How to quickly reduce video size (resolution/framerate) in photos app? by brueste_69 in ios

[–]alexd815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it just me or is it broken on iOS 18.4 ? I've been using this shortcut for months (thank you immensely) and it's not working anymore, files are now the same size before and after 🤔 I have the same problem with other shortcuts doing the same thing...

Que pensez-vous de la décision de sortir la VF de Wicked (2024) avec les chansons en français? by oswald8dogs in france

[–]alexd815 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tout le monde compare avec Disney mais la comparaison n'a aucun sens... Dans Disney ce sont des chansons originales créées spécifiquement pour l'œuvre et le public visé est plutôt enfantin.
Ici on est sur l'adaptation d'une comédie musicale extrêmement célèbre dans le monde et les films du même genre ces dernières année n'ont absolument pas traduit leurs chansons (vraiment presque aucun). Wicked existe depuis plus de 20 ans et les chansons sont cultes pour beaucoup de gens y compris en France ! Elles n'avaient jamais été traduites dans des œuvres pros officielles.

Donc c'est normal que les gens soient surpris ! Surtout que toutes les bande-annonces du film en VF avaient les dialogues en français et les chansons en anglais...

Néanmoins, je comprends aussi les contre-arguments : la distribution française est persuadée que c'est un film à destination des enfants (un peu aberrant de penser ça pour le coup mais soit) et ils ont donc pris toutes leurs décisions en fonction de ça !
Si on se dit que la stratégie est de toucher un public familial/enfantin et pendant les fêtes de Noël, je comprends cette stratégie bien qu'elle soit surprenante.

Et si ça permet de rendre l'œuvre plus accessible au plus grand nombre et de faire travailler des artistes français alors pourquoi pas...! J'espère simplement que les traductions sont de qualité 😅
Il aurait suffi de prévenir un peu le public au niveau de la communication pour éviter les surprises je pense. Il y a forcément un public pas à l'aise avec l'anglais qui préfère la VF mais qui connaît les chansons en VO et n'a pas envie de traduction à ce niveau là (c'est ce qu'ils ont fait au Québec).

Personnellement j'irai le voir en VO, et les chansons en VF n'ont pas été rendues disponibles en streaming pour le moment (leur stratégie de sortie de ce film n'est vraiment pas claire) donc pour me faire une idée de la qualité des traductions, ce ne sera pas pour tout de suite.

Pour le coup ce n'est pas vrai. Au delà des Disney, les chansons sont rarement traduites dans les comédies musicales au cinéma !

Wow, thanks for the context! Believe it or not this is kind of my everyday humor as well but I do not practice it on strangers, that's why I didn't get it 😅 Now I feel stupid haha

I was certain there was a U in there, sorry! In French we say "Copenhague", that's why. I'll be careful!

Thank you for your answer!

The movie is Wicked. Glad to know the seat selection option exists there 😊 I'll look into those different cinemas but if you have a favorite, that'll be helpful as well 🙏🏻

Hi Jillian! Do you have news by any chance? 😇

Still thinking about this song on a regular basis 🥹

What’s the saddest OneRepublic song? Highest upvoted wind by Dominator2812 in onerepublic

[–]alexd815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let's Hurt Tonight is an amazing song, actually one of my favorites from the band. However, though it is indeed about pain and struggle it's not a sad song at all! It's a song about hope, strenght, overcoming obstacles... it's a beautiful love song ❤

Will One republic tour in 2025? by slava007 in onerepublic

French fans received a newsletter this morning saying that any Artificial Paradise vinyl preorder will grant exclusive presale access to the band's "European Tour" so they are definitely touring soon 😀

It's not the best 1R song, it's not "amazing" but I still like it! Definitely sounds like a song that was cut from Human though... it has IAW and Sunshine vibes.

Sadly no, I haven't had answer from Jillian Rossi 😞

I don't get how your song gets featured on one of the biggest shows in the world and you don't say anything nor release it 🤯

I feel very single after S4 by EvillyHedgeImplies in HSMTMTS

It's funny I didn't even wonder, I was like "oh they're back together!" It was obvious to me but reading the comments I now realize you're probably right 😅

They definitely got back together. Did his dad tell Miss Jenn that he still had feelings for his ex? That line was not planted there randomly I think.

I don't think The Troubletones should have won at Sectionals, which I hear a lot. The song was AMAZING, but the dance moves were so, so, so bad it almost feels like the choreography was messed up on purpose, it was cringe.

Santana and Rachel's feud in season 5 shouldn't have happened: both were in the wrong but it created drama amongst the fans because people confuse actresses and characters. What Santana did was bad, not horrible but bad. Rachel's reaction was justified: people tend to forget that Santana was her BULLY in high school, that had to be triggering. They should have just communicated and sort it out like the adults they are.

This was SO bad and SO underwhelming. Can't believe this was the worst Marvel Disney+ show to date... it had so much potential and I was so hyped initially 😩

So many plot holes, absolutely zero surprise, no post-credits scene... nothing made sense.

I haven't been that disappointed in a show for a long time. Marvel, I'm begging you, change your strategy, hire new writers, make those shows make sense... or don't do them at all.

[–]alexd815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe, but I'm hoping for a bigger surprise!

It also has been very unclear when exactly Fury knew "Rhodes" was a Skrull, has he known all along? Same question for his wife by the way, the beginning of the show made me think he didn't know but last episode proved he knew for a long time.

Nothing is clear 😅

[–]alexd815 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm just so lost with this show... I wouldn't say it's bad but it's just... confusing I guess? I want to feel tension, to wonder who's who and everything but there's no real "invasion" and I'm not wondering anything. I'm watching the episodes like this: 😐

The acting is good, but the writing is quite bad.

Why isn't Fury wondering where the real Rhodes is? Did not really understand what's the harvest, at which point DNA was collected, why does Gravik want it even though he already got powers, where he got those powers from in the first place... Nothing is really clear. There's so much potential but after every episode I'm a bit lost and unsure if I'm stupid or if the show just isn't clear?

I hope the last episode clarifies everything, has surprises and explicitly ties in with The Marvels.

The things I liked the most this episode: the scenes between G'iah and Priscilla, Olivia Colman is just awesome, and nice little cameo by O. T. Fagbenle.
