    I saw via IMDB that he has been producing, but I always liked him and most of the stuff he was creatively involved with.

    :( "Two seemingly dumb teens struggle to prepare a historical presentation with the help of a time machine" is about Music?

    what? havent you seen the movie?

    Rufus (george carlin) gets sent back in time to prevent the WYLD STALLYNS from breaking up why?

    because the music of the WYLD STALLYNS bring order and peace to the world

    WYLD STALLYNS is quite frankly the most historic and important musical group ever.

    I'm on the Almost Famous bandwagon...

    Bit of trivia...

    The initial actor for Billy Crudup's (Russell) part was Brad Pitt.

    I'm also looking forward to Taking Woodstock, which comes out this Friday. Ang-Lee directed movie about how Woodstock came to be.

    GREAT movie.

    Up In Smoke - It's about a battle of the bands, right? :cool:

    Fear Of a Black Hat - Rap mockumentary. Rockets are mentioned in it too!

    Almost Famous and High Fidelity are two of my all-time favorite movies.

    I watched that enough when I was in middle school that I still remember how that "I am spartacus" piece at the end goes. It also introduced me to the future hotnessess of Liv and Charlize, who were looking plenty sexy, unlike Home Alone 3 that had a jailbait Scarlett. The vocals for That Thing You Do is from Mike Viola of the Candy Butchers. Good movie.

    I was wondering when someone was going to mention this. I wasn't too big on it, honestly.

    Amadeus is a fictional account of Mozart's life, not a true biography.
