Alien Girl

Just got back from seeing it. It was a fun movie but...as far as the book is concerned, the soundtrack, and considering Spielberg directed it it was, for lack of a better word, bland. Or dull. Or oatmeal, or, whatever...meh. Visually it was cool looking, but no better than a well executed computer animated show on Cartoon Network. Everything that I loved about the book (and that made it such a personal 'read' to me) Rush, Blade Runner, Max Headroom etc. didn't make the cut. I could even get past it leaving out all but the briefest cameo Rush image appearances (same one showed twice in different places), but the soundtrack itself and what did make the cut was just forgettable. Like I said, it was fun, but nothing special. Which is surprising considering the source material and who directed it.

Sorry...just have to interject. It's 'moot' point, not mute. 'Moot'.

 

 

Carry on...

Follow men's eyes as they look to the skies

The shifting shafts of shining weave the fabric of their dreams

And in the naked light I saw

Ten thousand people, maybe more

People talking without speaking

People hearing without listening

People writing songs that voices never share

And no one dared

Disturb the sound of silence

It's poofy.

 

It looks like an octopus!

 

 

It does!

:P

Before I can accurately vote, I need to know in regards to option 5, is there somewhere else one's memories are stored?

 

Memorex

Is it live, or is it Memorex?

What if babycat transformed into a puppy??? :o

What if treeduck transformed into a chicken?

It's poofy.

What would you do if I sang out of tune

Would you stand up and walk out on me?

Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song

I will try not to sing out of key

Every time me girl asks me to set the table I tap out "YYZ" with the forks.

Or can burp the intro to Limelight.

 

I like to play the intro to Witch Hunt on water glasses.

People of the earth, can you hear me?

Came a voice from the sky on that magical night.

And in the color of a thousand sunsets,

they traveled through the world on a silvery light.

 

The people of the earth stood waiting,

watching as the ships came one by one.

Setting fire to the sky as they landed,

carrying to the world children of the sun.

What great song.

 

It is my absolute favorite.

The greatest thing you'll ever learn

is just to love and be loved in return

Since this is in the Rush section, I wonder if the OP was just looking for lines from Rush tunes. Maybe I'm wrong.

 

Yeah, I wasn't sure either...that's why I started w/ Rush then went from there.

"...Dreams flow across the heartland..."

 

:)

 

Ew. No.

 

(Sorry, I'll see myself out :outtahere: )

He takes the good,

He protests the bad,

He makes a big stink and there you have The Rush Forum,

The Rush Forum.

 

When the fan world never seems

to be living up to 78's dreams,

then suddenly he's sobering up

and finding out that TRF isn't just about him,

ooooo oooo

Not just about him.

 

Ms. Garrett

 

JB, you are the Tootie to my Mrs. Garrett.

On a very special Facts of Life...

 

*Gasp* NOT MARIJUANA!!!

 

(wait'll she discovers alcohol.)

 

I don't want to be Mrs. Garrett anymore. She's a buzzkill. Literally.

Words, playing me deja vu

Like a radio tune, I swear I've heard before

Chill, is it something real?

Or the magic I'm feeding off your fingers

When I'm sad she comes to me

with a thousand smiles

she gives to me free

 

It's alright, she says,

It's alright

Take anything you want from me,

anything,

If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one

Drying in the color of the evening sun

Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away

But something in our minds will always stay

Ok, fine. Yes, I realize that's not just a line.

Dammitall, now I'm going to have that song stuck in my head.

This'll help.

 

I'm just another writer

Still trapped within my truth

A hesitant prize fighter

Still trapped within my youth

 

Stop it.

Dammitall, now I'm going to have that song stuck in my head.

Wave after wave

Will flow with the tide

And bury the world as it does

Tide after tide

Will flow and recede

Leaving life to go on

As it was

Since I don't know what 'take it to the dome' means, though I assume it's some sort of sports metaphor (that or Thunder Dome reference, but even that doesn't make a whole lot of sense), I chose 'form a 3 piece band and try to make money from the memories in my head', because those are gold, pure gold.

I think he means suicide by shot to the head.

Oooooooooohhhhhh...

 

I'd rather it was a sports metaphor.
