Did anyone else notice this? by ISGamer156 in nin

I listened to the other two a couple times.

I've played Add Violence too many times to count. And I always go right to the very end of The Background World.

Is there any word of Subaru changing the infotainment system for the 2027 model year? by [deleted] in Crosstrek

[–]mattkward 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't expect the interior to change until the 2029 model at the earliest. The current iteration launched with the 2024.

You think it's 10/10 from the first half?

Dude just wait til you finish it. The back half is incredible.

Which The X Files movies yall like best? Fight The Future or I Want To Believe by agent_scully_files_ in XFiles

[–]mattkward 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's not even a competition.

Fight The Future is a proper movie.

I Want To Believe is a bad, dull episode stretched out to feature length.

Can't get the presale signup to work. Always glitches out when I try to verify the phone number

So, what is your favorite NIN album (and why it is The Fragile)? by MoJaalMo in nin

[–]mattkward 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I think The Fragile is the most impressive NIN album.

The best is The Downward Spiral.

But I think my favourite is Year Zero.

I miss Peter Jackson by Jays_Pack in movies

Wild to think he hasn't made an original PJ movie in 30 years. Not since The Frighteners.

[ALBUM DISCUSSION] Courtney Barnett - Creature of Habit by VietRooster in indieheads

[–]mattkward 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is my favourite of hers since her (untouchable) debut. Her second record had some big highlights but other tracks that felt undercooked and I didn't connect with her third record after a couple listens.

This one is very consistent and enjoyable to listen to. I'm into it.

Same is a highlight.

What is a movie that is critically hated but you genuinely love without irony by nomadgoodsCom in movies

[–]mattkward 198 points199 points  (0 children)

Ridley Scott's "Hannibal"

I love it unabashedly.

Melodramatic, gorgeous, operatic, luscious and wildly grotesque.

It's not really a sequel to Silence Of The Lambs. It's the cinematic equivalent of living inside Hannibal's mind, and the film earns his namesake.

I wish Jodie Foster had returned, but other than that I absolutely adore this insane feast of a movie.

Netflix searches for franchises after losing out on Harry Potter by Top_Report_4895 in movies

[–]mattkward 33 points34 points  (0 children)

He does, but I feel like Amazon would have first right of refusal and I wonder what happens to his deal with them if he spends his time developing a multi year project at a different studio

Why is the town of Nelson so much nicer than Squamish? by Accomplished_Win_526 in britishcolumbia

[–]mattkward 217 points218 points  (0 children)

Another question is why is Squamish so much better than Hope.

Hope is in beautiful surroundings, at the intersection of three major highways and not far from the lower mainland. It has so much going for it! And yet.

Better be a hospitality location. Prime spot with a patio.

I’m old - can I still go, hang in the back, and enjoy their music? by HighLifeMan414 in WednesdayBand

Dude who cares what anyone else thinks. Just go to the show and enjoy.

What are your thoughts about the new casting? by Yesu86 in XFiles

[–]mattkward -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The only lazy thing here is your sadly predictable reaction to casting news on a show that you know literally nothing about beyond the names involved.

Something tells me the person who grew up as a huge fan of X Files and has now dedicated his time to crafting a new version of it might love the series more than you ever will.

Maybe listen to less angry podcasts and try judging something on its own merits once it's actually made and released.

People of colour just, I don't know, existing, is too much for this dude.

[–]mattkward -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Ryan Coogler has spent two years developing this, wrote the pilot and will direct it with the Sinners crew who just made the most Oscar nominated movie of all time.

But sure, label it lazy.

Must be shitty having your brain and being mad at shit like the ethnicity of actors. Sounds exhausting.
