12 of 12 · most liked firstThis is beautiful, and how I want to lead my life too. No excuses for the mistakes of my past. Just try to stop being shitty going forward, and listen when friends confide I need to be less shitty. See also The Beastie Boys Story (streaming on Apple TV or on disc at your library). PS It was Ad Rock.
positive · AI labelView post →I watched BEASTIE BOYS STORY (2020) and am still mad that Rick Rubin refused to talk to me for RINGMASTER, because the film lays out in perfect detail how Rubin used Vince McMahon-style pro wrestling as the model for the “Fight For Your Right”-era Beasties. He told them to be heels! ‘Twas Kayfabe!!
neutral · AI labelView post →Watched the Spike Jonze Beastie Boys Story movie and damn I'm glad the first two bands whose records I bought with my own money were them and RATM. Well fucking played 12-year-old me
positive · AI labelView post →#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched Curtains (the poster bothers me more than it should, the film a little less so) Beastie Boys Story (sharp cheddar) Ghoulies (cheap AF, probably needed more alcohol, lots) Bloodbath at the House of Death (could have been more anarchic given Kenny Everett)
neutral · AI labelView post →The Beastie Boys Story, their live documentary of the history of the band is one of my favorite things ever put to film. Perfection.
positive · AI labelView post →I encourage people to explore the documentary offerings- Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie and Beastie Boys Story. Both films are incredibly inspiring. Very, very well done. The subject matter of both are absolutely fascinating.
