James Douglas "Jim" Morrison (December 8, 1943 – July 3, 1971) was an American singer, songwriter and poet best remembered as the lead singer of The Doors.
Because of his songwriting, wild personality and performances, he is regarded by critics and fans as one of the most iconic and influential frontmen in rock music history, and because of the dramatic circumstances surrounding his life and death. In the latter part of the 20th century he was one of the popular culture's most rebellious and oft-displayed icons, representing generational gap and youth counterculture. He was also well known for improvising spoken word poetry passages while the band played live. Morrison was ranked number 47 on Rolling Stone's list of the "100 Greatest Singers of All Time", and number 22 on Classic Rock Magazine's "50 Greatest Singers In Rock".Ray Manzarek said that Morrison "embodied hippie counterculture rebellion..." Morrison was sometimes referred to by other monikers, such as "Lizard King" and "King of Orgasmic Rock".

Plot: Jesus returns to Earth in present-day NYC, sent by his Father to usher in 2000 years of Godly peace. Unfortunately, modern young people respond poorly to this bearded weirdo. Taking the advice of a market research guru, Jesus has a Spandex costume made and declares himself "Ultrachrist", an urban sin-fighter. Unfortunately, his Father doesn't approve of these unorthodox techniques, while the Antichrist (the NYC Parks Commissioner) ressurects an army of famous sinners to make sure Ultrachrist's mission fails.

Plot: For Gareth, it rains every day. He starts to want things that men aren't supposed to want. He wants to have someone to hug and to hold. He wants to meet a nice woman. For his flat mate this is too much to stomach. Calvin believes that agents are following him from some shadowy government agency. While Leon, well Leon is just plain weird. Gareth has never been the most forward man in the world, talking to women has never been easy at the best of times. So when Calvin explains the concept of 'alternate universes' to Gareth he starts him thinking. What if out of all the different Gareths, in all the different universes, he is the one who is permanently unlucky in love? What if he is the one who is destined to go without? While Gareth may not fully understand the whole alternate universes concept there is one thing he does understand. Unless he takes action soon. He may be left in a universe all by himself.

Plot: Oliver Stone's homage to 1960s rock group The Doors also doubles as a biography of the group's late singer, the "Electric Poet" Jim Morrison. The movie follows Morrison from his days as a film student in Los Angeles to his death in Paris in 1971, at the age of 27. The movie features a tour-de-force performance by Val Kilmer, who not only looks like Jim Morrison's long-lost twin brother, but also sounds so much like him that he did much of his own singing. It has been written that even the surviving Doors had trouble distinguishing Kilmer's vocals from Morrison's originals.

Abbey Road and Blueprint playing on vinyl
With the hippy flower princess, born in Ohio
Chats with label presidents about my goals

But Kanye gave me college
And they feel me down in Brooklyn
