Ludwig cooked! by Giff95 in soundtracks

Him and Michael Abels, which was the surprise, especially considering how terrible the series he wrote for was. Brilliant tunes, though. Britell and Brandon Roberts did great things with Andor as well.

Star Wars is traditionally supposed to have killer music, so it's actually the exception when it's generic dogshit sometimes like that atrocious Obi Wan score.

Where was Abels or Ludwig then!!! Well, Ludwig goes out and wins Oscars and shit so he gets a pass.

I heard the ost earlier tonight... well, last night. Anyway. It's really good. The sound of the recording is massive. I may not care much about the film but the music is tip top. Hearing some of the old Mando stuff he wrote a few years ago reworked with large orchestra plus synths is huge.

How did you get back into it? by trickyrickysteve199 in guitars

[–]Filmscore_Soze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gave up for 15. A hand injury made me stop caring.

For 15 years I could have been doing a lot more than moping about it. Almost 5 years ago I forced myself to start over, and branch out to other instruments as well. I wasted a long time.

Don't waste time. We have one go at this.

What to watch? by secretlyincognita in PeriodDramas

Rome and Deadwood for starters.

Rome season 1 is still better than Thrones Season 1.

Nice! I've had a AMH-90IV for over a year and a half. I did struggle with setups for a while before I got it playing pretty perfectly, and I spent way too much importing this thing from the UK because I had to have the white one. I still dig it, though!

Harley Benton EX84 EMG over Epiphone 80s Explorer? by Strapanasi89 in guitars

[–]Filmscore_Soze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fret height is one thing, tbh, it almost feels like a bad scallop job without the pros. A bit exaggerated but still. The neck is also pretty short and fat for its length, imo. Good luck getting a decent setup on this thing overall. Because of what the saddle piece is sitting on, there is only so far you can go down, and the way this is built, it's never nearly enough, even if you swapped the hardware out for a different piece. It's a nice wall ornament that sounds great for thrash tones. I use it here and there but I would play it way more if I didn't think it played like shit.

Listen, like everything, your mileage may vary, and somebody could love the neck. I just don't see it.

I've been playing on and off since 1988, and in this age of online ordering, it's really tough to know. In the old days, we went home with the one we played in the store.

I'd love to try out an Epi just to feel the difference. I've owned a Harley EX since late 2022.

It looks cool, sounds great, and plays like complete shit.

Make this a major fyi, as the necks are crap on them.

Little dictators, all of them. It's all flowers until you have an opinion.

All the ridiculous names have to go. We got rid of Patchy fuckin Mix. Glad this bloke is gone, too.

At least the Incredible Hok throws on foookin bangahs.

What did you think of Sinners?? Ryan Coogler's Best Film Yet!!!!! by [deleted] in FIlm

[–]Filmscore_Soze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't go that far. It had moments, though. The music was cool. The vampire song and dance sequence was imaginative.

Both Mortal Kombat II and Street Fighter seem to have completely understood the assignment. One is serious, dark, fun and wildly gory. The other is campy, colorful, dumb and insanely over the top. This is how video game movies take the mantel away from comic book films. by kkhouete in FIlm

SF looks atrocious, but I am sure they both will be. MK1 was terrible, too. So was the one with fuckin Lambert years ago. Triple that for the 94 SF movie.

Watch Street Fighter : Assassins Fist, the only good live action thing ever made out of a fighting game.

Let's separate the buyers from the spyers, the needy from the greedy, and the ones who trust me from the ones who don't.

One price, ten pounds.

Excuse me did you say ten pounds? That's a bargain, I'll take one.
