shouldn't've passed on donnie darko dude!

― cinniblount (James Blount), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:35 (twenty-one years ago)

really, his gangly boneness is disconcerting here.

― cinniblount (James Blount), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:36 (twenty-one years ago)

Photos plz.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:40 (twenty-one years ago)

He sort of looks like he's made out of plastic. His head, at least.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:41 (twenty-one years ago)

this show is sorta awful

― cinniblount (James Blount), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:42 (twenty-one years ago)

he looks like if you were to cross johnny greenwood with weezer

― cinniblount (James Blount), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:43 (twenty-one years ago)

Cheerleader. Less awful now.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:43 (twenty-one years ago)

haha

― cinniblount (James Blount), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:44 (twenty-one years ago)

What are you guys watching?

― Layna Andersen (Layna Andersen), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:45 (twenty-one years ago)

schindler's list

― cinniblount (James Blount), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:45 (twenty-one years ago)

Cheerleader left. This is crap.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:45 (twenty-one years ago)

I was about to say "oh no wait, this is cool," but it's a Mitsubishi ad now.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Premiere of Cracking Up on Fox, which the ads suspiciously billed as "starring Molly Shannon" while featuring Schwartzman prominently in the logo.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:47 (twenty-one years ago)

(We got country AND western)

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:47 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm actually getting the vibe that this show started with a reality show pitch and one of the brainstorming pencilmonkeys shouted out, "Only let's MAKE IT UP like with SCRIPTS!" and the Guinness guys went "BRILLIANT!" and that's where babies made of crap come from.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:51 (twenty-one years ago)

No one on the planet is watching this but me and the Coppolas at this point.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:52 (twenty-one years ago)

they canceled webster for this?

― cinniblount (James Blount), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:55 (twenty-one years ago)

I think the whole plastic, Jonny Greenwood/Weezer love party, Count Crackula look is seriously working for him!

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 02:59 (twenty-one years ago)

ALL NEW EPISODE TOMORROW!

Is that Zoey Deschanel? Goddammit.

Yeah, what the fuck, even a Ma'am And Puppets spinoff from Webster would've been better.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 03:00 (twenty-one years ago)

What is it working to DO? Whatever it is, it's overpaid.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 03:00 (twenty-one years ago)

if they'd listened to my Coppola punch card idea, none of this would've happened. Or something.

― Donna Brown (Donna Brown), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 03:02 (twenty-one years ago)

there seems to be a superfluous word in this thread title

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 03:18 (twenty-one years ago)

Wait for I HEART HUCKABEES! Him and Mark Wahlberg make quite a pair. Plus he has animalistic sex with Isabelle Huppert smeared in MUD.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 04:22 (twenty-one years ago)

Jews are nerdy-looking!

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 04:25 (twenty-one years ago)

It's our schtick.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 04:26 (twenty-one years ago)

And damn, is it working.

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 04:50 (twenty-one years ago)

No photo yet? What the fuck.

― Andrew (enneff), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 05:00 (twenty-one years ago)

Rod Carew isn't nerdy-looking

― Nate in ST.P (natedetritus), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 05:03 (twenty-one years ago)

He is looking a bit Downey Jr. lately.

http://www.papermag.com/magazine/mag_02/mag_oct02/cover/images/js03.jpg

I'd still shag him absolutely senseless and cook him hasbrowns in the morning.

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 05:09 (twenty-one years ago)

he looks like a VAMPIRE!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 06:00 (twenty-one years ago)

Naw, he just looks like he's gotten smacked around a bit by an overzealous lover.

It's broke, Ned!

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 06:06 (twenty-one years ago)

he got hit with the Turturro stick

― Nate in ST.P (natedetritus), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 06:08 (twenty-one years ago)

It's broke, Ned!

D'oh. It is Tom Cruise on top of Brad Pitt. The former is apparently enjoying himself.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 06:09 (twenty-one years ago)

dirty dirty

― Nate in ST.P (natedetritus), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 06:10 (twenty-one years ago)

The desciption is undoubtedly more amusing than the picture itself.

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 06:11 (twenty-one years ago)

OK judging by that photo if you guys mean "looks like such a dork" in the way that I would normally use "has actually become attractive" then yes he totally looks like a big freaking dork.

― Allyzay, Wednesday, 10 March 2004 06:11 (twenty-one years ago)

otm

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 06:11 (twenty-one years ago)

i still have hopes for him, though i'm not sure why

― s1ocki (slutsky), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 06:27 (twenty-one years ago)

If he has left his godawful band then there may be hope for him yet.

