Yep…as long as I can pay my bills just listen to music all day, take literally NOTHING negative home with you, and sleep like a baby every night. Heck, I might even develop real hobbies again. But all that will have to wait until I’m 65 I guess…
I completely agree. Of course Jack Black is immediately hilarious with his superoverthetop schtick which he manages to execute flawlessly and draw huge gut laughs but Todd's performance is objectively at least as good and of course much subtler & nuanced and IMO is the best performance in the film and one of my favorite awkward & quirky characters ever ever
Me too, doubledoor, metro club, and second hand tunes record stores, one in Evanston and another in Lincoln park. Hard to believe it was more than 30 years ago
I had a Chicago hero like that when I was your age. Michael Bloomfield. Epic blues guitarist with Paul Butterfield, Electric Flag, Super Sessions 1 AND 2. O.D'd in his car.
"I don't wanna hear sad bastard music, I just want something I can ignore." Used that line a few times when something awful is playing in the background but people just don't get it. XD
Years ago I got drunk and in a moment of weakness bought a Belle and Sebastian cd. Listened to the first three songs and threw the cd in the bin. I’ve never regretted that decision.
My first encounter was a film where he was just a background character and I didn't realize it was him until years later when some scene or other popped into my head. He's not doing his usual stuff, so he's really forgettable in the role (the whole movie is forgettable), but it was still funny when it clicked that he was in it. Airborne's the name of the movie - think I saw it on Showtime or HBO way back when.
I swear I spent as much time in the record stores and bookstores in Bellingham, WA when I was a Uni student at WWU in the mid-90s as I did in my classes. Sadly, all my favorite old haunts in "the 'ham" either went out of business or literally went up in flames years ago (RIP, Avalon Records 😢🔥).
4:10 "I can't fire them. I hired these guys for three days a week and they just started showing up, everyday, that was _four years ago."_ I love this line. It perfectly encapsulates just how equally pathetic and oddly familial the trio are.
If I was a millionaire I’d make a fake record store just so I can hang out in it. And have music playing in the background. While I’m siting on a lazy boy couch
@exelchannel8806 learn to read, the statement was "if I was a millionaire", and YES once you cross a certain economic threshold you can indeed indulge yourself while collecting annuities from your investments. My neighbors father won $8 Million from the CA super lotto and after getting his financial house in order he bought a commercial property that he rented out to auto repair and refurbishers while opening up his own shop where he bought and assembled model airplanes. He never advertised his shop and used word of mouth to attract willing customers
This is the correct way to use unseemly amounts of money. If you're a millionaire or more, you fuck off entirely. You don't insert yourself into the culture and try to dictate or run other people. I would buy a 40 acre plot in Idaho or Montana, or somewhere in the cascades, build a 3 bed 2 bath cabin, with an attached listening space, and just collect and spin vinyl everyday until I die.
Anyone who has worked in a retail shop where staff and customers alike are consist only of young obsessive men with a specific sphere of interest, recognise this environment and interpersonal dynamics 100%.

there was an emotional connection with my old cassettes tapes mixes I made during my early teens and teen years, now I have emotional connections with my USB drives and external hard drives.
Belle and Sebastian are great and the next song from this album is Boy w the Arab Strap, which is a total bop. He should have let it play! You can really jam out to it.
Cool film I like the nightmares on wax car boot soul poster in the back ground with the blue car its an excellent album for lazy days it's on Sheffield's warp records
If you can get your hands on the book after you watch the movie, I highly recommend it. There's some vast differences right from the start, the movie takes place in Chicago whereas the book takes place in England, London specifically. Beyond that I don't want to spoil anything else. Usually when I watch a movie adaptation of a book after I've read it or read a book after seeing the movie based on it I end up liking one or the other more, but with High Fidelity I like them both.
That’s so true!!! This has bothered me for years now, he is the douchiest snob of the snobs, and yet he’s blaring one over the most obnoxious songs ever…. it definitely fits the character, either trolling like a jagoff, or the fact that his character encapsulates the song….
I am a combination of Rob personally and Barry in terms of music, with a bit of Dick's nerdy quality thrown in. Starting at 0:53 is just like something I'd say! I have been to Vintage Vinyl!
All music junkies like myself can relate to having top 5 or 10 lists. It just comes with the territory. It's called having too much time on your hands and using it constructively.
How is it that John Cusack is still cool after all these years? His catalog of work is stunning. It was cool when we were young. And going back and checking it out again, it's still cool.
The record store reminds me so much of my high school years hanging out in a small mom and pop video rental store by my house just talking movies with whoever was there for hours.
I’ve got “The Headmaster Ritual” by The Smiths withdrawn CD single. It’s worth about £70. I got five UK original Smiths Albums for twenty pence in a Charity Shop😂
Rockaway Records; Vinyl Fetish; Aron's; Moby Disc; Poo-Bahs; Rhino Records, spending the day shopping for used and affordable vinyl. Those were the days. Grateful for those record stores still out there doing business, keeping vinyl alive.
Over the last 24+ years since watching this movie, I have walked into work on a Gloomy Monday or in my house the same way Jack Black walked into the store doing the same obnoxious sounds just to get a rise and smile from others!!!
jokes returned on you! thats a boris album you're thinking of. and the one in the movie is the nick drake lp (comparing the covers its almost impossible to tell without seeing takashi's double neck guitar, but if you look at their wrist angle its clear this is the original drake album).

