I concur....When I first found out Omega Man was being remade I thought "Cool!". Then I found out it will Smith was playing Heston's part it was "Ahhh man?!?? Forget about it" So yeah I pass too. The original movie creeped me out when I saw it as a kid. will Smith is probably my least fav actor of all time. Ya know, that's what I thought too at first; but he did pretty good in serious movies like The Pursuit of Hapiness and Enemy of the State. So he might pull it off, Although I am afraid he might repraise his psuedo-I, Robot role and f**k the whole movie for me. Can you imagine: "Oh, no; you did not shoot dat zombie fireball at my house!!" But again, we might get lucky.

That's all i want to know. It was a giant black roiling (I love that word!) cloud with a reddish fiery energy at it's heart. Seriously? That's IT??? Oy vey!!! Hmmm....not sure how they could've done Galactus justice without making him look cheesy. Really, can you imagine some giant dude in a purple and blue outfit donning a huge helmet that's supposed to be THE RAVAGER OF WORLDS? Honestly I don't know what to think Man, so long as Galactus is in the movie, I'm happy.

I'm going to read the book, which was written by Richard Matheson, in a week or three, it's one I've never actually read before so I'm looking forward to that... Trust me when i say you'll enjoy the book; however it's very different than Omega Man.

Just a guess: Jacobs Ladder?

farewell to kings?

The Analog Kid? ".....has the trees in constant motion; with a flash of silver leaves as their rocking in the breeze....."

Driven?

Rush was in a bathtub with Dream Theater and Mike Portnoy farted. Geddy loudly exclaimed, "Wheres My Thing!?!". "It is in Alex's double neck Gibson, which is not the greatest place to find a gigantic wildebeast. Neil said fear the snow dogs or they will kill your family

I like the bass line in Middletown Dreams right at the beginning of the last minute if the song. mixed with the synth, it gives me goosebumbs. Also, in Xanadu: The guitar squeal during the second verse: "....stars stop in the sky; Frozen in an everlasting view...." Simply amazing.

QUOTE (Moonraker @ Aug 24 2004, 01:24 AM) By far my favorite album, this definatly was the soundtrack of my life when I first bought it. This is the most difficult to choose from (thankfully I already decided a while ago), but I went with The Analog Kid. The lyrics "When I leave I dont know what I'm hoping to find, and when I leave I dont know what I'm leaving behind" still are some of the most haunting I have heard. In a close second is Subdivisions, and Losing It, but there isnt a single song that doesnt still send chills down my spine when I hear them. Don't forget the solo! One of Lerxsts best, bar none. Analog Kid is probably my fav, next to Digital Man and Countdown(very underrated.)

QUOTE (Presto-digitation @ Feb 9 2007, 08:10 AM) QUOTE (Earthshine @ Feb 9 2007, 12:55 AM) They really can't be compared. John was an influence on Neil, but you can't hear much of it. John was a more of a free player with tons of feel, whereas Neil is a very disciplined and organized player who will play the song almost exactly the same each time. Bonzo would often play fills totally different than on the original version of songs. Both approaches have merit and I think that both approaches are appropriate for each of their bands and styles. John was a tremendous drummer. If it were not for John, many of today's players would not be doing what they are doing. Same with Neil. He has paved the way for many drummers as well. So they are both equal, but in different ways. I agree with this post. In the end, don't sell Bonham short. I'm pretty certain Peart wouldn't. The man is the quintessential hard rock/metal drummer...and one of the biggest influences the genre has ever known. Peart is the greatest because he's the complete package...disciplined with timing, a full range percussionist on all levels...always striving to learn more, improve himself. Almost compulsively and obsessively so. Bonham was just a natural, who went by feel and energy. Neil Peart is Peyton Manning to Bonham's Terry Bradshaw. That's the best way I can put it. Don't get me wrong, i'm a huge zeppelin fan and i think that john was one of the best drummers in rock. He just wasn't as good in terms of drumming as Neil.

QUOTE (JohnnyBlaze @ Feb 8 2007, 09:31 PM) syrinx, your friend likes LZ more than Rush and he's probably not a drummer, yah? If so, then convincing him that Peart is better than Bonham may be impossible. actually he's been playing drums for deveral years.

Aww c'mon you gotta say somthing!!!!!!!

I have a friend who is convinced that John Bonham could out drum Pratt . so......................I'm trying to convice him otherwise. Help a noble cause. Give him some reasons why Neil is just better.
