, but would have been better if the real slide player in the band had done the guitar work.

There is the aforementioned last 45 seconds of ONNYA.

And uhhhhhh.....

I'm looking over the song list......hmmmmmmmm....uuummmmm...

Nope. That's it. I find the rest of it boring and forgettable. Sorry.

no apologies needed jair,
i see that cynicism everyday....
and you're right, i stopped paying attention to RS when i got bored by the incestuous nature of the editorial content -
if jann doesn't want to fuck them - either literally (see jagger) or figuratively - you're not going to see it in RS....
yeah, glencar - jann still has the touch....
up someone's ass....
although the last 45 seconds of onnya is ALMOST enough to warrant the #2 spot on any list.....
'oh NOOOOO.....'

Sir Stonesalot >The movie " KING KONG " reminds me a lot of the blockbuster " TITANIC " a few years back ..................

Did you really like it???

Some of the action sequences were outstanding, and the CGI was incredible. But it was WAY too long, and there were continuity problems out the yingyang. The acting was uniformly atrocious. I found a lot of Peter Jackson's direction to be hamfisted as well.

And what the fuck was that whole figure skating Kong thing about? I mean, that was just retarded.

Joey " Some of the action sequences were outstanding, and the CGI was incredible. But it was WAY too long, and there were continuity problems out the yingyang. The acting was uniformly atrocious. I found a lot of Peter Jackson's direction to be hamfisted as well. "

It has been said that the movie that wins the Oscar for BEST PICTURE reflects the social mood of the country .......this movie captures Bushie43's America beautifully ( especially in the first hour when the audience witnesses two classes of individuals in ' Depression - Era Manhattan ' --- those EXTREMELY well -off --- and those falling further and further behind ) .



" and what the fuck was that whole figure skating Kong thing about? I mean, that was just retarded. "

Yeah , but they HAD to throw in a little ( Lil' Fiji ) something for the chicks in the audience . You are being too picky !!!!

" Here is the jaw-dropping, eye-popping, heart-stopping movie epic we've been waiting for all year. Peter Jackson follows up his Lord of the Rings trifecta with a stupendously entertaining redo of the 1933 classic that made him want to make movies. The director may be working off a borrowed dream, but he utilizes every technical advance of the last seventy-two years to reimagine the 100-minute black-and-white original as a three-hour explosion of color and FX miracles. What you see will spin your head six ways from Sunday. I've heard gripes from jolt junkies about the hour it takes for the tall, dark and nontraditionally handsome leading man to make his entrance. Jeez, people, that's what they call building a rooting interest in the characters. Naomi Watts as Ann Darrow, the role created by Fay Wray, had me at hello. Struggling to make it as an actress in Depression-era Manhattan (stunningly rendered, by the way), Ann signs on with master showman Carl Denham (Jack Black with just the right mad glint in his eye), hops on a tramp steamer and heads for an uncharted island where she will nearly get killed making her film debut. Carl also tricks Jack Driscoll (Adrien Brody) on board to write the script. This playwright of the common people is a new character whom the script fails to develop, but Brody radiates a romantic intensity that makes him a natural to fall for Ann. It's the film's second hour -- the arrival on Skull Island (a scary marvel of design) -- that kicks the action into high gear. As Kong grabs Ann in his giant paw and fights off freakishly huge insects, spiders, stampeding dinosaurs and three T-Rexes, you'll feel like a kid again staring at the big screen, enveloped by the visual wonders. The mischievous wit and touching gravity of the script by Jackson and his gifted partners , Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens, kicks in as well. Ann is not just a screamer; she has the smarts to know she needs Kong on her side. So she does her act for him -- dancing, juggling, somersaults. He yawns and knocks her down when he's bored, but when she sits with him to watch a sunset, he's a goner. So are we. Watts is absolutely fabulous -- funny, sexy and moving. And save a roar for Andy Serkis, whose movements served as a model for Kong, just as they did for Gollum in The Lord of the Rings. Watts and Serkis make you believe -- not in an erotic fantasy, but in tenderness and longing. In the film's last hour, you'll bawl like a baby when Ann follows Kong to the top of the Empire State Building as he swats away the biplanes out to stop him from sharing one more sunrise with his lady. The breathtaking beauty and terror of these scenes ends in Kong's deadly plunge. I was disappointed that Jackson shied away from Kong bouncing off the sides of the building as he did in the original, painful caroms I still remember feeling in my gut. But aside from a few cheesy effects (Kong sliding on the ice in a park), there's little to bitch about. Jackson, a wizard to rival Gandalf, ends 2005 on a note of pure exhilaration. "I'm quittin' the blues of the world," sings Al Jolson on the soundtrack. You won't find a better way to join him than King Kong. "
