GN'R references in movies and on TV

[anythinggoes]

i didnt get it... but it looked very similar to the shirt with "G & R" on top of the star with 2 dragons underneith it and some flames found on the official website.

ok its a vintage style 2002 tshirt called dragons it is available from www.grindstore.com

as im watching re runs of Full house, one of the girls on there was talking about the music awards and she said "i bet you 5 marshmellows atleast one guy from guns n roses falls off the stage"

ive seen gnr mentions before so thought id post it lol

[grog mug]

I bet Joey and Saggot plugged in the gear down in the basement and started jammin out right after....any GN'R mention is good even if its on cheesy ass early 90's shows like Full House.

[Manuplon]

Did you mention the girl from Cape Fear hears "Patience" during a scene...?

Well i read a couple pages and haven't seen this one yet:  At the very end of Mallrats, Seconds before the credits roll, jay and silent bob are walking down the street and a weezer song comes on with a line that says "izzy, slash and axl rose..."
  Thats all i know from the song because its the only line worth noting and Weezer sucks (even if they are one of Axl's favorite bands; Axl may be the messiah, but even he can't save Weezer)

[Lafayettecopssuck]

Weezer is pretty much the best band of all time.   

[Jacksonsbro]

They are a solid band...sorry OT
But they needed the backing

[samoice]

suprised no one mentioned Slashs mention and sweet child playing on conan o brain the other day ... they had a big air purifier with slashes hat on and a cigarette lol..

That Weezer song is called 'Suzanne'...

The line is: '... even Izzy, Slash and Axl Rose. When I call you put them all on hold'

I don't know if its been mentioned yet, But Axl was mentioned in the film True Lies.  Tom Arnold's character basically tells Arnold that kids are a lost cause these days when Axl Rose is their idol.  Thought it was pretty funny.

I saw an old episode of FULL HOUSE early this morning that mentioned GUNSNROSES at the VMAS.THey said that they thought that GNR would fall off the stage.

I posted this in the movie thread,but thought that I could post it here too



In the move Just My Luck I noticed a fun thing. A guy who worked behind the stage when a band were about to play said that he used to be the fill-in drummer for Whitesnake. He also had an Appetite t-shirt on,and  thought that all the guys in the pop/rock band that were about to play looked all the same

I was so excited to post the Weezer/Mallrats reference but I guess I was too slow. But since we've diverged a few times from TV and Movies, I got one that hasn't come up yet. NOFX (my 2nd favorite band) mentions Guns in 2 songs.

in "El Lay" on the album "S & M Airlines": "Get outta my way. Can't you see I'm from LA. I met Slash. I got a Rose tattoo."

in "We Got Two Jealous Agains" on "The War On Errorism": Fat Mike sings about loving his wife because she has similiar taste in music which gives him doubles of all his favorite vinyl but then adds "What's with this Underdog, and this GN'R EP? I don't think Hanoi Rocks, and I don't want your Paul Stanly next to my Subhumans Gatefold. I'm not trying to be a jerk, but I don't think this record merger is gonna work"

...i guess Mrs. Fat Mike owns Live @#$% Like A Suicide. hahaha

Song title similarities:

They Might Be Giants have a song called "Welcome To The Jungle" and The Arrogant Sons Of Bitches have a song called "November Rain" niether one bares any similarities to the GN'R songs.

I don't know if it's been mentioned yet, but I'm watching the movie Havoc right now, and some ho who got arrested and is sitting in jail said something about fucking Axl...or something. I wasn't really paying attention

More than likely he's referring to Lies since Like a Suicide is so rare

I don't know if its been mentioned yet, But Axl was mentioned in the film True Lies.? Tom Arnold's character basically tells Arnold that kids are a lost cause these days when Axl Rose is their idol.? Thought it was pretty funny.

"You're not her parents. Axl Rose and Madonna are" or something like that...

There's a sweet new movie coming up on the Sci Fi Channel called "MegaSnake."  It's packed with GNR references...

*Two of the main characters are snake-handling brothers named Les Daniels (Les Paul + Jack Daniels) and Duff. 

*One character calls another one "Bumblefoot" when he trips and falls. 

*A guy pines over his lost love, Erin, while discussing how beautiful her smile and blue eyes were. 

*There's an abused dog named Izzy (a dog they liked to beat).

There are others, but I can't remember them all.  Plus, lots of references to Lynyrd Skynyrd, Alice Cooper, Rush and the Drive by Truckers.  That movie is a stroll through rock history.  But mainly GNR.

Glad you know your own work. 

Just like that band who's "covered" the new GN'R songs.
