"I'm so tired, I haven't slept a wink, I'm so tired, my mind is on the brink"
Just got back from Pink Floyd's The Wall, and let me just say how much more awesome it is on the big screen, I'm so glad I went. The audience wasn't too bad either, but more on that in a second, I've other shit to ramble about.
First off,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY stars_n_scars!!!
Hope you're having a funtastic time on your NYC vacation.
Second, I found 3 great sites with a shit load of free Beastie Boys remixes. All together I got a total of 344 songs. mrfurious, I know you dig those mash ups, and they had quite a few there. All the sites were linked from The Beastie Boys wikipedia page, so go there for the links because I am too lazy to post them. While downloading this mass amount of music I happened to have caught Ray on HBO, and that was a surprisingly great movie. I hate to say it, but Jamie Foxx was amazing, definitely check it out if you get a chance.
As for The Wall, it was fun times. Last time I went to a free midnight movie was like 2 years ago when I saw Pulp Fiction, and that was a horrid experience. It was nothing but stupid emo kids and wanna be punks that all thought they were the coolest because they knew all the words to the movie. People were acting out the movie, reciting the lines, wrestling in the aisles, yelling, screaming, and a few kids even started smoking because "seeing them smoke in the movie made them want a cigarette". I vowed to never go to a free midnight movie again, but this was too good to pass up.
It wasn't all that bad, there was a small group of Hot Topic Punks that laughed during the few sexual scenes and when he goes crazy and smashes up his room, but that was about it really. There was a few people there that were confused and had to ask their friends what was going on, but it was done quietly and not too much of a bother. There was also a lot of kids in Pink Floyd shirts, not so much annoying, just ridiculous. The best was before the movie, when this creepy old semi-professional looking mexican dude and his young ghetto friend were waiting to go in and the ghetto friend was asking about the movie and the mexican guy was telling him what he heard it was about, and was completely wrong. Then they discussed ghetto's red shoes for about 20 minutes and how they are "so cool and bright that they blind me", says the mexican. Later on when we are sitting waiting for the movie to start we see ghetto talking on a cell phone, which would be fine, except that he has a cell phone against one ear and on the other he has one of those lame ear clip phone things, and it was just funny to see him with both. It was funnier there, I swear it. Also some fat douche bag tried to be cool and jump over a chair but ended up falling on his ass, which was hilarious. That was about it, again, during the movie shit was surprisingly quiet and calm, which is awesome, they were all ridiculous looking trendy emo kids, but they were quiet, so all is good.
Come 2:00 the movie is over and we all head home, but I didn't get home until 3 because there was a massive (assumedly) accident on I-95 and we were stopped in traffic for almost an hour. How fun. As for now I desperately need sleep.
