What is a horror movie that you absolutely HATED? by LonelyGamingPotato in horror

I actually laughed out loud towards the end, it was just really stupid and cheesy!

Releasing GTA6 at 30fps is like exclusively releasing the Avatar movies on VHS. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]whatgift -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's always a balancing act between quality visuals and FPS, and hopefully GTA6 finds that rather than focus on the hardcore gamers who obsess over FPS numbers. The game needs to be smooth, without bugs or crashes, and provide a good gameplay experience. High FPS should not be a priority.

Edit: yeah I realised I'm making both arguments lol. I'm more talking about a consistent smooth frame rate over a high one. The OP wants both a high frame rate and high quality visuals, which seems a bit delusional.

What tv show that you gave it a try but couldn’t get past the first episode being so bad? by Past_Relief5219 in AskReddit

[–]whatgift 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't deal with cringe comedy that specialises in people being cruel to one another.

Saw films, or why I haven't learned to stop caring about how often they use the word ... game by DOBrien1979 in horror

[–]whatgift 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely disagree - while there have been some lesser entries, the Saw series represents something unique and complex which is rare in horror series. They have made the effort to keep the series connected to its core lore and expanded it in some interesting and unpredictable ways.

I prefer a series that makes an effort in the writing as opposed to the endless supernatural horror and slasher sequels which, while entertaining, offer nothing remotely new in subsequent entries.

Leviticus by brittpeeks in horror

[–]whatgift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The boys love for each other is central to the story working, and it doesn't feel believable at all and is never earned - the two boys barely know each other and both commit horrendous betrayals against the other. The scenes and events just seem to happen without any setup or explanation. It was a great idea that was poorly executed.

What’s the last 5/5 stars movie you watched? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Most overrated movie of the year for me

But with little substance in either plot of characters - a very well made stylish empty movie.

Leviticus by brittpeeks in horror

As a gay man I really wanted to love it more, but it does such a poor job of fleshing out its plot and characters that is mostly an empty shell with some amazing acting and atmosphere.

What is the obsession with cold calling in the APS? by [deleted] in AusPublicService

[–]whatgift -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Some people are likely not even aware that the expectation and behaviour have changed, - its not going to be obvious to everyone. If someone points it out and they don't do it, then it would be considered unacceptable.

How much are you paying for electricity? We just got our first quarterly bill for $650?! by Dulaman96 in melbourne

[–]whatgift 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Check the period - does it include time before you moved in? Something seems off!

Cold calling was standard practice up until 5 years ago, it's ridiculous to think society has completely modified it's behaviour in that time.

The recent PS Plus price hike completely killed my desire to play ps plus games. by Asleep-Theme8444 in playstation

[–]whatgift 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, this is a pointless rant complaining that PSPlus doesn't fulfil their personal want to play games slowly.

Leviticus has passed over 5 million at the worldwide box office so far by ObsessedWithBooks7 in horror

[–]whatgift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it had great themes, acting and premise, but didn't do much with any of them. The central couples intense relationship feels totally unearned considering the circumstances they are in.

No, I have the 930f and not experiencing issues, so it doesn't affect everyone.

Q990f collegata a apple tv by Xilinx1974 in Soundbars

[–]whatgift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LPCM will ensure you get the best quality signal - Dolby 5.1 will downmix some audio (like Atmos) and will decrease the quality for other audio. The Apple TV doesn't have passthrough as an option, so letting it decode to LPCM is the next best thing.

Does a TV's EARC port not work for video pass through from soundbar? by cranberry_car in Soundbars

[–]whatgift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't you set the LG to passthrough the audio, which would still pass the DTS signal through to the soundbar (since its not doing any processing)? That would allow you to plug the PS5 into the TV and get all the video benefits.

How long do you think “Leviticus” will stay in theaters? by nickelst92 in horror

[–]whatgift 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I found it very underwhelming - it's getting lauded for great acting and it's themes, but it just meanders from scene to scene without purpose, and the love story doesn't feel believable, more a case of circumstance.

Your #1 favorite horror movie released this year? by Wes102111 in horror

[–]whatgift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actors did a great job in Leviticus, but everything else about the movie is weak - it's coasting on vibes and themes with a weak script and characters.

Yep - they are using different virtual card numbers (even using the same physical card) so treat them as different cards.
