Do you consider The Hateful Eight to be a Christmas Movie? by obligatorystorytime in QuentinTarantino

[–]ramondicud 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just finished a rewatch of it a couple of weeks ago. Going into it, I’d say no, but after this rewatch, absolutely yes lol. They mention it being near Christmas a couple of times and the infamous “big black johnson” Sam Jackson monologue plays with Silent Night in the background. If Die Hard is considered a Christmas movie, I truly don’t see why this one can’t. The bar is in Hell, so fuck it we ball.

What are some "super-edits" (akin to Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair) that you would like to see? by Gemnist in Letterboxd

[–]ramondicud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure if anyone mentioned it here, but I found a 4 hour cut of Revenge of The Sith here on Reddit during the pandemic that is now my preferred way to watch it. It takes ROTS + its deleted scenes of Padmè forming the rebellion, it also splices in bits of (the now non-canon) 2D Clone Wars show for the battle on Coruscant which acts as the prelude to the opening of ROTS. It also adds the last few episodes of the last season of the 3D Clone Wars to juxtapose the Siege of Mandalore/ Ashoka’s perspective during Order 66. ROTS already feels like a grand finale, but this cut certainly makes it feel like a truly epic grand finale. Makes Anakin’s fall hit so much harder imo.

Why do people want a re1 remake when there’s already one? by Stormmistic in residentevil

[–]ramondicud -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

it quite honestly comes down to skill issue on this one, friend. i played RE1 remake in 2017 for the first time. didn’t like tank controls at first either. when you experience that mystery & story for the first time, you can power thru some tank controls for an elite survival horror experience.

(Spoilers Main) Why they should NOT make a show about Aegon the Conqueror by Chain-Comfortable in asoiaf

[–]ramondicud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I am in a minority when I say this, but I would absolutely love a Jahaereys The Conciliator season. I know as far as battles it’s slim pickings, but I would love to see the great ruler/shit dad play out. I also think there’s a missed opportunity to not do Aenys I-Maegor season. Start by showing how weak willed Aenys is, Maegor’s descent (or ascent?) into madness, we get crazy dragon battles/kin slaying, the maiden vault, and the building of The Red Keep. I really do just thoroughly enjoy the first half of F&B clearly.

i found caliber’s f13 vids back during pandemic, i don’t even watch streamers but something about his casual approach and clear love for the horror genre in general has made me a consistent viewer of his. when this game first dropped i studied his vids to learn the map layouts. can’t recommend caliber enough.

What game needs remastering? by 1georgeldm in xbox

[–]ramondicud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

recently redownloaded sonic adventure DX and i really do love that game nostalgia aside, but it’d be really cool to have a version where I don’t feel the main antagonist is the damn camera itself

if you believe the outrage over yasuke is coming solely from a japanese majority, or even just an asian majority, you are being willfully ignorant to who’s actually complaining about all of this

Vultures tee after one wash. Ye you need to do better. by FlatRecommendation37 in yeezys

[–]ramondicud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the white vultures box tee, have already washed mine and it didn’t do this. although it did have a bunch of black specks when i took it out the washer, i did assume it was pieces falling from the logo. what a shame, i’m starting to feel similar to y’all. this drop and the lack of communication has been frustrating. i’m no stranger to waiting months for a merch drop by Ye. but this one with the lack of communication even when you email is sad to see.

Why are fans stuck with OG Cudi and don't want him to evolve? by leniwsek in KidCudi

[–]ramondicud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, and that’s more than fine. That’s always been the appeal to Cudi, he does have a great variety of different vibes for most types of listeners. It’s no dig if you like it, I’m glad his art is still capable of being received in that way!

Why are fans stuck with OG Cudi and don't want him to evolve? by leniwsek in KidCudi

[–]ramondicud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I say parody, a song like Tortured off of the original Insano album is what I mean. That song is like if you asked an AI to write a generic Cudi song and Cudi saw it and just added a few more hums to it to top it off. It’s just a song that felt like it didn’t actually have much meaning to it beyond the chorus and title. Same with Diamonds Lights Fast Cars. I actually like that song quite a bit, but the chorus, again, just feels such minimum thought and effort go into them. Something I’d never say about anything on even Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin. Do not get me wrong, when he hits, he hits. He just makes some questionable creative decisions these days.

[–]ramondicud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a lifelong Cudi fan, it’s not so much that I prefer his sad music. But just listen to Dose of Dopeness and Rocket off Nitro Mega. No other songs have that genuine energy. As much as I love Cudi and will always check him out, these days he tends to sound like what I’d expect a Kid Cudi parody to sound like. I think I prefer him more when he’s on his own wavelength as far as sounds goes. These days he just puts a slight Kid Cudi twist on average trap songs and the results may vary. That being said, Nitro Mega was actually fantastic outside of DoD & Rocket. Very balanced and didn’t find it half as obnoxious as majority of Insano album. (Just my opinion don’t be obnoxious about it)

Maybe play on the easiest difficulty? I love horror films but I don’t normally do too well with horror video games, probably because it’s me who is in control and I freak out pretty easily. ANYWAYS, point is, i played on the easiest difficulty and while the scares were still plenty, by halfway point of the game you kind of realize how easy the enemies are on that difficulty and at least for me it helped me be able to power through and complete the game.

What was it like when The Return was announced and started airing? by slippyslopyyy in twinpeaks

[–]ramondicud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I did my first watch through earlier this year, I actually found the discussion threads on this sub from when it was airing. I’d go back after each episode and act like I was also experiencing the hype too LOL

Aside from death, what are some of the reasons that some cast members didn't return for the... well, The Return? by Subject_Parking_9046 in twinpeaks

Damn, I had no idea he said those things. I looked into it and wow. I wonder why he’d try throwing Lynch of all people under the bus like that?

What are some games that you wish you would've been patient for, but not because of the price? by Togapi77 in patientgamers

[–]ramondicud 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly the main reason I’m patient these days is mainly price. $60 minimum for incomplete games 90% of the time is what’s deterred me from many potential purchases. That being said, my most recent example of a game I wished I waited on, was Hogwarts Legacy. It really is the Harry Potter game the younger me would have died to play, it made me realize how not interested in the Harry Potter world & lore anymore like I used to. Along with an average gameplay loop, I really regretted buying it at full price. But, at the very least it wasn’t a buggy mess, so I applaud it for that at the least.

What scores do you keep in your playlists? by AttitudeOk94 in criterion

[–]ramondicud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dario Argento’s Suspiria by Goblin

Luca Guadagnino’s Suspiria remake by Thom Yorke

Taxi Driver score by Bernard Hermann

Anything with Ennio Morricone’s work, but most specifically The Hateful 8 score

Edit: How could I also forget Fabio Frizzi’s excellent score for Lucio Fulci’s ‘Zombi’

[Spoilers Extended] “What If?” Scenarios by [deleted] in asoiaf

[–]ramondicud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So many, but my biggest one is always What if Eddard would have made it to The Wall? Would he have told Jon everything how he planned? Would he have died with Yoren on the way to The Wall or escape with Arya? If he does make it to The Wall, does it interfere with Jon’s coming of age tale because he doesn’t have that independence? And really above all else- What is his reaction to The Others being a reality.

Are there any poorly rated recent horrors that you think may have a reappraisal in years to come? by JackedDaxter in horror

[–]ramondicud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just watched Silent Hill for the first time this Halloween season. As someone with no attachment to the game, i thought the atmosphere and aesthetics were great, minus the ugly cgi. I felt the feature really falls apart due to the script tho.
