I wish they'd make a Pokemon Concierge game that was like Hotel Tycoon except with Pokemon, or maybe like Stardew Valley except with Pokemon. I think both those games would be good.

also this would never happen but if I got to wish one game into existence they would let the Disco Elysium guys make the next Detective Pikachu

Pain and Gain is great. I also think Bad Boys is phenomenal, Bad Boys II is awesome in a completely different way

but The Rock is an unambiguously perfect movie. every choice made by each cast and crew member who worked on it could not have been improved upon in any way

Bad Boys hell yeah I loved that movie! About The Rock, I think you're right. Like that Iraqi turncoat who gave intelligence to the US about Saddam's wmd's must have thought so too since he just described the glass beads filled with VX (whatever that is) from the movie.

honestly, yeah. if you're like me coming from a zillion of xvid.divx.cl0wn .avi files scattered all over from over the years. it's better to just setup the library of titles in radarr, let it properly number/name the folder and file structures, and then do a download of everything. especially these days h265 is more space efficient than old divx poo poo or 264, more likely to have proper 5.1/7.1 audio tracks, HDR (if your tv has it), more consistent subtitles, etc

i started my media NAS that way at first trying to move all things into folders, etc but ended up just re-downloading everything

can anyone recommend me the best soundbar out there in 2023 for like improving dialog and stuff? i have this old vizio sb5350-something but it sucks and there was always an visual-audio lag/desync over hdmi-ac so i have to use it over optical but then loses volume control, and honestly its just buggy and not very good

ive already embraced perma-subtitle lyfe but still it'd be nice to hear people talking easier, and i think a good soundbar would help

Pretzel Rod Serling posted:

yeah it’s not about that poo poo at all. it’s like a mid-apocalypse domestic thriller-lite but you don’t get anything but hints from the (omniscient) narrator about what is actually going on, it’s just this family of AirBnB renters stuck out in the Long Island sticks with the home’s owners and the sense that something unknowably dreadful has happened.

I found it really affecting honestly because so much of it is internal dialogue.

ultimately I think its politics are generically liberal, as there’s a little bit of race and class tension between both parties but no judgment passed on whatever happened (except “it’s sad people are dying somewhere and they don’t know why”); anything spooky is probably what Obama et al brought to it

anyway, Pokémon Concierge is wonderful and made me cry lol.

oh gotcha. thats why i didnt remember the narrator lol. but that paragraph sums up what the film was going for afaict. the why is very very stupid but also completely unimportant.

I forget which streaming service it is but I saw "dialogue boost" on one and I tried it out and it seemed alright but the show I was watching had musical numbers that it didn't recognize as dialogue so all of those parts were nearly inaudible

I guess I just need to buy a center channel speaker but hey, gently caress that

Depends what you're looking for.

The Holdovers is streaming now, and that's set during New Year.

And there are some New Years themed slashers on Hulu that I'm planning on rewatching this year. Some of the only non-poo poo titles under Blumhouse's Into The Dark label (though that series being a complete grabbag is kind of half the fun).
