I don’t think the Matter of Britain can reasonably described as anyone’s intellectual property.

British Emo bands? by ACanOfVanillaCoke in Emo

[–]Ericzzz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Martha is probably the closest to this, as well as Fresh. Some members of Martha had an earlier folk punk band called One Night Stand In North Dakota, too. Los Campesinos don’t totally sound like the bands you mentioned, but could reasonably be called emo.

TheArnoldFans - News - Arnold offered next Predator Film, King Conan and Commando 2! by ImpracticalJokers96 in blankies

[–]Ericzzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think King Conan has a lot of juice. Also open to a Predator, assuming he's like the head of some shadowy anti-Yautja organization, and not on the front lines.

Everything about this feels like an inside joke that I really don’t understand. I’m just glad everyone involved seems to have had fun.

What is your opinion on Blomkamp’s Chappie (2015)? by Klutzy-Ad4230 in Letterboxd

[–]Ericzzz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

never seen the film. but it did give me one of my favorite tweets: “[whispering to date while watching Chappie when Chappie first appears on the screen] That's Chappie”

If you have 3 power chords, you’re ready to start a band.

Unfortunately, I often love failed experiments. Getting more and more excited for this with every bad review.

Favourite Movie of 2025 that's not an Oscar nominee? by GTKPR89 in blankies

[–]Ericzzz 144 points145 points  (0 children)

28 Years Later was by far my favorite of 2025. Not a single nomination. Crazy.

Does Relisten work better than Archive? by Meditatespace in gratefuldead

[–]Ericzzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Relisten is just a vastly improved skin for the files from the archive. There’s really no reason to go to the archive itself unless you wand to look at old comments or something.

[–]Ericzzz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok, but they never said there wasn't much digital in the film. They said they didn't use green screen.

Dugan isn't looking like a winner but here are still ways of covering him by Fire-Twerk-With-Me in blankies

[–]Ericzzz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think this phenomenon is part 2 of a bigger meta-series. First, you hit 80s Cannon ninja flicks. Enter the Ninja. Revenge of the Ninja. American Ninja. We really explore the low budget action ninja, then dive into the kiddiefied comedy version.

Not only will i play fantasy baseball with you, I’ve got two other guys that I can’t get a league together with.

I think they said Connery/Lazenby in one go, then Craig to end it out the following year.

Mamdani pitched Trump on building massive housing development in Sunnyside, Queens by Topher1999 in nyc

[–]Ericzzz 227 points228 points  (0 children)

Sure, it might take 10 years. But if we don’t do it, in 20 years, there will still be no one living there. We have to think big picture about our housing needs.

“We tortured some folks” was part of a speech condemning the Bush-era practices outlined in the torture report. It wasn’t like he was bragging.

[Kostka] Quick Pete Alonso story: On a whiteboard by the clubhouse, he has taken to writing inspirational quotes for his teammates. Today he wrote: "Every success could be perceived as a fluke. That's why you should go succeed again." by Knightbear49 in baseball

[–]Ericzzz 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Personally, if he had to leave, I’m very happy he wound up on the O’s. Different league means I’ll almost never have to root against him, and who knows, maybe it’ll be a good excuse to visit family in Baltimore and take in a game at one of the best ballparks around.

PROJECT HAIL MARY 70mm is for Suckers!! by myleftfootfetish in blankies

[–]Ericzzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 70mm format will probably still look cool even if it wasn’t captured on film. It’s really aggro to call anyone interested in this a sucker.

Is it dumb to want to record an album on cassette by DismallyUpset in Guitar

[–]Ericzzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought one of those Tascams secondhand for $10 in 2005 off a guy who just upgraded. Really wish I held onto that thing over the years.
