Hi, unfortunately I don't collect pictures anymore, but I do frequent /pol/, one of the only boards on 4chan that I can tolerate (other than say /adv/ if I'm feeling girly).
If anyone could please please please tell me what the movie is called where (I can only remember one scene) all these crows come flying around and they swarm on this one guy and stuff an I'm pretty sure he's some kid of half robot thing or something like that because one of the crows fly away with a nut in its mouth. There's also a main character who is a boy. Damn this is soon my head in so if anyone has the answer can you please email me at; xxdream-theaterxx@hotmail.com
Yep, criteria is the exact same as albums. If I rate a song 9.0 that would mean that song is just as amazing as an entire 9.0 album (not just a similarly timed portion of it, but the album in its entirety). For Black Saint & The Sinner Lady, if I combined the first 3 tracks into 1, I would probably rate Side 1 around the 8.5 range. Conversely, if you break apart a longer piece (song or album), its parts are very unlikely to each be equal or better than the whole piece altogether, hence: Track 1 - 7.6 / Track 2 - 7.5 / Track 3 - 7.5 ... If I broke up the last track into 3 roughly equal parts it would be a similar story (but with better ratings)... In summary, a masterpiece is always an accumulation of lesser parts. By personal observation of music as an art form, it's so far proven to be virtually impossible to make a masterpiece in less than, say, 10 minutes, simply because of how much emotional power needs to be accumulated to reach that level. It's rare enough that musicians create one in 40+ minutes...
It's subjective so there's not really any "right" or "wrong" here, but I should say that these ratings/rankings have been thought through and placed very meticulously. At this point, probably 95% of them can be considered accurate within my criteria -- no more than +/- 0.2 different than they're currently rated.
Sadly, the last novel written by Charles Dickens, left in its unfinished state. The story follows John Jasper, Choirmaster and opium smoker, whom (it appears) has killed his nephew Edwin Drood. As with other Dickens books, supporting characters are numerous and well-fleshed, so the audience can never be entirely certain who the main characters are, until the story is pretty much ended. Things were really starting to get interesting when it left off, with Jasper half-admitting to a murder and the opium peddler following him around. The real mystery will never be unravelled, so this is an entirely fitting title for the last story in a long a prodigious career.
Is your criteria for rating songs different than albums? Are the ratings even comparable? The first side of Black Saint and the Sinner Lady seems waaaaaay to low, but that's just my opinion.
Maria Callas - another great talent I've not experienced yet! I will check out those recordings. Though it may take a while. I spend much more time relistening to old stuff than exploring new stuff. As a result, musical progress is a very, very slow process for me.
This is frank ravalli i would like a copy of downfall film with bruno ganz i only have a vcr i hope you could record a copy for me on vhs the address 3905 dale rd #b modesto ca 95356
The work done by you is really appreciative. You comprehensively shared all the information of events. The Tudor Lodge * Weeley Festival of Progressive "Music * 27-29-Aug. 1971 * 1 *" are great legendary music. seo social media
Disorder is my personal favorite overall, Day of the Lords, Shadowplay, She's Lost Control and maybe Interzone are other good tracks from UP. Closer is inconsistent but 24 Hours and the opener are great from what I remember, so I agree with you there. I don't love Joy Division that much but I've been planning to re-listen to their singles especially.
Ok I'm thinking 1980's-early 90's, potentially American, tho not necessarily
Children's movie with little boy main character and a group of adorable partying aliens,
Possibly led by cat-like alien
Twist is, they transform into inanimate objects
Kind of useless lol
Please help me find my long lost childhood memories

Update #12 (01 April) - Changes in the top 10: Puzzgal (4->2), rwebb (2->3), tom_elce (3->4), kaplan (7->6), Ultimo Lee (8->7), robear61 (6->8).
Only eight players left with an average of more than 1 film/day - julesyoung isn't one of them anymore. Mighytsparks is the only player with an average of more than 2 films/day, but only just: 182 films in 91 days. I saw eight films this week and won one spot - probably just because robear61 didn't update - and I'm 6th now.

I thought I'd sidestep crowding AfterHours page with our discussion!..:
In my own admittedly circumscribed listening habits (there are tons of performers I've never heard), Toscanini has stood out for his extraordinary sense of his orchestra, and his astounding flexibility when it comes to a variety of composers. His symphonic recordings of Beethoven, Mozart and Haydn are fairly astonishing, as well as Puccini's operas (he conducted the world premieres of La Boheme and Turandot), Mendhellson's A Midsummer's Night's Dream, etc..
A critic like Haggin praises Toscanini for his commitment to and understanding of a composer's expressive intentions, for not reshaping (Haggin would say distorting) notes for his own purposes as, say, Furtwangler would. I haven't listened to enough performances to make that kind of observation for myself, but perhaps it will mean something to you. What I hear, when listening to Toscanini conduct Verdi pieces like Requiem, Te Deum, Aida, Falstaff and Otello, is an enormous insight into the drama of his music, sensitively moving from note to note, never going for a cheap emotive effect, either through bombastic stylization or otherwise. You say conducting Verdi sounds like his birthright, and I don't disagree, his gifts are congruent with the exquisiteness of the operas (much like Furtwangler's sensibility is suited for Wagner's grand, mythic vision).
To be completely honest, when it comes to Verdi's operas--with the exception of Toscanini's Falstaff and Otello (I may note that I also have a fondness for Furtwangler's poorly recording performance of this opera, which was my introduction to its greatness)--I mostly turn to Maria Callas. I am heavily biased in her favor, she was my introduction to opera--so I may not be the best judge. Tullio Serafin's Aida and The Force of Destiny, Gabriele Santini's La Traviata and Von Karajan's Il Trovatore, all with Callas, are what I listen to. In any case, I hope you enjoy Verdi's operas as much as I do, let me know what you think.
Cool, that makes a lot of sense.

Which tracks would you remove from Raw Power to make it an 8?

:-D
Jenny McCarthy in her prime. :D
Why wouldn't you include 'I Love Lucy'? Otherwise, good list.

Hi sorry I just saw your post. I don't know if I qualify as a film lover but if I get a chance I'll check it out.
Thanks :)
