A questions about Roadrunner Records?
Everyone knows they carry Nickelback and Slipknot and Theory of A Deadman…

But most metal fans know they also carry bands like Daath, Cavalera Conspiracy, Cradle of Filth, and Killswitch Engage.

Do you consider Roadrunner a great, legit metal record label, or do they lose credibility with you for signing Slipknot and Nickelback?


if you want to be called a great metal label should probably keep nickelback off your artist list
i’m gonna say they needed to pay some bills and needed bands people actually listen too
SOLD OUT

actually if you think about it nickelback is doin their part to keep the metal alive
Higher is a goal | Feb 07, 2010


Well I think that they totally sold out (especially by having Nickelback). Then again, they have such amazing bands as Dream Theater and Megaeth, leading me to reason that they are still awesome even though they hve a couple bands who are only there so that the label can make money.
84Mac | Feb 07, 2010


Well I am a fan of Slipknot so I don’t count them as a negative band on their label lol But, I’ve had that argument many times in my head. I can’t stand Theory Of A Deadman or Nickelback and I don’t get why they’re on that label.

I don’t consider them a great metal record label but definitely a legit one. Labels like Metalblade and Nuclear Blast are way better in my opinion.
Adam | Feb 07, 2010


In general, I don’t consider Roadrunner a very credible record label. They’re a subsidiary of Warner Music Group, and all they really care about is trendy bands that make money. But as you said, there are some great bands on Roadrunner, like Opeth and Porcupine tree.

I much prefer independent labels, but it’s not like I won’t listen to a band just because they’re on Roadrunner.

who changed his ways but now had to go back in order to provide for his kids.

Bootmen

Bootmen
Bootmen (2000)

IMDB rating: 9.10

Plot: Born charmer Sean Okden gave up tap-dancing when he started working in the steel mill, but as that’s going down the hill he grabs his chance being the only candidate in his coastal Australian home town Newcastle selected for a Sidney show. Being sacked soon just for a row with the arrogant lead dancer, he returns to find his girlfriend in bed with his brother Mitchell, and decides to start his own tap-dance group wearing hardhats, which he soon gives an original edge when the steel mill inspires him to weld metal on their shoes and dance on industrial steel, so it the metallic acoustics fit well with a local rock group. Financing their local debut is so expensive, even when the mill allows them free us of its premises -opening some acrobatic perspectives- while even his father won’t allow him to touch his mother’s inheritance for the project, that the ‘Bootmen’ need to steal the cheerleaders’ podium in a televised sports match to get media attention. Sean generously helps his brother when attacked, at the price of their motorbikes, only to learn his assailant Huey and Mitch rival as car (part) thieves, but still allows him into the group - only to see his fatal fall during an attack by Huey’s goons. Even when the mill announces phasing out Sean continues, now as a benefit for the sacked workers’ retraining.

Nostalgia; which song brings back your strongest feelings?
I think this the greatest effect which songs have and why people tend to stick to songs from their generation. I think most people recollect strong feelings from when they are young, about when they are teenagers, and there are songs which represent this. So which one song would you choose to represent this?

I’ll pitch in with mine. I was born in ‘87 and my song was released in ‘97. It was a single taken from an Australian band and it was very popular in Australia, with limited exposure internationally. It was played at the 2000 Summer Olympics at Sydney and has appeared in the films Brokedown Palace and Bootmen.

Song: Even When I’m Sleeping
Artist: Leonardo’s Bride
Album: Angel Blood


That is a fair evaluation…but not just songs. Locations of fond events, odors, tastes, photos, and many other experiences are precious.

My music memory was "Hey Jude" but the Beatles. I danced for the first time with someone that I was very fond of, and still remember that when I hear it.

torskie | Feb 04, 2007


Patience by guns n roses, plus more, but that sticks out in my mind
Kirk Lynch | Feb 04, 2007


Ahh Nostalgia- it’s not what it used to be ;)

For me, whenever I hear "Hey Jude" by the Beatles I think of my mom playing the record when I was three years old. It’s a strong association. I have never known why.

