Xaris posted:last season of expanse was pretty notably gutted budget-wise that part of the books was pretty blah in any case and they weren't ever planning on following it up because they killed a major important character bc the actor was a sex pest and they didn't want to do something where everyone was 30 years older it was still gutted yes but the source material and external conditions made it look worse than it should have

I recommend watching the documentary about Laibach going to North Korea. In the Sound of Music video on Youtube (which is very cool and well done imo) they cut it so it looks like the audience is intrigued by the music. In reality people left as soon as Laibach had played their first song, The Whistleblowers. The camera shows people holding their ears and grimacing, it's actually very funny. They all walk out about after that, though at least one woman in the audience said she enjoyed it when asked by the documentary people.

I’ve had that “Pleased to Meet You” song from the VICE guys singing karaoke in the DPRK stuck in my head for years. I’d be curious to learn more about North Korean music, if it’s as static and old fashioned as it comes across, or if within the genre people are having fun, doing new things. On the other hand, we may not realize it, but we’re still familiar with lots of Music Hall and sheet music standards, maybe just as children’s music, but still. It would be weird if there were concerts playing “Hail, Hail, the Gang’s All Here” and “I’m Henry the VIII, I am” today, but you probably could get people to sing along. Maybe that’s what’s going on there? We just see the standards being played when people visit North Korea and think that’s what everyone listens to at home?

It's not even Legolas they care about book Legolas was bland as white bread they're hot for young Orlando Bloom and that's fine, but call it what it is

Book Legolas was a sheltered prince who embarked upon a quest and became best buddies with a dwarf before the duo went to heaven together on a boat.

I’d be curious to learn more about North Korean music, if it’s as static and old fashioned as it comes across, or if within the genre people are having fun, doing new things. They have some music there that's reminiscent of disco with lyrics are about the war, building the country, praising the Kims etc. In the Laibach documentary you can hear "We will go to Mt. Paektu" by the Moranbong band playing in the background at the airport. They play huge concerts with choreographed dancing and pyrotechnics, while wearing specially made uniforms. Many of the songs are catchy too. I saw a clip of a Western guy at the famous Pyongyang waterpark belting out the chorus to Mt. Paektu up on the 10-meter while the locals watching him happily sang along. My impression is that this type of music is widely popular. I have no idea whether or not people are listening to it at home or how many people have devices for that, but that would be interesting to know. Lol I just realized what song you had stuck in your head, that one's extremely catchy. Grevling has issued a correction as of 14:47 on Sep 5, 2022 |

Dunno how I feel about HOT D beyond "it's fine" but I do like the king and his daughter quite a bit. The king in particular has some "I'm in over my head" energy that I'm into, though I don't know whether or not the backstory that this is based off of(?) ends up with him in over his head.

no time for anything cool or creative, time for some shots of sand and those goofy power rangers fights lol i think i made the mistake of watching the lynch one shortly before which is technically a much worse film but is 1000x as imaginative and has loads of things that are referenced constantly today ...DUNC made the climax of the film pauls duel but didnt have him give water to the dead, no time for world building or emotion, more sand! lynch dune added stuff to dune that people associate with it today, dunc pretty much subtracted things from dune, the only new stuff is what, that weird spider man?

The Newsroom is by far the most epic show in the history of television. I especially liked the episode where Will had each individual Tea Partier call into the nightly news so he could pwn them in the marketplace of ideas.

Communist Thoughts posted:no time for anything cool or creative, time for some shots of sand Lynch wrote the thing, "It is by will alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the juice of Sapho that thoughts acquire speed, the lips acquire stains, the stains become a warning. It is by will alone I set my mind in motion." this poem and its so good at world building. it's insanely good. Also he asked the guy who played Duke Leto to get surgery on his face so they could pump gas into his mouth when he bit the tooth but the actor said no so they horribly burned him with a tiny tube of smoke taped to his face instead

it's really sad to see Jodorowsky's Dune and Lynch's Dune and then DUNC which is just so, so bland. A culture that runs on Meth trying to tame a muslim people on a planet with worm gods and people named Duncan Idaho and a genetic experiment designed by a coven of witches gets carried out a century too early and fucks up their plans. it should not be bland.
