hi mauz thanx for the power of art series i want to download them but is unable to do so cann u pls help
thanx budddy
ayee

1. Crumb
Documentary about a subversive comic book writer/artist. The scene where his brother tells about pulling down a teenage girl's shorts and describing her butt as a peach makes you think, yeah, all women are essentially worth as much to me as wanting to see their butts.

2. In the Company of Men
This movie explains to us all how and why women are stupid and vaginas smell.

3. Lars Von Trier's Antichris♀
I know this is a work of fiction, but if the Christians can turn the The Passion of Christ into a documentary, then I can claim this film to be one, too! I don't know much about it as I haven't seen it yet, but it made waves at the Cannes Film Festival. The movie by Trier suggests women are evil creatures that deserve their persecution throughout history.

Yeah, but Cannes didn't almost fold like E3 basically did a few years ago, eh? The sadness. This was a pretty good clip though, esp. the Palin bit.

Actually Netrunner... I didn't see them treating E3 them as dorky/time-wastey at all. Were we watching the same vid?

I'm hoping they trash the Oscars or Cannes in a similar fashion, or else I'm going to think they're treating an industry that's making more money than the entire movie industry as if it's a big dorky waste of time, which would be ridiculous.

J’voudrais faire un slam pour une grande dame que j’connais depuis tout petit
J’voudrais faire un slam pour celle qui voit ma vieille canne du lundi au samedi
J’voudrais faire un slam pour une vieille femme dans laquelle j’ai grandi
J’voudrais faire un slam pour cette banlieue nord de Paname qu’on appelle Saint-Denis
Prends la ligne D du RER et erre dans les rues sévères d’une ville pleine de caractère
Prends la ligne 13 du métro et va bouffer au McDo ou dans les bistrots d’une ville pleine de bonnes gos et de gros clandos
Si t’aimes voyager, prends le tramway et va au marché. En une heure, tu traverseras Alger et Tanger.
Tu verras des Yougos et des Roms, et puis j’t’emmènerais à Lisbonne
Et à 2 pas de New-Deli et de Karashi (t’as vu j’ai révisé ma géographie), j’t’emmènerai bouffer du Mafé à Bamako et à Yamoussoukro
Et si tu préfères, on ira juste derrière manger une crêpe là où ça sent Quimper et où ça a un petit air de Finistère
Et puis en repassant par Tizi-Ouzou, on finira aux Antilles, là où il y a des grosses re-noi qui font « Pchit, toi aussi kaou ka fé la ma fille ! »
Au marché de Saint-Denis, faut que tu sois sique-phy. Si t’aimes pas être bousculé tu devras rester zen
Mais sûr que tu prendras des accents plein les tympans et des odeurs plein le zen
Après le marché on ira ché-mar rue de la République, le sanctuaire des magasins pas chers
La rue préférée des petites rebeus bien sapées aux petits talons et aux cheveux blonds peroxydés
Devant les magasins de zouk, je t’apprendrai la danse. Si on va à la Poste j’t’enseignerai la patience…
La rue de la République mène à la Basilique où sont enterré tous les rois de France, tu dois le savoir ! Après Géographie, petite leçon d’histoire
Derrière ce bâtiment monumental, j’t’emmène au bout de la ruelle, dans un petit lieu plus convivial, bienvenu au Café Culturel
On y va pour discuter, pour boire, ou jouer aux dames. Certains vendredi soir, y’a même des soirées Slam
Si tu veux bouffer pour 3 fois rien, j’connais bien tous les petits coins un peu poisseux
On y retrouvera tous les vauriens, toute la jet-set des aristocrasseux
Le soir, y’a pas grand chose à faire, y’a pas grand chose d’ouvert
A part le cinéma du Stade, où les mecs viennent en bande : bienvenue à Caillera-Land
Ceux qui sont là rêvent de dire un jour « je pèse ! » et connaissent mieux Kool Shen sous le nom de Bruno Lopez
C’est pas une ville toute rose mais c’est une ville vivante. Il s’passe toujours quelqu’chose, pour moi elle est kiffante
J’connais bien ses rouages, j’connais bien ses virages, y’a tout le temps du passage, y’a plein d’enfants pas sages, j’veux écrire une belle page, ville aux cent mille visages, St-Denis-centre mon village
J’ai 93200 raisons de te faire connaître cette agglomération. Et t’as autant de façons de découvrir toutes ses attractions.
A cette putain de cité j’suis plus qu’attaché, même si j’ai envie de mettre des taquets aux arracheurs de portables de la Place du Caquet
St-Denis ville sans égal, St-Denis ma capitale, St-Denis ville peu banale.. où à Carrefour tu peux même acheter de la choucroute Hallal !
Ici on est fier d’être dyonisiens, j’espère que j’t’ai convaincu. Et si tu m’traites de parisien, j’t’enfonce ma béquille dans l’…
J’voudrais faire un slam pour une grande dame que j’connais depuis tout petit

I ran like a rebel, in '85
Cops tried to catch me, cause all of 'em said I
Beat up these other men who were bigger than me
Was it because I was black and they were W-H-I-T-E
Here I was walking down the block
I seen these two big bikers standing by the biker's shop
They seen it was me so to make theyself feel bigger
One got bad bold, pointed and called me a "nigger"
I suck my finger up, I said "His mother" and kept stepping
His friend told his other friend "Hey Cauky let's get him"
I looked to my back, to my suprise, one had a chain
In his hand and the devil in his eye
I said "I'm in trouble, let me think real quick"
I looked down at the ground and got this big fat brick
With no time to waste I put the brick in my hand
And then the biker took the chain fell out of his hand
Then his friend Crotty said "Cauky are you alright?"
But what he didn't know was he was in for a fight
The right his his jaw, he fell on the floor
The kid I hit with the brick before said "Don't hit him anymore"
I put my brick down, left him on the ground
Everything was cool til the cops came around
They said "You're under arrest for assault 2 and 3"
I laughed at the copper and said "Explain this to me"
He said "You hit the man with a brick and punched another in the jaw
And left the scene like nothing happened and then they called the law"
I laughed in his face, I said "This don't make sense"
It was two against my black ass, this makes this an offense?
He tried to grab me, so I pushed him on the floor
And ran my black ass home and locked the living room door
I did what any black kid would have did
But to the coppers of the county, I'm known as a fugitive

