General Discussion

@staceywi: Too many to list them all, but Foo Fighters - Everlong is one of my favorites, where you can see some of Michel Gondry's Science of Sleep ideas 10 years before that film. Also I love the giant phone, and always wondered what happened to it after the shoot. Some others: No Age - Fever Dreaming, The Chemical Brothers - Elektrobank, Michael Jackson - Beat It. Special mention to the Daft Punk anime Interstella 5555 and the Soulwax documentary Part of the Weekend Never Dies

@PenguinDust I know it should have been awhile ago, but I'm happy you logged back in now and hope you might continue to do so. There is so much history, it is hard to remember, but I would love to talk to you guys about it. Perhaps I'll create some features or figure out how to talk about it in a better format. One of my biggest disappointments was Terra Nova. The original script was one of my favorite things I have ever read. Then through "took many cooks in the kitchen" the show changed and it just a lot of its soul and central theme. That was a damned shame. Arrested Development being canceled was heartbreaking, but I did stand up in a room and meeting with Rupert Murdoch and fight for it to be saved for the third year. That might have been the best moment in my career (no offense to you pups). Another big disappointment, but the other would have to be Kitchen Confidential. (Ironically they aired together.) It was starring Bradley Cooper before he was uber-famous and was based on Anthony Bourdain's life but just never got the ratings to survive. None of these are things the suits passed on (I would have to dig deeper into my brain for that) but the first things that came to mind. Alright, I'll stop now...as you can see I can ramble on about this stuff forever.

@sdnewman If you find him, please tell me! I've got some questions for him....

@Gold_Skulltulla Good choices! That was really fun to go back and watch all of them. I miss when there was truly a forum to find awesome music videos without having to search through a million youtube videos of babies dancing.

Oh man, I don't know if I feel better about it after hearing that or worse! I really liked the idea behind Terra Nova and thought it had great potential, it just didn't live up to it, what a shame indeed.

Now I can only wonder what it would have been like, had it not been changed so much.
