..Adaline looks like a terrible film. sad to see Harrison Ford waste his talent like that. this was just something I observed when I saw its poster while at the cinema to see a far less popular film that I'm sure nobody here has seen nor cares about, Avengers: Age of Ultron. great film. liked it better than the previous Avengers movie, although both certainly fall short of the first one. interestingly, it would seem that Ultron has decided to take a different route in his plan to fight human
haven't posted anything here for a while. figured this was worth posting at least. a couple of weeks ago I got the 3-disc collector's edition of Interstellar. comes in a really nice case with an art book and an authentic IMAX film cell. case 1 - case 2 - case back
[originally published 5/18/14, updated 11/6/14, bumped 1/29/15 because I frigging love The Cure] with the acquisition of the Join the Dots box set, I've pretty much finished off my collection for my favorite band, The Cure. I've got all the studio albums, all the compilations, the remix album, the 1978-2001 B-sides box set, and a few singles. really all I'm missing now are the live albums and DVDs, which I've never had much of an interest in. all of these are the various US pressings except
upon receiving A Taste of Extreme Divinity in the mail today, I've pretty much completed my Hypocrisy collection. I'm still missing some things - like their first three albums which are different in style and just not as good in my opinion, and both versions of the band's horrible attempt at cashing in on the nu-metal craze with Catch 22 - but all of the core albums in the band's discography that display their unique mix of death metal, melody, spacey atmospherics, and lyrical themes obsessed wi
normally I post complete collections, but I'm very quickly running out of those so here's one that's only mostly complete. I'm currently missing the original 2002 version of Nothing, the EP I (which was just reissued last year, but I haven't been able to find it yet), and the Rare Trax compilation. from top to bottom: - Contradictions Collapse (2008 reissue with 4/5 of the None EP as bonus tracks) - Destroy Erase Improve (2008 reissue with the other 1/4 of the None EP as a bonus track,
recently bought up the last few albums I needed and finally finished my collection for one of my top 10 favorite bands of all time. left stack, top to bottom: - Killing Is My Business... and Business Is Good! (1990 pressing which omits "These Boots". might get another copy eventually that includes it.) - Peace Sells... but Who's Buying? - So Far, So Good... So What! - Rust in Peace (one of my favorite albums ever) - Countdown to Extinction - Youthanasia - Hidden Treasures (B-sides/rarities c
I got their new album and completed my collection of their only good ones. nope, I'm not missing any albums at all. third and fourth albums? what third and fourth albums? from top to bottom: - Burn My Eyes - The More Things Change... - Through the Ashes of Empires (US edition with bonus track "Seasons Wither") - The Blackening (2-disc special edition with two bonus cover tracks) - Unto the Locust - Bloodstone & Diamonds no, but seriously, this collection is technically incomplete. yo
everything I hoped it would be and more. definitely met the 2+ years of hype I built for myself around it and definitely the best movie I've seen all year.
not to be outdone, from top to bottom: - The Agony Scene - The Darkest Red - Get Darned (European special edition ft. bonus Bad Religion and Dead Kennedys cover tracks) also owned, but not pictured: - "Devilock" (bonus Misfits cover track for The Darkest Red, bought digitally)
I would've updated this over a month ago when I picked up the new album Siren Charms, but as it turns out, the entire first pressing of the deluxe edition was defective. after a few weeks of waiting, the record label finally offered people corrected replacement discs about a week ago. I received mine in the mail just yesterday. at one point in the past these guys were my favorite band, and this collection is quite possibly the most complete that I own, just slightly ahead of Katatonia - betwee
band just released a new album (their best in years) so it's time to update this. top CD row, left to right: - Weezer (Blue Album) - Pinkerton - Weezer (Green Album) - Maladroit - Make Believe bottom CD row, left to right: - Weezer (Red Album) - Raditude - Hurley (deluxe edition) - Death to False Metal - Everything Will Be Alright in the End also pictured are my Weezer T-shirt (top) and my blue Weezer Snuggie (in the background).

after getting a damaged copy, waiting for a refund, ordering another, waiting an unusually long time for it to be shipped, and then finally getting the final piece needed today, I've completed another discography collection. from top to bottom: - Something Wild (2008 deluxe reissue) - Hatebreeder (2008 deluxe reissue) - Follow the Reaper (US edition) - Hate Crew Deathroll (US edition) - Are You Dead Yet? (US edition) - Blooddrunk (US edition) - Halo of Blood also owned, but not pictured:
so I guess our definition of "controversy" now is "a lot of people talked about a thing"?? I've gotta say, the whole grammar thing is by far the least controversial controversy in the history of BZPower. it felt more like a BZPower fad than it did a controversy, just a bunch of people posting blog entries on the same subject while other people commented on them. unless I missed, like, an entire entry where some kind of fight broke out, all the comments and entries I saw were completely rationa
in casual conversation, forum posts, etc. just try to make it readable, please. and for the love of god, Don't Constantly Type Like This. that's just obnoxious.
welcome back Weezer. Everything Will Be Alright in the End surpassed my expectations and lived up to the hype. best album they've done in at least a decade.
