T. Rex: The Slider

Well, carefree, irresistible, over the top, unbridled (the various "Baby Boomerang," "Rock On," "Telegram Sam," "Thunderwing," "Cadillac," "Chariot Choogie," "Rabbit Fighter) and then there are those moments... Those of the title track, those of "Mystic Lady," those of the devastating melody of "Spaceball Ricochet," and those of an eternal song like "Ballroom of Mars," a piece I can't describe... The atmosphere, Bolan's voice, his interpretation... Beautiful disco.

    I've never compared them, I like both more or less equally. "Ballroom of Mars," as I mentioned, is fabulous.

Just enough, yet definitely superior to the terrible American remake. There are good atmospheres and some rather unsettling scenes. Then there's the hilarious pair of angry ghost mom and son, especially the little one. Salvageable.

The infuriating mother-son duo is always lovable, but even they can't save this horrible film, one of the dreadful monstrosities in the history of cinema, American and beyond. A completely useless remake of a film that was barely acceptable on its own, it stands out for its astonishing banality and total absence of even mildly unsettling scenes. Unwatchable actors (aside from the ghost couple, perhaps), deplorable screenplay and direction. Abysmal.

Great blend of Action-Movie and war film, Stallone delivers one of the rare convincing performances of his career, with a plot that is far from thin and trivial. A nice film, therefore, but starting from the second chapter the saga will sink, sliding into the banal and "tamarro".

    Are you aware that this is the first case of Personal Fake, or, in Latin terms, Fake ad Personam???
  • hjhhjij

    No, I'm not that lucky. There have been others, although they date back to before my enrollment, like the legendary Encilopedia Pirletti Vs. Enciclopedia Poletti.
  • pana

  • hjhhjij

    I'm happy anyway, it's not something everyone gets to have, even if just for a few hours, a private fake.
  • pana

    this is true. Do you think your new (but already old) fake will ever make it to the Walk of Fake alongside people like Trentavoltemegl?
  • hjhhjij
    9 oct 12
    Well, it deserves a little spot; I will treasure it intensely, after all, we cared for each other, even if it lasted such a short time.
  • pana

    a DeBaserian old-timer might compile this little list and publish it as an editorial: on that day the Editors will restore all the selected Fakes for 24 hours, and that day will be celebrated every year as the Fake Festival! If this were to happen, I suggest including that lovable character (who is still active, by the way) who called me a piece of shit for giving a 4/5 to AC/DC, but above all the various fake destroidi like Katharsys and their offshoots versus the new generation communist fakes for a titanic showdown.
  • hjhhjij
    9 oct 12
    Undoubtedly, it’s an interesting idea. There used to be Metallarobionico (a historical user of Debaser) who made a list of human cases. He could have taken care of the Walk of Fake, but it’s been a while since he was last seen.
  • pana

  • pana

    On his main page, there are some "epic" phrases, but I haven't found any actual lists of "Human Cases."
  • hjhhjij
    10 oct 12
    Then I'll look for it in that list :)

    Also because I could confuse myself with another user, I was back then just an "external."

    So you were introduced to DeBaser really at a young age! Let me ask you two questions:
    1) Back then, did you already know (like you do now) all the cultural baggage that L'Uomo has offered us?
    2) Why did you choose your nickname?
  • hjhhjij
    10 oct 12
    I found out about it in 2007 at the age of 14 ;) So: 1) Obviously (I see my P.F. has made a convert :D). Jokes aside, when I discovered the music site in 2007, I didn't understand a thing; in 2010 when I registered, I wasn't much better off, and even now I still have a long way to go to grasp all the cultural baggage that mankind has to offer :D 2) I clicked randomly on the keyboard because I'm too lazy to come up with a nickname and I didn't want to register with names like "Peter Hammill," "Tony Banks," etc.

Completely nonsensical but extremely funny, practically a scenario where Gilliam could unleash his visionary creativity. Depp and Del Toro are wildly eccentric; after all, the same Thompson/Raoul Duke was not exactly sane. Grotesque and hilarious characters and situations, along with an outstanding soundtrack (just to name a few: "Combination of the Two" by Big Brother at the beginning and end of the film, "Somebody to Love" and "White Rabbit" - the latter used wonderfully - by Jefferson Airplane, and "Stuck Inside" by Dylan). Awesome.

The Beatles: Help!
15 mar 18
The album with which the Beatles truly begin to win me over, more mature and showcasing their ever-growing ability to write perfect pop melodies. Here I find a particularly inspired Lennon ("Help!", "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away," and "It's Only Love" standing out, but he doesn't miss a beat on this album) and two stunning contributions from Harrison ("I Need You" especially). And McCartney? McCartney has the two minutes of eternal melodic perfection in "Yesterday" (virtually his first solo effort by the end), throw them away. Not that his other songs are bad, mind you (I love "I Just Seen a Face"). If the album has a downside, it's the Beatles as cover artists, which I don't really love, but even here, their "Dizzy Miss Lizzy" doesn't bother me this time.

    I start with Rubber Soul with them, for goodness' sake, an interesting album but it doesn’t really light up my day. Girl above all, followed closely by Yesterday. Michelle has always been hated because played a thousand times on the flute in elementary school... from the next album it will surely be better.

    I like it too, thanks to the cover scarred by the Residents :D Then hey, I don't really like those records as much as the ones from '65-'69, but I'm the only one in the world so that's fine ahahhaha (and they're not without gems, of course).

    Fifth album of their career, second "hit" to break away from r'n'r, shuffle and rockabilly and become the state of the art in pop. The first hit had come with the third "Hard Day's Night," then the pause of the fourth "For Sale," and here a new acceleration with three or four memorable tracks. Starting from the sixth album "Rubber Soul," they would unleash a deadly barrage of creativity and talent in massive doses for four magical years, until their breakup.

    And I thought I was being "bad" with them considering "Help!" as the beginning of their best, here there are already two Rubber Soul fans XD

Great album, the best of the BiGis after "Odessa." I adore songs like "In the Summer of His Years," "Idea," and "I Started a Joke," but overall there's a string of beautiful pop songs and inspired melodies that stick in your head, following one after another with admirable continuity, with very rare "minor" or poorly executed moments. Truly excellent.
