    Yeah, so do I. Maths is always fun :( Chilling out a bit now and listening to some Shining (Swedish one, not Norwegian :P)

    Cool ;)

    You know, I was listening to the Norwegian Shining not so long ago and they're actually pretty cool

    Busy on the forum this evening ;) How's everyone?

    It's amazing the amount of posters who come out of the woodwork when there's some playground squabbling to be done. There's f*cking tumbleweed blowing through here the rest of the time. :pac:

    Not really my thing. Their stuff kept popping up on last.fm when I was listening to the SDBM radio.

    Still, not as bad as the electronic band/thing called Mayhem that'd pop up when I was listening to the black metal one.

    The bickering gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling.

    Ah, I think the place buzzes a lot more than other music forums around here Passenger, so we got that going for us.

    She's good alright

    You know, I have Brain Salad Surgery around somewhere and I know I've listened to it plenty but for the life of me can't remember it :o must give it a refresher listen at some point. Still listening to Lynch. at the moment ;)

    on a Giger related note, you hear they're going making a Prometheus 2?

    Been meaning to give the original one a gander. It had a mixed reception.

    Found the first a massive disappointment. The bones for a good film were there but it didn't deliver.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    I enjoyed it, but it's a mess. Afterwards, reading about some of the changes they made to the script and scenes that were cut, you wonder what the hell they were thinking. Worth a look, but just messy as hell and doesn't make a whole lick of sense.

    Yeah read a cracked article (I think) about stuff they left out and really helps make sense of it

    Bit of a scrap always peaks the interest of the lurkers (like me) tbh :P

    I used to post a lot in this forum (as max power) but I rarely post anymore.

    I find it amazing that they decided to take out so much, because it could hardly be the aim for them to edit the movie in such a way that it makes less sense.

    It's just downright frustrating to see a film that had so much potential go down the drain.

    Hey Max! ;)

    Kinda makes you wonder what other posters who've closed their accounts might still be lurking around?

    Just did a quick search and can't find anything. Any chance of a link?

    I remember leaving the cinema and being extremely pissed off that I had paid money for it. Even bought popcorn ffs. I really wanted to like it but there was just too much wrong with it. Stringer Bell in space should have been a recipe for success.

    TONY IOMMI: 'HYDE PARK COULD BE SABBATH'S LAST GIG'
    "It could be the last ever Sabbath show, I don't want it to be, but there's nothing really planned touring-wise after that show, so for all we know that could be it really. To be honest I don't want to be touring to this extent too much longer, because it makes me feel so bad.”
