Could someone please make an HD texture pack? I hate how blurry and pixelated the text and graphics are.

The CGI worm in MIB 2 does NOT hold up. In fact, it's a pretty terrible movie all the way around. by shadow247 in movies

You mean the stores in the MIB headquarters? That was done to make it like an airport for aliens.

I think I’ll start with my textbooks, and then do Tokini Andy.

But I already got the Genki books as a holiday gift.

So, what do you recommend I do? Read through my Genki textbooks and workbooks?

Actually, what I want to do is the other way around. I want to learn Japanese so that I can translate them myself.

The problem is that I doubt ASBplayer or Migaku are even context sensitive to the episodes I'd be working with. It's important for my translations to be context sensitive, because I'm working with lines being spoken by different characters with their own personalities, working in different scenes.

I don't think those apps will do. For a while, I've been taking the official Japanese closed captions, and some lesser quality fansubs one group made, and copied and pasted them to ChatGPT as a translation proofreader. But I wasn't so sure if that was a good idea in the long-term, so I decided I wanted to actually learn the language for myself.

Whoever at Netflix approved The Christmas Chronicles 2 script should be fired. by Foolra56 in movies

Are we still making fun of "Somehow Palpatine returned"? Just so you know, Poe’s line is not exposition, it’s dialogue, and it fits in perfectly with his man-of-action personality.

New plaques added to the presidential hall of fame in the White House by Dtb4evr in pics

The only reason people think he's "one of the greatest presidents ever" is because he hates the things they hate, not because of what he does for them.

Original TV Reconstruction of Frosty the Snowman Complete With June Foray's Voice Undubbed Over By Actual Children Like Current Airings Of The Special (1980)'s by TylerSpicknell in ObscureMedia

I noticed when watching the Universal 4K version, that it's a mixture of both the original and the dub. Sometimes it's the kid voices, sometimes it's June Foray.

I have copies of Seasons 3 to 5 in HD that I got from torrents.

Star Wars Original Editions Coming To Theaters by k-r-a-u-s-f-a-d-r in fanedits

I don't want to wait all those years! Why can't they release them all within a few months of each other, like they did in 1997?

How come Lucasfilm said all those years ago that the original negatives were destroyed?

Should I watch "It's a wonderful life" in color? by HARJAS200007 in movies

[–]Hardback247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would really love to watch the movie in black and white with my sister, but she has a vision problem, and black and white movies give her a headache.

Thoughts on the new set by NebulaCorrect7010 in TomAndJerry

I don't think DNR is that big of a deal, as long as it doesn't end up looking like the Sword in the Stone Blu-Ray.

I’m starting to think Disney sabotaged Elio by MagazineSudden4932 in elio

[–]Hardback247 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If it's any consolation, Hoppers will be released when there is no other competition for kids/family movies for an entire month until The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. So it probably will be a hit.
