I learned what chord progressions and 12 bars blues are because it's nearly all of the music in Doom and Doom II.

I don't really mind when all of a band's songs sound the same when I like the song. Anyway: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpEVsDN84Hc Hyperlynx has a new favorite as of 00:34 on Jul 19, 2020 |

My kids watched the original "101 Dalmatians" on Disney Plus to tonight. It's not the first time, plus I watched it a lot as a kid on VHS (dating myself there). I'm embarrassed to admit that JUST TONIGHT I realized that "Cruella DeVil" was a play on "Cruel Devil." I will be 39 in 9 days.

In the book there’s actually a Mr DeVil, Cruella’s husband, but they’re still able to get away with the whole nominative determinism angle by explaining that her husband is so harried by his dominant spouse that he took her last name upon marriage. Feminist icon!

I've never seen it, but I didn't learn until maybe early 2000s that it's not some fantastical tale about a dog who has 101 puppies and that's why Cruella wants them, as if 101 from one litter would make a better coat The 'main' dog couple only had 15 puppies (granted, still like 3 times bigger than a regular dog litter) and Cruella already had 84 other dalmatian puppies ready to go. Edit: And according to the wiki plot summary, even though she looks like she's loving 80, Cruella is actually the same age, or close to it since they were classmates, as the love interest, Anita, who seems late 20s/early 30s.

And I am astounded that Disney didn't draw on this at all for the awful sequel to the live action remake (which was also bad because the dogs didn't talk).

Aren't almost all Disney movies based on books. (Maybe not the 3D ones, I wouldn't really know?) e: Turns out The Aristocats which I was sure was based on a book, wasn't. I wonder what book I was thinking of

My mom's dalmatian had 25 between 2 litters.

Playing through Ghost of Tsushima today, I learned from the resource collection menu that a "bowyer" is an actual thing: someone who crafts shooting bows.  Somehow I never consciously ran across this word outside of the badguy in Mario RPG, I've spent a majority of my life vaguely thinking his name was some sort of inexplicably poorly-translated pun on Bowser

3D Megadoodoo posted:Aren't almost all Disney movies based on books. (Maybe not the 3D ones, I wouldn't really know?) The Aristocats is based on a previous story, but a previous story written by Disney employees to turn into animation by Disney. It's just that it was developed for something else and made into a proper full Disney release instead. It's the only original Disney full movie until the 90s where you get a run of stuff based on real people but not any specific books about them. Dinosaur is the first completely made up by Disney story I think?

Actually I'm pretty sure The Aristocats is based off of a spoken word original draft, but Disney took quite a few editorial liberties to make the "G" rating.

Re 12 bar blues, coincidentally a friend just posted this on FB: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8NheCfJhzc It's just such a simple, fundamental chord progression that everyone knows it, so it's dead easy for the band to just join in with Satch unannounced.

I've never gotten into the whole G3 thing with Satch or Vai or any of them, and while I get that Satch is a really talented guitarist I'm always left wondering: Why does he dress like such an idiot all the time?

That said, t-shirt and jeans is hardly weird, and sunglasses inside really isn't that weird for a rock star. Vai, though, sure. He's a flamboyant guy.
