  1. I just feel bad for the tour crew who have to deal with that wire afterwards

  5. The only thing I don't like about both of those is that he either dies or is dead. I was not expecting that with the Nurse Jackie scene and he did a damn good job because it felt real enough to scare the shit outta me! But yeah the scene from Haunted was also good! Wait, I'm looking at the years of all these things and I feel like instead of steadily improving he went the opposite direction until OW. Maybe his performance is just really dependent on the quality of the director? This is only based on what I've watched but this is how I see it... 2002 Haunted - Pretty Good 2012 Nurse Jackie - Pretty Good 2012 This is 40 - Not so good 2014 Like Sunday, Like Rain - Not so good (although this movie is great btw) 2016 Ordinary World - Pretty Good He drew the wrong symbol. Should've been an infinity sign.

  6. Oh I love his Nurse Jackie scene! The scene from Haunted is good too but you're right, he's gotten noticeably better with each role he takes which is why I so look forward to seeing him challenge himself more.

  7. Thanks to the video Billie made I'm now going through a phase of listening to Troubled Times a lot. I've always liked that song, but the last few days I've been listening to it 4/5 times on the trot on my iPod. In no particular order TT, Still Breathing, Bang Bang and Forever Now are my top 4 from Rev Rad.

  8. Can't find it now, but that pic of Mike "pissing" in Tre's mouth and Tre looking way too happy about it is pretty damn weird.

  11. Wow, six times? That's dedication! Yeah I don't think a teenager would really get anything out of this film haha. I'm not 40 but I've been out of my teens for awhile now and I tend to connect with movies that target older audiences, but this one not so much, haha. The pretentious former film student in me (sorry) couldn't get past parts of it. But at the end of the day I didn't hate it, I just desperately want to tweak it. And everyone gets different things out of movies so it's good that some people are connecting with this one in a positive way. Haha, that's a weird description for it. I agree that I got a kick out of that. Like I genuinely forgot it was him and that he's hugely successful. It felt so real! I actually liked that aspect of it though because it made him seem more human and "normal". Not that I don't love his wild side, but it's always fun to see the other side. I actually watched this before I saw his scenes in other movies, etc. so I didn't realize how much he improved as an actor until I went back. To me, this and the Nurse Jackie scenes are his strongest filmed performances.

  12. I kind of liked the movie because of Billie, but I agree that the plot is cringeworthy. Also, it's interesting to learn that you can overcome a midlife-crisis in only one day. Good to know.

  13. I hope the winner is someone who is a huge fan of Green Day, and not someone who only likes Basket Case, American Idiot and "that I walk alone song".. Nothing wrong with being a casual fan but this prize is so awesome I want it to be truly appreciated by whoever wins! So bummed that I can't participate in this contest.

  14. I gained a new appreciation of the song because of the video. Same thing happened with Rev Rad for me, the videos made me like the songs more. (I already loved BB and SB before the vids). I can't wait for the FN vid.

  19. I agree with 100% I love little supporting role that Billie did from Nurse Jackle..(I never seen any of that show) until Billie were on it,I saw on Netflix few days ago and couldn't realize him when walk in scene of church..meeting Jackle and then make out with her and haunted is very chilling! I hope Billie can more acting role in future maybe A.I movie start production after RevRad tour?

  21. Absolutely stunning pictures! He posted just the water slide video first then it disappeared (but I was able to play it by going back) and I thought he'd accidentally posted to "the billiejoearmstrong". The caption was something like "sometimes a waterslide puts life into perspective", lmao.

  23. This is why I say the movie is very relatable if you're of the age and have kids. The "still okay" part is the message that at some point in your life, you start living for your kids' futures and come to terms with your own past. It doesn't mean music can't still be a part of his life (he puts up a sign at the guitar shop for kids guitar lessons, he gets his daughter the guitar you know he wanted and he offers to start a band with her) but your focus shifts so that it's no longer all about you. That may not sound uplifting when you're 20, but it can be a very satisfying thing at 40 to come to terms with. That was the message of the movie. ETA: Further I think the movie did a good job of showing how his life was now markedly different from that of his single friends who still only focus on themselves. Sad and confusing for him at first, but in the end he sees the good.

