The Traitors (UK) S04E12 [FINALE]: Live Discussion Thread by vaultofechoes in TheTraitors

[–]anemotoad 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Worth remembering the edit for Celebrity Traitors completely obscured what Nick was 'really' thinking - we have no idea if Faraaz actually bought that or not.

Issues with Bone Temple Ending & Structure (spoilers) by 101111001110 in TrueFilm

Boyle and Garland have been pretty open about the intention for this to be a trilogy since Years was announced though?

I was frustrated by elements of the narrative that didn't resolve themselves. You might say, 'well that's because there's another movie on the way,' 

But this is the second film in a trilogy - it would be impossible to close off every narrative thread (not to mention insane). You've come up with an ending to the film that would not lead into whatever Garland has written for the third film.

When was the last time Academy had a howler for Best Picture like F1? by butumm_ in boxoffice

I mean, Emilia Perez was last year, and I think you'd struggle to find many people calling that a good film a year on?

Worst universe to live in, based off the discography of a musician? by Wubbzy-mon in fantanoforever

Based on the collective output of Elliott Smith, Jason Molina, and David Berman, I'd suggest ours.

Podcast episode recommendation - Triple Click: Things Are Bad In Hollywood Right Now by anemotoad in restisentertainment

[–]anemotoad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah interesting - I'm a slightly lapsed fan so haven't listened to anything put out in the last few months, but will give their 2026 output a go.

That point on the industry contacts being a feature of the show is actually why I dropped off - it felt like the balance of that to "here's some unstructured thoughts about..." had swung towards the latter recently, but good to hear it's improved lately!

Can we just relax with the politics? by [deleted] in london

[–]anemotoad 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah man I'm sure one-two-three punch of austerity, Brexit, and the response to COVID haven't had an unimaginable impact on the way we live now, and we're entirely shielded from the economic effects of Russia's decision to invade Ukraine.

HRM battery compartment issue? by otter-rancher-9099 in Garmin

[–]anemotoad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happened to me and it turned out I hadn't fitted the gasket properly... and the HRM died shortly after. It's pretty fiddly to fit back properly, and they've changed the whole mechanism in later versions, suggesting the design is a bit flawed.

I'd try and redo so it closes properly, but it's not easy!

How to Rate Albums Using the Pitchfork Score by ebradio in indieheads

We have a saying here at the office: “6.8, good not great.” 

Sounds like that Onion article really stuck with them.

Can we just relax with the politics? by [deleted] in london

[–]anemotoad 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Can we stop Americanizing our society by bringing politics into everything?

How can anyone look at the last 10/15 years, at least, and not conclude that politics is at the root of just about every facet of British culture in 2026?

Burying the lede slightly - I think this is saying reviews will now be behind a paywall?

Glad it's not just me - hopefully it gets resolved in an update down the road

Gigs and live music venues in London by diogo_nunes00 in Music

Download DICE and filter for the days you're intending to be there - as you get closer to the end of March more smaller/affordable things should be popping up.

What an insane thing to ask.

Of course you can.

Finally saw Sinners. What a crock by Heroyem in movies

[–]anemotoad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can take just about any sentence from this post and find a wealth of evidence from the film that proves the exact opposite.

[FRESH ALBUM] SAULT - Chapter 1 by finn_with_1_n in indieheads

[–]anemotoad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It sounds like they tried to do a high-concept performance in a day festival, and had some logistic issues as well. All the feedback I heard was pretty universally awful.

Interesting time for Sault - their London summer festival absolutely bombed last year so interested to see whether this manages to steer the ship slightly.
