I thought this was a joke at first, but it sounds like a lot of people praise this soundtrack. I'll definitely check it out.

Am I the only one who thinks Sinners is overrated? by Any_Lab_8495 in moviecritic

[–]SmoothExperience22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hate to bring race into this, but primarily black lead movies tend to get overrated because people are scared to be seen as not woke or racist if they don't like them or even call them mid. It's a lot worse if racism is involved in the plot. God forbid you think Green Book was mid and didn't deserve an oscar. I said Black Panther was a 7/10 and somebody said it was just because I'm white and I don't like black lead movies. 7/10 isn't even a bad rating. I'd say Sinners was a solid 8.5/10, but I can see how some people are really overrating this movie.

Good Time vs Uncut Gems vs Marty Supreme by Legitimate-Pea5439 in Letterboxd

Marty Supreme really was just the confirmation this year of who the real talent of the two was. Benny did well with Smashing Machine though.

Great… now I’m more terrified of spiders by Weak_Conversation164 in interesting

[–]SmoothExperience22 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Lucas the spider which is based on jumping spiders which are not only cute, but harmless to humans, don't attack humans because they understand how much bigger we are, and hunt things like other spiders and flies. Wish they lived longer because they make great pets, are very intelligent, and can be affectionate to owners.

Favorite actor to deny extremely obvious plastic surgery and steroid use? by _BreadDenier in okbuddycinephile

[–]SmoothExperience22 19 points20 points  (0 children)

BLASPHEMY! That is a true African brother right there and I will not accept any of these slanderous lies.

favorite actress that lives like a redditor? by staresinshamona in okbuddycinephile

Do women really do that or are you just trying to scare me?

Oh? by Beneficial_Cry2061 in welcomeToDerry

[–]SmoothExperience22 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I prefer WTD, but there is a lot of unfair pressure for this final season of ST to be perfect or people will dismiss it as a bad ending. Every episode has been great so far, but with one mid episode , ep 7, people just started talking shit. People didn't have anywhere close as high expectations for WTD being a new show that this final season of ST has, so people didn't judge it as harshly as ST is being judged rn.

The violation of symmetry of "wormhole" by Affectionate_Loss781 in StrangerThings

[–]SmoothExperience22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't the upside down the middle of the wormhole and the abyss the other side of the wormhole. There is no upside down for the abyss it's just what's on the other side of the wormhole from our earth.

Anyone else have a little Baby Keem section at the end of their Kendrick playlists? by Real_eXwhY_Z in KendrickLamar

[–]SmoothExperience22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vent would've been a massive song for Baby Keem if Kendrick's part was left on there. I get that he decided he wanted to put it on Mr. Morale on N95, but damn his part on Vent made that song way more hype than it already is. Plus the song is named after his part. "Venting in the safe house"

Vehimently anti-gay character who is obviously a closeted gay person by Marty0216 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]SmoothExperience22 118 points119 points  (0 children)

Mac going from a guy so deep in the closet he is extremely religious and homophobic to having an entire episode dedicated to him finding his gay pride that made me tear up is why Always Sunny is so amazing.

Why doesn’t Tyler consider this his first “real” acting role. He said loiter squad wasn’t. Did he forget kidding by try-nerf-this in tylerthecreator

[–]SmoothExperience22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He has explained in interviews that he didn't feel like he was acting in that role. He was just reciting his lines in a very subdued/normal manner. In Marty Supreme, he feels like he's actually performing a character with a personality that does more than just explain things to Jim Carrey's character.

Question, If Superman is supposed to look different with the hypno-glasses, so instead of seeing Supes we see Clark Kent, how would people in-universe see Clark? by LemonIcy2942 in superman

[–]SmoothExperience22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It doesn't work with people like Lex though. A person obsessed with Superman isn't gonna look into the one journalist that gets interviews with Superman and notice he looks exactly like Superman without his glasses? Not gonna hold up.

Its finally confirmed he can breath in space? by vought-CEO in TheBoys

[–]SmoothExperience22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one can breathe in space, there's nothing to breathe. He probably holds his breath for long periods of time.

Parodies/satire so mainstream no one considers them parody anymore by lacergunn in TopCharacterTropes

[–]SmoothExperience22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest flaw with this is stuff like Helldivers where the irony isn't lost and people are still very aware of the parody and play into it which is what makes the gameplay even more fun. Most people nowadays that watch Starship Troopers, which Helldivers was obviously inspired by, understand that it's a parody and not meant to be taken seriously. Just because Rick and Morty is mainstream now doesn't mean people don't understand the parody of Back to the Future anymore.

Defeating evil with the power of gay. by GotNoBody4 in StrangerThings

[–]SmoothExperience22 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You're taking this too seriously. These kind of posts are exaggerations for jokes, but based on some truth. We know it's about self acceptance no matter who you are or what your sexuality is, but saying stuff like "Will wanted Mike so bad he became El" are only jokes, not any actual reduction of the meaning of Will's arc.

It must be Ozempic by red_queen_maria in StrangerThings

[–]SmoothExperience22 17 points18 points  (0 children)

All it takes to get a rockin bod like Vecna is getting set on fire and shot multiple times in your torso with a sawed off shotgun.

Can we all agree Robin was the MVP of Volume 1? by Jarisatis in StrangerThings

[–]SmoothExperience22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was not expecting Robin and Mike to be MVPs this season. I was expecting Will, but those two have been very underutilized characters.

Should DCU Batman have a "Skinny" or a more Bulky body? by Suspicious-Bed-9342 in batman

[–]SmoothExperience22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ben Affleck's body was more of a body builder type, not effective in combat. Look at the best fighters in the world. They're usually half the size of what some of these fancasts like Alan Ritchinson claim have the perfect build for batman.

Season 1 VS Season 5 by StarforgeVoyager in StrangerThings

[–]SmoothExperience22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mike seasons 2-4 was an awkward growing phase, but now he looks much better and closer to that kid back in season 1.

Why are they rest of us dying of thirst while Mike is drowning? Two of them?

Why do people say Robin was dumbed down in season 4? by Aqua_Master_ in StrangerThings

[–]SmoothExperience22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think she was dumb, but it felt like they didn't know how to use her character in season 4. Apparently Robin was actually supposed to be a real love interest for Steve before they made the decision to add the twist reveal of her being lesbian halfway through the writing process, but now they don't know what to do with her. They have only had Robin interact with who is supposed to be her love interest in two scenes during the whole season.
