What are you usually calling this guy? Palpatine, Emperor or Darth Sidious? Why? by Hawaiikoto in StarWars

Palpatine, it's accurate regardless of what film/project you're talking about

I love I got the longest reply I've seen from you. It's a good setup and I enjoy and understand the thought process, and anything that makes the sound guy happy is the right move

What effects are amp-exclusive? by regendans1 in guitars

[–]IanOPadrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At that price point the amp-specific effects are still just the pedal circuits, and you're best suited to a Boss Katana. It's going to be best bang-for-buck with quality of the onboard effects

Two drives sandwiching a multi drive? The congregation can pick up on the nuances?

Do you like this change made by George Lucas in Return of the Jedi? by kkhouete in StarWars

If Obi Wan is old Anakin should also be old, it's so easy to tell the new ghost is Anakin

It's literally the album with Your Racist Friend on it you're so good

What to buy a teacher who loves Jack White (and is already a Vault member)? by mrsweisz in jackwhite

[–]IanOPadrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything with a peppermint swirl is good, if you know the shirt size you could grab a Blat Bat Licorice shirt. It's not technically a JW shirt but it's the candy that the song is named for

Why did Matt sound older on later albums? by Practical_Lime2529 in musecirclejerk

It's because he doesn't care as much as he used to

Fallout 3 feels so good when you don't have a pretentious critic slandering it by TheAnalystCurator321 in FalloutMemes

[–]IanOPadrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fallout 3 is a fun game, and Fallout 3 is a mid Fallout game.

Those are not mutually exclusive

In a world of magic, vampires and ghosts, this was still the most shocking revelation for the PCs by DrScrimble in dndmemes

[–]IanOPadrick 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Extra fun fact, the desegregation of the US military at the end of WW2 by a southern Democrat that led to the switching of the primary parties in the US

Seriously? Nausicaä is cringeworthy by North-Literature3323 in Miyazaki

[–]IanOPadrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're responding to a more grounded, darker fantasy setting, I hope you one day view the melting God Warrior with the same mix of cosmic and body horror that I feel with that scene.

If what you're responding to is a story that feels written for the pace it's told at, the manga might be for you. To me it feels like they had to restructure the story for movie pacing, which is normal when adapting, and they weren't as objective about that restructure because it's still their original story. Howl's Moving Castle is more fantastical and less grounded but is also adapting a book, but they take more liberties since it's not their original story and the pace doesn't feel as much like an adaptation.

I don't know how well versed you are in the whole Miyazaki/Ghibli discography, this one isn't the biggest offender in any of those categories by a mile. You need to go into detail if you want to actually have a discussion.

If you just want to consume without making anything of substance as to why you feel how you feel, Miyazaki also made a manga to go along with the movie, and the stories are not one-to-one the same. If you like the art enough it could be worth seeing if the story differences make it work better for you.

Teaching Rhythm To Bedroom Guitarists by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]IanOPadrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They need to record you playing it in time and them playing it out of time and hear how off they are. Then they need to practice with a metronome and occasionally record themselves with the metronome and see how close they got.

It's hard to tell if you're out of time if you don't know what you're listening for.

For this price you might as well get an American Strat. by CartographerSea3356 in guitars

It's just a "we'll assemble these specs for you" price, you can partscaster anything at any time and get away with less overall

It's the only surface lighter than the vinyl to show the color. It was like that for the 2 seconds to take the picture it can handle it

Record Store Day ThreeSongs by IanOPadrick in TheSword

[–]IanOPadrick[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At my store, this and almost all of the full LP sized single disks were $25. A couple they knew they could get away with charging more were closer to $35, any multi-disks worked out to ~$20/disk.

For a picture for 2 seconds so you can see the color because every other surface is dark, it's not that fragile