Please help fast need ratings for some James Bond' movies?
I have 3 movies: Octopusey 007, A view kill 007, The living daylights 007.
If you don’t have ratings for them please tell me which movies a 12 1/2 year old can watch and which he can’t. He loves the James Bond movies and also plays some violent games…
Call of duty 2, One of the James Bond 007 games’, and Call of duty. Please reply quickly.
Thank you very much!
I don’t need ratings for the games just telling you that he plays violent games.


i think they are all PG-13….i dont know about the games sorry

Me myself and I | Aug 10, 2007


I think in these days and times a twelve and a half year old could watch any James Bond movie. I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t see or hear anything worse than he does at his school, or especially in the movies today. Love the James Bond movies myself, and think (though no slight to the new guy) that they made a dreadful mistake getting rid of Pierce Brosnan–he was second best bond to Sean Connery.
Squidface | Aug 10, 2007


Octopusey -PG

A view kill 007 -PG

living daylights 007- PG

Its all good for him to watch :) Sky Flower | Aug 10, 2007


I have been watching James Bond movies since before I can remember. I think he will be alright.
mike33lock | Aug 10, 2007


the first two I know are PG, the last one, daylights, I think was PG-13.

What does my dream mean? I was kidnapped but not scared at all?
I had this dream where i was taken in by a guy my age to be his "sex slave." It was the middle of the night, and I was somehow persuaded by him to become his slave because i didnt want him to hurt me or my family, and i was terrified. He only wore jeans, was shirtless, and had a mean, nasty, and scary attitude. He carried me and he started running, then everything faded out and next thing i knew we were in a tennis court at my local pool where my mom usually plays tennis. There was a hut/tent thing in the corner of the court, and it was dark except for that everything was almost a tint/shade of blue because of the night. I remember him saying "this is your new home" and i looked up and the moon was brighter than usual. but, all the plants and trees outside the tennis court were darker and not affected by the moonlight. I was still scared, but at that moment i felt a weird attraction to the guy and he suggested that we go to sleep.
the next "morning", it was for some reason still the middle of the night. he never "used" me like he planned to, and never mentioned it again, but i was always a little nervous in case he changed his mind. then i wandered around outside the tennis court while the guy went off to do some work or whatever. i met a gardener, who was the only other person i’d seen so far, who told me that the guy really cared about me. i was surprised because he was always so mean to me, and didnt believe it. then the dream faded out again and then some time passed where nothing at all happened. then i remember going back to the tennis court really happy because i had come to believe what the gardener said, but i didnt want to talk to the guy because i was afraid he’d erupt into a bad mood and change his mind about using me. then next thing i knew, i was somehow in a building next to the tennis court where the guy who kidnapped me was fighting some monster who was half man half dog. i was lying on the floor just staring up and watching them in terror. he kept yelling at me to run for the open door, and i knew that i should, but i just couldnt. then when i finally stood up, the dream ended before i reached the door.

what does this dream mean? i woke up feeling elated even though i should be terrified of becoming a slave… haha

Step Brothers (2008)

IMDB rating: 6.90

Plot: Two spoiled guys become competitive stepbrothers after their single parents get hitched.

I have a secret, my family's crumbling, and it's me and my mom now, what should I do?
Over the past few years, I’d say since 8th grade things got really bad. Even before then, things were weird, like the day my house was searched for a fugitive or when my step dad had to leave for nine months on a "business" trip.

Needless to say, my childhood was a mixture: a dead biological father, loving step father, overbearing mother that I always saw as perfect, and a sometimes nice ,but mostly selfish brother.

Then, came middle school where I was sent to a new school. Sixth grade I was teased and harrassed, "gay" or "faggot" said directly to my face in attempts of intimidation at the lunch table. I found my ground and backbone, figthing words with words and made my place although, it was tough on the days I’d go home sobbing for my mom to let me change schools.

With all the verbal gaybashing, I started having thoughts. I noticed guys when I should’ve been noticing girls and my family was mostly Jamaica homophobic(a place where gays are run out their neighborhoods and a father can stand by as a mob beats his supposedly gay son).

