Oh.. my.. god.. 
What an intense movie, I liked it a lot though.. my older brother on the other hand did not, I think it may have scared him a little bit  I'm glad I finally got it off my chest.. I've been wanting to watch this movie for some time now.. I saw it once when I was a little me, but surely I didn't understand it then.. and to be honest still don't completely understand it but more now then before  |

Heh! |

A lot of it is based on Syd Barrett's depressed mental state, which would explain it.
When I was a little kid, my dad and uncle were watching The Wall, and the flower scene came on, my dad went to the bathroom and my uncle called me in, "A cartoon is on!" I ran in and watched the... cartoon. I had nightmares for weeks. What a great uncle. 
Tommy, I liked, but I don't see how that would really freak anyone out. I like it because I like the Who, but it's almost TOO corny. My favorite part (won't spoil the movie if you haven't seen it): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivfoVCQM47U Just because hearing The Who, Eric Clapton, and Arthur Brown in one song... unreal, and such a cool rock groove.

I wanted to and tried, jeeese! that kept me paranoid the whole time. My friend beside me started freaking me out and getting tense.
It was quit the experience. Those hammers, that black bird, the intensity of the music i mean phenomenal. |

Watch Trainspotting, Requiem for a dream, and Fight club. Then you can say: what the hell happened? |

As long as you did not shave your nipples off. That's about the only part I remember of the movie and the depressing feeling afterward. |

They made a pseudo rock opera out of a bunch of Beatles songs. I LIKED IT!!!!
I especially dug the cameos from Joe Cocker and Bono.
