You know, The Wall was a pretty OK movie but it was kind of dark and morbid, obsessive and although the animation was kind of cool, I don't know if it's the kind of movie I'd want to see a bunch of times. I guess they were haunted by WW II. I guess I am too, when I think about it. It must have been pretty harsh if you were in London. They were being bombed by the Nazis. Horrible days....

Yeah.
Bad times.

I just watched the DVD again today. (While working. DON'T TELL the BOSS!)

You know what the film was about though don't you?

I guess it depends on your experiences and personality. For some reason The Wall has always really moved me. I still get goose bumps watching it and what he is feeling.

I owned it on VHS and then DVD :)

No, I guess not. Saw it a long time ago. What was it about?

Roger Waters claims it was a fictional character and was from when the he realized he wanted (and tried to) to beat a fan and that their was distance between the band and the fans.

I think it was much more than that though

Yeah, it was a semi autobiographical story about Waters. It even talks about this on the back of the DVD I have.

It is sad how much I like and relate with Pink Floyd's music (mainly Water lyrics).

I think that Pink Floyd did a lot of much better music than what stuck in my mind from The Wall, which was the song "The Wall" and I guess some other stuff. It was their attempt at getting programatic, dramatic, and some other bands were doing things like that. Such as The Who with Tommy.

You know, I drove my wife to hating Pink Floyd. She says that "she has heard them too much and they are too depressing".

:(

Yeah, well they can be.

Thankfully I don't have a wife (I guess thats a good thing?) and my dog doesn't care one way or the other. ;)

Pink Floyd be the shiznit. I think it's pretty cool that Korn did a cover of one of Floyd's songs. Not the same feel to it though. Get off on Pink Floyd everybody!
