A few years ago, I dove into Bong Joon Ho's full directorial filmography and he quickly cemented himself as one of my favorite directors. I was super excited to be able to experience the release of a new film of his with the context of his body of work.
Coming off of Parasite, I really appreciate that Bong decided to do something completely different while still maintaining his sensibilities. Robert Pattison absolutely nails it and if for nothing else this…
My resurgent Supertramp mood can't be stopped, holy PEAK 🗣🎹
(Also its an absolute...crime...that Supertramp are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame)
Fantastic documentary about the making of "We Are The World" that was a perfect fly-on-the-wall perspective of a historic night. A bunch of random thoughts on this:
- I will never look at Al Jarreau the same
- Kenny Loggins recounting Paul Simon's "John Denver" joke is absolutely hilarious
- All the bits about Bob Dylan are comedy gold
- Huey Lewis was sweating his ass off the whole time
- Smokey saying he was one of the only people…
An absolute joy to see Phil and his son Nic sit and chat about Phil's career, particularly his drumming. It was cool to see the vast array of different drummers talk about their love for Phil's work, although I don't think I need to hear anyone sing the "In The Air Tonight" fill again lol. The only L of this was not being able to include Phil's or Genesis' music for licensing reasons, I assume.
Overall, this was a labor of love to honor my all-time favorite drummer and one of my favorite artists ever. Kudos to Drumeo for putting this together! 🥁
