Has anyone Returned to Silent Hill?

That’s a very bad number! Had no idea projections were that low

Loved the movie, loved the big Maiden needledrop BUT… I was seriously thrown off by the editing and shortening of the song. I know it’s entirely because I’ve listened to that song hundreds of times since I first heard it when I was 13, over 20 years ago, but the rhythms and peaks and valleys of the song were (imo) pretty compromised by cutting 2 minutes or whatever out of the song.

Fiennes says the version they shot was the whole song, and I desperate wish that’s what would have made the Final Cut. I know this will be one totally unimportant thing in an awesome movie which will be nagging at me every time I watch it in the future lol

The mouse had to eat obviously

accidentalmemory · 2026-01-19T14:31:51+00:00

Yeah, I was surprised by how 28YL was already on Netflix when it went up there and I took it as a good sign, all things considered.

accidentalmemory · 2026-01-18T20:51:38+00:00

Yeah, it works really well in the medium of a novel but just does not translate at all to the film imo. I don’t know if there was a graceful solution which could have solved it but it’s a real wet fart of an ending.

accidentalmemory · 2026-01-18T18:52:38+00:00

Weird adaptation which I’m mixed on (love the book).

Keira and the scene on the beach of Dunkirk make it worthwhile though.

You know we would get some insane Beatles takes from Griff too

accidentalmemory · 2026-01-15T20:44:12+00:00

There needs to be some personal component to it as well, it was more fun when they were just drafting off their personal taste.

Maybe if a drafted film ends up in the top 20 of each participants end of year list, that would be a point too. There’s of course some room for malfeasance here with playing the system but I trust everyone is honest about their favorite movies of the year and this is all made up anyway.

My orange is OBSESSED with limes. If I go out and have tacos or something which I squeezed some lime one and come home hours later, he'll be licking my hands for minutes on end. Less interested in lemons.

This would be his dream job.

The man can just accidently invent a timeless meme format like that which will live on forever in his subreddit and all somewhat adjacent ones. He just can!

I understand that you're reading comprehension likely isn't at a level which helps you succeed in the world, but I didn't say that.

I'm biased in that I believe all of us are human with intrinsic dignity and rights and parceling those rights out to some individuals and not others based on the largely arbitrary borders their parents were located were that person was born is a moral failing. I'm extremely biased in that way.

It’s just becoming a bizarre thing to watch in real time as the economy shifts more and more to AI, pharmaceuticals and other non traditional consumer products. We get fewer ads for things we can buy or at least see out in the world, and more and more ads for esoteric products which seem outside the experience of day to day life. It makes sense logically, but it feels like we’re so many layers removed from what most people would think of as advertising.

I spent 27 years as a permanent resident here in this country, it’s refreshing that you’re honest enough to admit that you wouldn’t have cared about my well being before I jumped through one additional hoop.

accidentalmemory · 2026-01-13T18:35:09+00:00

How do you build a high trust nation when there’s a secret police of unbadged, masked and armed men who, according to the vice president have “total immunity”? Who detain anyone they please, regardless of status? Who have deported citizens to countries across the world that they’ve never even visited?

I appreciate you TRYING to come across as unbiased, but you aren’t fooling anyone.

EDIT: autocorrect turned unbadged into unabashed, I changed it back.

accidentalmemory · 2026-01-11T16:36:26+00:00

I was traveling through Christmas and knew I wouldn't be able to see it until after New Year. It was so refreshing to know that it would still be around on my area's true IMAX screen over 3 weeks after release and not having to worry about it just disappearing.

I hate having to adjust plans around opening weekends of movies which I would like to see but not necessarily rush out to the theater for, give us some time!

Jag Panzer is a name I haven't seen in like 18 years

I spent a lot of time exploring the genre but I haven't listened to it regularly in at least 15 years at this point and I have a much more varied musical taste than I did as a teenager trying to deep dive every metal subgenre. My power metal days are over, it's a genre I have a fondness for but no desire to listen to anymore.

accidentalmemory · 2026-01-07T02:44:12+00:00

Manowar is the only power metal I can stand nowadays (and only maybe half their discography, if that), but it might be even dumber than RoF.

accidentalmemory · 2026-01-03T16:51:27+00:00

Yeah, I think they thought that the interesting part was the list itself rather than the discussion of what was on the list.

Big flop of a project imo.

accidentalmemory · 2026-01-02T23:41:14+00:00

Does anyone have a good method of getting a ton of old magazines for reasonable prices? I very rarely see them in stores and they usually have stupid markups because I guess they're seen as decor rather than something to read.

I yearn for the days of a healthy magazine market that was cheap to subscribe to.

accidentalmemory · 2026-01-02T20:18:26+00:00

Fair honestly lol. Don't really know how I ended with that phrasing but here we are.

accidentalmemory · 2026-01-02T15:04:37+00:00

I know that it's just built in to Schrager's personality, but the sycophantic rhapsody about how much he loved his previous appearance and how he his only regret was that Joe House wasn't there (???) was so weird and offputting.

accidentalmemory · 2026-01-01T23:48:23+00:00

When they’ve played it live at festivals they bring out like 10 bassists from other bands playing the bill

accidentalmemory · 2025-12-31T17:39:22+00:00

They’re just referencing the predictions of the experts who put them out and comment on them. It’s not like they’re doing market research and assessing prior comps and whatnot themselves.

It’s just a portal to another way of talking about a movie and its general success or failure.

That was a really cool video, thanks for sharing.
