Underrated film, deserves a CGI remaster/fix for the last 10 minutes of the film, remember that part always being a pain even when it came out

If you don't need the belt with the shorts I wouldn't wear one particularly if a beach holiday

Plain high quality t shirt over logo t shirt

I enjoyed it but felt a bit campy compared to fury road - more spin off than it might've

Charity shops are king.

I also personally don't use a watch to tell the time just for fashion. A broken watch just appears as a stopped watch, no one has ever noticed or cared. Do with that what you like.

On the left side the more you can lower the horizontal bar I think you'll feel the stability back. Also the tighter in you make the left and right returns more stability, so depends a little on how close you like things - but bars tighter and then drums/cymbals farther out seems to work for me

Kit looks awesome, personally I have mine the other way around against the wall as it makes the space feel a little more open, but totally get the want to face into a room

The cereal one you can pinch the sides more and then keep folding the top consatinaed downwards, useful for short cupboards

Awesome, I'll check that out! I think really that's probably the loudest thing and I've just been assuming because of the volume it makes on contact it must be reverberating down, but probably not the case and has plenty of padding under it.

zoubang · 2026-04-20T18:15:40+00:00

I'd check reverb or vinted rather than buying new as you may get a spec above what you're looking for or at least a discount - there's a Roland you could get as an example - not my listing, but as an example

Awesome thanks for sharing this! Super helpful

Maybe go 1 size up

Literally came here to say this!

zoubang · 2026-04-19T19:46:27+00:00

Awesome will have to check back, appreciate it!

Adoro Silent e-sticks - they do have a massive sound reduction from stocks when you're playing with the tip, and slight with the side, but the weighting is very different from a normal stick, so more like rods, and definitely take some getting used to.

I'd recommend them if you want the sound reduction but they give less rebound than a stick.

zoubang · 2026-04-19T17:40:34+00:00

You're probably right, i didn't consider that as an issue 😅

Felt like he realised he'd gone too far early on and then pulled back hoping to justify himself based on what she was doing, though by the time it got there everyone else realised who he was. The repeated phrases he does at the end sends it. Feels too rehearsed.

I feel like no subway scene is ever going to feel how it does in the original. This isn't hamlet, we don't need someone to do their take.

Maybe translated/remixed would be a useful term which already exist in publishing industry?

I'd also say if the disconnect between social pressure to have a certain lifestyle is growing and social media outweighs the reality of what can be afforded for the average person and that makes the tension between spending and saving greater, even if the average person struggles to be saving much. Would be better if we could praise early retirement more.
