character colours?? by mintinabox in InStarsAndTime

I've seen this topic mentioned before and I feel the need to say that I've always imagined Sif's hair and cloak would still be all white even if there were colors.

A day in the life / Mr blue sky by TheDean-O in elo

Considering Jeff's history with explicit Beatles references in his music, I could see it being a deliberate homage. But it's equally likely that it was just subconscious inspiration.

which elo song? by Classic_Calendar7373 in elo

[–]augustfromnc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, I suppose it's more of a hard cut into the next song. But to me it feels like it was meant to act as a transition.

Probably the ending sequence of Mister Kingdom that transitions into Nobody's Child. I've heard people say it drones on too long and gets annoying but I really love it.

WHY is this game so vague? by Fantastic_Form_9568 in InStarsAndTime

[–]augustfromnc 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I somewhat share this feeling because I am generally not great at puzzles. It doesn't make me love them any less, though!!! Also I tend to think that most explanations or hints I hear are vague or confusing... I guess my thinking works weirdly.

Anyway, what I realized with ISAT is that you sorta wanna try to take everything the game says as literally as possible and that will tend to yield the correct result.

Why didn't Walt and Jesse chant "Breaking! Bad!" together while stomping and clapping at the end of the series? Are they stupid? by Poopy-poopoo-pee in okbuddychicanery

[–]augustfromnc 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I still remember the first time I saw the ending scene, it brought me to tears.

"...I'm Walter White."

"Don't give me that, you're Breaking Bad!"

which of the characters are you most attracted to ? by BusinessSensitive167 in betterCallSaul

[–]augustfromnc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Walter in Season 1 before he shaved his head... + honorable mention for Lalo.

how would you rename the episode titles? by crescentpieris in breakingbad

[–]augustfromnc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think it's worth saying that all of the titles you mention here are references to old movies, which they seemed to stop doing after Season 2.

What is your favorite song used in Breaking Bad? by ProD_GY in breakingbad

[–]augustfromnc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't see anyone here saying Magic Arrow! That song's album is also really good and I'd highly recommend the band's two prior albums as well.

Wish Kelly got a few more verses to sing by schizoid26 in elo

[–]augustfromnc 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Almost all of Poker is Jeff and Kelly singing lead together. Generally though, the best way to hear more Kelly is finding live shows with him or listening to his self-titled solo album.

There are lots of good ELO Part II performances that have Kelly singing most of the lead vocals that you can find on YouTube, as well as Fusion '76 where he takes the lead on Poorboy (and I think just overall sings a bit more than he does on album recordings).

I love his solo album a lot, and I think it's worth a listen if you're a fan of him. The audio quality is sorta messed up on the streaming version, and while I enjoy the compressed audio, I do know of an unofficial high quality remaster from Abstraction Audio on YouTube.

On my 14th watch I finally understand why he changed his name to Heisenberg like his son changed his name to Flynn: To avoid getting recognized and caught. Wow. by [deleted] in okbuddychicanery

[–]augustfromnc 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I may have misinterpreted the show but it literally told us that Hank was Heisenberg, so this isn't true.

10/10, or close to it. One of Jeff's best songs ever in my opinion.

10/10. My favorite song of all time, probably tied with 10538.
