It's dusk, and the news is talking about riots in a nearby city. For some reason, many of the rioters have been taken to the hospital with bite wounds. Is this a red flag for you, or will you ignore the story... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~230088871556 Sun, 7 May 2006 12:38:26 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_230088871556?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_189913075332?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - It's hard to truly call a comedy album great. Sure, some are thought of that way, even developing legions of fans that quote "you might be a redneck if..." for years, but let's face it - you can only hear the same joke a few times before it just isn't... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~189913075332 Fri, 15 Jul 2005 17:23:50 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_189913075332?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_186419547780?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - This is a review of the original 1977 release, not the special edition or the DVD. A cultural phenomenon. A modern mythology. A timeless classic. All of these phrases seem to pop up again and again in summaries of George Lucas' 1977 sci-fi epic... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~186419547780 Sat, 18 Jun 2005 20:43:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_186419547780?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_183158148740?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - Danzig's first release cemented their place as an uncompromising metal band that wisely avoided both prevailing schools of thought at the time. The first being that good looks, lots of makeup, and a party atmosphere was the most important thing a band... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~183158148740 Fri, 13 May 2005 18:33:27 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_183158148740?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_183061876356?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - It was inevitable that when Kurt Cobain died, the record industry would capitalize. And why not, from a business standpoint? They surely felt short-changed as their golden goose was taken from them after only three major-label releases, one of which was... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~183061876356 Thu, 12 May 2005 21:05:20 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_183061876356?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_181172473476?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - Let's face it...most Star Wars games aren't that good. From the early days of Atari's monotonous The Empire Strikes Back to the lame PS1 Star Wars "Mortal Combat ripoff" (I can't remember the title), very few have stood out... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~181172473476 Mon, 25 Apr 2005 19:45:48 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_181172473476?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_180342918788?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - Funny how the majority sees only one side of a thing. Take Bruce Springsteen, for example. The man has released a swarm of albums over the past thirty years, but his biggest commercial successes came with his biggest sounds. Born To Run and... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~180342918788 Mon, 18 Apr 2005 00:03:43 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_180342918788?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_177983950468?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - At the suggestion of a reader, I have updated this review with a short plot summary. Re-read it if you've already rated it and if you feel it's warranted, re-rate it. My initial reaction to the preview was: "I saw this when it was called... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~177983950468 Sun, 27 Mar 2005 03:31:44 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_177983950468?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_163119926916?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - And so, after just having reviewed one of the best and most popular hard rock/pop albums of the 80's, I will review one of the most overrated. Def Leppard was one of those bands that was tailor-made for Behind The Music. They recorded two... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~163119926916 Sat, 27 Nov 2004 03:11:48 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_163119926916?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_162963689092?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - Van Halen represents everything I hate about "pop-metal" bands to come like Poison and Warrant, but somehow I still love them after all these years. They made no pretense. They never tried to be Led Zeppelin, they never tried to be Black Sabbath. They... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~162963689092 Thu, 25 Nov 2004 14:47:24 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_162963689092?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_157994159748?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - Oh, mother, tell your children not to buy this CD. Sure, it's only $6 at Wal-Mart, and it features some of the best songs of the 60's by one of that era's best bands, The Animals. "House Of The Rising Sun" is here, along with "We Gotta Get Out Of This... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~157994159748 Mon, 11 Oct 2004 00:30:43 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_157994159748?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_157934128772?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - "So I heard it's like Jay and Silent Bob with zombies, is that right?" Rob asks me earlier today. "No," I told him. "It's more like Dante and Randal with Zombies." Shaun is a 29-year old Englishman with absolutely zero ambition.

Kennedy is an old black man. He resides in a nursing home in Texas with the Lone Ranger and Elvis Presley. All except his brain, which resides in a jar in Washington, D.C. hooked to a battery.

It stated that M. Night Shyamalan had blown his load in his first movie, and that the further into the barrel he scraped, the progressively worse each new movie would be. It held true through Unbreakable, which was OK but... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~152414490244 Thu, 19 Aug 2004 22:53:15 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_152414490244?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_152132226692?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - I'm not quite sure what [digipak] means but this is the only entry epinoins has for Drag It Up, so I'll review it here. If it's the wrong place, deal with it. I'll move it when they add the right one. "11 years in," says Old 97's... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~152132226692 Tue, 17 Aug 2004 22:37:26 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_152132226692?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_149862321796?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - In the interest of fairness, I have divided this review into two parts. The first will be a review of the film I, Robot as an action/sci-fi summer blockbuster. The second half will be a review of I, Robot as a film based on Isaac Asimov's... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~149862321796 Sun, 1 Aug 2004 00:24:14 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_149862321796?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_147077566084?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - Hitchhike To Rhome was the first release from Texas' Old 97's, establishing them as one of "alt. country's" best acts. Now, before the word "country" scares you off, clear your head of Brooks & Dunn and Toby Keith. Think instead of Hank... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~147077566084 Fri, 9 Jul 2004 23:57:18 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_147077566084?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_146110385796?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - There was a certain aura about Guns N' Roses that I felt for the first six months after my initial exposure to them. It was gritty, raw, uncompromising, and slick. It smelled all at once like the gutter, whiskey, cigarettes, and danger. I reveled it in... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~146110385796 Fri, 2 Jul 2004 21:35:43 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_146110385796?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_145472720516?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - "So you've been to school for a year or two and you know you've seen it all." So begins "Holiday In Cambodia", which may be the most recognized song in the Dead Kennedys' catalogue, and it's one of the most applicable lines in their career.

It seems the well-known author has upset an aspiring writer from Mississippi by plagarizing one of his stories. At least, that's what the author from Mississippi, one Mr. Jonh Shooter, claims. He's very upset about it.

I'm sure I'll be posting a review of the film as soon as I see it. Something tells me it... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~144845016708 Wed, 23 Jun 2004 01:01:11 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_144845016708?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_143466532484?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - The problem with releasing a "greatest hits" collection by a band with as fanatical a following as the Misfits is that they already own everything the band ever did - and then some, usually. nevertheless, Glenn Danzig, former Misfits frontman, attempted... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~143466532484 Sun, 13 Jun 2004 21:06:20 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_143466532484?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_142676823684?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - I saw a commercial a few years back for The Sims and I was intrigued. Play god, the ad told me. Control the lives of innocent people. Meddle in their affairs. That's not necessarily the words used in the ad, mind you, that's just what my own mind... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~142676823684 Sat, 5 Jun 2004 16:38:39 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_142676823684?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_142609124996?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hellfudge - I've heard it said more than once that Fables of The Reconstruction is the last album most new R.E.M. fans get into, but that it often ends up becoming their favorite. That's certainly true in my case. I have two theories on this.
