I'm Not There is better than both of them.

Eh, I hope your wrong; I decided to watch No Direction Home last night.

I'm Not There is fundamentally different, though.

Don't Look Back is probably better, but if you're a Dylan fan you should see both (and I'm Not There). You won't be disappointed.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes kicks the crap out of all three.

I agree.

So I wasn't crazy about Don't Look Now but I loved No Direction Home. Though I have to say I thought it ended too soon and kind of abruptly. If would've been awesome if it focused on Dylan's career/life from the late 60s to present day (2005 at the time it was made). Sure it's already 3 and a half hours long and if it chronicled Dylan for another 35+ years it would be like 7-8 hours long but Ken Burns makes longer documentaries longer than that and most of his subjects aren't as interesting as Bob Dylan.

Sike. Ken Burns documentaries are well executed programs concerning fascinating subjects.

I read about a Ken Burns documentary on Jazz that's meant to be awesome.

I thought it was a great documentary.

My goal in life is to be so culturally significant that 10 years after I die Ken Burns will make a documentary about me that makes all of my flaws charming and romantic as hell.

Axl Rose >>> Kurt Cobain as a musician on so many levels it's not even funny.

Pleeeeeease.
Axl was a very talented guy, but Cobain was a visionary.

Exactly, he was. I just think Axl is the superior musician.
