Steven Spielberg’s next film #DisclosureDay looks absolutely incredible. I can barely put into words how hyped I am for a summer Spielberg film about aliens. And composed by John Williams? It just feels right. Never take this for granted, people. We have to make the most of this.
The moment Jimmy Page reminded Jack White and The Edge why they picked up guitars in the first place.
Priceless.
The film It Might Get Loud (2008) throws Jimmy Page, Jack White, and a man who willingly goes by The Edge onto a bare soundstage with nothing but stories and amplifiers.
Page straps on his battered Danelectro and uncoils "Kashmir." The Edge, wide-eyed, asks where that rhythm came from, that strange pulse. Page grins and says it was born from fooling around in DADGAD, a tuning that bends toward the sitar.
He had been sketching a piece called "Swan Song," dense and layered, when the bones of "Kashmir" surfaced at Headley Grange with Bonham pounding it into the earth. He calls itahypnotic riff, circling, cascading, brushing against dissonance until you lose yourself.
Three generations of guitar heroes stand there trading secrets like contraband and letting the noise echo in the void.

Fascinating to me how Jack White decides to flip the “generational rock star” switch every now and then on national television, and then go back to running his label or building some furniture.
“Something for us to get hyped, get the bench involved right away… it’s good for the fans as well.”

WAKE UP DEAD MAN is terrific, great trilogy, especially when you see the thread that ties it all together. I have each movie in pole position in different categories, highest compliment you can give a series like this.
In 1993, the New York Times published an article criticising Federico Fellini and some other foreign language films for being "hard work". MARTIN SCORSESE sent this incredible letter in response.
