As far as I know, The Wire wasn't cancelled. It was finished. I could be wrong though, and I don't want to look it up out of fear of spoilers (haven't seen the whole thing yet)

I'm not familiar with any of the bands you mentioned, and "Melody, simplicity, riffs, and pretty vocals" is not exactly my thing, but if you're absolutely open to anything... First off, Love - Forever Changes is more or less the album, regardless of category. YouTube- Love - The Red Telephone...

My favourite artist would be Devin Townsend, whom kantor referred to in his original post. Would "ladetswinge" by any chance be Norwegian for "let it swing"?

What I would recommend to you is City of Caterpillar. They play a post-hardcore/post-rock/screamo-hybrid that is reminiscent of the much more famous band Envy, but better. YouTube- City Of Caterpillar - And You're Wondering How...

I don't really have any ideas, I just wanted to say that this is really damn cool and it's nice to see someone draw inspiration from my favourite musician :)

Well, whatever my mood is, Love always works: But if I'm in a bad mood and need to cheer up, what works best is something that reflects that mood. Depending on whether the nature of my bad mood is anger or sadness, different music is required. Anger: Sadness: And something halfway...

Essentially what most pop-punk does.

I don't know why I care more about animals than humans, but whatever the reason is, it's not this. Babies and small children can't necessarily fight back/didn't necessarily have it coming, but I'm just as happy to see them die horribly anyway.

Code Geass is amazing, too. But I would say it's more entertaining than artistic. It's fanservice-y, bounces between genres wildly to entertain the viewer and doesn't have a coherent mood like Death Note, Monster or LoGH. It's an amazingly fun animé, but it feels... I dunno, adulterated? Both...

Monster is overrated, in my opinion. It's not bad, but everything that Monster does, LoGH does better, with the exception of the art. They are very similar in that they're both about relentlessly holding on to one ideal, but LoGH does it with an intricate, engaging, sprawling plot whereas...

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, Code Geass, Legend of Galactic Heroes. The latter two are especially similar to Death Note. LoGH is 110 episodes, but probably the only series of that length worth the time. I'd write about these three series in greater detail, but... lazy.

This is more or less what my defence of mainstream/pop music had amounted to if I had written it. Many years ago I complained to a friend about the prevalence of the verse-chorus-verse structure, to which he replied that "it's a very good structure". I know a lot of people with sophisticated...

I had four friends. One died in a car accident, two moved away and one moved in with me. Now I have zero friends.

Sturmabtei is really cool.

Like NeverAmI I have my biases but try to limit them. I hate close-mindedness and inflexibility and always try to be open-minded and flexible myself, but it's generally part of my nature to the point that I don't really need to actually try. Some things that may result in dislike on my behalf...

Some guy whose taste in movies I worship to a great extent and whose taste in music I worship to a lesser extent said something along the lines of "Even if the Beatles were actually good, they would still be overrated". That is pretty much exactly how I feel about them, even though I like them...

Well, s/he's very fond of this song: YouTube- Highwayman - Johnny Cash (the highwaymen) It's not horrible, but, it's one of three songs I've ever heard that person play (the other two are Simon & Garfunkel - Sound of Silence and Dream Theater - Eternal Sacrifice) but that one song has been...

Dogville, Nói Albínói, Stalker, There Will Be Blood and Synecdoche, New York are all fantastic movies with intelligent main characters.

I think I got just about every one of them wrong.

I'd be willing to do some mixtaping in 3 weeks, when I finally return to the present.

Cube 2 is an absolute joke. It's so bad, so bad it's actually good. I'd even recommend it, since it doesn't have enough to do with the first movie to 'taint' it. The real atrocity is Cube Zero, the prequel. It's a mediocre movie, much more similar in tone to the first movie than Cube 2, but it...

Not here, that's true. If only reality was like intpforum...

Hi, and welcome to the forum. A female INTP? We should make- *mouthgags self*

Oh, totally forgot about Stalker. That one's great too.

