Absolutely. There's a reason that formula worked.
The trick with The Pitt is that HBO branding and the audience that has responded to it most immediately are the Prestige Folks, but it really is intended to be a 1990s primetime drama. In every sense. "We're going to tell some stories, make some jokes, learn some lessons today, see you next week."
It's not cringy for the audience they're aiming for. My parents would love The Pitt and they would be doing some honest learning from all of that.
There probably isn't. But that would make this the second book I read for a game review, which has to be a good sign.
I wonder if there's time for me to read it before my review of Keep the Faith goes live...
Yeah, I don't know that the store would be open for long, but.
Surely we can do *something* with Imagined Commodities...
The scene when they sing La Marseillaise is probably my single favorite scene in all of cinema. Makes me cry every. single. time.
FOR THE FIRST TIME??? Man oh man, what a wonderful privilege, to get to watch that for the first time.
A fine photo of your hand there.
And boy does Leonard Bernstein push that Largo to its breaking point. It's almost ambient music at this point. Divine.
Sometimes anything more than that is just trying to fill the space. What more needs to be said other than, "It's very, very good," y'know?
Follow me for more in-depth musical analysis of this kind.
The thing about Dvorak's ninth symphony is that it is very, very good.
It creates some cognitive dissonance, is all.
My problem is that I refuse to believe that about all the other suckers, but then I have to remember that a decent percentage of those other suckers opted for the bad leader TWICE, after a DEMO that went POORLY
The nice thing about that factor, of course, is that its causality works in both directions.
Gosh. Hard to say. There are so many possible factors, I can't imagine any one of them trumping the rest.
I'm not sure if I like it or not, as a matter of personal preference, but it's an uncompromising version of itself and I really enjoy that.
I have earned this opinion. I've been listening to that album off and on for two decades now.
Bit of a hot take here, but I think Dusty in Memphis is only fine. Its reputation is significantly improved by the fact that it has "Son of a Preacher Man" and "Windmills of Your Mind," two of the greatest records of all time.
My review of Re;Match was basically "This ain't for me but it's very good at being the thing that ain't for me" and I think that has a lot of value.
This is what I'm asking!!!
His entrance in LICORICE PIZZA is one of the best laughs I've ever had in a theater. Fabulous stuff.
Funny to see Premiere in 2002 pulling out the same talking points we pull out now.
What shenanigans are these
Right, right. That makes sense. That stuff was pristine.
The footage looks great, the sound is *astonishing*. Where the fuck were those tapes buried?
Tangent, have you seen EPiC?
