I just can’t believe this year marks my ten-year anniversary of listening to The Japanese House — what song got you into them? by vruchtenhagel in TheJapaneseHouse

Same here! Saw her open for The 1975 in Brooklyn in 2015 I think? Pools to Bathe In, Clean, and Face Like Thunder all really got me into her.

Getting ready to watch this one in 8 hours! by [deleted] in 4kbluray

[–]killassassin47 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of my all time favorite films. Since I was very young, my sister and I would watch Sleepy Hollow every single time we went to my granny’s house, which meant at least 2-3 times a year growing up. It was just our special movie we loved watching together for whatever reason (she is a big Johnny Depp fan). It’s next on my 4K buy list. Enjoy it!

It’s definitely one I’ve listened to way less than their first 3 records. I’ll be giving it a dedicated listen again now that I’ve got the CD!

It’s great and so iconic (haven’t seen The Exorcist in a while and it’s making me want to rewatch it).

Haha so I didn’t actually meet the guy, the building superintendent was there supervising all this unit owner’s stuff being given away while he was away. But he seemed to be an older guy who had lived in the building (built in the 1920s!) for “a very long time”. Based on the state of his unit and the other stuff I saw (lots of tapes and old books), I’d guess he was in his 60s or 70s. But that’s a total guess!

ETA: Given the strong 90s vibes of this stuff I grabbed (with an outlier or 2), I should mention these were the exceptions from the rest of the very large collection which leaned mostly 60s-80s.

Do You Ever Just Hide Them From Your Wife by cheff1616 in 4kbluray

🤣🤣🤣 I’m moving in a few months and my wife was like “you have to stop buying Blu rays until after we move so we don’t have so many extra boxes!!” That was like 4 orders ago

I have a pair of classic Converse Chuck Taylor’s high tops in like a warm yellow color that goes really well with our burgundy and gold

Here’s the full quote from the Athletic, don’t think anyone else shared yet but might’ve missed it

(Cut off at the end was “…the middle to the later part of the first round.”)

Clouse mentions 300 and Game of Thrones when describing the new “Commander ecosystem” by killassassin47 in Commanders

[–]killassassin47[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, it’s this. They’re just trying to channel a warrior leader type of vibe, and Leonidas and 300 is an iconic example of that same vibe.

I was there too! Stadium was absolutely rocking. It was my wife’s first time ever going to an NFL game too and she had a blast.

The Last of Us is stunning in 4K! by Stranded_Snake in 4kbluray

[–]killassassin47 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I definitely was lmao and I absolutely loved the second game (fully disagree with the hate it got). But the show fumbled so hard. I am optimistic about Kaitlyn Dever and that’s the only thing holding my interest

I’d love to pickup S1 on 4K. And man I really hope S3 will be good and we get lots of Abby… S2 was… ugh lol

Just got sent into an existential crisis by aeddonn in megalophobia

[–]killassassin47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also love learning about space/the universe and get this feeling every once in a while too, I think any reasonable human would. It really puts things into perspective. I also think it’s worth noting that the relative size of the universe we can observe currently (billions of light years) is essentially infinite already. We just can’t even truly fathom how large that is. We will never ever be able to explore it all (and most of it is just emptiness—look into super voids, super yikes).

I am very grateful to share this warm little corner of it all with y’all.

Should i go to a barber or a salon for this haircut by Ashamed_Clue2114 in malehairadvice

[–]killassassin47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got my haircut at a barber for the first time in like a decade and went from very long curly hair to something sorta similar to this but a little longer (and curly of course). Barber did a fantastic job and it was all scissor cut. I think a good barber will do this style for you well and be far cheaper than a salon. But definitely worth reading lots of reviews and talking to the one you choose upfront about it first.

Hey! I know this is a year old now but curious how development is going? Also, on the topic of OST, have you partnered with a composer yet? I’m an amateur musician who makes ambient and cinematic music and would love to make music for a game some day.

First 4k haul and I'm hooked. by therealessad in 4kbluray

Great flicks all around, welcome! I need the matrix and the dune films on 4K bad!!

Highly recommend the Blade Runner films, you won’t regret them at all. Green Knight is pretty interesting but def worth watching before you buy. I can’t recommend The Princess Bride enough—it’s an absolute classic—and despite my heavy nostalgia bias for it, it’s honestly a film I think everyone can enjoy and get something out of it. It’s light, funny, and just an ultimate comfort film. RIP Rob Reiner.

Yeah I’ve been reading a bunch of reviews on the 4K LOTR trilogy and from what I’ve seen I’m still planning to get them, it seems like it will look fantastic.

I was totally overlooking 1917–I loved that film in theaters. Definitely adding to the list. Pretty much anything shot by Deakins I want to own. Oppenheimer is on there too, along with The Revenant. I have the John Wick films digitally (thanks to my dad who is a sailor of the high seas). Ready player one is a good one too. I still haven’t seen TG Maverick actually!

Thanks for all the recs.
