  • I’d say his Japanese transformation is my least favourite.

  • Famed producer Jon Landau dies at 63… This guy knew gambles, risks and hits. 63 is far too young….

  • LTK... Had a little too much LW/DH sound to it, but incorporated an interesting and at times, Bondian sound. Special mention to the gunbarrel. Too much disco-cheese in FYEO, for me. LTK for the listen.

  • He’s also a big strong boy with a helluva bunch of acting accolades, from Olivier’s to BAFTA, to Oscar nom to Emmy nom…. His mullet of choice is unfortunate, but give him a good cut (like that top pic), and I think he has all that it takes to giv…

  • @thedove , listen to Bryan Hayes. It was his brilliant theory on Overdrive (I can’t stand that muck). Although I can’t stand Dubas, I don’t wanna see Crosby in a new tarp, unless that team is a legit contender and he’s not relegated to being in and …
  • BHC, had everything in the right place. Stuck in its lane and delivered a fun, good time. It's not as good as the original, but I'd put it up against the first sequel (and it was far more enjoyable that no. 3!).

  • @Creasy47 .... Now that Tampa Bay has shown how ruthless they we're with Stamkos, are you at all nervouse that Dubas (thank god he's no longer with the Leafs), is ready to pull this with Crosby? If Dubas thinks he's going in full rebuild mode, w…
