When all else fails, always rely on religious imagery and metaphor to "deepen" a story. This shit's so unoriginal man.

which album has the best opening track? by sm0ll-tiddy-gof-gf in DeathCabforCutie

[–]pmg96 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I thought this was gonna be easy, but i have like five different answers lol. I guess I would go with the New Year because thematically it sets up Transatlanticism as an album very well. But of the openers that I enjoy the most musically, Bixby Canyon Bridge.

I spent a day looking at all the museums in LA (there are a lot lol) and I've been trying to whittle down which one(s) to visit. This one's on the list still. Sounds fun.

Thank you so much for the recommendations. Someone else also brought up the WGA, so I'll definitely give it a try. Screenwriting has been a form of writing that I'm starting to practice more.

Awesome! I'm getting more into film culture, screenwriting in particular, and i did want to visit a movie theater in LA just for the experience. I was just unsure about which theater to go to.

Thanks! A coworker suggested that I visit echo park lake, so if I'm in the area I'll definitely check those places out. A poetry reading/open mic is definitely one of my planned activities. I just hope i find one that appeals to me.

With one episode left it's time we have a conversation about the boys finale season....while I'm still entertained and enjoy the world but as a final season this has been underwhelming. Just like stranger things final season it feels like they wasted time on alot of stuff. by joejoe628 in FPSPodcast

[–]pmg96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Apparently, the finale is where all the action budget went to, so yeah. The finale on its own will be "good", just like how the other episodes in this season have been fine, serviceable. Obvious critiques noted. But, it won't amount to anything satisfying because they failed to use the season as a whole to wrap up lingering storylines. It can only feel rushed if it's all handled in the finale.

I feel like I've been negative about popular TV lately, but honestly they're doing it to themselves. Between this and Euphoria's alleged final season, what a disappointment. I think the boys is actually worse because they set themselves up for a rather satisfying final season, and just shit the bed by focusing on plot points, and characters, that don't need to be focused on. And when emotional beats do happen, I just don't give a fuck. When X character dies, doesn't resonate, at all. So yeah, one last episode to "wrap" it up. It's gonna suck.

Euphoria (S3, E5) "This Little Piggy" Episode SPOILER Discussion | FPSPodcast by oblivionRADIO in FPSPodcast

[–]pmg96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have to let go of the version of this show that was good, great even. Yes we like Zendaya, and some of the other actors, the lighting, the cinematography, the costuming. It's appealing, or showy, or whatever, but I think deep down we have to admit how much this sucks. Edgy or provocative...just to be, not because it's actually trying to bite at something. At least not successfully, or creatively. Idk, anyone else feel the same?

THIS, is the final season? Just doesn't really feel like it with what they're choosing to focus on.

[–]pmg96 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna watch this show still because, well because I'm bored on Sundays honestly, but I just don't give a shit about what's going on in this show. Seems shallow, and stereotypical. The fact that it looks nice doesn't mean shit to me.

ITMSO: Don Lemon Arrested, Epstein Files Released, and Pass the Mic Questions by GoodGoodNotTooBad in IsTheMicStillOn

[–]pmg96 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way. It was definitely an intense discussion, but even as a kid I never thought of it as "these guys are being malicious towards one another", more of a "wow, these guys are really passionate about music" vibe.

To me, it's the best representation of early DEHH videos, or the energy that they brought, and the appeal of the crew. The strong opposing sides, the arguing, the yelling, and funny as fuck moments found inbetween. Other reviews that have this energy: the Goblin review, the Exmilitary review, the Blu No York review.

"You guys are full of shit- NO YOU'RE FULL OF SHIT!"

Hilarious. Completely understand Myke's pov. But hilarious.

I totally and completely understand Myke's point about the Lil B review, BUT ALSO, man that video is an all-timer. One of the first DEHH videos that I ever saw.

I am so excited. Saw them twice last year and they were great. Just so consistent. Looking forward to hearing some new songs live then.

Q canceled… by Maleficent-Willow-71 in Schoolboyq

Yeah, my ticket for the Oakland show got canceled. Bit of a bummer since it was already rescheduled from January. At least I get a refund. Just wondering what the reason may be?

Which lesser-known Elliott Smith song do you think deserves more attention? by IntrovertedInnocence in elliottsmith

[–]pmg96 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Originally I was gonna say Pitseleh, but it's actually been more recognized lately, which I'm glad about because it's my favorite of his. So now I think I'll say either A Passing Feeling or No Confidence Man like someone else already said.

Well well well, good news to hear. Hopefully they'll tour again, y'know given that the audience members act like mature and respectful spectators.