Top 5 songs That DESPERATELY Need to be Retired From Public Play: 1. Walkin' On Sunshine 2. I Just Called to Say I Love You 3. Celebration 4. King of Wishful Thinking 5. Here I Go Again (yes, Whitesnake)
When people took the time to record their favorite songs on cassette tapes and played them in cassette players instead of pulling out their phones and playing Spotify.
@⠀ ⠀O.P.P Did I blame anything from my comment? I nearly stated facts. People nowadays just pull out their phones and can play whatever they want instantly whereas this is how it was back then. I never said I hated the present and today's technology. By the way, I rented this movie on DVD from Blockbuster back in the early 2000s. And yeah, I typed this on my computer, a smart device, because this is the internet. And how else would we access RUclips? Great thinking sir.
We have a vinyl store near us in a 'college town' where the "staff" offer judgemental looks and asides with every purchase. I blame this movie. I wonder if they will ever know I almost bought the place so I could close it and fill my cellar with its inventory only to ignore it?
I have 4 retro turntables...they are not sophisticated. My main turntable is at chest height. Above the turntable are two soft lights. Now and then, I take one of my 1100 jazz albums, slide the vinyl disc from its sleeve, and place it carefully on the turntable. I place the soft brush arm dust collector on the disc over the first track. I go over the disc with a Zerostat static remover and turn on the two soft lights. I position the tone arm with its SME cartridge over the aforesaid first track.Only then do I start the player. As the disc slowly revolves at 33 1/3 rpm, the lights cause a shimmer across the disc surface. With anticipation, I lower the head shell onto the 500m-long, spiral groove of the record; there's a faint pop, a momentary silence and then......the clear sound of Charlie Parker's 'Parker's Mood' fills the room. 2023 streamers won't have the faintest idea what I'm talkin' about...but many vinyl-lovers Out There will!
I'd rather have Caroline the record critic who appears towards the end of the film. Shame that Rob goes back to "back-stabbing/loving too much on Ian" Laura after meeting Caroline. hahaha
That storefront, and the store itself, would not survive today in any major US city with just that grate over the door. Those windows on the side would have been smashed and the store broken into long ago.
After a hard dose of reality for the last 35 years, I'd be perfectly happy working here now.
At 53 I feel that in my soul.
Yep…as long as I can pay my bills just listen to music all day, take literally NOTHING negative home with you, and sleep like a baby every night.

Not really ,we worked hard then too.
@@dieseltu1035 one has nothing to do with the other.
That sounds dull and boring.
People always talk about how great Jack Black is in this film, and he is, but it works because because of Todd Louiso, who is his perfect comic foyle.
I completely agree. Of course Jack Black is immediately hilarious with his superoverthetop schtick which he manages to execute flawlessly and draw huge gut laughs but Todd's performance is objectively at least as good and of course much subtler & nuanced and IMO is the best performance in the film and one of my favorite awkward & quirky characters ever ever
Todd the quiet underachiever got to kill Tim Robbins with an air conditioning unit, that's funny.

Belle & Sebastian are a great place to to start then.
😂😂😂
Just saw them live at the Olympia in Dublin, pure unadulterated joy. Smart, cool, funny and great songs 🤩
Years ago I got drunk and in a moment of weakness bought a Belle and Sebastian cd. Listened to the first three songs and threw the cd in the bin. I’ve never regretted that decision.
Im the young man that spends his time looking for Smiths singles.
I guess that makes me the one looking for Frank Zappa.
Then who was phone?
This film was my first encounter with the force that is Jack Black.
His breakout. He stole every scene.
My first encounter was a film where he was just a background character and I didn't realize it was him until years later when some scene or other popped into my head. He's not doing his usual stuff, so he's really forgettable in the role (the whole movie is forgettable), but it was still funny when it clicked that he was in it.
Airborne's the name of the movie - think I saw it on Showtime or HBO way back when.
Me too. Saw this in theatre. When he walked in singing that guitar riff and played Katrina and the waves, we all lost it in the movie hall.
You didn’t see Waterworld?
@@intsoccersuperstar1 Hell no :)
Jack Black slamming his hand so hard on the counter the phone rings was powerful.
This is one of my top 5 movies !
I used to be one of those young men that used to troll around record stores back when they were plentiful.

Really good comedic shot of John C turning to camera at end telling us he hired those 2 part time 4 years ago. It tops the scene
John Cusac plays this role absolutely perfect.
Same with Jack Black. They made a remake of this into a series and it was terrible, they tried to go the "woke" route for the series, it was so bad.

This scene and the one where Barry endorses Echo & The Bunnymen, are my favorites.
To find a deleted release in a vinyl store is a special moment lemme tell ya

Jack Black is a national treasure.

Most of this dialogue is taken directly from the book.
