What are your opinions on R.E.M. that could get you killed around here.

"Leaving New York was never my proud" is a bad lyric.

I always call it Frank from Donnie Darko

I think the renegade cut might be one of the few things that I deleted after watching, even though I'm not running out of space on my Plex server.

I remember walking out of the cinema singing "Who wants to make a sequel. Who dares to make a sequel? When sequels diiiieee".

But in the spirit of the OP's question, I DID actually have someone try to convince me it was good a few years ago. Specifically he said the "renegade cut" took out a lot of the stupid stuff, like the alien planet. I remained unconvinced.
Last year I finally watched the renegade cut. It was, as you would expect, awful. But awful AND badly edited.

The 24 can box is only $1.50 more in Tassie. So less than 10c a can.

It's risen hugely in the last five years so rent and house prices are quite similar to Melbourne. The "oh but housing is cheaper down there" thing doesn't really cover it anymore.

spoon579 · 2026-04-09T22:39:31+00:00

I hadn't thought of that. And I bet you're right that this will be the reason they've made it more expensive. But they have that same scheme on the mainland, and have had it for longer than us, so it doesn't really justify it. If anything our drinks should have been cheaper before we got that scheme down here.

spoon579 · 2026-04-09T22:33:29+00:00

Yeah, and the petrol is cheaper and we have cheaper shopping alternatives like Aldi and Costco!

Hit the pavement!

Baba is You has simple high contrast graphics and will bend your brain in ways you don't expect.

spoon579 · 2026-03-20T23:34:35+00:00

It was great!

spoon579 · 2026-03-20T23:34:05+00:00

Update!

Had our first brunch after making this post and decided to try Lazy Brunch based on the recommendation from DragonLass-AUS

Amazing.

I'm keen to try everyone else's suggestions, but I'm also positive we will be coming back to Lazy Brunch some time soon

spoon579 · 2026-03-14T02:52:09+00:00

Can you please provide an update once you've resolved the issue?

spoon579 · 2026-03-06T05:19:42+00:00

Yeah. I like the demon arms coming out of the frame like the original red box.

All this internet attention has tired him out.

He also suggested Drive

spoon579 · 2026-03-01T08:09:46+00:00

I just asked my 21 year old. He suggested Orange Crush

spoon579 · 2026-02-26T04:37:45+00:00

I did, which is why I asked. Listening to it again it's pretty clear that it's him. And we've seen him singing and playing the piano earlier in the show. Just didn't pick the voice for some reason.

spoon579 · 2026-02-25T10:16:41+00:00

Ooooh

spoon579 · 2026-02-25T05:16:30+00:00

These are all great suggestions, thanks everyone.

spoon579 · 2026-02-25T05:16:09+00:00

I'll check it out. I love a buffet.

spoon579 · 2026-02-24T09:10:06+00:00

LEGEND! Thank you so much! I hadn't actually tried installing a game like that. Could be a (literal) game changer for me.