― Dan I. (Dan I.), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 06:33 (twenty-one years ago)

Although he looks like the sort of guy that the other members of any band would ostracize and demean, which is kind of gratifying.

― Dan I. (Dan I.), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 06:40 (twenty-one years ago)

http://images.zap2it.com/20040209/crackingup_cast_240_001.jpg

Even this photo is not as dorky as he actually looked on the show.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 14:06 (twenty-one years ago)

When was Jason Schwartzman not as dork? Isn't that his schtick?

― anode (anode), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 14:14 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, I'm curious as to how the guy that saved Latin can "now," suddenly, out of the blue, without warning, look like a dork.

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 14:43 (twenty-one years ago)

The new York Times gave that show a rave. It's by the guy who wrote Chuck & Buck and School Of Rock. Um, whatshisface, Mike White.

― scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 14:50 (twenty-one years ago)

he wrote the good girl, too. and orange county! and episodes of freaks and geeks and pasadena!

i didn't know that.

― the angry cowboy (dick), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 14:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Let's go back to the title of this thread and question the presence of the word "now".

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 15:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Dan et. al. are otm. Exhibit B:

http://www.aboutfilm.com/movies/r/rushmore3.jpg

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 15:21 (twenty-one years ago)

Let's go back to every other post on this thread questioning the use of "now".

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 15:22 (twenty-one years ago)

No, I like my post better.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 15:23 (twenty-one years ago)

I want to bone Molly Shannon. To the Dog Show theme song playing on repeat.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 15:25 (twenty-one years ago)

are we actually surprised that he looked like a dork in rushmore? kinda missing the point i think

― s1ocki (slutsky), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 19:41 (twenty-one years ago)

He kinda looks like a dork, too.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 19:46 (twenty-one years ago)

right after "Rushmore" he was a big hairy Coppola bastard, with hair on his back probably. He looks a lot better now, as noone could look worse than he did in that dark period (ew, "Slackers")

― Donna Brown (Donna Brown), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 19:47 (twenty-one years ago)

I thought he looked really hot on that show. I was ashamed that I found him so attractive, it was like some sick weird throwback to my indie-schmindie phase.

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 19:48 (twenty-one years ago)

In rushmore, he was dorky but still cool. Ever since then, it is just kind of uncomfortable seeing him, cause you know he'll never do anything close to that again. He should still be proud of it, though.

― Mitchell (Mitchell), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 19:50 (twenty-one years ago)

you know he'll never do anything close to that again.

I HEART HUCKABEE'S is pretty close, though.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 20:38 (twenty-one years ago)

you are all a bunch of fat girls

(me otm)

― dean! (deangulberry), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 20:39 (twenty-one years ago)

huckabee's sounds interesting. I hope he proves me wrong.

― Mitchell (Mitchell), Wednesday, 10 March 2004 21:15 (twenty-one years ago)

You know, it's not so much that he looks like a dork as that he looks like a Monkee. Maybe Blount meant to type Tork.

(No, I'm not watching it again, American Idol just ended.)

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 11 March 2004 02:32 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm watching it even though it's not very good, I feel like Mrs. Roper.

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Thursday, 11 March 2004 02:38 (twenty-one years ago)

... did a naked Norman Fell wander in after I flipped over to the Smallville rerun?

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 11 March 2004 02:41 (twenty-one years ago)

No, just stupid Jason Schwartzman. I have now lost all self-respect.

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Thursday, 11 March 2004 02:42 (twenty-one years ago)

Is it despite how he looks in this show, specifically, or because of it? A lot hinges on that.

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 11 March 2004 02:44 (twenty-one years ago)

Because. That's the creepy part.

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Thursday, 11 March 2004 02:45 (twenty-one years ago)

I think this may be the most horrible thing I've ever admitted to ilx.

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Thursday, 11 March 2004 02:46 (twenty-one years ago)

There's basically no positive spin I can put on it, I'm sorry. He's not a bug, there's that. It could be worse. You could be attracted to a big gross bug.

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 11 March 2004 02:49 (twenty-one years ago)

why is guy so hated again?

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 11 March 2004 03:16 (twenty-one years ago)

It's not that he's hated (or at least, I don't hate him), he just looks weirdly dorky on the show (and the show itself is terrible).

