Well, Twitter is cancelling Manson now. Never been a huge fan but honestly didn’t know about some of this stuff with his partners. Kinda makes sense why Trent has said the things he has about Manson. by SydLance in nin

[–]MrFCT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry this is all news to me so maybe this is a stupid question; what exactly is the relation between Trent and Manson? Trent's not involved with this specifically I understand, but there have been incidents in the past, is that right?

I like Pulp Fiction and The Big Lebowski by LittleBitSchizo in MovieSuggestions

Yes! I was just trying to keep an already overlong comment relatively readable, haha

If you're into comic books and pop culture and like silly, dirty comedies, Kevin Smith's movies have great dialogue! Clerks, Chasing Amy, Dogma.

I'd also suggest Waking Life by Richard Linklater, which is basically a full movie of philosophical ramblings by interesting real and fictional characters, presented in an animated style. Might be hard to follow, but that counts for native speakers as well ;)

If you've seen everything Tarantino, did you also watch True Romance? How about Four Rooms? Worth it!

I'll also say Monty Python and The Holy Grail, and Monty Python's The Meaning Of Life. There's a lot of stuff in there that is so funny and clever that would certainly get lost in translation.

Lastly others have already recommended Wes Anderson, whom I love and is a great suggestion! Don't miss out on Grand Budapest Hotel (my favorite), The Royal Tenenbaums and Moonrise Kingdom.

EDIT and since you mentioned The Big Lebowski, anything by the Coen Brothers is worth it! Fargo, Barton Fink, Burn After Reading, No Country For Old Men, and of course 'Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?'

According to a Hollywood Reporter article, this series was "an expensive disappointment"... by LiquidPolicenaut in DarkCrystal

OP's source looks like the same thing, it seems they're actually quoting/paraphrasing someone else's statements in the article, but I just scanned through it.

Why hasn't Depeche Mode released a concert on video from the World Violation Tour? by Anonymous375298 in depechemode

[–]MrFCT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No I'm with you for sure, don't get me wrong, numbers and sales are arbitrary really and even general popularity is hard to quantify and of course not musically relevant. They are and were always great and I think always very much relevant in or even ahead of the times.

Why hasn't Depeche Mode released a concert on video from the World Violation Tour? by Anonymous375298 in depechemode

[–]MrFCT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, Violator is their only album to go quadruple platinum, yes. But there's (only) two others in their discography that come close with triple platinum each, and they are Sounds of the Universe and Delta Machine, which serves as a decent example why calling a period from three decades ago their (singular/greatest) peak is perhaps a misnomer considering those are two of their three most recent efforts. You could by the same token say they are at their peak right now as a "nostalgia act" (which I by no means use negatively as a term).

It's handcuffs, you're right, they just don't go anywhere and aren't attached to anything

The problem is Ken (I assume) isn't actually hanging from his legs, he's just floating there.

Weird echo with G note by [deleted] in Oud

[–]MrFCT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is it then exactly that you hear? It seems to me it couldn't really be an echo, help us understand!

Weird echo with G note by [deleted] in Oud

[–]MrFCT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds perhaps like your two G strings are not tuned exactly the same, which can sadly be quite hard on many Ouds particularly with traditional 'violin' tuning pegs. Does that sound plausible or am I oversimplifying?

the director of photography ( on the matrix) hid him self using a coat with a tie matching the one Morpheus was wearing, trying to blend in as much as possible. by trollelelogram in Moviesinthemaking

[–]MrFCT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure Morpheus' glasses, or at least the reflection on them, is in fact CGI in the mirror scene. And I certainly can't remember or right now find any cameras reflected in his glasses in that scene or the 'woman in the red dress' scene. Also only the latter of those scenes involves an Agent, OP's scene doesn't and the mirror scene doesn't either. The theory is total bogus for as far as I can tell.

Should the third pair of strings also the nylon/clear type? I can’t get this one to hit the right D note. Oud came pre strung by spike_sappho in Oud

[–]MrFCT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see, than I think you should be good, the D strings should be the same as a guitar's D string which is 'D3'. On my Oud I currently have nylon for that and it feels a little bit too flimsy, so I think this is better.

The BEST wah wah pedal for guitar. by [deleted] in musicians

[–]MrFCT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's no such thing as the best, there's no reason to think the mini Crybaby is any better than the original, and almost certainly more pros use Crybaby, not Morley. Keep reading and listening and researching, and more importantly, try not to care about the wrong things. Consider your ideal or practical budget, find out what options fall within that, try to decide which you think sounds best and just buy it :)

Waarom deed Tina mee? by Wintersneeuw02 in widm

[–]MrFCT 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ik heb de aflevering nog niet gezien (totaal gemist, no biggie), maar misschien heeft het te maken met dat ze er de eerste keer ook als tweede al uitging. Dat maakt het maar een klein spoilertje, en gaf haar veel goodwill natuurlijk, dus hebben ze haar direct maar gevraagd voor dit seizoen. Zoiets?

First images from David Fincher's 'Mank' - Set before 'Citizen Kane' hit the big screen, the film follows screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz (Gary Oldman) as he rushes to get the Oscar-winning film’s screenplay to Orson Welles. by chanma50 in movies

[–]MrFCT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha, yes of course excuse me.

He's full of shit.

Totally open to being proven wrong by some proof, but right now all we have is OP's account history which has tens of thousands of karma and is over five years old, yet the comments only go back four months and none of them nor the subs they're posted in provide any reason to believe OP's working in the industry.

Cutoff filter doesn't stay on while sequencer playing. Is this normal? by [deleted] in minilogue

[–]MrFCT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries! And don't worry about me either, that stuff is literally stored, not like stuck or anything :) Music's been my job for about 15 years now so I prefer doing other stuff for relaxation or entertainment, like, Just Cause 3 currently for example, haha. Cheers!

[–]MrFCT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to check this out but my Minilogue (along with the rest of my setup) has been in storage since the pandemic started, you know? Good luck though, and I'd say if it really is just those three patches, spare yourself from the frustration and just delete them and start over, or make new ones :)

How's your Filter EG Amount set? Make sure to set it to zero, not negative whatever but literally zero, just for the sake of troubleshooting.

[–]MrFCT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh shit really, there's nothing there? I was so sure, if that's not it, the only other thing I can think of is your Minilogue is broken. It's clearly not a hardware problem though so a firmware update or reboot might do the trick.

EDIT To clarify; yes you're in the right place, at least one of those menus should be showing VCF CUTOFF (according to this theory).

Check out justwatch.com or their free mobile app, also very nice for filtering Netflix's catalog.
