I honestly can't remember how I feel about X. I still think their side project, The Knitters, had the best title for a record, though: Poor Little Critter On The Road.

I think that's a horrible title. It reminds me of when Rick Veitch had a homeless man's dog run over by a car in one of his Swamp Thing issues.

A lot of country-bluegrass is full of grim subject matter rendered in cheerful major keys and peppy tempos. And even the name "The Knitters" is a nod to legendary folk groups like The Weavers and their fondness for murder ballads and the like.

The meaning of my surname is uncertain, but it is thought either to mean "marrow" or "blackbird". I prefer the latter.

The best way to get your loved one in the mood is to crank up Richard Wagner in the car on the drive home and serenade them with several choruses of "Kill The Wabbit," et al.

A few years ago, I reviewed Art Davis' only Bugs Bunny cartoon, 1949's "Bowery Bugs", on IMdB. If you're curious to read it, my IMdB ID was phoenix2rachelsummers.

I've done several reviews for IMDb, mostly for offbeat TV shows. My review for the TV series BeastMaster is probably my favorite, but only four out of nine people found it useful. frown

I know the feeling, Rocky. I was very disappointed at the indifferent reception to my reviews of Dario Argento movies. frown

On the other hand, all 19 people who rated my review for the late '80s/early '90s Superboy series found it useful. I now own season one on DVD and still think John Haymes Newton is the sexiest actor ever to play the role.

You should review the '90s Batman animated series. I also like X-Men Evolution to this day because I think the writing was excellent.

I'm sure I saw an episode or two of that, but I really don't care for Batman, so I really couldn't do a good review of it. shrug

I only have had one experience on imdb and it was for reviewing the movie Memento. I speculated on what the ending really meant and you think I was proclaiming sections of Mein Kampf by the reception. Apparently there was a 'big dog' there posting with his own views of the movie who basically got everyone to go along with them, and anyone with opposing views had to be put in place.

Yeesh. Being a mature adult, I watched and waited and eventually had my ruthless, merciless revenge. The DVD has an interview with director Chris Nolan that basically negated that posters theory (which was pretty kooky iirc). I was more than happy to point this out two years later though I did hold back the insults I had prepared.

I had some bad experiences there. Three years before the Transformers movie came out, I innocently suggested that they should involve a couple writers of the original TV show. One jerk replied that "washed-up TV writers" had no place on the Transformers movie, and that "we should settle for what we're given."

Obviously, millions of people agreed with this idiot, because the movies have been very lucrative even though they're absolut crap.
