"Because you, on the other hand, knew Albini better, right? You had anal interactions, you spent Sunday afternoons talking about this and that.. the art of rhetoric holds no secrets for you, huh? Of course, with these arguments you've given me a tough lesson I won't forget easily!"

"And Steve Albini is sitting in his solid gold mansion in Bel Air": you've really nailed the character. It's like saying that Brahms made reggae. But the best part is that you keep insisting: you say something ridiculous like "the Slint commercialized by MTV by the producer (Albini)" and I explain to you that Albini, in addition to making extreme music, has an approach where the records he produces sound almost live and you still persist! Genius.

Can you imagine vampire rodents, bark psychosis, labradford, god machine, slint, and built to spill, and especially THE SWANS (T H E S W A N S!!) on MTV in heavy rotation? Damn, can you picture the Swans in the afternoon on MTV? "Hi, I'm Ilary and I'm 14 years old." "Hi Ilary, what song do you want?" "I’d like to dedicate RAPING A SLAVE to my boyfriend, do you have it because I like it too much? Hi Simo tvtbb!" Ahahahah!

Oh my God, the Swans, the Labradford, the Dirty Three, Americanized by MTV? I mean, the Swans!! Damn, this is like historic. Lord, if only you knew half of them! Anyway, about Steve Albini, who you clearly don't know: I mentioned him because as a producer (among many, the Slint that you referred to, which in your opinion would be turned into commercial bands under his hands) is not only the author of some of the loudest records ever, but as a producer he is known for almost just miking the bands, leaving the sound "pure." But of course you don't know this, and you're talking nonsense.

Lord, but you never stop shooting off nonsense, do you? "Slint, what you listen to, is like that because it meets the tastes of the production, which, if there’s something wrong, doesn’t hesitate to change it." After this gem, I imagine you have no clue who Steve Albini is, right?

"But damn it, do you make your lists by looking at others or do you have your own tastes?" The first one you mentioned was muffins, but it wouldn’t be so bad if you didn’t walk around with that haughty tone. I mean, for laughs, we could all do that: one person makes a list of the most important films according to the American Film Institute, another uses Morandini’s list, someone else Mereghetti’s (oh no, that’s already Poletti), one from IMDb (the one who knows the least), someone else Scaruffi’s, and another Ghezzi’s, which is hard to understand, and then we have a list war? Fun, useful, and interesting, right? Because why talk about the films you personally find the most beautiful: let’s talk about the most important ones! Everyone discussing analog editing, the mother’s eye, and the stroller!

"Discreet" referred to Weir's film! Look, I'm not the one going around bothering others; I like discussing these nonsense topics, but I don't have your arrogance. The most important and the "best" are not synonyms; for example, the birth of a nation or Susanna, important, indeed fundamental as you may wish (I know very well) are just crap when revisited today, 2007 A.D. Clear?

Oh, but mine is the message above yours, how can you try to twist something to your liking when it’s written an inch above? Did I say modest? No, I said discreet, and I specified that without going too far, the same director has done much better. And the same argument applies to Moretti, who cannot appear on a list of the top one hundred most important films in history. You talk about serious rankings, about importance (and by the way, the concept of importance is useless; if someone is passionate about cinema, they want to know about beautiful films, not a list of important films they could find anywhere, or do you really think you need to come up with names like Resnais, Dziga Vertov, or Griffith so that they aren’t recognized?) and you include two films like those. Realize it.

"In my opinion, there’s a LOT to say here, especially if you judge Von Trier better than Chaplin." Damn Polè, do you ever stop talking nonsense? If you look at the list of directors, Chaplin is well ahead of Von Trier; it’s about films, not the director. And you haven't seen The Kingdom, which is something extraordinary, yet you come to talk about seriousness when you mention importance and put films like Moretti's or a decent film like The Truman Show (Weir himself has directed much better)?
