Metal Lords

[Admin M@]

I watched this last night. Not what I expected but so good!

I loved it! So much of it reminded me of specific things that happened when I was in high school, but I won't post here as I don't want to spoil anything.

The Ibanez PIA at the end was cool to see, even cooler that it's most likely Vai's personal Pia due to the Sustainer and scalloped fingerboard.

I thought all the PIA guitars were scalloped above a certain fret?

Just finished watching it. Very fun!

Thanks! I have netflix for the next month so I am going to gobble up as much good content as I can.

Liked it so much I asked my 17-year old musician son if he wanted to watch it.

I just asked him, "so, what did you think?"

His answer: "oh, I loved it!"

Parenting done right

It sure brought me back to my HS days! My GF didn't get it, but that's not really surprising with her taste in music.

Oh man, I'm like 5 minutes into this and I can already tell it's gonna be great! Thanks Matt!

I thought it was great. Pacing dragged in a few places, but overall a good addition to my metal playlist.

Tip of my tongue but: the guy in between Kirk and Scott?

Jim Carrey or Jeff Daniels? Nope...

Edit:

Just started reading the link posted by Matt. That's the writer, D.B. Weiss

 

[Grievous66]

That's DB Wise..you know him being writer and producer mostly from Game of Thrones. Him and Benioff were supposed to do some future Star Wars, but after the disaster with last season of Game of Thrones, they were doped from Star Wars and they secured themselves a deal with Netflix.. hence this movie

Just started watching it. Saw the band name. Yep, gotta watch.

 

[Dave Merrill]

Agree, thought it was fun.

DB Weiss & David Benioff = D & D = Dumb & Dumber

I'm making a rather crass remark about how I feel about their work on GoT

Will still watch Metal Lords though, who am I kidding

Yep, 21-24, but Vai’s been going for a full medium-depth scallop on a few of his guitars for the last few years.

 

[MojoBodies]

Anyone else notice his VAmp Pro under the Marshall head? I have one in an old rack sitting in closet.

 

[Renderman]

That was a lot of fun!

 

[AlGrenadine]

I watched it after having seen this topic but was quite deceived... A sort of "Saved by the bell" remake, translated into Metal-acne ro/bro-mance...
Of course the background music was great, and the guitar/drums sounds were cool

I hate the movie Rock Star. One of the worst movies of all time, imo. Precisely because it deals (terribly) with a subject near and dear to my heart. I have done zero research on this particular movie but the minute I saw the title in my NF feed; I got that same heeby-jeeby vibe I got from Rock Star all those years ago. Ugh. It sounds like it might not be that bad after all; but we'll see...
