Yes, well, let's start by respecting a great author (who is already a classic) by not proposing brief synopses with commentary worthy only of appearing on the pages of "Everything (and less)," please.

François Ozon 8 donne e un mistero

"5x2" follows this (and in the middle, there is also "Swimming Pool," which is the last truly decent thing I've seen him create). Ozon has talent but is also inconsistent and a bit too "effect-driven." Here, for me, he plays with irony by mixing genres, making it disconnected from everything he references (which can be a strength or a weakness, a choice for the individual, but it doesn't convince me, especially when he tries to measure himself against "Parole, parole, parole..." by Resnais). The feature films I prefer are philologically monolithic, namely "Gocce d'acqua su pietre roventi" (based on a play by Fassbinder), with a wonderful reinterpretation in a 70s aesthetic, and "Sotto la sabbia," the absolute best.

Well, little Chinese guy, it seems exaggerated just as much as the skillful one that's stuck to him. The guy spins around at almost six foot three. He's nice, though; I talked to him a bit during their Italian tour two years ago since there were only a handful of us in front of the stage during the opener's performance (a Scottish or Irish punkabilly duo, whose name I don't even remember), and he told me that, as a drummer, he was really improvised since they drew lots at the last minute between him and Gordon (both wanted to be bass players since they were the most inept, musically speaking, but someone had to be behind the drums) and it fell to him.

But weren't they supposed to move it to Transilavania live in Milan?! I was there a couple of years ago, the last time (Meshuggah, Opeth, Dredg triple bill, in about 3 months) and I don't remember the acoustics being shit. The horrible thing was that bright panel that hung down in front of the stage (from a really low ceiling) that throughout the performances was a total nuisance, advertising the upcoming concerts at the venue. A real slap in the face!!!

Yes, you are right, Hokuto no...but the pronunciation was still "tagu boi"...and there was also a "no boi no crai"...and some other jappa stuff.

"We are fight...fight in the Nineties, Nineties"...followed by a series of high poetry verses from Japan...and in the middle pops up a "tagu boi, tagu boi"....but the best part was the ballad at the end (referring to Okuto-no Ken, of course).
