I was suspecting that.

So the The Bangles Forum is going to be a thing? Cool!

That's the very idea!

It will be like a forum!  

EthanSVG is more than a good fan.  He created r/TheBangles and has been working on it for quite awhile.  He's putting the finishing touches on it, and should let it go officially live next week!  I've been in the loop, but he asked me to keep it under wraps until now.  Should be a hopping place! 

That's Susanna Hoffs.  She's the rhythm guitarist that's singing with The Bangles.
(this is a pic from early in the 80s, pretty soon after she joined.)

Stop the press! Who's that?! Hey, Zeus, marimba! A girl like that could put steam in a man's strides! 
I'm of a mind to make some mookie. Heh, heh, heh...phone book.

Thanks, Steve.
See? I don't even know my own thread 

That final fanfare is like the perfect bit of salt after a sugar rush. Delicious.
 
 
Breaking?
 
 
Try harder.

From ecstasy, to melancholy,  to hopefulness. 

FOR A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS
I think I've determined now that the director-actor-composer trio of Leone, Eastwood and Morricone is one of the greatest such trios in the history of film, at least in terms of memorability. Although I've gone about the Dollars Trilogy in a scrambled order, starting with The Good, The Bad and the Ugly, each of these three films works pretty well as a standalone, although each does lend character development and key traits into each other. At the end of viewing all three, there was not much that I needed to stitch together, and the connections were not difficult to make. So let's get right into the ostium of The Man With No Name!
 
Leone's impeccable style is genre-defining. Although I've been sweeping through westerns left, right and centre lately (some spaghetti, others classic American) I haven't really seen that many. Nonetheless, it's quite easy to tell that what is being viewed is at the top of it's class. 
 
The script is yet another strong point, with so many memorable lines coming from the stoic Eastwood and company. Leone's directorial style is amplified by the cinematography of Massimo Dallamano, who sets the stage for the series with stunning landscape shots, pressing close-ups, and visual storytelling. The Man With No Name can often stand to be a man of few words, hell, expressions even, because the telling signs of intention, emotion, focus, and motive are woven deeper into the fabric of the film than just in simple looks and lines. That being said, it's nothing to take too seriously. It's fun, it's clever, and it's made for popcorn and Saturday afternoons. 
 
The plot, specifically, introduces the mysterious rider (Clint Eastwood) who walks into a grim Southern town, where the best jobs are coffin maker and bandit. There are two leading gangs, and the Man ends up working both sides of the table by pitting each against the other on numerous occasions, work doubly on the inside. He ends up making a pretty penny, and (SPOILERS) gets the feuding sides killed off in the end. 
 
Morricone composed another trademark theme, owning each shot it appears in with the titoli whistling theme. Additives, such as the male voices and what's literally two pieces of wood, are clinchers. 
 
RATING: **** out of ***** (Prepare three stars.....My mistake, four.)
CONSENSUAL STATEMENT: "My mule liked this film. Genre-defining fun." -Jerry

Star Wars is better than everything. 

The best way to be trained as a Jedi is from one of those Jedi video games where you unlock an achievement and gain a new skill with a tutorial on how to use it.