Existential films: Synecdoche, New York Kairo On human nature and morality: Dogville A Clockwork Orange There Will Be Blood A few obvious ones, as it is a bit difficult to draw a distinction between what's a philosophical film and what isn't. You can probably find a philosophy in anything.

Beyond its interesting gimmicks, I found Sukiyaki Western Django to be quite boring. Takashi Miike has done much better.

The best Western you haven't already heard of:

Irrefutable proof of the accuracy of this test ;) I'm apparently intelligent, dignified, philosophical, yadda yadda. I can't say any of the pictures really appealed to me.

I got G'Kar. I've never heard of him, but it was not what I had expected. I would have expected Data or Spock or something and not this villainous-looking guy I'm not familiar with. Ceaselessly struggling for a well-deserved redemption, you carefully arrange your alliances and energies...

Yang Wenli from Legend of Galactic Heroes certainly has INTP tendencies. The titular character from Nói albínói seems IXTP.

Too many, way too many to name. But I'll name some. Takashi Miike is an extremely hit-and-miss director, but also an extremely weird one, and at his best he's just about better than anyone, so he has quite a few scenes that are among the greatest I've ever seen. The ending to Dead or Alive...

I've never felt like a hero, at least. I try to be kind, understanding and helpful to the people I care about, and that's the full extent of my heroism I guess. As it happens, I also don't have a shred of courage in me.

Oh, I forgot about this one. I've been meaning to watch it partly because Philip Seymour Hoffman has a lead role in it and I'm a big fan of PSH. Thank you for the reminder.

Movies can't scare me, but I like horror movies anyway because horror movie imagery appeals to me. But the two movies that have come the closest to scaring me, which still isn't very close at all, are Audition and The Thing (the 1982 remake by John Carpenter) Other fantastic horror movies...

I used to have tinnitus occasionally in my left ear, but now I have it constantly, still in my left ear. I can only hear it when it's really quiet, so there are only two major consequences of this affliction to me: 1. It bothers me when I'm trying to sleep. 2. I have a pair of closed...

The other three are debatable, but Charlie Kaufman especially so. Have you seen Synecdoche, New York? I honestly have a hard time imagining that being the product of anything but an INXP, let alone an INFJ.

^Lustmord and your avatar go hand in hand.

Hm, this show was made by a guy named Levi, that's awesome. You have attracted my interest and I just finished Prison Break (which was altogether pretty bad, but the character of T-Bag kept me watching) so I might look into it.

Saffy is younger than Chimera.

I have an iPod but I don't use it with iTunes so I don't know if I can check my play count on it... And I don't use it that much anyway. But on my last.fm profile, my most played song is Le Poinçonneur Des Lilas by Serge Gainsbourg, with 33 plays... Well, you've never heard of that song, so I'll...

It was alright. There was nothing in this story that was new to me. I also felt that it was naive and excessively idyllic.

I will tell you about perhaps my most unusual dream, which also happens to be my most frequently recurring dream. This is really hard to explain. There are shapes. Different shapes of different colours. They almost look like masks, but they have impossible shapes that couldn't exist in reality...

This conversation reminds me of something I saw a member with a very low post count say somewhere, that "Vulcans are illogical". His reasoning was that it was not logical not to take emotion into consideration, or something to that effect. Also, "an eye for an eye" is an incredibly stupid...

Re: INTPs appreciate wierdness? Yes, I love weird. Weird is beautiful. Sometimes.

I thought the Jesin account seemingly responsible for the incident was in fact a fusion of all administrator accounts; for an example, the photo albums shown were actually Anthile's. And the post count may have been the sum of all administrator's post counts, though I did not do the math on...

Baldur's Gate. Yeah, really. I played that game when I was like... young. That game was a vital part of my process of learning english. Chip's Challenge. Age of Empires. Some SNES games.

Oh, this movie is wonderful. I totally fell in love with Leaven.
