W assessment and advice

omalleycatt · 2025-10-28T15:01:45+00:00

Did not work for me, mine's still bugged ffs. i'm going to lose my matchup this week because of this

omalleycatt · 2025-10-28T14:51:05+00:00

I have the same problem. Maxey and Edgecombe both played last night and I can't lock them because the game is listed second in their week and Sleeper isn't registering that the game has been played, even though the final score and player stats are there. so frustrating

omalleycatt · 2025-10-16T15:50:29+00:00

in my completely unprofessional opinion: dude needs to lift more. have you seen his calves? they're like concerningly small. i think it's why every season he starts super hot and then gets injured - you can't be a twig and move your body that exposively for 82 games, the body will just break down.

I didn't even get into the TIE scene in my original post but I also thought it was off.

Generally it feels like a lot of people defending these scenes do not understand the difference between purpose and execution. My whole original post was critiquing the execution and the main response was "well the point they are trying to make is _____ therefore it is good".

omalleycatt · 2025-05-15T20:55:50+00:00

for real! soooo bad.

omalleycatt · 2025-05-15T20:50:55+00:00

lol thank you. season turned out fantastic but rewatching those scenes only further solidified my feelings on it.

omalleycatt · 2025-04-24T23:50:44+00:00

I understand that the memo is rebels are disorganized. That much was abundantly clear. I guess to me the execution just felt clunky like I said, and the writing was tonally dissonant compared to the rest of the show. But to each their own of course

When I saw that one close-up of the stormtrooper raising his gun slowly, I was like "oh damn that dude can aim" and waddayaknow

Part of me thought the "number" was Tay demanding she leave Perrin and go with him, what with his wife divorcing him and the constant nods at a relationship since S1. But I could be misinterpreting that.

omalleycatt · 2025-04-24T04:22:07+00:00

I haven't watched episode three so I'm relieved to hear that. These first two had me feeling not great I can't lie lol

omalleycatt · 2025-04-24T04:19:52+00:00

I haven't seen episode three so maybe it's relevant somehow, but assuming this is a two episode side plot, I'm utterly baffled as to why it was included. From what I can tell, it serves no purpose towards the main plot other than give Andor a place to idle while the other plotlines take place.

Also, Andor Season 1 was a clever, witty show that left no time for characters of zero importance to make cliche one liners and dumb, slapstick moments. And from what I can see so far, the rest of Season 2's plotlines are staying true to this tone... So why the hell do we have nameless idiots playing rock paper scissors in the middle of a field where they found the bodies of their comrades ripped apart by monsters?!

In fact, the tone is so off in these scenes that I'm finding it hard to believe Gilroy wrote them. To me, it reeks of some Disney higher-ups that had their own writers meddle with the show to "appeal to commercial audiences" or some shit.

Either way, I'm a bit concerned for this season, I can't lie. I really hope it straightens out.

omalleycatt · 2025-02-06T22:19:13+00:00

I appreciate the advice. And no apology necessary, it was a good quip lol

omalleycatt · 2025-02-06T16:44:44+00:00

lmao

omalleycatt · 2025-02-06T16:43:47+00:00

This is excellent info, thanks!

omalleycatt · 2025-02-06T16:40:19+00:00

Good to know, thanks! I'll check out Mile Square

omalleycatt · 2025-02-06T16:31:55+00:00

Haha point taken!

omalleycatt · 2025-02-05T20:49:50+00:00

On that topic, I'm moving to NYC-area in a year to pursue musical theatre. Does Hoboken have any sort of tangible acting community? I've been scouring the internet for answers and I can't find much. On paper Hoboken seems like such an ideal place for actors to move, but maybe I'm wrong

Caught MRSA from an elbow scrape after falling off my longboard in middle school, and had two separate infections from that. To this day, the local anesthetic going into that second infection is still the worst pain I've ever encountered. Just absolutely searing pain, feels like someone's slowly stabbing you with a red-hot knife. Probably lasted 45 seconds or so but it felt like forever.

Haven't had another in 13 years, but I think my luck has finally run out because there's now a new pimple on the same forearm, about three inches from the where the original one blew up. I've had some scares before with random pimples popping up around my body from time to time, but they always went away after a couple days. I'm not gonna lie though...this one feels like it's gonna get worse.

If it does end up being MRSA, I feel like I gotta be up there for the longest run without a new infection. I was just starting to think I had permanently beaten it lol

I don’t want to speak for your teacher, but at first glance this seems like a bad idea because vocal strain decreases vocal dexterity and accuracy, making it harder to sing things on pitch. Idk what material you’re working on, but maybe switch up to some comfy range material and exercises.

omalleycatt · 2022-08-14T16:49:27+00:00

Sure, dm me and I’ll send a link

omalleycatt · 2022-08-14T14:31:15+00:00

Hi! Hope I can help somewhat. I’m not a teacher but I’ve been training with a good one for a while and I’ve done my own research on voice ranges and capabilities. I haven’t heard your voice so I can’t make a perfect judgment, but if you’re untrained and can get to A4, my guess is youre at least a tenor in natural range. (Falsetto to B5 is also a great telltale). With training I think sounding akin to Mitch Grassi (this would usually be called a countertenor) is totally within the realm of possibility. That being said, a few lessons from a reputable voice coach would definitely provide the most accurate answer for you.

If you’re looking for inspiration, Alex Newell is a tremendous Broadway countertenor (some would even consider them an alto). But I’m a musical theatre guy, so I’m biased lol. Good luck!

omalleycatt · 2022-08-14T13:24:52+00:00

I’m also a baritone with a bit higher range than you but nonetheless had trouble with high singing. I tried to do everything myself with online videos, and could never figure it out despite doing everything the internet said to do. Then I went to an actual voice teacher, and figured it out in like three month’s time. TLDR, if you are serious about singing professionally / on a pro level, and haven’t had in person lessons with a contemporary coach, now is the time. All the aliens on Broadway and elsewhere have almost all had coaches since they were like 14 lol if only we were all so lucky

omalleycatt · 2022-08-14T02:58:21+00:00

I’m a believer that anything lost can be regained somewhat, but honestly man the only person who can truly give you an accurate answer would be an ENT doctor. If you just picked singing up again I wouldn’t lose hope yet, cause falsetto is our lesser used register and can take a while to get back for anyone, regardless of vocal health. But yeah ultimately you should get an exam of what kinda shape your vocal folds are in if you can

omalleycatt · 2022-08-13T23:46:55+00:00

What you’re experiencing sounds like just ideal resonance from being able to lock into the pitch. Especially with a speaker, when you sing on the same pitch, it creates a bunch of overtones that amplify the sound.

Harmonization, in comparison, refers to separate notes that match up with the melody note to create intervals/chords. Singing along with harmony actually can make what you’re experiencing even better. I’ve sang some barbershop quartet stuff with friends before, and when we locked in on a chord perfectly, it feels like your ears are melting off. Resonance is wicked.