  24. Yeah I was going to say I think the OP missed that bit. I like the movie. The script isn't perfect but it felt relateable for the over 40 set, just with how your life could turn out different from what you thought but still okay. I love his acting in it, he's natural and funny and great with one on one dialogue. I very much want to see him try something else.

  25. Perhaps I should have said it's unintentionally hilarious There are so many little things that look a lot like "plot simplifications" (that moment when he fishes out a capo out of his pocket because that's what you carry around 24/7) and then there's the whole story - that's as if it was written by a kid. Everybody acts like an idiot and it doesn't seem very realistic, but I found that funny too. It's a silly movie but that fit Billie's acting, so it's ok. I enjoyed it. Actually I was thinking about OW this morning. Yesterday I saw an Elvis movie, and let me tell you, they knew how to make the fangirls happy. The whole movie is just Elvis being sexy, talking in a raspy voice (just got outta the state pen y'know) ofc wearing short sleeves, singing or laying around in bed. It was the corniest thing I have EVER seen, but I totally see how awesome it was. If we were in the 50's, I'll be one of the screaming fangirls at his shows, I have no doubt. Why I'm saying this is that watching that film, I came to the conclusion that Billie needs to make another movie, but this time with a less dorky story/character. I never really care about his acting but it could be pretty awesome to see him on screen again. Now I hope the AI thing happens and he gets to play St. Jimmy. I never cared about it or wanted it to happen but hot damn, imagine something like The Wall but with AI and broadway Billie in it. That would be so rad.

  33. That's even smaller than the 1234Go records shows. Sounds like a kick for the band. They'd probably love to play Eggplant's backyard again. Once upon a time they begged to play people's houses. Now they're a grand prize. πŸ˜ŠπŸ’š

  36. Someone in this forum has to win this and invite us all over to L.A. It'll be a blast. Edit: I checked the terms of condition, it is limited to people from some Southern California counties. And concerning the private Green Day gig it says: "A performance for winner and twenty (20) friends at the winner’s residence (execution and location to be approved by KROQ and the band), tentatively scheduled for September 19, 2017" This is like the best prize ever, I wish I could participate. Fuck the car, but I want that gig.

  40. It's a beautiful thing every time they do it but the No Racism.. chant from Omaha makes me really proud of them, and of being a fan. Like somebody commented on Billie's latest insta post, the fact that they're using their voice/platform to promote positive change is so important and what makes them so real and admirable. Just scrolling through a bunch of those comments is pretty inspiring, as well.

  41. Yeah, St. Jimmy, Christian's Inferno...no edge or personality at all. And certainly nothing musically ambitious about a nine minute punk song. *sigh* I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. And you've got it backwards, he doesn't sound like every pop punk band out there, they sound like him: Billie inspired a lot of imitators, so a lot of pop punk bands now try and sound like GD. But GD are the innovators. That's how you get inducted into the RandRHoF baby.

  42. I can't believe it's officially been a year since we got Bang Bang I'll never forget hearing it on the radio for the first time, what a great day... and then having it on repeat for days and not getting sick of it. Still not tired of it now, whenever I put it on it brings back the happy feeling of hearing it for the first time

  43. I didn't fall in love with it until a few years ago, but now I can sometimes tear up while listening to it. And seeing it live for the first time was like an out of body experience. I just kept looking around watching everyone singing and waving their arms telling myself to drink it all in.

  44. I couldnt agree more - when I listen to it I am just in aw at how friggin great it is - the phrasing - everything is perfect. Its like 9 mins stands still for me.

  45. Jesus of Suburbia is a great song, pretty much all Green Day fans can agree on that. Sometimes though it just feels like I truly understand and can appreciate what a fucking masterpiece it really is. Every time I listen to it recently I get chills. I love the fact that I've known and loved this song for 13 years, yet it still catches me by surprise with how amazing it is. God I love this band.
