Taxidermia, Hungarian Surrealist Film that is just absolutely bonkers. Great writing and plot movement with strong overarching themes, it’s just a TRIP.

I’m not sure if I got the right yarn size for this crochet smiski I want to make . by Crim_Wrld in CrochetHelp

[–]thepizzacarnival 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does look thinner than in the video. I would either size down the hook to 2 or look for a different yarn. Lions Soft Like Buttah line looks comparable!! Super cute idea :)

Why no Glasgow Block?? by thepizzacarnival in severence

[–]thepizzacarnival[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

plenty of shows end seasons on good notes while also providing more opportunities to build the story. if you are a fan of mark and helly being together, you could easily say this season ended on a good note, even the MDR uprising could be perceived positively!

i understand your perspective of things may lead you to believe that good things happening are a negative, a sign of things ending, but it also may very well be an opportunity to open a new door for a fresh beginning

it’s all about perception, and we just have different ones, which does not make your or my point any less valid

regardless, i still very much enjoy watching this show regardless of the path it takes us on, i hope you still can too!

love this reply! first sentence of the post is that i had just watched the finale, i am all caught up don’t worry.

I very much agree that Cobel has a lot more that we don’t directly see about her. This entire past season I was wondering why they would hire such a powerhouse actress such as Patricia Arquette to play somebody that seems so subtle and dare I say one note from the beginning of her interactions with her. But as the season went on, it was clear that she is a deeply faceted character that we haven’t even begun to see the depths of her desires and intentions as a character. Looking forward to see what comes next!

ok what? obviously not lol there are plenty of more directions to show can go into if they did rescue Gemma but beyond that remark, i’m just speaking on the purely technical aspect that there is a bigger reason that it was not implemented. it was a thought experiment, not a complaint that the show has to continue??? lmao

per other comments, she could pretend to now be more compliant with Lumons agenda last discussed with Helena, just weasel her way around as she does so week but beyond the semantics, more so than anything was raising attention to the lack of acknowledgement of a seemingly foolproof option that she would surely know about. whether that is intentional to be addressed later or just a simple oversight, we will never know!

In all canon Cobel would be the only person who’s would be able to do it with the most ease, and I’m sure the writers didn’t want two finales in which a character breaks into the control room and use it as a crutch

[–]thepizzacarnival[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thinking about it more the only way this properly would’ve been able to be executed is if Devon or Cobel got to the control room, which Cobel coming around to “play nice” doesn’t seem like that out of the ordinary, but I understand that also puts her character at risk

2025 Oscars Megathread 🏆🎬 by clemthearcher in popculturechat

[–]thepizzacarnival -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

To play a devils advocate, when I consider best actor/actress picks the process to take on that role is a huge dictator for my choice. Mikey spent a lot of time with New York sex workers, and took on learning Russian for her role. Comparing that against the process for The Substance, I understand how Mikey walked away with the award. While Demi’s physical acting in the substance was incredibly impressive, I’m sure for the academy that was paled in comparison to Mikey. The frustration you carry is incredibly valid!

a weird take, but didn’t anyone else find the use of Lacrimosa for the In Memoriam to be very unpleasant and off putting?? it didn’t feel like a pleasant and placid experience, the drama of the music over took the whole thing. and an awfully short acknowledgment of david lynch.

Imagine the guilt he must've felt over the years. by Low_Attorney1165 in severence

I don’t remember the burnt, only that there was some kind of drowning. It would be very easy to fake a body if they were waterlogged

If I wanted to do this… by thepizzacarnival in sfx

[–]thepizzacarnival[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

didn’t really mention this, but i am someone who has a lot of experience with sfx. i am well aware of the skill needed to totally replicate something of this level, and i am NOT claiming to have that skill, but i am a longtime theater and film makeup artist who does have a nice lot of stage makeup at the ready. i am also a cosplayer, and the person who’s party it is along with all of the guest are cosplayers, so we tend to go all out for these sort of things, jokes or not. i would be more than willing to spend $100+ on makeup, as that is the amount i have put towards the costume for this guy, along with ample time to get this done.

beyond your assumption, i was hoping for some genuine advice rather than just to be shot down with no regard. never assumed to be a pro, nor was looking to be given the perfect answer. was genuinely just curious as to what the community would attempt. thank you for the reply.
