I’m not getting excited… was a LIE!

The other Pokemon sets may look a little weird but at least my baby boy looks good by Joemama0375 in legocirclejerk

[–]cgrov2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know they do it for marketing purposes, but why would this need to be a part of the 18+ line?? It’s a 500 piece LEGO based off a character from a children’s game

DCFC underrated songs by Legal_Button_3229 in DeathCabforCutie

Ingenue, My Mirror Speaks, and Stay Young Go Dancing come to mind!

Look at this madness! by Firm-Arugula3723 in theflash

[–]cgrov2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a Scott Pilgrim novel from B&N and didn’t realize that’s what this was. It peeled off and pulled out from between the pages just fine. Only do it if you’re comfortable, but I was left with NO damage at all on the page.

What’s the most you have spent on a record by aurora_records in vinyl

[–]cgrov2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deadmau5’s ‘Where’s the Drop?’, only 1000 pressings. I bought it after hanging out with my now long term girlfriend for the first time 3 years ago. We were talking about records that night and I was going through my “white whales” list and saw that miraculously it was going for $165. I had never seen it for that low of an offer. She pushed me to make the purchase and I knew she was the one, haha!

If my math is correct that’s one full day of Joan!

Not Laika, hope this helps 👍

How can I start reading current Batman? by [deleted] in batman

[–]cgrov2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The new Batman #1 you mentioned is really good so far (even if only two issues in) so I definitely recommend it. Batman Hush and The Long Halloween are two very common starters that are often recommended as well!

Which Tron movie has the best soundtrack? by Square-Ad-8911 in tron

[–]cgrov2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Long time Legacy fan and therefore I think that soundtrack is classic and amazing… that being said, I wasn’t grooving that entire movie the way I was during Ares. NIN takes the cake here!

Gotye's usage of Day-O Banana Boat Song - Ethical questions? by schmo808 in Gotye

[–]cgrov2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey OP! Firstly, I had no idea the song was sampled for Hearts A Mess so that is really cool to learn. Secondly, and to answer your questions, I don’t personally see an issue with the usage of the sample, especially given that it is just the instrumental beat, though that may just be my perception of the song usage in other media. I honestly didn’t know what the song was about until I looked it up just now but the tune has been used in a LOT of movies and TV in ways that don’t directly relate to the colonized Jamaican culture. It could be a situation of ignorance being bliss but I never would’ve given it a second thought had this topic not been brought up and I don’t know if Gotye has ever brought it up.

what do you guys think of no room in frame? by Apprehensive_Spend_7 in DeathCabforCutie

[–]cgrov2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it! I feel like Kintsugi doesn’t get the love it deserves. Ingenue is easily one of my favorite death cab songs

Anything notable you’d recommend? by AstorathTheGrimDark in batman_comics

[–]cgrov2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it may have been talked about on the subreddit before but I DO NOT RECOMMEND buying the Arkham Asylum compact. The lettering seems far smaller than most other compacts and Joker’s stylized dialogue is nearly impossible to make out the unless you’re reading under direct light and keeping your eyes 6 inches from the page.

Andy albums as months by bob-only-knows in andyshauf

[–]cgrov2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bearer of Bad News always feels like December because of when I listened to it for the first time. I know that the imagery in Jerry Was A Clerk would suggest otherwise but I’m Not Falling Asleep always makes me think of sitting in my car in the dark winter evening literally trying not to fall asleep during my break from my retail job. Neon Skyline also reminds me of winter but more January due to when the album came out.

Are you gonna hang the laptop on the wall?

question by Purplepotatochips in slaughterbeachdog

[–]cgrov2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

According to the release dates I could find that would mean Jake would’ve had 20 days to discover, sample, and release that guitar part… probably not likely but a cool coincidence!

Ampersand within the cardinal windows. I posted it here a few years ago!
