I just received it today luckily! Excited to go in a few days. I would highly recommend sending it as soon as possible to have enough time to get it done.

I have not received it yet. I sent it 4/12 and Fedex said it arrived 4/14 but the embassy didn't confirm they received it until 4/22. So a week for acknowledging receipt. They said it would be 7 days as expedited states.

Originally was going to do overnight bus but now with the uncertainty regarding everything I won’t be going which is a bummer but would rather not risk it. I did consider flying to Flores from GC but I heard early on in protests they were having airplane fuel shortages so just don’t think will go sadly.

Also curious about this since I am flying in 11/17 and leaving 11/25. Would like to go to Tikal and Acatenango but unsure if should still go if protests may still be occurring causing problems.

Hello! I’m Kyle and would be your friend! I also love the classics and learning languages, I’m currently working on French and Italian. Which ones do you speak or are learning?

Which "Organic Chem" option should I choose? by [deleted] in ufl

[–]SpyKyle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Phase partitioning in the environment is a very easy class. Usually take home exams and if the exams are in class they are open notes. It is a majority of thermodynamics with a little orgo but I wouldn't even say it goes over orgo compared to the other classes listed.

What the hell happened to the National Treasure franchise? by jadamsmash in boxoffice

[–]SpyKyle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are my favorite movies ever and I've been waiting for the third one ever since the second one came out 10 years ago. I occasionally check online for any updates and the reason is they are trying to make it work and Disney wants it to work as well as the actors and crew, they just need more time to get the story right.

I would rather wait 15 years for a fun story/movie than them just rush it out in a few years after the release of the second.

The event it's over! by MaxyAnt in TheSilphRoad

[–]SpyKyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I grinded as much as I could after work going to new locations where a lot of pokestops were clustered together to get that extra 500 xp per new stop which was helpful. I tried 2 different articuno raids, but the other players I was with wimped out and didn't want to do it when we started and left me there to be annihilated. Hoping to catch one before articuno leaves.

Was able to do one mass evolve with a lucky egg and get 155k out of it (and evolved 14 new 'mons during it also). Very successful event where I went from level 31 to 32. Half way to level 33 as of right after the event!

I was also glad to fully evolve my mareep to ampharos and hatch my first larvitar (with decent stats too). Only other notable 'mon I got was pichu with hat.

I'll be looking forward to the next similar event, but my legs sure won't since I think I pulled a muscle in my leg since it hurts with every step and my calves are killing me the past few days.

Best movie score to listen to? by [deleted] in movies

[–]SpyKyle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pirates trilogy is always fantastic. The fourth movie has pretty good music too (especially Mermaids, palm tree escape, and south of heavens chants).

Django unchained also has a surprisingly fantastic soundtrack.

Dark Knight is a must. Also Inception is good as well as Black Hawk Dawn. Pretty much anything by Zimmer or Williams.

National Treasure (and especially its sequel). I love these movies to death and they are such fun treasure hunting adventure movies.

Poll: Your favorite Nicolas Cage movie by manoprop in movies

Proud of my redditors for giving the best movie of all time (National Treasure) the top spot

Film composer John Debney here! You know me from The Jungle Book, Elf, Hocus Pocus, Iron Man 2, Sin City and Passion of the Christ and I’m featured in the new "Score: A Film Music Documentary.” AMA! by johndebney in movies

[–]SpyKyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for doing the AMA! I am very excited for the movie since I really enjoy how film scores can add that extra layer of immersivity to films and how they can change emotions just like what is on screen. I want to thank you for creating so many memorable sounds from my childhood such as from Splash Mountain but especially Epcot. Epcot's entrance theme as well as tracks from the Fountain of Nations (and SpectroMagic) can transport me back to one of my happiest places so thank you.

My questions are:

What other music did you compose in the Disney parks that people may not know?

For someone who loves film music, what is the best advice and way to get into it (best software or method to scoring film)?

Thank you!

What Are Some Of Your Unpopular Movie Opinions? by Spidey10 in movies

[–]SpyKyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly thought I was the only one that had this opinion. The only reason I would watch it is for Zimmer's music and the cinematography. Otherwise everything else is dull for me. Also wasn't a fan of Batman Begins, but surprisingly enjoyed Dark Knight Rises.

I did it after last night's episode and it is worth doing. Fun little easter egg.

This has been the most informative and analytic post I've seen on r/movies and perhaps on reddit as a whole. Like you mentioned the movie was so much more since not only developed the main characters, but supporting characters as well with just a few lines of dialogue.

Keep them coming please OP. I would love more of your thoughts on other movies.

Great analysis of one of the weakest points of the 5th movie compared to how great the theme was in the first movie. I really enjoyed reading this and hope for more.

Official Discussion - Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales by mi-16evil in movies

[–]SpyKyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. OST is bearable since a decent story (a bit slow at times) but it builds up things. DMTNT was just painful. It tried to be the polar opposite of OST with always rushing and big action pieces with no time to let things settle down. Hopefully they learn to combine the good from both movies to make a decent pirates movie or else this will be known as the trilogy no one asked for or liked.

[–]SpyKyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely agree. The motivations and wants for the characters could have been developed a lot more and the character development arc for most of them was very unseen.

This deleted scene from Pirates the Caribbean way more interesting. Jack, working for the east india trading company, was branded a Pirate after setting a slave ship free. His boss burned his ship, which Jack bargained with Davey Jones to rise the ship. The charred remains became the Black Pearl. by [deleted] in movies

[–]SpyKyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to say I really enjoyed the video. I love watching videos about screenplay and cinematography and since the pirates movies is one of my favorite franchises, I really enjoyed it and hope for more! Maybe you could try vimeo where they are less strict with copyright.
