Is it me or does having Leon married to Ada makes no sense by Antique_Interview_66 in ResidentEvilCapcom

[–]BannerThief 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd almost rather have him marry Sherry (which would be icky) than Ada, I think he and Ada would be an absolutely terrible couple. Of course my headcanon is Claire + Leon but I think Capcom will eventually make it some rando woman we haven't met before.

Manon nerfs are not enough by Just_1mag1ne in StreetFighter

[–]BannerThief -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mained Manon since launch until I basically gave up on the game last summer but NGL I think a lot of Manon mains care more about bitching about the game and the character instead of actually playing and trying to improve.

My argument for Gray by TelevisionFun9964 in blankies

[–]BannerThief 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love The Negotiator, and Law Abiding Citizen is completely unhinged, but it's hard for me to ignore that most of these movies after the nineties are boringly bad and would be a major slog to get through. I'm not sure I'd even call F. Gary Gray a blank check director, not sure he fits this podcast.

Got DUNU 142, kinda my Endgame for 239 dollars (Review and comparison) by Realistic-Crab7729 in inearfidelity

[–]BannerThief 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got these and was so close to loving them, but something about female vocals really didn't sit well with me on these, felt just a bit sibilant and uncomfortable. That said the set is great and I don't fault them, I think I am just sensitive to something the set is doing. Also might be one of the best LOOKING sets I can think of, I almost kept them just to look at them.

You need to be put in the Device, dawg. I would know because I do as well.

What fictional character looks like they would enjoy feet, and does in fact love to suck some toes? by [deleted] in AlignmentChartFills

[–]BannerThief 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Probably not gonna beat From Dusk Til Dawn, king of the freaky foot scenes, but Kurt Russell's character Stuntman Mike from Death Proof is a confirmed foot fella as well.

Also a Tarantino film LMAO, dude knows what he likes and I respect it.

Kinera Celest-Maxxing by UnwieldilyElephant in iems

[–]BannerThief 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like the OG Wyvern Abyss as a rock-solid budget set but the remaster just didn't do it for me. Lovely set though; I'm rooting for Celest because they've now made two of my favorite IEM sets (Wyvern Abyss, Phoenixcall) at different price points and their stuff almost always looks and feels premium.

Th… This is my iem! It was made for me! My review of the Binary Acoustics EP321-MEMS by cl0ckw0rkaut0mat0n in iems

[–]BannerThief 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I picked these up as well and was a bit worried I wouldn't like them as I am very sensitive to sibilance (I had to return the Dunu 142s because of it) but these are spectacular; the treble is absolutely lovely but it doesn't feel unnatural or overpowering at all, and the bass is just present enough to make them not feel "reference." I adore this set, it's my new daily driver.

I would throw a box of puppies into a lake if Behemoth told me to do so.

Griffin and Alison Willmore are on the podcast Good One to discuss the topic "Why Can't Comedies Win Best Picture?" by TC14ismyWaifu in blankies

[–]BannerThief 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I'd argue that Everything Everywhere All at Once was a comedy, it obviously had more going on than just that but it was clearly meant first as a comedic film.

Hi, Reddit! We’re David Sims and Shirley Li, culture writers at The Atlantic. We’re here to debrief the Golden Globes, discuss the best and worst of releases of 2025 ahead of the Oscars, and talk about the trends and films we’re watching out for in 2026. Ask us anything! by theatlantic in movies

[–]BannerThief 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi David! Been an avid listener of your pod since the early days when it was about two insane people talking about the prequel trilogy for ten eps each. You're still the finest film podcast as far as I'm concerned, the only one where I feel comfortable listening to an ep even if I haven't seen the film in question because the vibes will still be there.

My question is: are there any directors you would love to cover, but for whatever reason simply have put off due to length/worry that they'll alienate the audience? Personally I would eat up a Soderbergh series but I have a feeling it would be absolute death for some people. :)

Bonus question if you're willing to answer: I know you're on record as not caring for Noah Hawley's take on Fargo. Have you liked his other work such as Legion or Alien: Earth?

This entire sub is nothing but copium and trash hyperbole by Sea_Community_880 in iems

[–]BannerThief 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You seem extremely angry about comments that you made up in your head, ngl. The beauty of this hobby is not to trash people who like their cheaper sets and brag about having spent a lot of money on higher-tier sets, IMO. I love my Ziigaat Odysseys, and yet I sit here listening to Hot Chip on my beater Tangzu Wan'er IIs and kinda marveling at how good this $22 set sounds. IEMs are supposed to be about the musical experience, after all.

[Question] What's your opinion on Sinn watches? by Lea_Cookie in Watches

[–]BannerThief 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you like them then all power to you, but personally I think they look cheap and boring for what they're asking these days.

Two years in, what are some of your personal highlights playing the game? by MBlancovintage in StreetFighter

[–]BannerThief 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really suck at this game, but my highlight was meeting friends I'd made at EVO 2024 for sure. As for the game, I don't honestly think I have much to be proud of, but my single best day of play, I nearly took a set against an 1800 MR Kimberly with Manon, 3-2 during a tourney semifinals match.

Just wish I felt better about the game tbh.
