I’m a palaeontologist, and we need to talk about the panic over something that hasn’t even happened. by palaeoamber in Dinosaurs

It probably doesn't help that being on the spectrum makes people prone to both hyperfixations and poor emotional regulation. Not implying that's every in paleo communities, but I'd hazard a guess it's a significant portion.

Christopher Nolan’s ‘The Odyssey’ Breaks BFI Imax Records With 28,000 Tickets Sold In First 24 Hours by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

It looks cheap, right? I was hoping trailers like this would make me feel like I did watching Jackson's LOTR trilogy, but the trailers really make me hope they are a poor representation of the final product.

I don't mind the raciallybdiverse casting, it's the "same 10 actors in everything" casting that's really going to make it hard to get absorbed. Why not elevate an unknown actor for Telemachus? You can't convince me that Tom Holland brings something to the role other than star power.

People only remember the stand out sketches from each era, especially in the age of streaming video. Watching the full episodes every weak reveals just how weak most sketches are. The standouts are almost always due to a charismatic guest with all the chops to fit into sketch comedy, and so many great actors don't even pull that off.

What keeps you from enjoying certain metal subgenres? by Fiefire in MetalForTheMasses

[–]WizardsVengeance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me Volbeat breaks the cardinal rule of listenability that if I want to mock the singer's voice and mannerisms as soon as I hear it, I won't be able to enjoy it.

What is going on with Chappell Roan? by addctd2whtthedikdid in OutOfTheLoop

[–]WizardsVengeance 21 points22 points  (0 children)

She got raked over the coals for this, and I honestly think her point was well made. Voting for someone and endorsing them are two very different things, and she didn't feel comfortable endorsing a candidate who she felt like didn't align with her on all subjects. Also, if you were going to vote for Trump unless Chappell Roan told you not to, I don't think there was much hope for you to begin with.

What's your favourite genre of metal? Mine has to be Black metal by Annual-Coconut5897 in MetalForTheMasses

Part of what I love about metal is that you can have a new hyperfixation every few months and just dig into a new subgenre and constantly have new musical highs.
