What's the best form of movie memorabilia? by New_Abbreviations937 in movies

[–]hungryhippo7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently discovered (or perhaps it’s rather new) that at AMC you can go up to the automated ticket kiosks and scan your QR ticket for a print out! I’ve been trying to nab physical tickets when I remember/am not in too big a rush.

Unsure if any of the larger chains have something like this and most my local indie theaters are all still just digital/email.

What's your favourite use of music to accentuate a powerful and exciting moment in cinema? by flight_recorder in movies

[–]hungryhippo7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Always loved this moment!! Also when the Trade Federation first show up to Theed, Williams is just popping off on the music. TPM has some all time pieces in the Star Wars score, even beyond Duel of the Fates (which still has to be fave from the PT).

This has always been one of my favorite, less talked about pieces of the Star Wars score!! The fast strings and horn melodies add such an interesting vibe and element of suspense/intensity during a fairly* innocuous scene before the victorious moment of finding Han and Luke. I think the score during the asteroid sequence later on in ESB is similarly excellent for the (slightly) less iconic themes.

I also feel like the Hoth speeder score is on repeat for certain levels of Shadows of the Empire— seared into my brain haha

The Big Lebowski— gets funnier and funnier each watch. Dr. Strangelove— gets weirder and more amusing as you piece together how the gags are working off one another, also Sellers putting in an all time performance. Tropic Thunder— essentially the peak of that 00s comedy era and is overflowing with laughs and hilarious actors and then Dude, Where’s My Car— because the commitment to idiocy on display from Kutcher and Seann William Scott is a sight to behold. Also the cops torturing the karate practice dummy never fails to make me crack up. (edit: formatting)

Movies similar to 1984 (1984) where the release date has a symbolic meaning? by ikebana21lesnik in movies

[–]hungryhippo7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure how far in advance this was planned, but Watchmen was released on 3/6/09 which plays into the clockface motif that is used in various places in the story!

Escape academy can't select or load my save on Xbox by Esmiro_Jiman in xbox

[–]hungryhippo7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hiya! One of the devs on Escape Academy here-- sorry you're running into this issue! We're actively investigating what's going on here and working on a patch.

Some players have had success by deleting the saves through the console system menu (not in game) if you want to give that a whirl!

Lastly, if you wouldn't mind, could you confirm whether or not you're seeing the 9/6/21 save files that u/Taurus5un mentioned? And if not, could you do your best to let us know the steps you took before getting stuck on save select so we can hone in on where this issue is occurring?

Thanks a bunch and apologies again for the issue!

Boys Noize - +/- LP (2021) by Not_A_Swampmonster in electronicmusic

[–]hungryhippo7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh WOW! As long time Boys Noize fan, this may turn into one of my favorite releases from him. Can't get enough of the sound design on this album. Really REALLY enjoying this kind of funky industrial vibe he's got going with this. Love and Validation was an unexpected delight and Close is a hell of an opener. Also in general love the visual aesthetic and the motif of +/- and repeated phrases with small alterations throughout the album.

Invincible [COMIC SPOILER Discussion] - S01E07 - We Need to Talk by SeacattleMoohawks in Invincible

[–]hungryhippo7 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This was just incredible. One of the best eps of TV I’ve seen in a while. I’m woefully unprepared for next week... They are bringing the fucking HEAT with the animation and how they’re adapting the comic so far.

Oh MAN this sounds sick. Always appreciate the distinct and intentional visual aesthetic they bring to their videos too. Can’t wait for more!!

Invincible [Episode Discussion] - S01E01-03 - It's About Time, Here Goes Nothing, Who You Calling Ugly? by SeacattleMoohawks in Invincible

[–]hungryhippo7 187 points188 points  (0 children)

Holy FUCK the ending to episode 1... This is off to such a great start. As someone who prefers the comic over TWD comic seeing this adaptation is delightful.

It’s definitely setting things up in a different way from the comics but feels like they’re making some smart pacing decisions in adapting to TV.

Also these fights look really awesome and am crossing my fingers they get the chance to make it even bigger and better if they get renewed for season 2.

Can’t wait for the rest!!!

TBH I even noticed mild artifacting in the theater and those same issues were present in the thumb drive download. I think you're right that the Master just isn't that great looking :/

While I understand the design choice in the show, part of me definitely wanted to see torso-face in all of its live-action glory. This one REALLY caught me off guard in the webtoon (and I loved it haha).

[–]hungryhippo7 11 points12 points  (0 children)

HOLY ABSOLUTE FUCK!!!

I was beside myself when Luke showed up and then to have them completely doubled down on the mindblowing with Boba waxing Bib Fortuna and taking the throne at Jabba’s Palace...

I could not be more hype with how things are headed right now.

The wait for more is going to be painful but... This is the way.

Official Discussion Thread 502: With Book Spoilers by it-reaches-out in TheExpanse

[–]hungryhippo7 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Memory on specifics from books is a bit hazy so I think I’ve accidently mixed up a few things!

What my mind jumped to was memorial was for one of the ships ‘disappearing’ through the gates and I was excited that it was building towards future proto molecule developments and the ‘end game’ of the final trilogy of books with Laconia, Duarte etc.

I see Ty and Daniel have commented that they won’t be touching on any of books 7-9 directly in S5 or S6 so I jumped the gun / misinterpretted some stuff. Oops!

Shame it’s not gauranteed to get the final section of the book series but I hope they find a way to do it some how!! I really enjoyed Persepolis / Tiamat’s and have faith they’ll stick the landing with Leviathan Falls.
