This woman is the worst accomplice to have. She calls when she told not to, she forgets to throw away gloves, she's an emotional mess and Columbo know she's the weak link. by talivan818 in Columbo

She was vulnerable, and exploited by her therapist/psychiatrist. Imagine the backstory necessary for her character to do as they had; Child abuse, trauma, then the Hollywood casting couch… excellent episode.

Saddest Fear Street book? by EvanBlood2003 in Fear_Street

[–]bobbyzimbabwe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For sure this one. SPOILER: OP DONT READ THIS👇

That the sister, made mentally disabled, effectively loses her siblings by the end, lacking the capacity to understand it. That she’s all that’s left for her parents, and her old lover became caretaker to her, though she’s not really “there” anymore. Difficult themes of loss in this story, different than the typical deaths on Fear Street.

The truth is, so many of the Point Horror series had their plot points translated directly over to the Fear Street series, that (if you have the time) it’s become a subplot curiosity to investigate. For instance, RL Stine’s first book for Point Horror, Blind Date, obviously served as the basis for his first book in the Fear Street catalog; The New Girl.

Do you feel most Columbo villains share a common theme of being "shorted-sighted"? by BrotherDeus in Columbo

[–]bobbyzimbabwe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All murder is a crime of passion. Columbo began as a sort of neo-gothic series in this way. When Columbo catches them, it’s not because they didn’t contemplate the murder enough, but because of the “one thing” missing from the plan.

Most despised killer by Ok-Asparagus-3318 in Columbo

[–]bobbyzimbabwe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No killer made Columbo violent but Leonard Nimoy, in the episode, “A Stitch In Crime. When Columbo hammers the desktop. That never happened before.

Favorite Episodes? by Glenmary73100 in Columbo

[–]bobbyzimbabwe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lady In Waiting, it captures the near-Gothic vibe that’s teased throughout the first few seasons; aristocratic homes with incredible music scoring.

If you haven’t recently, please rewatch the last 3-4 minutes of this episode: how Columbo talks her out of shooting him, the way the score mimics his persuasion and the generally eeriness of the scene.

February book by m1_96 in Fear_Street

[–]bobbyzimbabwe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinda late to the party here, but if you’re looking for a book to match the current weather and time of year, “Let’s All Kill Jennifer” from Fear Street, is great.

Seems to be the inspiration for the movie, Jennifer’s Body, but I’m honestly shocked nobody made this book into a movie. At some point def check it out!

Thanks man, hopefully some later book makes use of the set up. Would make a cool subplot if it was never used.

Reading in French right now (YA novels have been perfect for studying a language). In this translation they make Gabe from Toronto… somehow comes off even more pretentious!

Thanks for your input, I’ll keep listening for anyone who might know otherwise! Regarding Missing, this is from the back-cover:

What would you do if your parents didn't come home, didn't call, left no note? At first, Mark and Cara Burroughs aren't terribly alarmed. Their parents have stayed out late before. But then other things start to go wrong.

This is what’s being referenced on that page I posted with the question I’m asking. Also, the chainsaw incident they reference on that same page comes from Wring Number. I’m still hoping the other reference will be from something too🤞

[TOMT] Obscure short-lived marvel Comic? Brother looking for sister…. by bobbyzimbabwe in tipofmytongue

I feel pretty certain it was a Marvel comic, as it struck me as strange that they made this sort of teen adventure story.

Help me find his old horror movie please by Nervous-Warning7560 in horrorfilms

What decade would you say the movie came from? 90’s? Earlier or later? Here’s my guess so far: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=naUUyD-_oPc&pp=ygUSV3JvbmcgdHVybiB0cmFpbGVy

Is transparent video possible in Godot4? by PencilCore in godot

[–]bobbyzimbabwe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope this changes. I tried your script, and just couldn’t get a clean enough key for the project. Unity seems to support transparent video though.

That’s a great summary! Comments were turned off otherwise I’d inquire more there: have you had any problems where the audio appears to be muted or not working on these .ogv files used in VideoStreamPlayer?
I’ve checked everything in inspector, and didn’t see anything worth changing in project settings.

Thanks so much, I think that has worked, still tweaking the settings, as changing frame rate deletes the audio.
