    On Deadly Ground
    Whats become of Steven Segal? This movie was near or at his pinnacle as the macho martial arts kick-ass man's man best. This film is notable for the three minute ending where Segal goes on a freaking tear against the oil companies and auto barons of the combustion engine. Goes to the heart of the matter and is something everybody should see. A more definatively righteous statement in a major release you'll NEVER see. ~ It's oil for the rich and babies for the poor. We've got everyone believin' that more is more ~

    Fear & Loathing In Las Vegas
    A classic. Easily the best screen adaption of Hunter S. Thompson's debut of gonzo. You really owe it to yourself to see this movie.. You can stream it for free on fancast.com. In case you're not familiar, Hunter S. Thompson covers a narcotics conference in Las Vegas and then does a story on the Mint 400 race for Playboy. The real quest is for the soft white underbelly of "The American Dream", which is eventually traced, in a drug induced frenzy, to the casino at Circus Circus in 1971. Lots of music from the 60s and 70s, snippets of course.

    Hal R: Re Tzokay Tibetan chanting
    The throat singers of Tuva do two tone singing.The Tibetan monks do Tzokay style chanting, which accomplishes three tones.

    Ok, so I don't watch many movies or watch tv, so I am kind of behind the times. Loved this movie using Beatle's songs. The way it starts out so innocent and too sweet and moves on to the turmoils of the later 60's is right on. And the trip with Dr. Roberts is quite a trip, wow. The guy driving Dr. Roberts bus looks like Kesey, anyone else notice that? If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

    two tone singing
    I've been to several concerts with Tibetan monks doing the two tone singing, it is amazing and seems to just get inside you in a very deep place. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. William Blake

    Garcia
    Hey now, Trish!! Garcia film IS in the works! the rights to two bios were legally obtained, (Captain Trips is one) and some may be surprised to learn, the dude Justin Berfield who used to playe Reese in in that schlock TV show Malcolm in the Middle is involved.. Jason Felts is another guy involved with the project, his dad was a deadhead... MAYBE the movie will focus on Garcia's recovery from the diabetic coma, when he had to re-learn the guitar... according to rumours in LaLa land, the film will also include scenes of Garcia in the army and how he met Phil and the other members of the band... about a year ago, a few top notch people got involved to produce this, Eric Eisner among others. Hollywoodland is SLOW!!!! keep patient. I've seen unreleased copies of a treatment for this, should be good! who will play Garcia??? TOP SECET!!! peace.

A movie from the Sundance Channel about an Irish cop named Sgt. Boyle. The opening scene is really good with a bunch of kids partying in a car going down a country road passing around a bottle of whisky.
