Whilst I agree with the sentiment that they're very immature and unrefined, I'd still regard Portal as a greater artistic achievement than any song in history.

Yes. Very bad way to pay, to Klopp and the club, the confidence they had on him, they gave him a chance in the european football (worldwide scene). Also, like the dortmund
asshole 
If I was a player I would obviously want to play in one of the top teams, but Dortmund right now is one of those(!). I'm guessing they will at least pass the group stage next season in the CL, and well I would rather play there than being a bench player on a "bigger" side.
I'll give it a read, and I guarantee it changes my life far more than that Bob Dylan shite the other day.

Also, like the dortmundfan said, he's just 23 he should stick around for a couple of years more at least! We all know how it went for Sahin in a very similar scenario.asshole

Kagawa would be leaving a club that is on top to a club that isn't on top anymore. Honestly, Borussia has a better squad and a younger manager. Any player in their right mind would stay there.

There are few things that can top listening to a jamming tune while lying in your bed with your eyes closed. Only you and the orgasmic notes coming through the earphones.

Music's like McDonalds. It's not very wholesome or filling, it doesn't require much talent to reproduce, and most of all, it's completely accessible. Millions of people eat McDonalds everyday and enjoy it at the time, but that doesn't make it good food. I'll eat McDonalds and enjoy it, and I'll listen to music and enjoy it.
Going to have a late night cuppa and a sandwich to spark this mind into action.
Oh, and can we agree that David Bowie is the pinnacle of all music. I've got a vivid memory of going into my mum's bedroom when I was about 6, hearing 'changes' playing and dancing my arse off. Listening to 'Heroes' now with my headphones cranked up I get the same feeling.
Not until Ferguson leaves. Then it's 'hold onto ya butts' time.

It's on my Lovefilm rental list, I haven't followed the development enough to know if I really, definitely want it and as usual with UK games, it'll be 20 quid in a couple of weeks because it's not CoD or FIFA.
No.
edit: I was going to post a link to some Jeff Buckley here but I know you'd have just ripped it apart and left me feeling cold and empty inside.

Musical quality isn't only limited to your McDonalds comparison. Once in a while there's a track or an album worthy of a Michelin star. This restaurant however has a menu that won't appeal to the masses like a fast food joint would, but if you can enjoy a Terrine of baby beetroot, buffalo mozzarella, horseradish sorbet or maybe even a Warm oak-smoked confit of salmon, cucumber and wasabi instead of a hamburger and a milkshake, then you're in for a treat.
I don't think I could see New Order without Peter Hook. My favorite thing about JD/NO might be his bass lines.
Arnie m8 I love reading your opinions but only because I think totally differently. People always ask whether or not you'd prefer to be blind or deaf, and I always say blind. I can't imagine life without music
don't get your panties in a bunch

I think you're underestimating my knowledge and taste in movies.
He's good at some movies, bad at others. I'm not a fan of his, but he's done some great movies.
It's amazing how fresh and innovative Burton and Depp have managed to stay over the ears.
Bad is more common these days unfortunately.
I actually laughed when Helena Bonham Carter popped up in the Dark Shadows trailer. Then I wept as I realised millions of people will actually pay to watch this.
unfortunately, yes
I think he can be a good actor. But he seems to be phoning it in these days, especially with the Pirates movies. He was genuinely entertaining in the first one but I didn't really enjoy any of the sequels.
He should also stop doing movies with Tim Burton.
He's nowhere near De Niro levels though.
That new one where he's a Vampire looks terrible.
Loved him to bits in Pirates of the Caribbean though. <3 <3

Tim Burton is a terrible director.

Hell no, De Niro may have just phoned it in for the last few years, but his portfolio is incredible. Depp's done one or two good films. He was the best thing in POTC though.
It pains me to see how bad De Niro and Pacino have become.
Pacino was good in Scent of a Woman and since then he's tried to do better than that performance.
Unfortunately all he does is SHOUT REALLY LOUD.
And Johnny Depp wishes he could have had a career half as illustrious as Pacino or De Niro.

Have you seen Donnie Brasco, Dead Man or Blow? He certainly has the ability to be a great actor.
Undoubtedly, he's one of the best actors of all time, but he hasn't been in a good film since the late 90s.
De Niro's career kind of ended after Scorsese found DiCaprio.

The food at the wedding was disappointing.
Someone give me good Kagawa news.

He's off to Arsenal.
I'd agree with this. He still has lots of time.
Dude aren't you like 18? You're a high school student for fuck's sakes. Still a baby, and you're talking about a video game you just happened to have played being a better artistic achievement than any song in history, of which there are millions. And until a week ago you had never even listened to a Bob Dylan song! You're talking out your ass I'm afraid.
Then again, I think I remember saying a bunch of pretentious and wrong things when I was 18, too.
Agreed ^
Get hyped for tomorrow guys. So much potential drama in the last day of the season.
Though personally I'm not expecting anything. Damn London clubs
Newcastle win, Arsenal draw and my beloved Spurs lose. Rumours of Modric and Bale to Chelsea and Man City/Barca crop up...
3rd Arsenal
4th Newcastle
5th Spurs
...then Chelsea win the CL.
:-(
He was robbed at the Oscars, plus he didn't even get nominated for his performance in The Departed. Absolutely ridiculous.

RVP's wife talking about how happy they are in London and how much they love Arsenal. I still wince when I hear that dreaded end of season talk though.

SAF and Mike Phelan were at the Dortmund game.
So we can probably deduce that he at least knows who Kagawa is.
I think we're in for him. We'll just have to see who he signs for.