Even at 8, my parents told me "If you or your brother ever end up gay, we’ll kill you." It wasn’t a threat I took seriously at the time because I had no idea what "gay" was ,but then came the internal battle. The guilt. The nights I spent sobbing to God to make me normal and deep down I was alone. I hated myself. I didn’t want this "thing" inside me.

Then, came that night. The night I was sitting in my mother’s room just watching a movie, my dad had lately gone on a business trip. A knock at the door and in came in some of my step brothers. My dad had been stopped on a highway, he had been caught.

Then, came the Greed wars. His family grabbed for anything he had unsuccesfully as my mother fought like a lion. They came one day while we were at school and robbed us anyway.

Then, came my mother and my brother, the yelling and shouting, his bad grades. Then, the car accident he got in with only a few scratches although the car was totaled. Then, me sobbing in front of the washing machine the day my mother wouldn’t stop yelling at us about chores. I missed my father.

I made it out of middle school scarred, still immensely optimistic and naive although without the belief that everyone in the world was "kind". High school came ,but not without my annual summer visit to Jamaica where my dead father’s side of the family still lived. I love them soo much and I got closer to my cousin.

First year came and went, drama with my close friend and soon she left the school in a cloud of smoke, the police questioning me in the office about what happened to her.

That year, last year, I accepted it, alarmingly it was Oprah who broke down my walls and looked through my soul and said, "Stop fighting it. Love yourself. Love"

Second year of high school, I made true friends, swallowed and my overtaking fear and said those words, "I’m gay" to my first person.

Today, I stand having told 15 people, only three of those family and everyone I’ve told has accepted and love me.

But, there’s still that aching hole in my heart. My mother hates gays, my brother only cares for himself and I have the best friends in the world.

How do I hold onto my mother when she’s so bent on being superior to me because she’s my mother? How can I hold onto her when we have such different opinions on trust and the world?

I want hope, love, and real connections. She relies heavily on family and trusts no one else. She tells me that wanting to be a writer won’t make me happy when I know it will. She tells me if M.L.K. couldn’t change the world, what makes me think I can.

She can be loving ,but she just doesn’t listen to what I have to say, so nothing ever changes when I need it to. We still talk of small things and lately, I just sorta stopped all together. I trust my friends more than her and even if she does accept me, how can I go back?

How I can go back to the boy I was at 10 who didn’t have all these scars? The boy who didn’t love himself totally and completely yet?

Now, I do and I’m wondering. When should I tell her? How do I keep us on decent terms until I tell(I’m thinking the day I leave for college next year when I’m 16)?


it does sound like you have been through a lot for only being 15.your mom gave you life,i am sure she loves you.look at what you have gone through in15 years.say your mom is 40.she has gone through 40 years of things you will never know about and may have scars of her own.you need to forgive your mother.true she may never want to accept you are gay.don’t bring a boy friend home for sure.let her read this and some of your answers.then you two can discuss this.wish you luck

Wow. Your story really hit me.

Honestly, I don’t have any good advice, I just wanted to tell you I think you’re very brave, and I think it’s astounding that amidst all of that sorrow and darkness, you’ve found a light within yourself.

Be a writer, you are a writer. I don’t know you at all, but I can tell that much. Keep writing, and you’re going to do something truly amazing.

If I were you though, I’d wait until I was already in college before I told her. You’ll want some distance between you so that she can deal with it without taking it out on you. I’m saying that only because my dearest friend is gay as well, and he had to wait almost fifteen years to tell his parents (his father is a baptist preacher and his mother is very much involved with the church, of course). They did disown him, but it’s their loss because they’ll never see him the way the rest of us do: beautiful, loving, and completely worthy of all the good that life has to offer. By the way, he’s a writer, too. We met in a creative writing course we were both taking in college.

Martin Luther King may have not changed the world, not fully, but he left the door open for others to continue the work. Not just him, but everyone who has tried to bring more beauty and truth to this world. Who is to say that you or anyone else can’t try to do the same?

I wish you the best of luck! Just try to survive this next year– you’ll get through it, I know you will! Keep writing and planning for your future! It’s going to get better! Don’t let her bring you down!
