With what......yupscum SKELETON POWER? Haha, all you chicks will look and speak like Ann Coulter in 5 years, on the stremf. Someone link to the "stickers with Calvin pissing" thread, there are some highly apposite comments there re: your men. See, stuff like this Trixie culture thing is a challenge to me, because it's tough to find a watertight diss for something that's dissworthy simply on common sense.....like wearing a band shirt of the band youre seeing that night......there's no scientific or logical or ethical explanation why it's lame, but it just is, and everyone knows it.....but there's that one kid that doesn't know any better.....he did it last week, and when people clown he will be batshit enough to try to make a stand about 'why shouldn't you wear band shirts to the band's show? are you elitists?'......it's like that with that Trixie site.....constructing a diss on grounds of corniness isnt even worth the time cuz they're yupscum-impregnable.......here's one anyway......Trixie's are the kind of people that have made this phone call: "Hello? Mitsubishi? Ad department, please.........Hello? Yes, I just saw that commercial with the young people grooving and singing along in the car. I need to know what that song is!"

Do we know why the book had to be set in Chicago? Because it was too English?

I just double checked how old Rob is supposed to be in the book. 35?

halfway through, this is so much better than the movie (or rather my memory of the movie).

considering the lack of acting prowess among the major players, it somehow elevated itself to adequacy.

I just watched the Other Music documentary last weekend, don’t know if I can watch something like this.

there's an Other Music doc? how was it?

Did you shop at Other Music?

Yep

Then you should definitely watch it.http://www.othermusicdocumentary.com/
― ABBA O RLY? (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 14 September 2020 18:12 (three years ago) link
Best thing about it is, most of it takes place inside the store. Other good thing is that any well-known people that are interviewed were all regular customers.

Finally saw this last night. I kinda avoided it as I too read the book and kinda tossed it down as I thought in the end the main character was a such dick. While I liked the music nods, I never checked out the movie.
The love story is still pretty much nerd fantasy land, but the scenes in the store and the nods to 90s Chicago was pretty fun. And the Cusacks are always fun to see act together.
Now that it 20 years on, I did think Tim Robbins character was really hilarious and kinda caught something in some hipsters of that era well. They should have somehow had a scene where it crawled across his shelves and you could see his CD collection. You know that dude would have some Rusted Root.

I haven’t seen this in several years, but seeing it as a teenager vs. seeing it mid 20’s vs. seeing it at 30 was an interesting evolution in perspective. It still remained good in my eyes but for different reasons along the course. I’m roughly the age of Cusack in the film now. Hesitant to revisit.

John Cusack was extremely well cast in this film. He is the most believable character by a long way.
