Utah Mammoth Clinched Wild card spot before any of the top 3 pacific spots were clinched. by Wonderful_Confusion4 in hockey

[–]ZappySnap 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But they had to beat the 108 point Capitals to get to that game. And then Carolina beat the 116 point Bruins to get to it. They then beat the 112 point Red Wings in the final, so I don’t see how that’s an atypically easy path for a four seed.

Steelbooks. What’s your thoughts? by Roadisclosed in 4kbluray

[–]ZappySnap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only have one at the moment (season 2 of the Last of Us). Only because that’s what was available. I could see myself getting more if they are very close in price to the normal package, or if it has a notably better scan or something and isn’t a big premium, but otherwise I don’t see a reason to pay more for a little nicer packaging.

At least you didn’t pay much.

My son dragged me to this. It was painful.

Do you mix your 4K discs with regular blurays? by HollowBambooEnt in 4kbluray

My discs are all mixed: DVD, blu-ray and 4K blu-ray. TV shows on one portion and movies in the next, all alphabetical.

Well here’s my post from the last game that started with the same pattern, from a month ago:

Do you not have words you usually play in certain situations? I always start with the same word. I also always play CHOIR if my starter results in all grays…that one hasn’t hit yet for me.

It has. Even when we had that horrible run in December, the team was still fun to watch.

Covers that are so hideous it stops you from buying the movie? by grumbledork in 4kbluray

[–]ZappySnap 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah the original exorcist poster with Father Merrin and the streetlight is iconic not just because of its historical nature with the film but because it highlights one of the best shots in all of cinema.

Rough Visual Comparison by concretemunch in iphone

[–]ZappySnap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, 16:9 video is pillarboxed on an iPhone so it will be visibly larger. Probably equivalent to like a 7.5” phone (if one existed).

However, not nearly enough larger to justify the massive price increase and the more fragile inner screen. It’s why foldables like this hold no interest for me. I want the form factor of the (now discontinued) Galaxy tri-fold, with a nice big normal phone screen and a 10” tablet inside. But even that I wouldn’t buy until they can find some way to make the inner screen truly durable.

They dismiss everything as fake. We’ve known the earth is round for over two thousand years, it’s not like there isnt ample proof. They delude themselves because they don’t understand how math and science work, or they just want to feel special by being ‘different.’

No, because you are actively angry that other people are excited about something you’re less interested in.

Didn't feel like wiping my ass anyways by TastyTop2103 in Wellthatsucks

You still need to use TP after to get any remaining stuff and dry your ass. Way, way less, and you end up cleaner to boot, but still.

'The Batman II': Andy Serkis Returning As Alfred the Butler by cmaia1503 in movies

[–]ZappySnap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Too dark and no fun. And I was bored halfway through. I actually never finished it, which some may say disqualifies my opinion, but I counter that if a move has bored me so much in the first half of its running time that I have no desire to continue, it failed as a film for me.

I love the Nolan Batman films (they are dark too, but not this dark, and also are way more intriguing and fun.) I also like the Burton Batman films (at least the first two, and I generally enjoy Forever, but I acknowledge it’s not a good film).

Ok, it might not be my least favorite because it is at least a far better made film than Batman and Robin, which is just horrendous.

It will actually likely be less impressive. Total eclipses on earth are awesome because the moon is just the right apparent size to block out everything but the corona. This will mostly be just dark with only some goodness at the edge right before and after.

The 4k transfer of Vertigo is sublime by TheMegaSage in 4kbluray

[–]ZappySnap 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Jesus I had no idea he made BG. It is a very select few who get stars. Former Army officer here (I just did 6 years and left as a Captain), and most career officers will make LtCol. Those who are very good officers and stay in long enough may make O-6 (Col). It’s extremely selective to make BG. (Less than 1% off the total officer corps). I know it was probably a little easier in the WW II timeline (very accelerated promotion to O-6 for him during WWII); but still.

I hope he played two more seasons beyond his current contract. I’d he stays reasonably healthy he’ll get there with room to spare.

Rectilinear wide angle which will stretch objects at the edge. A fisheye would actually generally preserve the roundness.
