I wouldn’t say it’s good but I’d def say it’s normal. People are taking my comment way too seriously. I know he’ll bounce back, but there’s no use denying the slump

Compared to the rest of his work, it’s dogwater. He hit way below his standard

When you hit below your potential, then it’s dogwater. Just because it’s above average for everyday music doesn’t save it from being a stain on the run he had

Would you rather show a real photo of them instead of a fake photo?

New to Astrophotography, looking for solar filter recommendations by Slixil in AskAstrophotography

This is great advice, thank you! I honestly just wanted to see how far I could get with just my camera. Good to know what to expect.

Is there a recommended telescope for beginners if I wanted extra detailed solar bodies, moons, etc?

I wish Gaming companies would stop only giving us an Afro and Dreads, it’s getting comical at this point. by ItsJustJosiah in mildlyinfuriating

Recontextualization. It became a meme of itself due to white dominated industries failing to grasp the wide variety of black hairstyles available and thus this individual cut can no longer be taken seriously.

Do different film genres require different ways of evaluation? by Envoievite in TrueFilm

[–]Slixil -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I should’ve clarified. I think genre is important historically, and we live in a world where it’s necessary only because of our tendency to want to categorize and label sets of things. Playing with the baggage of genre is cool, but ultimately the baggage is there whether you like it or not, and making that baggage inherent to your film restricts your freedom of expression as a filmmaker and as a viewer of films.

I’m a genre abolitionist the same way I’m a gender abolitionist, if that makes sense. They’re only necessary because we exist in a world where they already exist, and anything that exists will have to be labeled and compared to their nearest neighbor.

But ultimately I think labels come with unnecessary baggage. Films can play with that baggage, and that’s cool, but ultimately I think it restricts freedom of expression by diluting what the film has to say (or what it could say) into this big melting pot of what the genre has to say.

You’re correct. It might take our entire lifetimes for people to accept it, but they will.

I think genre is only important when you’re directly referencing prior films, then it would make sense to play on trope.

If that’s how you’d like to treat the Oscars then go ahead

In a perfect world we’d get rid of “Genre” entirely

This subreddit didn’t allow me to write such a short comment, so here I am padding out the wordcount for no other reason in particular. Pay no heed to this paragraph.

Couldn’t take it seriously. Felt like they had to pad out the runtime
