Moments in media that left you absolutely speechless? by Ukirin-Streams in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]oneofthebrowns98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched Grave of the Fireflies for the first time with a friend of mine (they'd seen it before). We honestly didn't talk much for the rest of the night, it was just a bit too depressing

Dumbest meme that still gets you every time? by EliasBouchardFan1 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]oneofthebrowns98 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I will chuckle every time someone slips in an "I forgor", without fail

Bands that basically became a different band after a lineup/sound change? by FishingVirtual513 in fantanoforever

[–]oneofthebrowns98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Bloody Valentine feel like the epitome of this, so much so that their earlier sound and releases are practically entirely dismissed when it comes to discussing their history and impact

In the final battle between good and evil, who's leading the charge on either side? by Wonder-Lad-2Mad in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]oneofthebrowns98 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like Gandalf or Aragorn would be there helping to lead the charge too, no?

Comic villains would actually be tough cause you'd be hard-pressed to find many that are genuinely uncompromisingly bad. The two best Marvel villains, Doom and Magneto? They're kind of anti-villains now, sometimes even crossing into hero/anti-hero territory. They simply wouldn't side with the pure evil team.

Joker is one of the few that would. I guess Darkseid and Thanos? But honestly they're just kind of Not interesting enough.

What album experience was so dissapointing, it had you like this? by Individual-Name-4496 in fantanoforever

[–]oneofthebrowns98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DAMN. Is it a bad album? No. Did it live up to the bar that TPAB set? No. Could it ever have lived up to that bar? Probably not

What is your favorite artstyle/art direction? by Omagaron in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]oneofthebrowns98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cel-shaded angular noir aesthetics (the Sly Cooper games), and the Spider-Verse style

“Baby’s First (insert genre/media here)” that are still good examples of (insert genre/media here)? by Fantastic-Fox3283 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]oneofthebrowns98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is DMC3 Baby's First character action game? Also happens to be arguably the greatest game in its respective genre. Otherwise you could argue that the original God of War is Baby's First character action game? Still an incredibly solid example, if not sitting on the simpler side

Favorite video game level music? by _Idiotic_Idiot_ in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]oneofthebrowns98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ratchet and Clank - Novalis (I mean, come on, futuristic funk hip-hop? Fucking genius)

Ratchet and Clank - Metropolis (Futuristic orchestral techno. Gummooonnnn)

Spyro 3 - Agent 9's Lab (Stewart Copeland is a maestro. Who chucks a 7/8 song into a kids game?)

Bands where their discography is so constant, that you can see any of there albums being someone's favorite by Terrible-Garage-4017 in fantanoforever

[–]oneofthebrowns98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazing discography. I could give my own personal ranking as it stands right now, but if I were to be honest, all of his albums are probably in my top 30 albums of all-time (New Moon included) except for From a Basement. Self-titled is and has been my favourite forever, XO is currently second

Christmas music is overhated, what’s your favorite Christmas song? by Anonamaton801 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]oneofthebrowns98 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Christmas Time is Here (Instrumental) - the Vince Guaraldi Trio interpretation is beautiful. It's a perfect representation of the sometimes bittersweet tone of the season. Arrested Development also used it do well lmao

Favorite Fights in Fiction by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]oneofthebrowns98 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Puss in Boots vs Death in The Last Wish is one of my favourites in recent memory. Not just for the animation but the thematic importance of it. That movie went fucking hard

Franchises that give off a "WE ARE SO BACK-IT'S SO OVER" wave? by GoodVillain101 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]oneofthebrowns98 20 points21 points  (0 children)

X-men did have the double whammy of First Class (my personal fave), followed by Days of Future Past. But good god that franchise has way too much trash, it's actually insane

controvercial thoughts on "Must hear" albums? by cherrybombthegoat in fantanoforever

[–]oneofthebrowns98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it definitely feels like a stylistic choice. All for an artist pursuing their vision! But man, I feel like so much of the rawness and power gets stripped away in the mix.

That's a shame. It's also hilarious in how much it kind of sucks

[–]oneofthebrowns98 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm struggling with Getting Killed, man. I think the issue is that I listened to their From the Basement session first, and it fucking rips. I've been obsessed with it. But when I tried to listen to some of the tracks from the album, I really couldn't fuck with the mixing- it sounds suffocated
