I just bought this movie at best buy and watched it... I thought it was a great movie, has anyone else seen it?
if not, you should check it out.
-
Whats it about?
-
It\'s about Steveo a punk kid in salt lake city in the 80\'s and well, it is basically about rebellion and punk music and life in general.... But it is about a lot of other stuff too, very insightful and stuff.
I wish I could explain more, but it isn\'t really based on like a big story, just life in general.
It talks about the point of life, a lot of politics, and mostly about growing up.

Edit: Also, that website does not do the movie justice.
-
details please...
-
Sounds like Ken Park...
CRAP
-
It\'s an excellent film.
Can\'t believe some of you have not seen it....
-
Yes! thankyou LIC. the rest of you suck. :)
-
Is it relatively new, or is it old old old?
-
SLC punk is a great, great film
matt lillard does a fabulous job, and i can associate with the character 100% asi grew up the same in that era (just a different suck city)
best line is :
"i didnt sell out son, i bought in"
-
I am not sure why I never bought it. I love it and I\'ve watched it a dozen times - but for some reason, it just never occurs to me to buy it. I think I may do that this weekend.
Damn good film.
-
It is a good movie, I actually saw this quite some time ago... but I have to agree with the others it is a well made film. Growing up in the 80\'s I was into that whole scene - then I grew up. ;)
-
Seen it while channel surfing. The script held my interest and I stayed on the channel. Very good movie, even though I came in on the middle of it. Now I know the title. :)
-
Wow- so mm does like movies.
Well Ill check it out, even though I have lost all of my respect for punk music.
\'Tis a crying shame how that music industry has flopped downhill.
-
mm likes it?
........NEXT
-
Spudz, there are plenty of good "punk" influenced bands out there.... But a lot is very generic... It all depends on yer tastes :P

punk is dead

How can you lose respect for punk? You wasn\'t even alive for true punk.
-
well mm, original punk is dead.... but I still like punk influenced music.
-
punk influenced music is dead

No it\'s not.
There\'s Blink 183 and uhm...er...uhm..Rancid?

Deadly Hamster:
Punk = dead.
Only thing that is surviving this music industry is hip-hop, rap, r&b.
Even good ol\' heavy metal is dying from the mainstream. Im glad though, I dont want my favorite band to be an MTV posterboard.

Holly shit! A movie you like?????
Yes this was an excellent movie. I laughed, I cried, It was better than cats!
-
i think your career hits an all-time low when you\'re on the E true hollywood stories!
-
damn, i thought mm might have a thread where he wasn\'t synical about something....
-
Thats just mm for you.
My imagined image of him is a cross between Mr Burns and Ray Romano.
-
but hey, at least i didnt like "glitter"
-
mm, it is breaking the laws of science if you enjoyed "glitter".
even ##racer## knows that.

the fact you don\'t like it doesn\'t surprise me.
But when you say "i didn\'t like it" Which sounds to me like you watched it. I\'ve gotta say......... damn that is sad, for someone as highly educated in movies as you. It\'s even worse.
-
You have to give Souly a point on that comeback. Very nice.
:D
-
souly, i had no idea you were so literal
its charming, to say the least
-
you love me, i mean... I\'m just a lovable type of guy.
-
your a guy?!
wow, all these years i thought you were a chick
:confused:
-
Wow, mm likes a movie that came out after 1990 and Deadly youre late as all hell. Where have you been man? This movie has been out.
Punk is dead and all of its offshots are gay. Especially Emo/NewPunk. Its suburbia shit shoveled down the mainstream craphole and regurgitated as even worse shit. Case closed
As for you spudz, you should be glad to know that metal etc still holds a solid ground in chicago.

Pah... In your opinion. I still think the new and reformed "punk" genre still rocks. I\'m probably going to get lighted up for that because apparently I suck for not liking some underground, "never heard of them"-bands.
P.S. The Ramones sucked!

We won\'t trash you because you are not old enough to remember good bands and like mainstream, pop-based-punk music. That\'s your choice, just keep in mind it\'s not actual punk nor part of the punk movement.
Honestly - what "punk" wears abercromie and gels his hair?
:D

don\'t you mean. You were hoping i was a chick. You dirty old man.

I love good music and I hate bad music. That makes enough sense. I hated this MTV made punk music but their are some good bands coming out of this wave. Not many but bands like Thursday aren\'t too bad to listen to.
-
I hate the White Stripes, can\'t stand them. There are so many MTV pushed crap out there that it\'s sickening, it is gizzay. I like rock alot, but some of the shit they got shoving down our throats is sickening, I\'d rather chill out and listen to some Ludacris make fun of shit or 50 cent rag on Ja Rule. I\'ll probably get ripped for those past 2 sentences cuz most on these forums hate rap, but oh well.
-
There are plenty of good bands out there playing music about stuff they care about, so I don\'t see whats so bad about these bands... I just think some of you are getting too old ;)

Well id rather listen to some rap (new shit is just garbage sucked up by the mindless kids that dont know shit about good music) then some of this new stuff.
I hope you are not suggesting that the white stripes are punk.
-
No, the fact that they are new age persey and shitty by that means. I\'m talking real rap not this shit you see every day on TRL, I don\'t listen to anything that doesn\'t mean shit. I listen to 3-4 main people and stray away from the rest.
