Powder (1995)
About an albino who is also a magnet.
This is a movie about an albino who is also a magnet. Somebody thought this up, decided it was a great idea; then went to a movie studio and said, "I have an idea for a movie about an albino who is also a magnet;" the movie studio said, "Great! Can we give you several million dollars to make it?"; then the great genius said "Yes, several million dollars should be enough to realize my vision of a magnetic albino." This happened. It is a real movie, people. Don't see it. Unless you like bad movies; then you must not miss "Powder."
Late World with Zach (2002)
Best Music, Funniest Guy
To keep this short, it was a crime to end this show's run. Not only did Zach feature obscure and up-an-coming musical artists, HE WAS RIDICULOUSLY FUNNY. His act is still hilarious and you can still see him on the odd guest appearance here and there, but there is nothing to fill the musical void left by this show's passing. Shed a tear, men. Strong men also cry. Strong men also cry.
I Am Trying to Break Your Heart (2002)
Great music, erratic movie.
This is a movie about the making of a unique piece of music; an album which is already legendary for the wilderness of idiocy it traveled through on its way to release.
To keep this brief, the movie contains great out-takes from the album as well as an interesting picture of how a recording band acts. But also, the film lacks any real organization and it's as if the director assumed the viewer was already aware of the events around "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot," because he focused much more on the story of Jeff Tweedy making music.
But criticism aside, it's a very interesting movie. And I don't know what Alex- 105 meant by Jay "just being fired" because that was one of the most elaborated upon points in the movie. Remember, Alex? The ten minute scene where Jay won't drop the fact that Jeff wasn't specific about a drum loop and Jeff ends up vomiting because of all the stress. I'd say most people saw the firing coming.
