Yo, Roy, have you read Hammett's Red Harvest? Put that on your list if you haven't I've seen this one recommended by numerous posters in the stickied Books thread. I'll move it to the top of the list. And I just discovered this thread: Noir http://www.philaflava.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=68639&...

There's a great but very very rare french adaptation of it that I've seen once and was never able to track down again.

Will do.

You should check out After Dark My Sweet too, it's in the similar vein of solid overlooked latter day noir Thanks for the suggestion. I'm actually getting ready to read the Thompson novel. I finished Killer Inside Me about a week ago, and I'm just about done with Pop. 1280. Others that I'll be read...

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9e/Redrockmovieposter.jpg/220px-Redrockmovieposter.jpg I was checking Nick Cage's Rotten Tomatoes profile, and I saw that this was his highest rated movie, so I requested it through my library network. Pretty dope. Hopper and JT Walsh are consistentl...

Yeah, I figured that I'd test the waters with this poll to see if there are enough Bob Dylan fans to do a batch of these.

62-63 Demos
65 Studio
John Wesley Harding Era
Blood On The Tracks Era

But I'll probably just move on to something else.

Rebound: The Legend of Earl "The Goat" Manigault (1996) Good call. Back when it came out, I used to think that Clarence Williams was a prick for not letting Don do his thing, but now it's like, why doesn't this dumb faggot just pass the ball?

I haven't thought about the Simpsons in like 15 years, but of course I loved that shit back in the 90s.

This past episode was weak, but I thought the one before that was hilarious. Phone Phreaker: Man, I've been phone phreaking since I was 14 years old! Raylan: Okay, I don't know what that is, but I'm assuming that you weren't getting laid too often Raylan: He's been phone phreaking since he was 14 Ti...

no love for this? Yeah, good call. I don't think I've heard a Nirvana song that I don't like. Word. Remember when this forum voted Pearl Jam over Nirvana in a best band poll? Surely a low point in the :phila:'s history. Roy do you have Nirvana stuff that hasn't been officially released? The overwhe...

RIP to the gawd, and fuck Fritz Lang.

I've noticed that ackbar is no longer an art fag. Serious props. You see that the grass is much greener on the other side.

Virginia Madsen was the flyest woman not named Christie Brinkley to me when I was like, I dunno...ten years old? Virginia Madsen was a less attractive Sharon Stone. No way was she even in the same league as Uptown Girl. Madsen is kind of a strange case because she was only super hot from 1987 to 19...

Autopsy is the fucking goat.

Too bad there's not enough demand to justify a box set release with all 11 episodes, because I've been fiending to revisit those.

Good point, but I'd still put Gehrig at #2 because of this:

That sucks.

We need less Dewey, and more Tim Gutterson. His lack of involvement up to this point is pretty much inexcusable.

DJ Muggs was in the conversation for production MVP in 91, 93, and 95. Too bad that DJ Premier and The RZA were peaking during the same time period. I'd say that Temples Of Boom is his masterpiece.
