By the way, Racer X is also the name of one of the best shooters for Sega Mega Drive, does anyone remember it? In Japanese, it was called Ex Ranza, well, sorry for going off-topic but I wanted to mention it :-)

Distant memories of these Racer X, maybe from the first two albums, people spoke well of them but I can't remember a single note!

oh yes, zero in conduct, you can find old films in the public domain, the economic rights expire after seventy years, paradoxically if you download them from the mule, you wouldn't even be liable! On Google Video, by the way, you can also find the film that inspired (I presume) your nickname. The other day I watched Freaks :-)

But for heaven's sake, I really condemn the attitudes you mentioned just as much! It's just that I also don't like falling into the reverse trap. If it's wrong for people who don't understand/listen to/know music to judge you negatively for your tastes, it's equally wrong to judge negatively those who don't understand/listen to/know music for their lack of listening. Both seem to me to be rather simplistic forms of prejudice.

I completely agree with you, you know-it-all. Back in middle school, we had listening sessions, and I still remember when we listened to a piece by Debussy. But do you know what assignment they gave for music at my girlfriend's niece's middle school? To define progressive rock, rock 'n' roll, and psychedelic rock! For goodness' sake, what an awesome assignment, but what the hell is it? School of Rock!

I really appreciated the review and the first part of the discussion, a bit less the second. Leave your fellow sorcini or those who don’t know Lou Reed in peace (I completely believe there are people who don’t know him, and I’d say there’s no reason to raise a scandal). Sorry for the intervention, but I can’t stand the latent sense of superiority towards the "musically unilluminated" that has been creeping into the recent comments. Grasshopper, on the other hand, keep up the good work with the reviews; you’re gradually pushing me to approach classical music seriously. I’ll also leave a rating, even though it’s not my usual practice. Best regards.

I caught it yesterday on the sly; I think I'm the only one who sees a certain dark humor in it (or is it my stumbling English that made me read some lines that way?). God, the final chase with the freaks crawling under the train cars is truly something... I echo everyone who highlighted the horror component of the film, as well as Fidia, who rightly pointed out the bold ambiguity of the movie that, after presenting the freaks as poor victims of the prejudices of "normal" people, has the courage to show their cruel and once again human, all too human side.

Well Puni, I feel compelled to intervene; I would feel like shit like Aeneas just for the need to copy even a single sentence when expressing my thoughts. I may be proud, but I doubt that such a flaw/quality hinders the achievement of goals in life, and perhaps the exact opposite is true. Then, I’d like to remind you, as I did before, that regardless of your opinions on the matter, quoting others' sentences and passing them off as your own without indicating the source is illegitimate, and therefore the editors are absolutely right to include that disclaimer that addresses the infringements of copyright that your writings concretize. So I find it absurd to be adamant about them and play the victim. Regards.
