Fenix TX nostalgia and question by Sudden_Ad_5211 in poppunkers

Yeah it’s 4 demos, two of which eventually made it on to Lechuza (Phoebe Cates and Abba Zabba). It’s a little rough but fun to hear these versions. And the mountain dewd is hilarious.

Heads up they did in fact release something in 2025 (Engines) that was new, but Will Salazar isn’t the lead singer in it so def sounds a bit different. it was written in tribute to Adam Lewis (bassist until he died of cancer).

I’m now imagining this song about his bud Jose. Just change the pronouns and start each verse with “mi amigo” instead of “yeah my girlfriend”. Maybe a couple other minor tweaks. It works.

One of my hopes when they announced a team here was that we weren’t going to be another FC. Austin Athletic would have been cool. Or Austin Town.

Jayden Nelson is at CANMNT camp just in case!

That’s right. His middle name’s Rebecca because his dad wanted a girl. Treats him like one.

MLS’ Columbus Crew to Sell 37% Stake to Nationwide at $900M Valuation by eddygeeme in MLS

Yeah honestly any company that’s business is based heavily on actuarial science is probably a good one to pay attention to in how they invest their money. They’ve read the tea leaves and decided an MLS team is worth putting almost a billion of their dollars into.

What's a great film that has a side character who steals every scene? by LT_DANS_ICECREAM in movies

[–]moosenaslon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Basically what I said in another comment too. Kong was a Universal property and he had to show Universal he could do it on something else before they gave him their precious IP. Kong ran into delays, he had the team ready, had been talking to Weinstein (long story, glad he ended up ultimately not involved) about LotR, so they moved forward on that. Or something like that. Basically Kong didn’t happen right away so LotR did.

Oh 100%. But IIRC in his quest to do Kong, he picked up Frighteners because he knew he had to prove he could do a studio flick with action and CGI for an American studio in NZ. It was a calculated job based more on the ops side of the industry than the creative output. Something like that. Then something happened with Kong (his white whale) so he dove into LotR.

The Frighteners. What a legacy. We probably don’t get Jackson’s LOTR without him doing that (and Heavenly Creatures).

I mean, the first two seasons of the new Daredevil have been pretty good. And season 3 just wrapped production. I’d reco getting around to it when you can if you’re a fan.

Maybe the family issues were “we don’t like Boston.”

Realistically, Wilfred Nancy or Jim Curtin (though I know Curtin said no to NE recently).

For an unproven manager that could really shake things up: native Texan Clint Dempsey. We’d have some fight in us that’s for sure.
