yeah i mean anything beyond basic cable always costed like $60 minimum and you were at the mercy of scheduled programming like paying $40 a month to a few streaming services is an insanely good deal and your dumb if u think otherwise its like saying "man spotify sucks"

punk rebel ecks posted:Finding out that the main character in “Nobody” was a secret badass all along really puts me off from watching it. The entire thing that intrigued me was because I thought it was a story about a Joesixpack who trains his way to being a badass after said event. yeah i love Odenkirk but its just such a mediocre movie... real waste of talent and premise imo

the problem with The Woman Across The Street From The Girl in the Window (i think thats right) is that its not actually funny... like... its so weird, the tone of the actual filmmaking or whatever is totally dour and serious... it comes off as not actually being a parody, which is really weird its badd

found it entertaining enough. It may not be in say, the GDT top 3 but it's still visually compelling enough with a solid cast (and I never usually care for Cooper). Cate Blanchett and Willem Dafoe are fun and it's worth it just to see Del Toro take a shot at noir.

I been huge on Gunn since I saw Tromeo and Juliet when I was a snotty punk and loved it. Slither and Super were the two things of his that definitely kept me most "aware" of him

Just an endless cycle of violence, guilt, paranoia, and pain. yeah that's what i meant by it being rough... you're watching and you're like "hey, these murderers are pretty nice guys, and they're only murdering bad guys, right? ...right?"

Jerkface posted:Its well known (because the actress wrote a blog post detailing it) that when they were originally shopping the show the low budget pilot episodes + the FX pilot were shot with a different actress who Rob was dating at the time. After they filmed the pilot she broke up with him and they dumped her off the show and replaced her. It feels kind of scummy because IIRC rob made some ultimatum like you gotta keep dating me to stay on the show or something or other and she had a hand in creating the show herself. *extremely Dee voice* god drat it! seriously tho i never knew that... thats lovely

punk rebel ecks posted:This is all very weird to me. why? we've seen this in pretty much every form of media Guns n Roses and other bands tried releasing more than one album at the same time, and it always failed because it meant that all the songs got talked about at once and then forgotten, whereas bands that release an album every year were constantly on people's minds there's examples in film and books too releasing everything at once is best for consumers, but a scheduled release is so much better for marketing and buzz in general

Maxwell Lord posted:My main thought about Peacemaker is we seem to be due for a cultural re-evaluation of hair metal and its place in music history. Much like the slow rehabilitation of disco. well, i think this already happened. specifically in the 00s. you had bands like The Darkness, who were jokingly saying "actually hair metal was good", and also bands like The loving Champs who were sincerely playing metal in an indie rock context, with song names like "Thor is loving Godlike". around the same time i recall the college station in Knoxville had a hair metal show that a buddy of mine did, and it was by a large margin the most popular thing on the station. i believe it was just called "the cock rock hour" and it was almost all hair metal. i think something that everyone figured out back then is that, there really just aren't that many hair metal bands who were "genuinely good".

Maxwell Lord posted:It’s not even a sub genre I’m especially into but I just always found it weird that the lingering backlash meant rock and metal bands got hung up on being taken seriously and being authentic. I’m not saying this directly correlates with rock losing cultural mindshare to pop and r&b but it’s worth looking into. that's true and i think something interesting is that it's basically a repeat of what happened with rock initially, where you had the Beatles and most other artists not actually writing their own songs and rock was just pop with louder guitars, so you had bands like led zep and pink floyd who were very hung up on people taking them seriously then too
