Billy Strings, Alison Krauss, and ‘O Brother’ Alumni Mark 25 Years of Hit Soundtrack
@Starcade It's hard for me to come up with a list of movies that I "hate" or that are my "least favorites" because I usually pre-select them out so that I do not end up watching any such movies.
For me, the list would be :movies that I started to watch but couldn't finish" (which are movies that I usually turn off w/in the 1st 10-15 minutes).
Off the top of my head these are a few of them:
1) #GrandBudapestHotel (2014)
2) #InBruges (2008) not sure I could watch #Banshees but not this one.
3) #Her (2013)
4) #AfterYang (2021)
5) #HomeAlone (1990)
6) #OBrotherWhereArtThou (2000)
7) #MenWhoStareAtGoats (2009)
8) #TheTerminal (2004)
9) #TicketToParadise (2022)
10) #BillyMadison (1995)
It's no surprise that certain actors are featured in more than one of these but that doesn't mean I don't like other movies of theirs.
There is also a long list of movies that I like (or at least don't hate) that I've seen & rewatched in their entirely many times over. 🤷♂️
There's no accounting for "taste." 😉
Damn! We're in a tight spot!

Do y'all do #MusicWomenWednesday here on the Wafrns? I feel like it's mostly a Mastodon thing, not even Bluesky, but I really don't need an excuse to talk about my favorite lady musicians…
1) Jennifer Rannells - "Distance"
I discovered & fell in love with this album (released in 2002) as a young teen back when you could still discover music on CDBaby by searching for "influences" and "sounds like" and such (the same feature I miss from MySpace!) and it's really one of my most enduring best-loved albums. I just adore the flowing, intricate piano and her lyrics are insidiously evocative and her voice is enchanting.

2) "Obligatory" self-promo… 🤪 ("Didn't Leave Nobody but the Baby" from O Brother Where Art Thou?)
Recorded this with the assistance of my trusty TC-Helicon VoiceLive Touch. There's only two vocal tracks; the harmonies are all generated electronically in real time as I'm singing.
(Check out my other tracks on SoundCloud, too! 💖)

Harrie is a smartass. Harrie cries a lot. Harrie thinks too much. Harrie always wants to start fights at midnight. Harrie would like to be a snail living under a mushroom. Harrie is fucking terrified.
🚨 Movie of the Day: O Brother, Where Art Thou? 🚨
Just finished it for the first time — what a damn mythic, musical, Dapper Dan–soaked fever dream.
Final rating: 4.5/5
🎶 Favorite scene: Tommy at the crossroads
👨👧 Favorite moment: Clooney reuniting with his daughters
🌀 Vibe: Cool Hand Luke meets Homer meets Southern Gothic slapstick
