intertribal: (hail to the thief)
Another meme from Kim. 

List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're any good, they must be songs you are presently enjoying. Post these instructions in your Live Journal along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they're listening to.

1. Rammstein - Moskau
2. Peaches - Fuck the Pain Away
3. Deftones - Back to School
4. Jack Off Jill - When I Am Queen
5. Rammstein - Amerika
6. Rammstein - Mein Teil
7. The Knife - Heartbeats

Tag people?  Pshh!

As you can see, I have very much enjoyed discovering Rammstein in the past year.

"What's the situation?" "Two blokes and a fuckload of cutlery!"

HOT FUZZ - Ever wondered what would happen if you crossed Boondock Saints violence, Midsomer Murders setting, and the genius minds behind Shaun of the Dead? Well, it's this. Simon Pegg, London super-cop, has been transferred to "Ye Olde English Towne" (to quote the NYTimes Review) that's trying to win Village of the Year, because he's making the rest of the force - I mean, service - look bad. At first he's bored out of his mind, as he and police chief's son and dumbass Sergeant Nick Frost run around town chasing escaped swans, telling people not to cut other people's hedges, etc. Then the gruesome murders begin. But don't you know - these aren't murders, they're just unfortunate accidents! I won't spoil it, but this movie is all sorts of wonderful - incredibly funny, cussing-laden, politically incorrect, and yet not at all grotesque and trashy the way I know an American production team would make it. It's difficult to describe Pegg and Frost's humor - it's not like Scary Movie, it's not like sitcoms, it's not ATHF, it just has to be seen to be believed. But this is the kind of movie I really, really love. Relatable people, extreme crises, very mundane settings, outrageous humor. There's nothing pretty or sweet about these movies (except perhaps the main characters' friendship) and they destroy everything that's "picture perfect" in this one. Which is awesome. All my ranting about my love for the "ugly" - ugly writing, ugly movies - well, this is a good example of what I mean. Un-P.C., uncool, un-utopic, unstylized (another very similar movie: Little Miss Sunshine). Ironically, absolutely perfect - Highly Recommended.
