I correct: "verso" and not "berso".

@Contemplation: You're right about Monk's influence in the '40s, and I can't deny it, but the period when musicians and critics began to take notice of his figure and his weight in jazz is certainly the 1950s, when the foundations were indeed being laid for the future maturation of Monk's iconic myth. A trivial example: it's said that during a reception, he pinned a lettuce leaf to his lapel instead of a flower. Whether it's true or not, I believe everyone can notice an increase in the audience towards Thelonious in the 1950s, even with these very trivial anecdotes.

I listened to The Day That Never Comes. Nice, it sounds like a mix-up of Fade To Black and Orion, based on One. (I should point out that I've never listened to Load, ReLoad, and St. Anger.) Hetfield no longer sings, he just lets out a few little screams.

Hated, hated, and more hated. Forgive my arrogance, but at 14 I never listened to this stuff (though it’s true that I went from Queen to Popol Vuh with the bang of a bomb). Two years ago I bought their greatest hits, and the only noteworthy song (that is: the only one I have a good impression of) is November Rain. I break into a cold sweat every time I'm told to play Don't Cry with the band because I don’t want to! I prefer Industrial-Polka to them.

Poletti, you wrote the review first because I didn’t go to the cinema this month. XD
Well done as always.

Finally, the reviews on Jon Hassel have been increasing in recent months: great review for an absolute masterpiece.

Nice review. The film started with some good ideas, including the choice of subject matter (the legends surrounding the crystal skulls are perhaps the most beautiful in all of South American mythology), but in my opinion it was done too "hastily."
Let's be honest: Ford is no longer a young man. They have masked his physical decline with special effects worthy of Toy Story. Anyway, it's enjoyable; maybe it's because I'm not a fan of the trilogy, but I find it nice for some scenes. Not to the parts with the first three, though.
