What did you think of Walker?

Saw it a couple years back and really enjoyed it, crazy Marxist neo-western or something haha. Still have a bunch more Alex Cox movies I need to watch, like Highway Patrolman and Straight To Hell.

I really liked it. Only Alex Cox could make a movie set in the 1850s featuring helicopters, cars and cans of Coke.

Ghost Dog is one of my favorite movies. Love the slow pace and the score. It's a western about the clash of far eastern and mafia culture.

At least one good song came out of the Mobb Deep album

Against the World is exactly what I want to hear from Mobb Deep in 2025. Taj Mahal, not so much.

I like Jim Jarmusch's homage to the sink scene from Seijun Suzuki's Branded to Kill (1967).

Jarmusch is the only director to realise the brilliance of Cold Lampin' With Flavor. Neither of the Andersons could never.