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 11 March 2004 03:26 (twenty-one years ago)

but weirdly dorky is kinda his shtick, isn't it?

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 11 March 2004 04:29 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm still trying to grasp the horribleness of being attracted to Jason S. It's not like you suddenly woke up and said to yourself, "That D***n A****n, now he's fine."

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 11 March 2004 06:42 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm trying to grasp the horribleness of being attracted to anyone ever. Guilt = for Catholics

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Thursday, 11 March 2004 06:52 (twenty-one years ago)

i remember his spread in the young hollywood issue of paper being prime wank material a couple of years back

― anthony, Thursday, 11 March 2004 07:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Read "weirdly" where I said it as "weirdly for him," like, dorky in a way he has not looked dorky before. (Especially since as far as I could tell from the first episode, the character is not meant to be dorky -- and the guy Schwartzman's replacing didn't look anything like nu-Jason.)

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 11 March 2004 13:46 (twenty-one years ago)

He looks like a pitchfork reader.

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Thursday, 11 March 2004 13:52 (twenty-one years ago)

We're all Pitchfork readers! (Even if only to laugh.)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 11 March 2004 14:02 (twenty-one years ago)

I hope all y'all lusting after Schwartzman know that he is a Lego man. As mentioned above, he is made of plastic. Also, he's incredibly short. I walked by him after Phantom Planet played at my local record store. I'm 5'8", and he's gotta be at least 3 inches shorter than me.

― NA (Nick A.), Thursday, 11 March 2004 15:00 (twenty-one years ago)

I miss the dorks of yore. Fisher Stevens, Steve Guttenberg, Patrick Dempsey!

― scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 11 March 2004 15:11 (twenty-one years ago)

the ancient dorkes of yore?

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 11 March 2004 15:11 (twenty-one years ago)

let's not forget anthony edwards and what's-his-face carradine!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 11 March 2004 15:12 (twenty-one years ago)

Yes, by all means, the nerds of yore. They don't make them like they used to. Now they all have to look at least as loveable as Toby Mcguire. In my day, a nerd was a nerd, by gum!

― scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 11 March 2004 15:16 (twenty-one years ago)

did you see american splendor? the nerd stuff in that was unbelievably amazing.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 11 March 2004 15:19 (twenty-one years ago)

I loved that part. It was beautiful. I finally saw it the other night. It made me cry, i'm not ashamed to say.(the ending, not the nerd part. when they brought out the cake for his retirement and just him walking down the street and the thought of him and his little family. oh god, that was just too much.)

― scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 11 March 2004 15:34 (twenty-one years ago)

when his nerd buddy explains the ending of "revenge of the nerds," sitting in the car, that was one of my favourite scenes of 2003.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 11 March 2004 16:08 (twenty-one years ago)

I loved that scene too.

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:10 (twenty-one years ago)

oh god I saw this show last night and it was torture. sooooo unfunny. well molly shannon was good but I definitely got the "having fun on a doomed ship" vibe off her.

― anthony kyle monday (akmonday), Tuesday, 23 March 2004 22:54 (twenty-one years ago)

ten years pass...

If you've seen Listen Up Philip, I'm trying to identify a song. Elizabeth Moss is alone in the apartment, and she puts on an album with the old British EMI label. It sounded like something from the '60s, but I can't find anything checking around online. The song plays for its entirety, or close to it.

― clemenza, Sunday, 18 January 2015 16:48 (eleven years ago)

This it?

Yeah sounds like it:

Neat! I've loved that Andy Arthurs song in the post for a while, so I'm glad to find some stuff he made before it.

― Johnny Fever, Sunday, 18 January 2015 17:15 (eleven years ago)

Excellent--that's it, thanks. It actually does sound much more '70s than '60s.

― clemenza, Sunday, 18 January 2015 17:25 (eleven years ago)

No one seems to have it on Soulseek. That's obscure.

― clemenza, Sunday, 18 January 2015 17:27 (eleven years ago)

YouTube rip is pretty crappy.

― One bad call from barely losing to (Alex in SF), Sunday, 18 January 2015 17:33 (eleven years ago)

I downloaded the YouTube clip and converted it to an mp3 anyway. It looks like that's the best I'm going to do unless I wade into fantasyland Discogs or MusicStack prices.

― clemenza, Sunday, 18 January 2015 17:54 (eleven years ago)

nine months pass...

If you've seen Listen Up Philip,

I tried to watch this last night and couldn't finish it, just terrible
