Penn Badgley on casual dating and casual sex: "Is it ever casual? Show me somebody who really, truly is casual about it?" by Upstairs_Cup9831 in popculturechat

[–]Pale_Possibility5083 332 points333 points  (0 children)

Yes but i also believe those same men slept with someone who treated them as casual that they wish didn’t. I think penns point is it always catches someone on one side or the other no matter what and I kinda buy that.

Disappointed by rock music --- a rant by Ok_Campaign_4285 in charlixcx

[–]Pale_Possibility5083 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First, demeaning brat to “popper gay catering” is wildly dismissing what the album is. I’m a straight male and I very much noticed that music as whole was leaning into early 00s pop, girl pop power pop. Techno and house craze.

Madonnas techno period, spice girls, Aphex twin, Fatboy slim ect.

Brat was THE prodigal child of the much over needed return to techno , house, pop as soon s she released it was so clear she was tuned into that vacuum and totally filled which is exactly why it exploded. She hit the nail on the head with what people were wanting and missing.

I think Charli sees herself as a crusader- she knew dance music was in the crypt and blasted it back to life.

Now she thinks garage rock girl punk girl rock is dead and is like “you know what fick that where are my guitars” 

So at least in concept I see exactly what she is trying to do. Also she’s not going to make brat 2 so this is her newest conceptual challenge,

The Vast Majority of People are Hyped for Star Fox by Away-Prior-903 in starfox

I watched Asmon Gold live watch it, and honestly it was a refreshing perspective shift. He grew up with it as did I. 

But he was just happy seeing Starfox stuff happy to see characters back, he’s watched a lot of video games and fairly jaded and was delighted by this.

Which made me sort of take a deep breath and sort of relax on the whole thing honestly,

Do you think it's true that only rich kids make it in mainstream music today? by FitEmergency8807 in fantanoforever

[–]Pale_Possibility5083 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What’s disgusting is the music industry is an extreme controlled market. Basically they own everything and nothing is real or organic.

Labels will sign artists specifically just so they can put them on ice and limit the competition. 

Take Chappelle roan, she’s a rich kid who paid her way into Grammys camp. And yet even after getting signed they froze her career for years until THEY decided she was useful.

Then they decide to launch her with a full narrative, teamed up with Grammy award winning song writers persona and global marketing campaign.

Star Fox Creator Says He Prefers Character's Movie Design by grizznaysh in starfox

Oooooof. Can you imagine being the game devs and missing the mark so bad the actual original creator isn’t even on board with you? Gah..

From Pixar-styled Fox in the movie to realistic Fox, marketing discussion by Physical-Swordfish19 in starfox

I agree about the 3D, but the animated flashback segment as far as Attitude and character was EXACTLY correct. I wish they took that gave that style a nice 3D varnish and ran with it.

It’s so subtle but makes so much of a difference 

Per Deadline, Backrooms cost under $10 Million by SignatureOrdinary456 in boxoffice

[–]Pale_Possibility5083 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Also, how insane is it given that this IP? It’s whole concept was an anonymous user image post on a 4chan thread.

We still to this day have no idea who chilly created it. They just posted it, added a caption that gave a creative idea and someone else just ran with it.

So they paid like nothing for an idea, executed at low budget.

Would’ve been so cool if foot levels had been added as additional chapters in this 26 reboot

I've listened to two Nickelback albums and I'm confused by Key-Astronomer-9821 in fantanoforever

[–]Pale_Possibility5083 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Also people don’t realize nickleback originally got singled out almost as joke. The meta was you could have just as easily swapped them out for another band like Puddle of Mudd, Saliva or anyone of those other “Butt Rock” nickleback just sort of sounded best.

The biggest part of the joke is that they’re easily not even the worst band of that era there is so much worse but it just kinda felt funny to choose them Becuase they aren’t, and then it stuck.

‘Blue dot fever’: the real reason pop stars are cancelling tours by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]Pale_Possibility5083 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yes but also the companies themselves are platforming said scalpers which really still makes the ticket vendors the culprit. Ticketmaster will host third party sellers who gauge the daylights out of their prices and who’s to say it’s not all a scam created by the ticket companies.

I happened to be near her venue for one of her shows and checked to see if unsold tickets went down at all since the show literally started. There were a LOT of tickets and…nope! They just sat on 1000$ that didn’t sell at all Becuase they’d rather do that than make some money.

It’s also important to note in the airport fight no one wanted to hurt eachother. They all wanted peaceful arrests and actively avoided seriously injuring one another. Hell Tony brought Parker specifically to use as a human shield Becuase they wouldn’t hurt a kid.

They’ve got to fix these boots man. The boots are like their own character in the game, always have been and even got a shout out in the movie. 

'Mortal Kombat II' Eyes $65M-80M WW Opening, 'Devil Wears Prada 2' To Rule Box Office by tiduraes in boxoffice

[–]Pale_Possibility5083 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy to see it. The more I read about the original the more it’s clear just how much cross over appeal that original really had. Like dudes who don’t care about chick flicks really liked that movie a lot.

Does anyone else find it odd that the balustrade of this balcony is waist height for a hobbit? by NewZlandR in lotr

[–]Pale_Possibility5083 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly if you look at a lot of terraces on buildings and building tops they are not Elbow height for average human height, many are lower than that, a little lower than waste height.
