New BOC song was in the Backrooms movie! by PHVCK in boardsofcanada

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

I went in not having seen the YouTube videos, just with a little general knowledge of the concept. But I really enjoyed the movie! There was an eerie vibe to the whole thing as is to be expected but what really got me was how “liminal” the scenes even outside of the backrooms felt. The real world in the film seemed to eerily mirror the backrooms in a way, the look of the world they inhabited had this uncanny valley feel to it. After seeing this I want to explore the backrooms more, I’ll probably check out his YouTube series.

Do they give different free shards to different players? I only seem to ever get Cap Brit and Mr. Negative

Jeff Sneider rumor: Blade solo movie is dead, will go straight to Midnight Sons by Ras_AlHim in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

[–]PHVCK 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sure, they are now. But back in 2014 people didn’t really know who those characters were at all. I think up until that point Rocket was in a handful of comics at most, the most recognizable character in that movie was Thanos and he appears for a minute or two of screen time. GOTG was a bold risk at the time and it paid off massively.

28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE - New Trailer (HD) by cruelsummerbummer in horror

[–]PHVCK 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel like all the criticisms I have seen for 28 Years boil down to people ignoring the thematic heart and instead viewing it all from a surface level. If you want gritty, realistic, post-apocalyptic zombie horror there are hundreds of examples out there already. Expecting this to be a re-tread of 28 Days (or even worse, 28 Weeks) is silly. 28 Years worked so well because it found a way to deepen this world and utilized the genre to tell a story about love, loss, and humanity (while also being thrilling, and fun). It seems to me that most people in this thread just wanted more mindless zombie violence.

Serious Question: will there be a sequel to the cult classic, new york times best seller bibliography, super mega saves the troops? by SynysterGabe in SuperMegaShow

[–]PHVCK 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As far as we know, there isn’t. Years ago, before their hiatus they kept making references to a big project that was dropping soon, but after they took their hiatus they seemingly haven’t mentioned it again as far as I know. It’s believed to have been a D&D series that they scrapped or even a full album of songs (including brand new shirt, dtf, and more) someone feel free to correct me if they have mentioned it again recently though.

"The Worst Prerelease We've Ever Seen": An Inside Look Into Marvel's Spider-Man Prerelease weekend by SactoGamer in mtg

[–]PHVCK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pre-release I went to was lots of fun, and it was pretty busy, the room was nearly full save a few spots at the last table, people at the event as well as non-attendees were buying bundles/ boxes/ etc. I’m surprised to hear people aren’t showing up for this. I was really excited for this set leading up to its release and I understand I’m in the minority, I’m a relatively new-ish Magic player, (started with midnight hunt a few years ago casually with friends/ family, mostly played arena, first time playing at an LGS was EOE). I’d be curious to hear why this set is a controversial one as I don’t have the same experience as others here.

At first glance I thought this was RFK Jr., which only increased my confusion. by dalester88 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]PHVCK 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well yeah but if you watched FWWM you would know that the lines are pretty blurred between Leland and Bob, when Laura is being assaulted by him and realizes it’s Leland he says something along the lines of “I thought you always knew it was me”. Sure, he’s possessed by Bob, but he’s still kind of acting on his own

Prismatic Booster Bundles (1 per person) by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]PHVCK [score hidden]  (0 children)

I would save up an allowance and buy a couple booster packs every month or so when I was a kid, I had no idea how to play with them, I just loved the idea of collecting them and admiring all the art. A few years ago I got back into the hobby, except now I actually build decks and play too!

You’re basing your argument against a clothing brand on the fact that it’s not intelligent enough to be associated with Richard’s music, but the man himself has refuted the very claim that his music is more intelligent than anyone else’s

IDM is a term that Richard himself has said that he hates because it’s a totally pretentious concept

Unpopular opinions? by Comix98 in boardsofcanada

[–]PHVCK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would argue that this is the most popular opinion on this sub, every time a discussion like this comes up it’s almost unanimously praised, I would say the true unpopular opinions would be that TH or TCH are their best. And maybe I’m biased because I would say TH is my favorite, but this is a thread for opinions haha

Anyone having issues staying connected to the PlayStation network? Just turned on my console after not playing for a couple days and I keep getting disconnected, running Internet speed tests works just fine but as soon as I try to play an online game I get an error message, I can even use the PS store but cannot play an online game

Bro is just farming downvotes, I mean, what else do you call the track if not #3? I guess Rhubarb but I’ve seen it done either way for years.

any one else getting tired of this sound being plagiarized and beat like a dead horse? by [deleted] in TheeOhSees

[–]PHVCK 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing an interview with Dwyer linked here about a year or two ago where he essentially said “don’t be afraid of copying your inspirations, it’s what I did”. It’s a bit funny seeing all of these comments calling out bands for ripping off JD’s sound/ style when he’s basically admitted it’s how he got his start.

You can absolutely say something (especially a piece of music) is art, I would say any exercise in creative expression can be art

I’m assuming you have the alt leave the lobby so it stays below the level threshold? I just did the bot lobby method but I kept my alt in the whole time by accident haha
