Anyway in one of the first scenes, Michael and Sean are sitting at a restaurant (I think it's the one on California/Market streets in SF) and one of Sean's lines is:
CONRAD I don't need anything from you. I was laying on a beach somewhere in Spain, naked, and, it hit me -- Nickie's birthday. So, here I am, four layovers, twenty-seven hours flying and one donkey ride later. Not necessarily in that order.
But I'm pretty sure he says "Ibitza" [sic] instead of "somewhere in Spain"... and it struck me the as a very similar line to the LCD Soundsystem "Losing My Edge" lyric. Is this a common phrase?
So I guess this might be a question for Gareth.

You have friends in Albany? Who?

i dont know, it could just as easily be "in spain somewhere", as eebeetha specifically. guess it depends on the context
ive never been to ibiza. i think i'd like to have gone in 1972 with the eurogeoisie from zurich and milan

Wow Caitlin that's crazy. I was probably in the same hospital. not sure though. I know I actually have my birth certificate around here somewhere. I will try to find it. and actually, I was born in Niskayuna, but at the time my mom and dad lived in BALLSTON SPA.

one of my close friends from that time period (angela) met a navy boy and moved with him there and had a couple of babies. and then my other best friend (shera) followed her there and met a man and now has a baby and stuff. and then finally shera's best friend (heidi) followed her there and has a baby and shit.
they all grew up in LA, and now they live in upstate ny. don't make sense to a city boy like me

why did it take him so long to get from spain to california
― katherine NAGL (s1ocki), Thursday, 23 July 2009 02:29 (sixteen years ago)
airport security
― ₪_₪ (Lamp), Thursday, 23 July 2009 02:30 (sixteen years ago)
he rode a donkey thru airport security?
― katherine NAGL (s1ocki), Thursday, 23 July 2009 02:35 (sixteen years ago)
he also specifically says 27 hours FLYING.
LAMP.
he tried to bring the donkey and thats where the problems started DUCY
fyi "flying" is a slang term some1 might use to indicate they were on illegal narcotics
not saying just saying
― ₪_₪ (Lamp), Thursday, 23 July 2009 02:36 (sixteen years ago)
when he flys around the world, he "flys" "around the world"

i think it was hard to fly direct from Ibiza to SFO at the last minute at that time, donkey or no donkey.

The sequel is already out for home rentals? Did it even get a theatrical release?
― El Tuomasbot (milo z), Tuesday, 18 July 2017 13:03 (eight years ago)
very little in the US, it seems
― mh, Tuesday, 18 July 2017 13:26 (eight years ago)
It did! I saw it! It's uh not the kind of sequel that stands on its own.
― Uhura Mazda (lukas), Tuesday, 18 July 2017 14:27 (eight years ago)
the sequel was great, surprisingly
― Οὖτις, Monday, 21 August 2017 22:27 (eight years ago)
I saw it, dumb fun
― calstars, Monday, 21 August 2017 22:44 (eight years ago)
thought it dealt with aging, lost opportunities, nostalgia, etc. v well
― Οὖτις, Monday, 21 August 2017 22:46 (eight years ago)
could not get thru the sequel, brutally bad
― johnny crunch, Tuesday, 21 November 2017 03:09 (seven years ago)
good lyrics in that video simon watches tho
my wife sells cheese on the internet / i think about her sister when we're intimate
― johnny crunch, Tuesday, 21 November 2017 03:10 (seven years ago)
finally watched the sequel. my expectations were very low, they were exceeded. it covered all the bases, maybe a little too thoroughly but for a follow-up to a movie that was popular among people of an age because it fell into that dark/edgy/transgressive space, it played it off without falling into that trap
ewen bremner definitely the star of the film, scene where mcgregor/carlyle are side-by-side in the toilets was maybe the best staged
