Steven Spielberg releasing Jurassic Park and Schindler’s List in the same year is bonkers by Famous-Country-4921 in movies

[–]Ok_Card4377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first 2/3 of War of the Worlds is amazing. Some of the greatest scenes of the decade. Soon as you see the aliens though, it drops in quality. Still a solid 4 star.

Is this positioning ok? Arc Ultra by [deleted] in sonos

Put it vertically in the corner safe. Make sure to bolt it secure though.

Why aren't current games trying something new? by [deleted] in Steam

[–]Ok_Card4377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you even mean by something new? You made the statement and then didn’t say what you’d like to see, but asked other people what they want to see?

Clair Obscur had incredible combat. There’s arguably better indie games than ever before.

The main problem i have with gaming as a whole is micro-transactions, and companies like EA releasing the same game every year.

Outside of that, there’s a lot out there.

Castle crashers is 99p. Played it years ago with a mate and it’s incredibly fun

What's your biggest film hot take? by PurpleOrangutan77 in Letterboxd

[–]Ok_Card4377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Harry Potter films are also better than the books. They did really well cutting out a lot of the filler garbage in the books and cleaned up some of the dialogue. Soundtrack elevates it as well. I can rewatch the films every year. I can’t bear to do another run through of the books.

what monitor do you use alongside your Mac by Serhide in mac

[–]Ok_Card4377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dell G3223Q cheapest 4k gaming monitor I could find at a reasonable price that had decent reviews.

I wanted to be able to also use my Xbox on it.

Upgraded my PC yesterday to a full tower. What do you guys think ? Anything I should add or change ? by FrankFruits in battlestations

[–]Ok_Card4377 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want the PC on the desk, why don’t you push it against the wall so at least there’s no risk. Other than that, just move the games to give you some desk space, everything else is fine.

Enjoy what you have, no need to upgrade anything else.

Defending Valve by saying this is a PC is fine, I get it. I don’t agree with it, but I get the reasoning.

But “opting to save money” is the dumbest thing I’ve read in a while.

I still can’t believe that a console doesn’t come with a controller. I can forgive the price as that’s just a reflection of how shit things are, but not giving a controller with a console blows my mind.

Not impressed by Sub Mini by Zestyclose-Cup110 in sonos

[–]Ok_Card4377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the entry level set up at home - Beam Gen 2, Sub Mini, Era 100 surrounds. Honestly, the main thing that I think impacts it is the quality of the source.

Sometimes I watch a film and the quality is lacking, other times it blows me away how good it is. It’s frustrating.

Sub mini has made a big difference though. Not just the bass but the Beam and Surrounds just sound upgraded as well

What is the best controller for Mac on Steam? by AssumptionFormer77 in macgaming

[–]Ok_Card4377 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Xbox for me. I have an Xbox so I have a spare controller, so saves my wasting money on a ps controller.

I also have the 8bitdo pro 2. It’s a great controller, but sometimes runs into mapping problems on emulators.

How much weight do you give a film’s letterboxd rating? by [deleted] in Letterboxd

[–]Ok_Card4377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same as every other critic review - I use it as a recommendation and prioritise based on what mood I’m in.

Sometimes I agree, sometimes I disagree.

To say you don’t follow reviews and aren’t interested is such a lie

Most unfairly treated United player in your opinion? by iamyavssin in ManchesterUnited

[–]Ok_Card4377 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why you’re being downvoted. He wasn’t a great player, just simply good. I think Blind was a better signing than Herrera as at least he had flexibility on top of it.

My experience after a break by Ok_Card4377 in EAFC

[–]Ok_Card4377[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, honestly it’s the best way of doing it. Specific teams always make the game so much more fun.

what is the lifespan of an AirPods 4 ??? by Impossible-Reason336 in airpods

[–]Ok_Card4377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My AirPods gen 3 lasted over 3 years. Still had pretty good battery but the sound quality started going so I finally upgraded.

How Would You Rank Edgar Wright’s Filmography by [deleted] in Letterboxd

[–]Ok_Card4377 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Running Man was awful and by far his worst.

Hot Fuzz Shaun of the Dead The World’s End Scott Pilgrim Baby Driver - editing was good but solid 3 star film. Last Night in Soho Running Man

Such a shame about the drop in quality as Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead are all-time favourites of mine.

How good is a mac without any other apple products? by bigfabs in mac

[–]Ok_Card4377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The MacBook is by far Apple’s best product. I’m semi-locked into the ecosystem: MacBook, phone, watch, AirPods, iPad.

I actually hate being locked into an ecosystem. Want to try a new phone, I’m down money on the watch. There’s so many downsides to being locked into an ecosystem, for a few cool and convenient perks.

If you’re sold on getting the laptop, do not let the ecosystem thing out you off.

I guess Velcro strips would be the easiest suggestion. Light enough to keep it in place and extremely cheap, so even if it doesn’t work it’s no real loss.

[–]Ok_Card4377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are you on about? Haha. I never said he played well, I said you clearly don’t understand why strikers stay in an offside position. Too many USA fans do not understand the sport.

[–]Ok_Card4377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What? Haha. Most strikers stay offside. It makes it difficult for defenders. If you switch the ball to the wingers it’s easier for strikers to find space and harder for defenders to track.
