Huh?

The other night, my girlfriend and I noticed a movie on our DISH that just read "Movie." Intriqued, we decided to watch it. Not long into it, I realized that I was watching a movie about Kurt Cobain's life, well, not that, but inspired by it. I was watching Gus Van Sant's awful movie Last Days. Let me just tell you how bad this movie is. Cobain would blow his brains out, if he was still alive, after watching it. I stopped watching after 20 minutes. I couldn't watch anymore. It was terrible.

What has happened to Gus Van Sant. He made great movies at once, like Drugstore Cowboy and To Die For. Then, he got all high and mighty when he made Good Will Hunting, I guess. Then, he remade Psycho and Gerry, which is like Waiting for Godot in the desert. It's interesting if you ever felt like watching two guys try to jump up on a rock without achieving it for 15 fucking minutes. Don't even get me started on Elephant.

And why make a movie about Kurt Cobain's life or inspired by it? Kurt Cobain was a no talent hack. Sure, Nevermind was cool and "Smells Like Teen Spirit" was great, but how many of you Gen Xers have listend to some of the tunes after all these years. My God, they were awful. What were we thinking? Everybody I know owned a Hootie and the Blowfish album and after their moment of clarity, they said, "What the fuck was I thinking?" Why can't we admit the same thing with Nirvana.

Nirvana will never stand the test of time like other bands, because they didn't do much with the time they were given. Kurt Cobain wasn't the John Lennon for Generation X. He was a dirty piece of white trash who had his moment in the sun and couldn't do anything else.

How come people don't praise Joe Strummer or Joey Ramone or Steve Ray Vaughn or Jerry Garcia or any other musicians that have died but played longer than a few years on MTV?

I'm sick of Kurt Cobain. It's been 12 years. Time to move on.

Same for Tupac, too.
