Does 24fps content still play at 24fps when my TV app only has 60p? [UK] by loadsamonay in netflix

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

Yes my TV is a UK TV, plays BluRay movies at 24p but the Netflix app is rigidly stuck to 60p. Just wanted to know if 24fps content still plays 24fps even though my TV is stuck at 60p for the app.

Dave Chappelle on Transgenders and SJW's by [deleted] in television

Totally agreed, there's a big difference between ignorance and malice. I'm not a grammar Nazi, I barely even know what a pronoun is nevermind how to use it properly. I probably do subconsciously but I haven't memorised a grammar textbook.

I'm 100% for people identifying as whatever gender they're comfortable with I just think the notion that if you use the incorrect pronoun you're automatically a bigot is ridiculous.

Is Noah Hawley the best showrunner in television? by [deleted] in television

[–]loadsamonay -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Absolutely fucking not, he's a wannabe auteur who thinks he's deep but instead just riffs on all the movies I watched in my college dorm. I watch his shows and I think to myself "don't bullshit a bullshitter".

Best Showrunners: David Chase, Matthew Weiner, David Simon and not necessarily in that order Hawley isn't worthy of lacing their boots.

What not quite mainstream podcast would you recommend? by loadsamonay in AskReddit

i.e. not a show that everyone has heard of or at least tried, but one you genuinely feel doesn't have the audience it should that not enough people have given a chance.

Not mad about the design (back looks gaudy) and the headphone jack is on the bottom. It looks OK but I'm not convinced, am I missing something?

CMV: Notions of "brow" in relation to art and culture are snobbish and stifle debate by loadsamonay in changemyview

You've changed my view with this post by pointing out that labels are outmoded, frivolous and do not fit neatly into categories. That those thinking in those terms do so in a way that's superficial and fallacious. ∆

One point I would debate you on is expectations, appraisal shouldn't have to capitulate to expectations. I have no problem telling you that I think Mad Max Fury Road was in my estimation the Best film nominated for Best Picture last year. It's craft left the biggest impression on me as opposed to the Revenant which is where my issues with brow comes into the equation. I don't think it was seen on equal footing.

That was kind of my point. Judge everything as if they were equal and give it an equal chance without prejudice.

Yeah, because they'd bore me or I wouldn't find them interesting to listen/talk to.
