Album Favorite

"It was hard to pick a Cure album because they're one of my favourite bands, and one of the bands that has made brilliant albums in very different styles, perfect pop albums. Pornography is a pretty unique record that is just insanely bleak, so hopeless but also really again self-contained and perfect. It's not got a shit song on it, even some of my favourite albums have a song that you can imagine they could have done without, but Pornography is absolutely brilliant in that respect. It's just a really suffocating, druggy, bleak amazing record. I hear there was a lot of drinking… I've never really been party to any studio meltdowns, so these stories are… I mean, maybe I'll have a couple of slices of cake too many. They're always quite fascinating. I was definitely a bit of a goth, and still am at heart, I just have no hair to dye black any more. The Cure were the first band that I got properly into. The Disintegration tour was the first gig I ever saw, when I was 14 or 15 or something. We toured with the Cure, they were great to tour with. There was a party every night, they treated all the bands really well."

Child's play- in my mind is okay. I didnt like a lot of things in the movie. Spoiler alert if you havent seen it.

1. Chucky himself- when you first get a look at chucky your like disgust but also terrifying. He was creepy but also wired to look at. Everytime he was on screen i has a nasty feelling in my stomach.

2. Chucky's sense of humor- whenever chucky is about the kill someone, he says a one liner that doesnt go through. I understand that the studio was trying to have some of the old chucky's sense of humor in this new one, but it failed.

3. No don mancini and no brad dourif- those two alone are the keyholeders of chucky. Don mancini created chucky and directed three of the chucky movies and brad dourif voiced chucky in the pervious movies. I dont mind mark hamli, but chucky is not the same with these two involded.

4. The charcters, expecy for andy- i could care less about the rest of the chacters, andy was the only chatcter the i cared about in the movie.

Other than those i thought child's play was okay. Not great, just okay.
