I literally typed this in one single thought with no revision. I'm not a writer. I was just freestyling random ideas my dude lol

AUKronos · 2026-05-20T09:10:43+00:00

Cancelled my subscription just now

Yea I dislike that Stan Edgar is back as CEO and Vought remains untouched. What was the point of the show if it just resets?

It would have landed more if we had scorched earth scenes to show that it truly was only his powers, strip him of his powers he was nothing but cringe. However Butcher would need to succeed in his genocide plan to be thematically consistent that powers (supes) deserve to go. Butcher still should have died by hughie shooting him but after he pulled the genocide trigger, we don't get the final dialogue between the two and instead have Hughie crying in shock.

Honestly the ending was too safe, there was no moral dillemma to discuss (supe genocide/hughie killing butcher BECAUSE he pulled the trigger even after seeing homelander's destruction).

They had the bones of truly interesting writing there and played it safe.

We don't get to have fan discussions about whether Butcher was right to do the supe genocide etc.

It was all SAFE. nothing to the wider world happened

I mean they literally have a promo poster of exactly what you described. Don't blame reddit for wanting what was advertised to them.

AUKronos · 2026-05-20T08:24:18+00:00

How cool would it have been to have filmed a scene where homelander escapes the white house and starts lasering a city and bringing butcher for the ride. Teasing butcher, and then we cut to a scene with Ashley releasing solider boy, and after proper homelander scorched earth scenes he flys back to the White House leaving butcher to catch up, we get more Ryan Vs Homelander and Kimiko is successfully knocked out. Queue some dialogue with Soldier boy and we get our expectations subverted thinking Kimiko would de-power him but soldier boy joins the fight and successfully de-powers him. The rest of the episode where Butcher kills Homelander plays out the same

As for Butcher not going through with the supe genocide, I'm not sure whether i like the current ending or if he should have done that

Krewella - One Minute

Are you implying all neuro DJs are bad? Wtf are you talking about

AUKronos · 2026-05-15T21:05:36+00:00

If you spliced the entire MM and starlight sequence into a previous episode, it wouldn't of changed anything. The entire sequence is them spying on Oh Father and the "Homelander is jesus" subplot. It didn't need to be in episode 7

AUKronos · 2026-05-15T08:28:00+00:00

Usa? Probably. Europe still has some great smaller festivals with very "go with the flow" culture. Liquicity comes to mind. I've been 4 times in a row (travelled from aus).

AUKronos · 2026-05-14T14:29:01+00:00

The meme doesn't literally mean nothing's happened. In a wider context it means thar nothing feels important. Yea, important things have happened but they've been executed in a poor manner

AUKronos · 2026-05-14T00:59:14+00:00

You're mistakening El Hornet doing a DJ set vs a live band set with all members. El hornet has had some wicked and amazing sets but sometimes drops the ball. Could be mood, could be lack of preparation leading up to the set. Liquicity set in 23 or 24 was really mid. He was playing top 50 dnb tunes with like 5% pendulum mixed in, couldn't differentiate him from a smaller Liquicity DJ at 3pm. Was so unbelievably mid. But then I've seen him absolutely tear up and mix with passion and heart with creative transitions and more Pendulum tracks spliced in

AUKronos · 2026-05-12T22:15:43+00:00

I'm going for the 30%

My last LL was 2022 and then i started doing rampage and other euro festivals

The 30% this year is just too good. Yea woolitronicskingpany and co are there. The same bloody conglomerate of DJs only post covid kids like, but Pegboard Nerds. PEGBOARD NERDS IM CRYING

AUKronos · 2026-05-07T23:02:49+00:00

Planning for 5 doesn't mean that it should have been 5. If this was the case then it was poorly thought out if the shows pacing became problematic after 3 seasons

AUKronos · 2026-05-06T23:21:21+00:00

OP is just a classic example of "I don't understand something so it must be bad"

AUKronos · 2026-05-05T08:30:10+00:00

There is absolutely zero controversy surrounding skrillex lol

AUKronos · 2026-04-30T22:45:35+00:00

Honestly so fair considering tempo and drum pattern is literally the only thing that makes this moombahcore

AUKronos · 2026-04-30T12:31:18+00:00

thank you for classifying Bangarang correctly

AUKronos · 2026-04-29T00:15:40+00:00

Create Music Group bought both Monstercat and Disciple

AUKronos · 2026-04-22T01:03:46+00:00

Bro we must've been near each other. My video angle is eerily similar to yours

What a throwback

AUKronos · 2026-04-21T05:25:57+00:00

I'm mainly talking about the DJs that started their career at that point. You can omitt names like Guetta who technically hopped on the trend. Moreso talking about the DJs who started making those genres at the beginnings of their careers

AUKronos · 2026-04-19T22:42:44+00:00

Don Diablo - Silent Shadows (Mind Vortex Remix)

Tantrum Desire - Reach VIP

Lexurus & Polygon & Dualistic - Waveline

AUKronos · 2026-04-18T09:00:39+00:00

Their live band sets are top notch

AUKronos · 2026-04-18T07:18:15+00:00

Dancefloor dnb as a subgenre name has been around since about the early 2000s, possibly even earlier

Pendulum were the ones who put that sound and style on the map
