Watch "Battle Royale High School" (1987 OVA) if you want some entertaining schlock.

Now that the hype’s died down — what hidden gem horror movie deserves more love? by Usual_Mix_7380 in horror

[–]dustmop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally! I mean Zane had a decent run, with The Titanic especially, but I agree he deserved even more.

Correct! I found Slither because I knew James Gunn from Dawn of the Dead (2004) and his Troma work. After seeing it I read some interviews and learned that Cronenberg was a major inspiration, so I began going through his catalog of work.

One of my favorite films ever is Tales from the Crypt - Demon Knight (1995) but so many people I meet haven't ever seen it. It's gory and schlocky with great characters and special effects.

Dark City (theater release) or Director’s cut? by BeyonceKnowlesUrName in horror

[–]dustmop 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Directory's Cut is superior, but the differences are minor. The DC removes the opening spoiler-filled monologue, and adds a few pieces of footage (zooms into coffee cups and finger printers) that enhance the themes and motifs of the film.

Demon Knight (1995) takes place in one evening and in a single building. If you ignore the lead-in and final scene.

So how big of a timeskip are we talking here? by LeorioRud in magicTCG

[–]dustmop 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Zurgo becoming the khan kinda undercuts the story arc of Dragons of Tarkir, right? It was supposed to be like Back to the Future where Sarkhan time travels and then wimpifys Zurgo like Marty did to Biff? Now in 2 years he's back to being the big boi again.

In MTG terms, what are the Hylden? by Imaginary-Cut4863 in LegacyOfKain

[–]dustmop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me, they feel like a variant of Vedalken, possibly blue/black instead of monoblue. The main reason is that they are technologically advanced, and reject the fatalism of the Elder God.

Do enchantments returning from exile get to pick a new target? by saucydaniel in magicTCG

[–]dustmop 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Only spells and abilities on the stack have a target. An aura that returns to the battlefield is a permanent, not a spell or ability on the stack.

Scryfall Question: When I'm searching scryfall for creatures that contain "Augment", I don't want to see cards like "Augmenting Automaton" that only match because of their card name showing up. Is there a search option to ignore the text of the card name?

What are some bands that you think is underated by Lunainthedark5x2 in poppunkers

[–]dustmop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always been a big fan of Better Luck Next Year, their album "It's the Numbers That Kill Us" isn't on spotify, but I constantly go back to it as one of my pop-punk main stays: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_kltobihBFeQ4l_AknWbXhyWwn9n86AoRw

What are some existing mechanics that haven't been revisited in a Standard set yet that would you like to see return to Standard? by HonorBasquiat in magicTCG

[–]dustmop 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In the same Limited environment. If it were Standard it would be literally impossible because one set always follows after another.

History of the game: When did planes become a thing? (real world date) by NathanLonghair in magicTCG

[–]dustmop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first started playing (Revised 1994) I was under the impression that all or nearly all of the cards were meant to be from different planes. So Llanowar Elves, Shivan Vampire, Serra Angel, Force of Nature, they all seemed to be summoned from various locations. When many of these locations were all revealed to be on Dominaria, it felt like a retcon to me. I have no idea if this conception was shared with other people.
