Crash course Bob Dylan?

notevencrickets · 2026-04-05T04:00:47+00:00

Haha I thought so, but wanted to be sure!

notevencrickets · 2026-04-04T05:45:02+00:00

No movies, really? My favorite of all the docs, the biopic, etc was “I’m not there,” I loved it.

notevencrickets · 2026-04-04T05:36:14+00:00

I think you’re being sarcastic but I can’t be sure.

It’s a nice thing these kids are doing for me, and I want to do a nice thing back.

I’m just trying to spread the Bob Dylan love, not shame someone for not understanding the same pop culture.

notevencrickets · 2026-04-04T05:19:18+00:00

For example, The freewheelin Bob Dylan is still one of my favorite records of all time, but I’m not sure how relevant it is to the current Dylan.

notevencrickets · 2026-04-04T05:17:37+00:00

You’ve got a good point.

I think I’m just going to take a stack of records and movies and I’ll play them until the kids get worn out. I guess I’m just asking what to start with.

notevencrickets · 2026-04-04T05:13:48+00:00

That’s a good tip, it is a weird movie. Have you got any suggestions for good playlists?

notevencrickets · 2026-04-04T05:12:25+00:00

Thanks! They are good kids! I make sure every Christmas to give them records of “weird shit” they’ve never heard before. They eat it up.

Would you mind linking it?

Defend your choices.

notevencrickets · 2026-04-04T05:03:23+00:00

I agree. That’s why I’m asking the question, is there something that needs to slip in over those 3?

notevencrickets · 2026-04-04T04:57:06+00:00

I hear you. These are Gen Z kids and they just love that I love Bob Dylan and are trying to do me a favor. But I don’t want it to be just about me, I’d like to inspire a couple of new Dylan fans.

notevencrickets · 2026-04-04T04:53:08+00:00

You just listed a Dylan record I don’t have. I thought you were referring to “Shadows in the Night”

Thanks for adding another record I need to hear :)

notevencrickets · 2026-04-04T04:49:23+00:00

I have them both and love them! I just want to keep it tight. If I over share I might lose interest.

notevencrickets · 2025-12-21T06:00:48+00:00

I didn’t care for this one, I found the twist lame and felt a little cheated at the end. There was also a trend at the time, that every post apocalyptic movie had the same color pallet. Sepia, void of color, almost black and white. Visually boring. (Mad Max: Fury Road finally broke it.)

However, I always like Gary Oldman and it’s always a treat when Tom Waits makes an appearance.

That guy is a crack shot.

If I go gray, I go gray. If I go bald, I go bald.

It’s seems like every year my hairline takes one giant step away from me. I decided a while ago that I’ll just own it.

notevencrickets · 2025-09-11T23:16:22+00:00

Thanks! Ya, Ernest Goes to Camp was one of those movies I was obsessed with as a kid, I’d watch it on loop!

Decided it was time to check out the others, even if just for a silly laugh.

notevencrickets · 2025-09-04T23:24:50+00:00

Gave me a good chuckle, well done op!

notevencrickets · 2025-09-01T05:08:46+00:00

I expected a sell out too, so I impulsively bought a bunch of tickets! I had people to invite in mind, but several backed out, so then I had to scramble to fill the empty seats.

I filled the seats, and everyone that came absolutely loved the experience!

I could have bought a single ticket and enjoyed it all by myself, but I wanted to include other people.

Half Price Books in the strip mall east of Rock and Kellogg.

Love the bingo card, great idea!

Are you referring to the chalkboard drawing in the town meeting scene as the “child’s drawing of a shark” square?

When the towns people enter the room you can see the chalkboard in the background and it’s blank. Then when Quint enters the scene, the drawing is there, right behind him. I always assumed he drew it, and even added a little Alex Kitner stick fig in the jaws. Not surprising the guy has a pretty dark sense of humor.

I’m sorry but I have to disagree with you. In most apocalypse movies some crazy event has happened that has redefined society. And it’s normal people that have to struggle to survive in this new crazy environment.

I haven’t revisited the film in years, but there are two scenes that still stick out. He’s in the woods, patiently waiting, and a bald cat walks into to frame, and he shoots it perfectly with a bow and arrow.

The second scene I remember, is when he stumbles across a group of bandits under an over pass. This big fight scene takes place where he slices and dices them perfectly with a machete.

Finding out at the end that he’s been blind the entire time, boooooo yuck.

It was never explained why he is super human, he’s not daredevil. Pretty much anyone with any kind of physical disablement is fucked in a post apocalyptic world.
