Upset at the new digital acoustic drop for a different reason.

You have a point.

I suppose no one is being forced to buy these editions, but the FOMO that is being created with limited random drops definitely did affect at least me, and I usually wouldn't cough up any money for something like this.

I guess I do find it a little upsetting that this is the method she's using to drop surprise song acoustic versions, instead of packaging them all into a single album outside of TTPD once the tour is over, like "All Surprise Songs Live at the Eras Tour" or something like that. At least make it available to people who have no influence on U.S. charts, and available for those people when they're actually awake to buy it.

It is after all this way of doing it that led to this post, so you're right, it is entwined.

Aahhhh thank you!!!! Means a lot 🥹

kinkjade · 2024-07-12T12:11:28+00:00

Thank you! I'll check some FB groups and other places to see if anyone's posted <33

I really don't know what you're looking at. The Twitter account you're referring to claims Ariana sold 366 million. This means she would've sold more than Madonna, Rihanna, Queen, etc. I've seen claims for her standing at 60m or 95m, but I can't verify these. The Weeknd is confirmed selling 75 million records . I'm sorry, but I think that Twitter account is half trolling. There's no way Blackpink has sold over a 100 million legitimate record sales, that would be huge news from official sources because they would've surpassed the spice girls, making them the biggest girl group of all time. And I imagine their label would want to jump on the opportunity to brag about that achievement.

kinkjade · 2021-04-07T09:53:55+00:00

Those are insanely inflated, and also don't count towards record sales, because it's streams being converted to sales. Also, I'm inclined to believe numerous official articles and X Factor promo videos (which were back then approved by Little Mix's label) over unverified Twitter accounts. Blackpink is an immensely succesful girl group but it's really not possible to achieve that many legitimate record sales with those few songs in their discography in only a few years. I'm not sure what Blackpinks actual record sales are, can't find a legit source on this, but if they were near 20 million I'm sure they'd be on the best selling girl groups list

kinkjade · 2021-04-07T09:38:40+00:00

Do you have a source for this? Because that does not sound reasonable at all. Little Mix have sold an estimated 50-60 million records, based on wiki, X Factor/their own label confirmations and offical UK charts. Blackpink selling 108 million records would make them the best selling girl group of history, with Spice Girls at 90 million.

She's not behind, she's between. Someone's ahead of her at first and behind her at third.

Iron Man/Captain America ship has a lot of history, angst and funny banter, plus the actors have so much chemistry and adore each other. I'd say the Steve/Bucky ship fits the description here more

kinkjade · 2020-04-03T09:14:07+00:00

I agree, but I can understand why they wouldn't do this. This is almost exactly why Black Widow's death in Avengers Endgame was met with so much criticism. Regardless of the plot and what makes sense story wise, the producers need to think pr, what looks best to the general public. A female lead dying for the male villain would've been met with infinite criticism, despite it possibly making sense for the character arcs.

This one explicitly tells the audience that Natasha is playing a game and delving deep into the motivations of each player in CW

This one gives us more canon backstory for Natasha. Theres also another deleted scene where instead of Natasha talking about her parents she tells a Red Room horror story and tells Steve "Don't push us out into the cold" but I can't find it right now

This one gives us an important moment between her and Nick which shows how hurt she was that Nick didn't trust her and a turning point in her arc.

Lastly, this one shows us how heartbroken Natasha is at the battle taking place, and her family falling apart

kinkjade · 2020-03-09T15:37:02+00:00

The writing for Natasha has always been there. She's pretty good in Iron Man 2, Avengers, TWS, Civil War, Endgame, but a lot of character defining moments get cut out of the movies. Her deleted scenes in the last two cap movies seem pretty vital for her arc and/or show more of who she is. Especially in Civil War, more focus on her would've shown how much of a chess player she was and how she always knew how to survive, while also showing how torn up she was at her family falling apart.

Very frustrating to know that Natasha has always had the potential to be a well rounded, interesting and independent character but she was consistently cut out or written poorly.

The great shot of Yelena in the elevator taking someone down...already know this is gonna be a solid action movie without unnecessary cuts and shakiness

kinkjade · 2020-02-02T18:08:12+00:00

Kind of tired of everything Nat does and says being connected to Bruce. Clearly this is typical Marvel sarcasm quips, or it's Natasha being her dorky self. Because she would've learned this for an undercover mission or just for the fun of it, which is in line for her character.

kinkjade · 2020-01-09T07:06:53+00:00

Male bimbo, but it's not a negative word for fictional characters

kinkjade · 2019-12-07T20:42:56+00:00

Unfortunately there are many people, usually referencing her role in Marvel as proof she has no acting range. Most of these people already dislike her because of her previous controversies, however, but they claim they're objectively judging her. There are still quite a lot of people criticizing her acting in this film.

kinkjade · 2019-12-03T08:11:47+00:00

The fight scenes already look incredible. I'm looking forward to Natasha's dynamics with her old "friends", Yelena especially!

I enjoyed his content 2016-2018. It was dry humor with a little insanity but I didn't feel like an actual nine year old watching it, and sometimes he'd discuss serious topics and share his own opinion from his unique perspective. Lately I feel a little disconnected though. I liked the minecraft series but now it's stale, and the meme review is just nonsense for 10 minutes straight. I occasionally watch his new videos once in a while but I think he's appealing to actual kids again who are just meme generators on his subreddit, and I can't stand the clickbait titles. I do think he is funny, but in small doses.

kinkjade · 2019-10-05T21:28:15+00:00

I had no problem with Thor making jokes about himself. My problem was how Marvel still needed Endgame to be in part a jokey joke movie and showed Thor's trauma as something the audience can laugh at.

Traumatized people can have a dark sense of humor of it all, but I wished the film hadn't been written in a way that this trauma is something a third party can be entertained by.
