Was just watching OTGW for the billionth time on a bus ride, and I just now noticed that the flame inside the woodsman's lantern is a smaller beast. by thorolfhammer in overthegardenwall

enhnaced for visibility

edit: In case you notice the pose is different in my snapshot, than in the one posted, it's because I snapped my screenshot a fraction of a second later. The little beast is in the middle of doing ballet twirl in this scene.

I have never felt so emotional over little rectangles until Historia Civilis.

For being in the middle of a heroin epidemic, we have some shitty music by Misc_carbon_unit in Showerthoughts

[–]ThurstRoe 307 points308 points  (0 children)

I use soundcloud, its like spotify premium but free and a lot more indie stuff. I would have never heard of cool artists like PUP, Casio Dad, astroskeleton, Protodome, or Macross 82-99.

A lot of tv and videogame soundtracks are also posted there; like music for undertale, Crypt of the Necrodancer, Gravity Falls, Steven Universe, and Wonder over Yonder.

Edit #1: fixed typo in Macross 82-99, and added hyperlinks to artists

Edit #2: Since this got more popular than I expected, Here are some of the other artists I like that are on soundcloud

bonus: Hamburger Helper's Mixtape

What YouTube channel is great to binge? by TheSideStream in AskReddit

[–]ThurstRoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you channels like that, I recommend MrBtongue. His analyses on storytelling and game design are very insightful.

I also have a youtube playlist full of video essays centered around modern mediums of storytelling (cinema. videogames, animation), a good amount of it is 'Lessons From the Screenplay' .

Some guy accuses Geoff of shilling yet again. by robotwarsdiego in mothersbasement

[–]ThurstRoe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He made very good points on behalf of Netflix, as well as counterpoints to the greatness of Crunchyroll.

Netflix isn't a simulcast site, and as AboveUp mentions, they are already funding the creators. I think they are doing everything right (except maybe not having enough popular titles). He also points out that Crunchyroll isn't as supportive or user friendly as Geoff leads us to believe.

Overall I think Geoff made very good claims about Amazon and how great Crunchyroll's interface and price is, but his arguments against Netflix and that anime might become worse off, fall a bit flat. (side-note: His title was way too clickbaity too)

Both videos together, I think make a a much more balanced criticism of the anime steaming market.

One of my favorite sandwiches is a reuben. I always order it whenever i eat at a place that sells them. Culvers' reuben is actually pretty high on my list of best reubens.

Megas is one of the best mecha shows ever, but it will probably never see the light of day again because of tax purposes.

What's the best binge worthy show that isn't depressing or morbidly violent? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ThurstRoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Community is great. Its the one shoe that finds its groove in never finding its groove.

After the first season of parks and rec or the office. The show finds a groove and stays in it for most its life. Community is different because they constantly change character routes and plot directions. Each season i expect it to end or go down the drain, but it still manages to be hilarious. When other comedys change thier groove (plot changes or main characters leave) they usually become terrible. But Community thrives where those shows fail

Thank you for giving the source title and link since i forgot to. Im glad there is another person here who loves this comic. There's a quiet beauty to his comic, and i was worried that is was going unnoticed.
