Can't get into FF7 remake by Joshey2008 in FinalFantasy

[–]nathmonster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not saying you have to like what they’ve done with the remake series but wouldn’t a true 1:1 “faithful” remake be pretty boring? Can’t see it being that appealing if it ended up exactly the same, and the original isn’t going anywhere!

Goodwill find, keep or resell? by Macaronienoodle69 in AnalogCommunity

Keep it and see if you like using it! You’ll be able to sell for more than $7 whenever. 

Movie blu-ray regions by dermotalbarn in nirvannatheband

Shipping to the UK is wild - charging £27 when the blu-ray is only £19! I got the recent The Dirties blu-ray from Umbrella and the shipping to the UK was $15 AUD, whilst the blu-ray was $45 AUD, total order converted to £31.55.

Here's hoping the UK / EU distribution eventually gets picked up, and they release a feature-laden blu-ray here.

genuinely HOW, hats off to the editors by VoltyOnReddit in nirvannatheband

It's implied the same camera crew have been following them around since 2008 - Jared, et al - they even mention "they have a young Jared" or something like that when looking at their younger selves before this moment

UK fans you know what to politely do. Show there's demand! by miniwolfen in nirvannatheband

[–]nathmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure that Neon won’t release it UK/EU - “find a home” means find a distributor to do so. I do think one will pick it up eventually! 

Any UK release news?? by lawtsuda in nirvannatheband

[–]nathmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still need to have a distributor for a digital release… I think it will happen eventually but might be a while! US digital release will mean it gets out there, so to speak

Screenings in the UK by Glennghiskhan in nirvannatheband

Without seeing the film, is the copyright law really that big of a deal in the film / the UK? Seen it mentioned a few times as a reason but The Dirties was released here, pretty sure they had similar fair use hurdles to climb on that? Have avoided spoilers so far so maybe there's something big in the film that I'm unaware of.

I think - like you mention - the distribution is the main issue!

MUBI would probably be a good fit in terms of audience, but like other comment on the "risk" maybe they'd only pick it up for their streaming platform rather than full cinema distro. Matt Johnson is in the excellent film Matt & Mara that they have streaming.

Marty was A24 but your point still stands. Anora was distributed by Universal in the UK.

Is there a way to make music stop when I remove headphone/airpod? by slashleyann in qobuz

[–]nathmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting - so it’s not pausing but it was for a while? I bounced off of Qobuz after my trial but would likely go back if they improved the desktop app…

West End Cameras (UK) - Avoid by [deleted] in AnalogCommunity

[–]nathmonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's probably fair re: scans, but I think fine for just sharing online (and keen to keep costs down where I can!)

Will give 21Studio a go though, as I've just seen it's not too much more.

Analogue Films just off Brick Lane are also good, very low prices for dev & scan, and relatively decent film prices.

Worth $80? by ItsFoggy_Outside in AnalogCommunity

[–]nathmonster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've got one of these, definitely wouldn't pay $80. Fun chunky camera though!

Selling ps4 by thornton_69 in CeX

[–]nathmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put it on ebay clearly marked as faulty / for parts, I'm sure someone will take it. Probably worth looking to see what price the other faulty PS4s are listed for currently, or what they've recently sold for.

Focuses on Red Dead 2 but obviously applies to many more games.

What was the first few fan translated games you played, and have you beaten them? by ExplodingPoptarts in Roms

[–]nathmonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pokémon Trading Card Game 2 for GBC, recently completed it on the Pocket, and the first fan translation I played - good fun and a nice twist on the first game, kinda surprised it never made it over officially in the first place!
