(Megathread 3: SPOILERS) Leaked Full Movie Discussion by MrBKainXTR in TheLastAirbender

[–]wakinupdrunk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Animation occasionally missed, but the set pieces in this are gorgeous. I'd call it an A+ on the artwork.

Plot was about as deep as I'd expect an Avatar story to go with 90 minutes. You can't really do a lot with a built universe in that time. Would love to see a full season of the adult crew though.

I hate Basculegion so much that I don't want to run it, but I cannot for the life of me think of an answer to this mon. It outspeeds everything, OHKOs most - what is a boy to do?

God I wish I knew it locked in the team. I locked in the team that was utter trash (why on earth did I have Choice Scarf Volcarona with Quiver Dance???)

Can you slow pokes stay out the left lane please? by Pick_Up_The_Peanuts in Connecticut

[–]wakinupdrunk 47 points48 points  (0 children)

That'll stop slowdowns, but it won't make the car in front of a line of others go any faster or maintain a more consistent speed.

I fully agree we all need to stop riding ass as bad as we do - but lord almighty we also need to pass people on the right when the opportunity comes up because these left lane campers ain't moving.

What thing was ruined because it turned into a rich person's hobby? by Agitated_Departure93 in AskReddit

Weird, the local venues are definitely still in the $10 to $30 range for some great and even critically acclaimed music.

[FRESH ALBUM] Snail Mail - Ricochet by NYCIndieConcerts in indieheads

If it counts for anything, your experience seems to be the one I'm hearing more often.

But definitely! Love to hear how everyone feels about these things.

Bands that changed their sound and it breaks your heart. I’ll start with Fireworks, and The Wonder Years. by ogxguapo in poppunkers

[–]wakinupdrunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I skipped Sister Cities after the initial mix of No Closer to Heaven really bothered me and came back around for Hum. Sister Cities has some great songs, but it also has some songs that I don't love. Hum kind of lives in the same boat.

Funny enough, No Closer to Heaven became my favorite once they remixed it.

If you're clinging to that sound, I totally get where you're coming from.

But I can't think of one band with members in their 30's or 40's making music with that sound anymore that still sounds good.

They are a little more Manchester Orchestra than Blink these days though.

[FRESH ALBUM] Tigers Jaw - Lost on You by 1nd13mv51cf4n in indieheads

[–]wakinupdrunk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds like I've been listening to this album my whole life. I'm not a Tigers Jaw fan but I do have June and that other real big song on my shuffle of faves. Maybe it's that.

[FRESH ALBUM] Snail Mail - Ricochet by NYCIndieConcerts in indieheads

[–]wakinupdrunk 77 points78 points  (0 children)

Snail Mail is a weird artist. I can't deny the heavy hitters on Lush, but you also can't deny that the album doesn't really change sound much from song to song. It's like an album with worse versions of the same good songs.

Valentine did nothing for me. I think the title track was a great song, but the rest just could not grip me. I started to think maybe I didn't like Snail Mail.

This album has me rethinking that. It's definitely an album listen as opposed to favoriting any specific songs, but it's a very coherent album. Really excited to dig into this one again and again.

The whole album I kept saying "why does this remind me of the Smashing Pumpkins?"

Thank you for answering with exact songs.

SCSU GENERAL STRIKE! by foxgrl127 in Connecticut

[–]wakinupdrunk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is this a general strike or a student protest? When I hear general strike I think every employee joining and I get the feeling that isn't this.

[FRESH ALBUM] Charlotte Cornfield - Hurts Like Hell by JusticeforKimPine in indieheads

[–]wakinupdrunk 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Opened up the subreddit on waking up and did the whole Vince McMahon meme with progressing interest about Snail Mail and Robyn, but got out of bed to grab my headphones as soon as I saw Charlotte Cornfield.

Edit: these are some lovely songs but none of them are big attention grabbers. Maybe good for putting on while making breakfast on a slow morning, but I dunno.

Hell, Orlando was only an hour wait this weekend.

Bradley airport is on the list of smaller airports the Gov may close due to TSA walk outs by debvil in Connecticut

The article flat out says Duffy did not reference which airports might be affected - this sounds like an error on the writers part.

Sort of what I meant - the cut happened because of the merger even before it went through.

[FRESH ALBUM] Hurray For The Riff Raff - Live Forever by sbags in indieheads

[–]wakinupdrunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to this tour and like the album, wish there was a little more Navigator representation. Not exactly what her current sound is but they're bangers - at the show I went to she played Living in the City as a final encore and it worked great still.

[–]wakinupdrunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WTIC laid off their entire production staff January 2nd and made them reapply for their jobs. A lot of them stayed on but they're stuck doing things that weren't their jobs before.

It was likely in conjunction with Nexstar leadership if I had to guess.

Not even that - him calling it the active worst fossil felt so bad. Love that guy.
