    he has randomly written one of my favorite songs of the last decade, and not sure i enjoy anything else by him.

     

    Great tune.  I’m lukewarm on Blood Orange, but I really dig this song. It helps that he cedes vocals to a female and the music has a 1980s Tangerine Dream-ish sound it.

    She definitely has an ulterior motive

    I'm guessing she just went on a huge shopping spree that hasn't yet hit his credit card bill.

    People can say what they like, but if OU had a defensive staff of Smoldering Ash, Hustle Never Sleeps, Mother Hutzler, J'ai Alai, and Tom Hagen, we'd all be high-fiving and proclaiming our intellectual superiority. 

    Let's face it, we all do this irregardless.

    I think I saw the first "new" Star Wars with Ewan McGregor and it sucked worse that than the original third installment with the little Muppet bears running around.

    Can't argue with that.   But Force Awakens was a nice course correction for the franchise.  Give it a shot.

    Yeah, but J.J. Abrams fucked up the camera work in TFA so far as making him menacing. Unless that is what he wanted.

    Until I saw Logan Lucky I had no idea that the guy was as big as he is, Close to 6’-3”, and 210 lbs. He should have towered over Ridley’s 5’-6” frame. Especially in character and costumes.

    That's a good point, but was probably intentional on the part of Abrams so as not to make the heroine appear so diminutive.  Kind of like how directors have historically gone to great lengths to mask just how short Tom Cruise is.

    This.........which is the only thing I have seen him in so far.

    Wait . . . you haven't seen him in any of the Star Wars movies?

    I think he's okay overall, but was perfectly cast as Kylo Ren in The Force Awakens.

    Ringing the bell again and making up for the dry spell of last year's divorce.

    Have you bought her a ring yet?

    Saving the ring for your mom, if she'll take me.
