Also, though I can't, thus far, locate any further info, he writes in his review that he's in possession of ten copies, to be given away as part of "this month's competition prizes."

Oh, I liked just about every video and song by the original Thompson Twins trio. My favorite one remains "Hold Me Now," a misplaced gospel song if you will. "Dirty Creature" sure brings back memories. I loved "Six Months In A Leaky Boat," "I Got You," and "Message To My Girl," too. Scariest video ever is probably Kim Carnes' "Draw Of The Cards," though, Andy Q. The 15th anniversary celebration of the film "Bull Durham" was canceled by the Baseball Hall of Fame because actors in that film have recently exercised some freedom of speech. Haven't actors learned from the McCarthy era that actors, writers (i.e., people who have the public's attention) don't have the same rights as citizens and are still subject to blacklisting, or don't they care? Manuel Sutton, Chula Vista, Calif. A. Celebrities who speak out politically are made into targets as a way of discouraging dissent. I have not heard a single thing Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins, the stars of "Bull Durham," have said about the war, but I have heard countless attacks on them for saying it. When you attack the messenger instead of the message, you are essentially saying, "Since you disagree with me, shut up." This is profoundly anti-American. - --Roger Ebert, from the current "Movie Answer Man" column at http://suntimes.com/output/answ-man/sho-sunday-ebert20.html ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Apr 2003 20:19:32 -0400 From: Dave Walker Subject: [loud-fans] Beatallica Beatles tunes, done Metallica style. http://sensoryresearch.com/~starkeff/beatallica.html I haven't downloaded any of the songs yet, but my favorite of the titles is "The Thing That Should Not Let It Be" -d.w. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 22 Apr 2003 01:09:02 EDT From: JRT456@aol.com Subject: Re: [loud-fans] Saga!

Say, isn't that quote above from the same guy who tried to ban "I Spit On Your Grave"? That's one great feminist film. ------------------------------ End of loud-fans-digest V3 #116 *******************************