I had to go to school, I couldn't be late
If I miss another day Mrs. Cann said I wouldn't graduate
I didn't go a lot, that didn't mean I didn't care
I had to come to school more often to try again next year
Fuck that, I went to school and I tried
You know to hide from the cops to June of '85
I get my diploma and things would be straight
Find out my graduation cops came and tried to put me on the gate
I ran though, with the diploma that I owned
With cops chasing me all the way til I got home
I got away gain, why, you know what I did?
I ran my black ass home and to them I'm still a fugitive

Two years went by, me running from the cops
My mom looked at my dad, my dad said "Son, this has gotta stop"
Dad gave me money, he said, "Son, this is for ya"
I went to Garden City to go get me a lawyer
I went to jail, Monday I was in jail through Friday
When you're black and you're in trouble man does your lawyer get paid
Then my moms told the judge "My son's a good child"
Then he laughed at my mother and said "Then take us to trial"
I told my mom and dad I felt within
If we took Suffux County to court or trial, I know I wouldn't win
So without a doubt, like any black kid in Suffux county
K-S-O-L-O had to cop out
To sixteen months in Riverhead
Instead of fighting and wilding, I wrote my records instead
Comisarry was ???, inmates owed me
CO's would beat me up on shakedowns, but now those suckers know me
And I laugh at those cops who arrest me for what I did
Cause I'm hooked and no longer am I a fugitive

1. Baptized Catholic.

2. Named after a relative who was killed in the Civil War, fighting for the North.

3. Ronald McDonald was my godfather.

4. Was in many musicals, commercials, radio spots, TV shows as a kid and had a small but visible part in a well known feature film. Notable non-imdb-able credit: You can hear me singing and laughing with other kids during the credits to Poltergeist. Shannon Doherty and Chad Allen were two of my childhood friends (no, I don't keep in touch).

5. Was elected president of my elementary school. My only presidential duty was to raise the flag every morning, which I passed off to my veep.

6. Used to write 'Weird Al' style parody songs. Unfortunately, the tape on which I recorded all of these songs was lost long ago.

7. Have wide feet.

8. My first car was a used 1988 Toyota truck which I kept until 2007. It was twice broken into and thrice stolen.

9. Studied percussion and composition at USC.

10. Was in the Disneyland Christmas Toy Soldier band for two holiday seasons.

11. Did not try drugs or alcohol until I was 20.

12. Used to sell my sperm for extra income.

13. Though atheist since high school, I've twice participated in a nude pagan ritual with strippers on an isolated beach under a full moon.

14. Sleep disorders. I get night terror when I'm extremely stressed. I also occasionally sleepwalk, talk in my sleep and get sleep paralysis.

15. Hiked to the top of Half-Dome in Yosemite twice.

16. Own a fully signed Mr. Bungle New Years 2000 poster.

17. Play Theremin.

18. I've performed at Carnagie Hall, Disney Hall, The Dorothy Chandler Pavillion, among other famous venues.

19. Went to the Cannes Film Festival in 2003 with a film that I scored.

20. Scored my first (and hopefully not last) commercial feature film in 2007.

21. Played in the pit for over 100 musicals. (wonder if I've worked with guessandcheck?)

22. Haven't had cable or shopped at a Wal*Mart in a decade.

23. If I had billions of dollars, I would design video games and theme parks.

24. VS is the only online community I've ever become a part of.

25. Six inches, but girthy.

hah, cannes films festival... good little addition at the end

I'm a freelance musician/arranger/film composer/music teacher in my mid-30s from Anaheim, CA. My main instruments are drums and percussion, but I also play piano, guitar, theremin as well as many different weird, exotic, homemade and toy instruments. I love music of all genres and have been lucky enough to be able to perform and write in many styles - concert music, jazz, rock/pop, film, world, avant-garde/experimental, etc.

My career has allowed me to travel around the continental US, as well as Hawaii, Cannes, Paris, London and Taiwan, but would love to travel more. Scoring movies is what I like to do most, and what I'm best at, but I don't get to do it nearly as often as I'd like. I'm also a big gaming fan and would love to collaborate on experimental, abstract, musical, dark and/or avant-gard games - if any of the game industry peeps on the sift are interested, pm me.

Issy is my girl and we have two awesome kitties together, Isobel and Frankenbutt.

Indeed, this isn't by JC Penny, but it WAS done by their ad agency, and entered into a competition in Cannes, and won... someone did it without their permission, it's brilliant!

>> ^neuralnoise:
Fernando Meirelles RULEZ! And so does Saramago´s work - pretty much everything he wrote.
City of God, by meirelles, is one of the best three brazilians movies ever made, and I´m really looking forward to seeing this one.


You should check out the sequel to City of God, City of Men. It's just as good as the first one. This director is so talented. I was fortunate enough to have a role in Blindness, and man, is this guy something. A genius, I say.

Indeed, very moving moment they have at the end. It must feel good to do such a good job of adapting someone's work that they cry tears of joy. Can't wait to see this film. Didn't know it opened Cannes though. Who's the producer?

Oh ouch, that's terrible, hopefully that didn't take too big a divot out of your sift count.
