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!

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

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.
― Raymond Dubious Davies (C. Grisso/McCain), Thursday, 12 April 2012 03:10 (twelve years ago) link
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.

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)
― THE SPACEMENT TAPES (loves laboured breathing), Thursday, 12 April 2012 04:44 (twelve years ago) link
1. "I Am Waiting," Rushmore2. "Making Time," Rushmore3. "Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard," The Royal Tennenbaums4. "A Quick One While He's Away," Rushmore5. "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
― flesh, the devil, and a wolf (wolf) (amateurist), Thursday, 12 April 2012 20:48 (twelve years ago) link
although yes "i am waiting" is the best. i love that movie (and song) so much.
wes anderson is great. now can he please gtfo of this awesome Stones thread.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 12 April 2012 20:49 (twelve years ago) link
can't believe so few folks voted for "hand of fate." that's a great song. been stuck in my head all day.

btw they really are the best band ever.
I really wish I'd thought more about voting for Monkey Man and Let It Bleed. Just because I would feel better about my ballot. And I wish I hadn't been so reluctant to show love for my favorite Exile tracks. I coulda/shoulda made Torn and Frayed my #1.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 12 April 2012 21:15 (twelve years ago) link
Okay, so with amateurist's ballot plus everyone's thoughtful reconsideration itt clearly "Sway" is #2

i really never would've guessed before this whole thing started that "Sway" was widely considered the best song on Sticky Fingers

ILM's had a pretty strong cult of Sway for a while now

Crashing this thread to post the Charlie-cam version of "Monkey Man." This would have been my #1 pick (then "Paint It Black", then "Sway")
Anyway, here's Charlie. This is one of my most favorite things ever.

"worried about you" is said to have been a black and blue outtake. don't know of any others.
― BEMORE SUPER FABBY (contenderizer), Friday, 13 April 2012 20:05 (twelve years ago) link
"worried about" you timing adds up given that it's Wayne Perkins on the solo, who also plays on "hand of fate"
will have to give b&b another try but on the face of it it's tattoo you in a walk
