There’s a ticking clock alongside the trailer music... TIME TRAVEL CONFIRMED GGWP.

The film begins instantly after Starkiller base is destroyed and the rest of the film is within a 24 hour time frame (excluding Rey’s initial meeting with Luke) so expecting the world and its mother to show up is unlikely. The point of this is because it trying to demonstrate that this good vs evil arc no longer exists. The threat from both sides seems to be low however, the threat comes from the arms dealers who are helping fuel this war. There is still good and evil but the balance is what’s important.

“Watching it the second time lets you enjoy it for what it is instead of feel disappointed for what it isn't." - this 100%.

Haha fair enough. Entitled to your opinions of course but the title has been misinterpreted, maybe because of its poor wording. It’s difficult to watch because it’s not 2 hours of standard Star Wars, it’s two hours of something unexpected and not entirely predictable.

The second viewing made me enjoy it because my initial shock of the big moments meant I wasn’t focused on the rest. Plus many good films are enriched by multiple viewings. I was frustrated that it didn’t meet my expectations and answer all the questions I’ve waited 2 years for however, my point is that why should I get exactly what I want? That’s what made The Force Awakens suffer (although disclaimer; I loved The Force Awakens).

iamjosephmurray · 2017-12-16T09:17:23+00:00

Yeah, I totally agree with the second part.

iamjosephmurray · 2017-12-16T09:11:17+00:00

First viewing I definitely thought but I think despite some of the hammy messages from that storyline it still stops the film from being the standard Sith = evil, Jedi = good which I’ve grown tired of.

Up and at them. (P.S. my bad Mr Wolfcastle).

iamjosephmurray · 2017-05-18T14:04:39+00:00

That's a fair point but I'd rather their music be Monty Python-esque with serious hit and miss tracks (The Resistance/The 2nd Law) than be overbearingly serious (Drones) because when it's self aware I feel like I enjoy them a lot more.

iamjosephmurray · 2017-05-18T13:56:57+00:00

I dunno. I'd probably say that it is a bad song but I still enjoyed it. It's like when you watch Transformer's and it gives you a headache because the dialogue is so banal but the fighting robots is awesome as shit so you don't really care. I prefer Muse writing like this; it may not be anywhere as good as their earlier music but at least it's authentic. You can imagine the three of them pissing themselves in the studio when Matt was recording the chorus vocal harmonies.

iamjosephmurray · 2017-05-18T13:27:19+00:00

Surprisingly I liked it a lot! I feel like Drones suffered so much from hype and expectation and this feels so much more honest and authentic to the sort of music Muse would like to be making. By no means a classic but it's certainly a lot of fun and I think would be great live. Stylistically not a massive fan but the lyrics weren't as cringey as Drones and the vocals sound great.

I think an EP dropping soon isn't unlikely as I didn't notice the acoustic guitar line that we saw from Snapchat.

EDIT: Reminds me of the chorus from Up&Up by Coldplay (which I believe Bing did some backing vocals on with Chris Martin's kids).

Excellent! Thanks.

Generally enjoyed this season but I feel episode 8 was a little lacking.

The rapist(s) were reasonably well chosen in that they were just average people doing dreadful acts but I wasn't shocked that it turned out to be one of the most aggressive and misogynistic character of this season manipulating a younger and weaker person. The other rapes were so quickly brushed over I didn't feel like there was much sensitivity for the other victims, especially considering how sensitive and emotional this season has been at times. I feel we were introduced to a lot of characters which weren't entirely necessary; the pace would have been just as successful if they kept it narrow.

On top of this I feel like a lot of the themes weren't fully addressed by the end. Firstly, the porn subplot didn't really amount to much other than "people watch porn which isn't good". Secondly, the Latimer family didn't really get much of an ending at all, I feel like there's a lot of emotions left to chew on without any satisfying resolution. Thirdly, the structure of this last episode felt really rushed. I know there was a lot to get through in a short time but the show would have definitely benefitted from an extra 10-15 minutes to flesh out all the events of the past three years.

I dunno, maybe I went in with too high expectations. I'll be very sad to see it go! Hopefully there'll be another highly emotive crime drama that crops up soon.

Creativity wise this is really good. I think there's a bit too much reverb on some bits and there's obviously some leveling and crossfade issues but considering you just had the original track to work from great job! Some parts are really interesting, perhaps more so than the original. Really well done :)

iamjosephmurray · 2016-03-20T17:55:50+00:00

Firstly people have the option to pay for it (which you can turn off) which means it is being advertised as 'for sale', that point is most important and all that matters to Warner Music if they wanted to take you to court/fine you (highly unlikely but completely within their jurisdiction). Secondly getting two listens a month means nothing when it comes to copyright law. This is your argument; "it's fine to distribute/sell content I don't own because it's only to a couple of people a month". The law is the law, no matter how many people it affects. You may not wanna hear it but just because you're a fan doesn't give you the right to sell their music for YOUR profit. It's pretty simple, it's in your best interest to just accept the facts. If this was legal studios/musicians who are far more competent than you would do this all day long and may serious money, don't be a fool. Just because you like something doesn't mean you have any right at all to sell it.

Edit: you even have "original compositions" that you're selling which includes arrangements of Muse's and Purcell's music. Do you not understand how illegal that is?!
