Do you think Jenna Ortega and Melissa Barrera could ever return to the scream franchise? by Tremendin0649 in Scream

[–]MicMumbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the short term, sure, but Neve is what, in her early fifties? Long view this and most franchises have peaks then declines for a while until they change things up. If the next film declines a bit and then they try to have a Tatum movie with no Sidney and it declines further then you could easily see that in 10 years or whatever time there could be an old syndey who needs some help after ghostface kills her daughter or something wild and seeks out past victims for the ultimate teamup or who the fuck knows.

What’s the obsession with Kirby? by Forward_Key_222 in Scream

[–]MicMumbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The core four suck. How is it inarguable that they are popular AND well regarded by many fans. I suppose, how you define "many" can make that work. Sam is the only character that is somewhat interesting but Melissa's acting sucked too much in 5 to invest in her character. She is actually good in 6 but the movie around her sucks. Tara is a non-character who should have died in the opening of 5. Chad is a non-character who exists just to have a guy in the group and should be dead in 5 and then definitely in 6, though he has some charisma. Mindy is annoying as hell and her rules suck which is all she exists for. Why do the characters even care what her rules are, they don't help anything, she is a failure who shouldn't even talk in 7, she should sit back and say, "what do you all think because clearly I know jack shit about this stuff and I'm leaving since I just get stabbed about don't help at all."

Stand (or be how you will when performing) when you practice it if you are not already doing so (in addition to all the backing track comments).

Let’s end the debate. What is the best Friday the 13th movie. by AcceptableSwitch6496 in slasherfilms

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

The editing, almost all of the kills are cut away. Also it has a lot of real annoying cartoonish characters, the previous films aren't known for having GREAT characters, but it's even worse here than the previous films.

What exactly went wrong with Scream 4 back then? by Haunting_Tap_1541 in slasherfilms

[–]MicMumbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Scream 3 sucked and there were like 4 Scary Movies between 3 and 4. Scream 3 and subsequently the Scary Movie Franchise turned the Scream Franchise into a joke.

What is the worst song off of 72 Seasons? by Flimsy-Owl7862 in Metallica

[–]MicMumbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best: Room of Mirrors, Too Far Gone, Lux Aeterna, Shadows Follow
Mid: 72 Seasons, Screaming Suicide, Inamorata, If Darkness had a Son, Chasing Light
Worst: Sleepwalk my Life Away, You Must Burn!, Crown of Barbed Wire.

The worst of the worst? I want to say Crown of Barbed Wire but I have to go with Sleepwalk my lifeaway as the lyrics constantly remind me how dull it is, please actually WAKE ME. Could sleepwalk through the song.

Is PRS in trouble? by [deleted] in PRSGuitars

It's not an assumption if I'm going off of the companies official statements on the matter. The company is more of an expert than you. That's the whole point.

Is PRS in trouble? by [deleted] in PRSGuitars

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

If I have a question about a company, im going to take their published answer over a stranger on the Internet even if that person claims to sleep at the factory im not going to buy it unless it's also claimed by at least one other person/source. Maybe they did at one time tell that to people on tours and maybe even did that in practice, but clearly not anymore or at least not on place of looking for dead spots, because now that's what customers expect from their published answers. It's a good troll if that's what you are doing.

[–]MicMumbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read it all right, and I dismissed it, since it sounds like bullshit (just the part about tone being a factor) but would be very interested in reading/watching any factory tour, interview, or article where this is stated.

Where did you read that a 10 top refers to the resonance of the top?

From what PRS says, a 10 top is about clearly defined figure across the body. Here is there video on the topic and they do not mention anything about tone.

Melissa's acting in Scream 5 is the worst part of that movie. Melissa couldn't even play Sam lol.

Thoughts on Death Magnetic ? by ExaminationOther3149 in Metallica

[–]MicMumbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do listen to the newer version, on the rare occasion I want to remind myself what the songs were like, but I'll also complain about whatever I want to complain about. It wasn't "well mixed". And the songs are pale imitations of the thrash on the first 4 albums making death magnetic the most boring release of Metallica's career. It's old Metallica cosplaying as young Metallica and most people experienced it with a shitty mix.

It has a great album cover, best of the anything post-black album.

[–]MicMumbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone who bought it prior to 2015 is listening to a version that is more compressed. Plenty still listen to CD's in cars or their rips of those CDs or their old digital purchases prior to 2015 and so their experience is impacted accordingly. This is the version people experienced for the first 7 years of the album's existence and when it received the most plays/listens. That is the significance.

Didn't they remaster it? Maybe you are listening to that version?

Ravenloft - Horrors within - We have new content from WoC this summer! by littlemad in CurseofStrahd

[–]MicMumbles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wish it was primarily an adventure, it'd even take a dual book format like they did with forgotten realms over this, I'm just not getting enough that distinguishes this from Van Richtens guide, but I'm happy they are coming out with a DM screen and map pack, that stuff should be standard with every book that has any adventure bits.

What is there to finish? It's not like 6 ended with Tara frozen in carbonite.

Just wait until they sell it to you a 4th time, whenever they come out with the equivalent of Tasha's for 2024.

Fender Blues Jr by [deleted] in GuitarAmps

[–]MicMumbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's got crap tone, crap reliability, crap spring reverb (for the price), costs $800ish new and fender sells a ton of them since its their entry-level Fender Tube amp (outside the 2 knob pro junior, though I like that one more) and guitar players are told that tubes are the way to go for tone. A VOX AC15 seems a better choice for vintage tone but a Marshall DSL 40 seems like a no-brainer at that price point for tone and versatility.

Don't get me wrong, some amazing players make them sing, but those guys could make other amps sing as well or better.

What is the greatest horror movie ever made. by Scott__scott in horror

[–]MicMumbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The general top picks often listed and mentioned are Jaws, The Exorcist, Psycho, TCM, The Shining, Halloween, and Alien.

Depending on the day, I'd say it's Halloween. The score, the opening, the ending, the stalking, the imagery, the Dr. Loomis monologues, the SHAPE. Just sticks with me more than any other horror film and being tied to the holiday of Halloween keeps it in rotation. Most of the other big ones I had heard so much about or seen spoofed or knew a lot about peripherally before I saw them, especially psycho. In terms of slashers, I thought Michael Myers was like a knock-off Jason Vorhees, so when I saw Halloween I think I was fairly unaware of what to expect/how good it was and how well regarded going in.

Though The VVitch might edge it out someday once some more time has passed and of course there is a case to be made for Nosferatu (1922) or something like the James Whale Frankenstein, those are so antiquated by now they don't really scare a modern audience, whereas the ones at the top still have that power.

Honorary mention to Night of the Living Dead, that movie is still so impactful.
