I didn't say they spray it on ME. I like the Dinosauri; if you check the reviews of their albums on this site, you'll almost always find my comments. I've been listening to them since I was 14. It's just that I know Fidia's taste a bit: if I remember correctly, he likes the Cure from the trilogy, the Sorelle della Misericordia, Katatonia... maybe I'm wrong, for heaven's sake, but on paper the Dinosauri have all the characteristics to make him throw away the Magnesia San Pellegrino forever. Then maybe he'll come back here, call me an idiot, and it turns out Mascis is his favorite artist. :)))

@Fidia: don't listen to Gustavo!! 9 out of 10 Little Dinosaurs would make you beat the world record for anal spraying! :))

I confess I only read the review and not the comments: I hope I’m not resurrecting issues and discussions that have already been addressed and concluded. So, that which you call “stylistic exercise” works for me, indeed it works wonderfully, but for other works. If one decides to make a film based on a comic that, like in this case, makes its content and themes its strong point, then mere visual pleasure is no longer enough for me. It might suffice for, say, “Spawn,” but not for Watchmen. More generally, I believe there are limits to the “rendering” of a literary work on film. To give another somewhat irrelevant example, let’s think about The Lord of the Rings: the result, in my opinion, is fairly good when considered as a standalone product, but insufficient in terms of the cinematic adaptation of the original work. And that’s not because Jackson is an idiot, but simply because there was no other way than to work through “subtraction.” That said, dear Amev, have you happened to see the film inspired by “Kyashan”?!

You can delete the photo, but not the memories... I just want you to know that I still keep your picture dressed as a pirate at the Oleggio carnival in '92 on my bedside table, between the autograph of Milli Vanilli and the Michelangelo figurine from the Turtles.

Watched it last night. I don’t think I liked it. I keep wondering what the point is of bringing to the screen books/comics that "physiologically" aren’t suited for a film adaptation... Honestly, I don’t know how much it can be appreciated/understood by those who haven’t read the comic. Special mention for Silky Spectre: great gorgeousness! Rating for the babe (Y)(Y)(Y)(Y)1/2. Note of demerit: the soundtrack... "Hallelujah" during the sex scene is straight out of "The Naked Gun"!! :D

I finally read it. The 5 is definitely confirmed! Well done. :)) Back "in the day," you had the merit of filling in so many gaps in the site's "post" archive, and it was really thanks to some of your reviews that I got into bands like Isis, Pelican, or Cult of Luna (even though they're not exactly among my favorite bands...). I really hope to read you often again! :))

mmm... indeed, I find it quite easy to imagine us glued to our phones calling ACI to complain that "How the hell can you not even put an Autogrill around here?!?" and "Yeah, okay, but how long is the tow truck gonna take?! I mean, I can't just stand here all day, right?!??". And anyway: no way, I didn't say anything... I was a total coward! :((! At a certain point, I was outside the place smoking in a jacket and a crew neck sweater, shaking like a leaf. He comes out and finds a corner to smoke a little joint all by himself in a pure acrylic 200% striped yellow and purple t-shirt: he looked like the good kid from "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory"... Even while I was handing him the money, he seemed more embarrassed than I was! I just couldn't bring myself to bother him!! And then, with my English, it would have taken me ages. We would still be there telling him: "We... wanted to fix... the volume of the battery, because your guitar has broken our balls...". No, no... sorry, damn, but I just couldn't do it!

Alright, we’re changing the plan! Let’s rent some camels, stock up on jerky and magazines with nude women. We’ll load the beasts with beer and liquid nitrogen to keep them cool. Basically, all that’s left of the original plan are flip-flops and shorts. We’ll arrive a few days early, dig some holes in the sand, and ambush the caravans of stoners heading to the only hotel-oasis. We’ll steal their money, drugs, and women, leaving them the magazines with a huffy but ultimately benevolent attitude. Then we’ll head to the hotel, use their reservations, and live the high life... Damn it, with a single post you’ve ruined my vacation!! :DD
