I hope Rob, even though he released the "be-all of White Zombie releases" Let Sleeping Corpses Lie a couple years ago, end up releasing some more of there unreleased songs someday, like Star Slammer, which is prob my fav of the unreleases.

Wait!!! How old is your mom??? And, is she happily married?

She hit her 40s now dude (don't know your age), but no she isn't married.

CC my new dad? Think of the a**hole remarks and sarcasm in that house. Atleast we would prob own all of the Criterion Collection.

And back to White Zombie, I believe Astro Creep is the cd I have bought the most throughout my 22 years of life (3 times. 1st cd was played until it skipped alot. 2nd cd was damaged. Still have my 3rd playing clearly.)

Way to bring it back to the Criterion Collection, CG.

I'll PM you about the "me being your future father" details. I'll be 33 in December, so the ball is in your mother's court now. Heck, I'll even take you to the park so we can toss around a baseball or football.

Cool, a dad.

BTW, are you a fan of White Zombie, or was this conversation just for how awesome I was at 7 years old?

No, like many others, I'm sure, I became a White Zombie fan the night "Thunder Kiss '65" premiered on Headbanger's Ball. I grabbed that album on cassette. Then, I went back and picked up "Make Them Die Slowly" on CD.

And you at age 7 has nothing on me at age 10.

I'll be in later to tuck you in.

Was you doing drugs at 10?......................I wasn't, I was just asking.

You don't own the super rare Soul-Crusher album do you? Prob not, just asking. I haven't found anybody yet that does.

Can you read me a story before I go to bed? Joaquin Phoenix is on Letterman tonight, so can I stay up to watch that on a school night?

Geez...I've got almost 20 years on CC...Guess I can be your Grandpa.

I'll bring you Ovaltine and fig bars and you can wipe the drool off my chin.

"Golly...I can remember back when LBJ was in office and we used to watch the old B & W Zenith in your Paws den...ah...those were the days!"

Nope, no drugs or alcohol for me, son. I won't be the a$$ to you that my father was to me.

And no, I don't own the album. Although, I did download the whole "Let Sleeping Corpses Lie" box set.

PS... I don't have a problem with you staying up as long as your mother doesn't.

PPS... enjoy these posts while you can... before they're all deleted.

Sure, I'm into a little role-playing sometimes, too.

Yes, rkish, CC, and CG in the same house? We could double the Criterion Collection. We could do so many activities!

The funniest part is when the people that don't frequent here daily come back in here and are like, "what the he11!!! I have to read through pages of stupid banter!!!"

There's always, at least, one.

Yeah, there is usually one of them a week. Some of them act like they don't post here because of me or someone else's off-topic posts. But don't you think if there was more people here to talk about Criterion, we won't run out of things to talk about.

I see our off-topic posts as keeping the thread's blood pumping until the 3 days a month when this forum is actually in use for news:

1. Newsletter day
2. Announcement day
3. usually a day when a rumor is leaked/or reviews

The other days, we just keep the thread alive IMO.

Every now and then I throw out some red meat to get CG all riled up. Usually mentioning Spielberg, Michael Bay, Kurosawa, Wes Anderson or ripping into Godard will suffice.

Thank you.

Or stay off-topic for a little,

Rob Zombie's next flick is a film about witches called The Lords of Salem. Wonder if Sheri Moon is going to be in it?

To make this post relevant, I did watch Solaris for the first time tonight. Amazing, frustrating film, and, like Andrei Rublev, I will no doubt appreciate it more in a second viewing on BD.

But now, to pressing matters:

I won't believe that your mom is this fantastic until I see a picture of her. And by fantastic I obviously mean:

1. In her 40s: I don't like categorizing women, but time and again this turns out to be my favorite decade...

2. Not married: I do have ethical standards, and it would take a fair amount of convincing (> 10 minutes worth) to get me to violate them. Therefore, this is a valuable timesaver.

3. Listens to music like White Zombie: It's always nice to have common interests, no? And how often do you match up in rock music?

I found this to be very interesting, apparently Godard is helping some guy out with some legal trouble that he got into because of illegal downloading. Link.
