MAD POLL, LOST YER WAY – ILM Artist Poll #16 – The Rolling Stones RESULTS THREAD

I can see that you're 50 years old. I don't want your ID.

No Use in Dying

You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes you might find a good price on some tube socks. Three pairs for a dollar!

I Just Wanna See His Face (through my cataracts)

drooping t'n'a

Turn on the Diaper

Sister Metamucil

Undercover (of the Bedpan)

One Hit (To the Small of the Back)

Respirator Blues

I don't want my trousers to fall down

speaking of old dudes who are off their game, i finally checked out that scorsese "shine a light" thing.

Oh man, checked that soundtrack out of the library, and I put it straight to Loving Cup because that's just one of my favorite Stones songs and I was expecting it to be a pretty straightforward live rendition. Not too good there, from either Mick or Jack White,.

the collaborations are kinda yuk (Christina Aguilera wtf), but I enjoyed it for the most part.

I watched the Xtina version on youtube once just to see if she had to sing about water rats.

it was just so WEIRD

well she's known to like a deep cut

rolling stones cover band performing in front of rolling stones cover audience. why in god's name anyone would want to watch this...

i remember pointedly ignoring it at the time and wish i could unsee it.

(that said, the dvd bonus "featurette" is k-grebt. buncha grizzled musicians just playing together and finding out what happens. could watch weeks' worth of that. funny that performance footage is zzzz and rehearsal footage is must-watch.)

i actually really enjoyed this movie.

True confession: I paid to see it in IMAX, and walked out grinning like a big dork.

I did not expect to enjoy it as much as I did.

did anyone else see the imax steel wheels tour film back in the day? i saw it for my 12th birthday of all things. things got all psychedelic on "2000 Light Years" iirc.

I thought things got psychedelic much earlier with Mick's shirts.

ha, yeah, picture that 4 stories tall. his belly button is bigger than your face!

Lol I guess I got off lightly with Shine A Light...Mick was for the most part well-covered, and costume wise was pretty restrained except maybe a jacket made of feathers? and a spangly kind of top. memory's kinda dim now

i think i may have, but i'm not really sure since both the stones and imax were staples of my youth

yeah I saw that... think I was about the same age, and it was the first time I realized that the Stones sang the Tour of Duty theme song (Paint it Black).

haha i kind of want to re-do the tracks poll results with all the song titles replaced by "Tour of Duty theme song" and "inspiration for the Whoopi Goldberg film of the same name" and "as covered by Guns N Roses in the end credits of Interview With The Vampire"

"Waterskiing Song From Apocalypse Now"

"in every Scorsese movie ever"

i was kind of amazed when i saw The Departed and he used "Gimme Shelter" TWICE, like he really just has no self control anymore

He used two versions of it in Casino. Never did find out the origin of the first one, but it sounds vaguely 80s/90s.

this! this is why i bristle at wes anderson and his attempted kinks abuse.

I saw that Imax/Steel Wheels thing in Toronto - we were crammed all the way to the front left of the theatre, it was like it was projected on the side of an inverted pyramid!

you were between a rock and a hard place

this! this is why i bristle at wes anderson and his attempted kinks abuse.

at least he uses DIFFERENT. KINKS. SONGS. IN. EACH. MOVIE.

it it national Wes Anderson month or something? i swear his name crops up in almost every thread I read lately

he's getting knighted.

I really hate the way Wes Anderson uses classic rock in his movies. Scorcese, he's ok.

I liked how in the behind the scenes footage on the Rushmore dvd, you could hear his crew listening to the Faces between setups.

Anderson used up all his good music ideas on Bottle Rocket ("Alone Again Or") and Rushmore ("A Quick One, While He's Away"). Every other movie of his has been an exercise in awkward shoehorning.

point taken, but it's still abusive imo
get offa my cloud, wes anderson

i liked the bowie covers in the life aquatic

and elliott smith in the royal tenenbaums

woah contenderizer likes wes anderson movies? posts very much out of character right there

Best use of music by Wes Anderson: the Charlie Brown Christmas song in Royal Tenenbaums (Alone Again Or and A Quick One are close runner-ups)

1. "I Am Waiting," Rushmore
2. "Making Time," Rushmore
3. "Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard," The Royal Tennenbaums
4. "A Quick One While He's Away," Rushmore
5. "These Days," The Royal Tennenbaums

Probably forgetting something.

Call that a tie at the top.

anderson uses music wonderfully in all his films you all suck
