Who knows whats really going on with Tate. I like the Charlie Sheen analogy; he just seems clueless with what QR is about and what the fans want.

Zook · « **Reply #701 on:** July 18, 2011, 06:57:02 PM »

I'm pretty sure he said he didn't care what the fans want, and that he's making the music for himself first and foremost.

Ravenheart · « **Reply #702 on:** July 18, 2011, 06:58:13 PM »

I think Tate is an enigma at this point in his career.

Or really desperate to live his fantasy life of a male pop-star.

jjrock88 · « **Reply #704 on:** July 18, 2011, 07:00:06 PM »

If he doesn't care about the fans, then the band and himself deserve this mega fallout and the financial drop that comes along with it. I will always consider myself a fan; but I would be very embarrased to play DTC for somebody and say that I am a fan of the band. "Wot We Do" makes me sick.

I just pretend they split up after Empire, just like I pretend Jason died for good at the end of Friday The 13th Part VII.

I generally agree with you on the first point. However, I ask you what the hell seventh Friday The 13th are you rambling about? There were only 4 movies in that series.

I hope that's just you taking it further by saying he died at the end of The Final Chapter by the hands of Tommy Jarvis. Please let that be the case.

Nope, there were 5 more sequels after The Final Chapter, a remake, and Freddy VS. Jason.

Jason Takes Manhattan was a disaster. Jason Lives is the best of the series.

Um, yeah. I find the rest of the series after it to be far weaker.

Very True, but Part 6 and 7 were both very enjoyable if not just for Jason.

Ravenheart · « **Reply #711 on:** July 18, 2011, 07:14:37 PM »

2, 4, and 6 are the best of the series. The rest are abortions.

But 7 had Jason's most badass look ever. Zombie Jason is fucking brutal. So brutal in fact that they had to seriously edit the movie down enough to make it an R rating.

Zombie Jason himself was cool. The overall movie was horrible.

Oh well, at least you're not praising Jason Takes Manhattan.

That one part where he punches the black guy's head off is gold. The rest is some other thing that is unpleasant.

Fuck that movie and fuck every movie after that and fuck New Line Cinema with a hot poker and Sean S. Cunningham too.

What would you say is worse, the sucky 13ths or the sucky Freddie movies?

Ravenheart · « **Reply #718 on:** July 18, 2011, 07:27:13 PM »

As a big Nightmare on Elm Street fan, I'm more inclined to say that the NOES series has less suckage, though Freddy's Dead is downright embarrassing.

I could never hate any part of the series, though. I grew up on it, so I'm biased.

MasterShakezula · « **Reply #719 on:** July 18, 2011, 07:30:45 PM »

I see, I'd agree that it has less sucky films than Jason.

I do find Freddy's Dead to be a non-sucky one, though, due to its hilarity.

Can't say the same for Teh Dream Child, though its Freddie moments are hilarious as usual.

Well let's see:

Good Nightmares - 1, 3, 4, 6, 7. Yes 4 is actually decent and 6 is hilarious.

Good Fridays - 2, 3, 4, 6, 7. Last time I watched part 1 I was bored out of my mind.

Bad Nightmares - 2, 5, FvJ

Bad Fridays - 1, 5, 8, JGTH, JX, FvJ

Sorry Jason...

Oh and fuck Platinum Dunes too!

Ravenheart · « **Reply #722 on:** July 18, 2011, 07:33:19 PM »

Nightmare 4 is severely underrated. I've never understood the hate for it.

MasterShakezula · « **Reply #723 on:** July 18, 2011, 07:36:18 PM »

Is anyone here familiar with Humongous?

I've heard it's horrendous and one of the most depressing and pointless horror films ever.

I'd like to know if it's worth watching for the badness.

I like how the Queensryche thread has suddenly become 100% more enjoyable now that it's the 'horror movie thread.'

Hope it's a good show and that they play old stuff.

Just one thing, man, you're on the wrong thread.

So, um, it'd probably be best to go over to the, um, Queensryche thread.

It's almost as funny as 6, IMO.

If it wasn't so funny, I'd agree with you about its sucking.

Ravenheart · « **Reply #729 on:** July 18, 2011, 07:52:53 PM »

Why would you ever hate Nightmare 2? Because it sucks and makes Freddy look ridiculous with slime and knives just protruding from his fingers?

Yes, and III had Dokken when they were sorta metal. Back during that timeframe, other than a festival show, I don't really see Dokken and Queensryche sharing a bill. But fast forward to 2007...

Just prior to the Take Cover tour, Geoff sees Don Dokken's solo act at a casino, and thinks to himself, "Hey, Don's a cool guy, and this kinda accountic lounge-singing thing with a bit of comedy thrown in is kinda cool." So he takes Don out on the road as the opener. It was quite obvious seeing that show that Don's voice was wrecked. But here's the thing: Don knew it. That's why he changed up his act and made it something he could actually pull off. He never presented it as, "I'm doing this because it's what I find cool, and the fans who get it will come along for the ride and screw anyone who doesn't get my 'art.'" It was obvious his mindset was, "Hey, I'm doing the best I can with what I've got, and thankfully I still have something left to give the fans, even if it isn't ideal." In other words, I don't think Don Dokken is delusional. Or at least he wasn't back in 2007. Rather than try to rewrite history and dictate his fans' tastes for them, he's just playing the hand that he's been dealt. See the difference?

The only cool thing about 2 is the pool scene. Everything else is awful and not funny in the slightest. At least You can call Freddy's Dead a Comedy Horror.

(Aren't they on tour with Judas Priest?)

Rock is dead...

(Wasn't Geoff on That Metal Show about a year ago? And do they not play rock on tour? And aren't they on tour with Judas Priest?)

Oh, and look, here in Portland on Aug 28 they are booked on the PDX ROCK Fest.
