The themes of this phase are spite and pain. So let's throw some fuel on those fires, shall we?

The Crow might have been a perfect antihero movie. Michael Wincott is a class A antagonist, and Brandon Lee was perfect in the lead, as a man murdered with his fiancee on the eve of his wedding. He then comes back, exacting vengeance on the killers. Tragically, however, this would be Brandon Lee's final film.

So why recast it, you ask? Pure spite. While we are not spiteful people, harboring only slightly more spite than local saint @BernieParent, our disdain for this actor is white hot. His douchebaggery is well documented, and yet he still continues to find employment. And we'll admit that there seems almost a bit of karmic justice.

In the process, we save Brandon's life. Icing on the cake.

Movie Recast: Alec Baldwin as Eric (The Crow)

As an added bonus, [RANCH] was made four years earlier, so Alec would still be alive for that.

It's going to be an unequivocal piece of shit with Baldwin instead of Lee. But it's worth it to kill him off instead.
I was going to make getting you banned the hill I die on until I read the last sentence. We’re cool now.

You cannot possibly be surprised that someone hates f***ing Floyd. I refuse to believe that.

You know i'm a Zeppelin guy so by default I cant also be a big Floyd guy, but I dont think i've ever heard of anyone hating them, let alone despising them lol.

I mean, how can you hate



Or



Or is that you can acknowledge they had some good songs but overall their not your cup of tea because of their more psychedelic over-indulgent work?

I get it, Roger is whiney sometimes. I don't mind it, mostly because I love Pink Floyd and Roger is right about what he whines about, but yeah

Listen to this stupid f***ing shit.



And this stupid f***ing shit.



But this is the worst. Listen to this stupid f***ing bullshit burnout noise.



I'll be honest, even with all my spite constantly regenerating and overflowing I probably would have been able to just ignore f***ing Floyd like I ignore all other bands who aren't worth a f***. But you know what happened instead? Every other motherf***er I knew tried to convince me to appreciate this shit. "Dude, you have to listen to 'Dark Side of My Balls' again, you just don't get it." F*** off. It's like they couldn't stand to get high without me, that's how irresistible my company is, I guess, based on the number of people who pulled the exact same shit. I never once bothered trying to convince people to listen to the shit I liked, so I'm not sure why they couldn't control themselves and take "F*** no" for an answer. I do know why they trolled me by playing this shit (and f***ing "Touch of F***ing Grey") on the jukebox when we went out - they were all shitheads. No wonder I always got so wasted.

When it comes to picking one of these c***s for the Spite Supergroup, I could have picked either of two, and I'm going to pick the one who actually bothered me second-most, for positional reasons.

tl;dr f*** Floyd.

Great pick. I f***ing love Pink Floyd; I respect the hell out of Roger Waters as a musician. Absolutely detest him as a person.

Finding spite middle ground is a beautiful thing.

Those two songs I can freely and happily admit are great, and I didn't forget about them. So is "Us and Them." But that leaves a whole ton of shit that is terrible garbage.

I don't know where the hell you have been to have avoided Floyd hate :laugh: That's legit crazy. I'm not trying to seriously act like it's crazy to like them - I passionately hate them, but that's just my taste - I'm just gobsmacked that you haven't run across legions of people who hate them like I do. I couldn't begin to tell you how many I knew. The problem was that there were probably an equal number of f***heads who were mesmerized by them and wouldn't leave me alone about it. It's probably just an age thing - you had more time between when they came out and when you had people hearing them than I did, so it wasn't as much of a current topic for you. They do f***ing suck, though.

Great spite, which at the end of the day is all that matters. It is both the fuel for our ship once we leave Earth Prime and our currency once we settle on Earth 2.

@Rebels57 the thing that really gets me is the people who can defend the plodding, boring, monotonous, pointless burnout drivel of Floyd, and then turn around and shit on Rush :laugh: At least Rush made dynamic drivel.

Ok now Rush hate I am familiar with and I am not on board. They may not have written a lot of radio hits, but they are some of the most talented rock musicians ever assembled.

Never heard of it, legitimately. How is this a great debate? It's not even the same music lol

It's basically guys who drink Jack Daniels vs guys who smoke pot. It's like the Mods vs the Rockers, the Greasers vs the Socs, the Jets vs the Sharks. It goes way beyond the music and is more a conflict of lifestyle or culture or whatever. Different social groups.

Team Hill to Die on:

Short and sandals in the winter. it's fine. Am I cold? Not really, and if I cared if I was, I wouldn't be wearing shorts and sandals.

@Hurricane28

Oh man this is good...I always make fun of white dudes wearing shorts in the winter. It cracks me up. If this is your hill to die on i'd be the one giving you the push :laugh:
