Terminal City Ricochet

Just picked this up. Acting is terrible, dialogue is terrible. The message is right on point.
Which makes me think the Acting is supposed to be sub par.
crazy how shit that was portrayed in this movie as campy tongue in cheek has come to pass.

At one point the new casters are talking about some horrific terrorist event and a politician comes on the tv and says, “you should go out and buy something buying always makes you feel better after events like these!” never has a politician had the balls to be this brazen and it was done as a joke sorta but then 12 years later ENTER, W!!

I couldn’t help but think of W talking on the tv after 9/11 about how you should take your family down to Disney World or buy that car you’ve been looking at…

he coulda’ been one of the bad actors in this movie!

ONe thing I though was funny was they have painted on walls all over the place “NO STANDING ZONE”

Made me think of the “Freedom of speech Zones” that they had back when W was campaigning.

Cool little indie flick from 20 years back though!

Is that on DVD now? I had the soundtrack from Alternative Tentacles and even the movie poster. I always wanted to see this film since I used to be a rabid Jello-worshipper, but it was so friggin’ obscure that I never even saw it.

Yeah came out on Tuesday along with the widower (another jello movie) pretty good deal too the dvd and the cd for 15 bucks. Widower is the same way cd and dvd for 15 bucks. You can get it at the A.T. site.

Jello? As in Jello Biafra?

Yeah, Biafra. I’ve never even heard of “The Widower”. I used to have a ridiculously silly Jello/DK collection that had just about everything and anything he’d ever had anything to do with, including a bunch of dumb movies that he had cameos in . . . “Tapeheads”, “Highway 61”, “Skullhedface”.

Eventually (around '99 or so) I just stopped giving a crap as there were only so many 3 disc box sets of him saying “Censorship is bad! Our government is bad. War is bad. Corporations are bad!” that I could handle.

Anyway, thanks for the tipoff, Grumps!

Yea me too. I never sold mine off though. Those are my trophies. Yeah I had never heard of the widower either, but it was released with terminal and I got a Soundtrack with it and apparently Jello is in it so I figured what the hell.

Yeah his Spoken word has gotten pretty bad. II, III and IV are very good but then they pretty much get worse as subsequent releases were released. The last one was particularly bad. Although, I liked the title. “In the Grip of Official Treason” but it was all about Hurricane Katrina, and over all he’s kinda boring in that I feel like I’m well in front of him as far as news goes.

“if Evoltuion is Outlawed Only Outlaws Will Evolve” was kinda of a let down. “Become the media” had a couple decent spots but over all was just bad “Machine Gun in the Clowns Hand” even worse. and “Grip of Official Treason” even worse. Just sad, hope he gets his mojo back.

Eventually (around '99 or so) I just stopped giving a crap as there were only so many 3 disc box sets of him saying “Censorship is bad! Our government is bad. War is bad. Corporations are bad!” that I could handle.

He certainly has become quite irrelevant/redundant. Although His music has gotten better. Him with the Melvins was great. “Guantanamo School Of medicine” is probably the best thing he’s done since his Collab with D.O.A. (which I adore) Seems like his spoken word and and music can never exist decently together.

Anyway, thanks for the tipoff, Grumps!

No problem.

Yeah, sounds like I dropped off about the same time as you did. I remember liking “No More Coccoons”, and “I Blow Minds” quite a bit. “Gift Police” had a few moments on it. Then “Evolution” was just the nail in the coffin for me. I listened to a sample or two on some of the subsequent ones but it was just unbearable.

I’ve liked pretty much all of his music, though. I’ve got most of my old vinyl, except a few pieces that I’d gifted away here and there.

Some day I’ll probably just sell off the whole lot of it, so if you are interested in some really weird and/or very rare stuff just let me know.

I am not a fan of jello with no means no. Jello with mojo nixon grew on me and now I really like it. But not a fan of bedtime for democracy or frankenchrist…

As far as aspoken word I’m a little too young for no more cocoons. I know it now, but its way out of date

I will probably do that. We should compare jello catalogues. I have list of all my cds some where here on prongs.

Unfortunately, about 10 years ago I was retarded and sold all my bootleg CD’s. My brain was still stuck in old-guy mode and I equated vinyl with collectible and CD’s as a bit of a joke since they were easier for people to make (even though the packaging and stuff was really cool on some of them).

Of course, I was dead wrong about the CD’s and a few years later when Ebay was in full bloom I’d see some of the rarities on there for like $50 a piece.

Anyway, here’s a few weird items that I’d taken photos of for someone a few years back . . .
