I'm going to say because it's short, stupid catchy. Sometimes your brain goes to random places and then logic sets in. Ignoring typical reason is what makes absurdist comedy work. We obviously have a character playing it straight trying to figure it out getting more and more upset by the illogical which makes the bit work. The music is silly and not eerie at all and then getting scared freeze frame when they continue to point out the character is not scary is the kicker and sort of makes it worth it. This was probably just a random skit they threw in last minute and thought, just have fun. A lot of hit songs are simple, obvious, stupid and catchy. Rick James thought Superfreak was a throw away song too dumb to be on the album and it's his most recognized song.
Is there information on lenses for phone cameras? Seems impossible to place a lens directly on top rather than hardwire it.
Headline. "Movie studio will keep making same movie/tv show until you stop paying for it." But yah this I agree this is usually the point that studios are able to franchise or will drop it.
Love Villeneuve. He knows it's unsustainable to keep quality with studio houses, execs, number crunchers. He delivered the first two films and has said from the begining finishing book 1&2 would be the dream.
Highly recommend not watching the trailer! It gives away so many of the iconic surprises of the book. Seriously just read the book or go in blind to this show/movie. WTF is wrong with trailers showing us everything now.
Good luck. Snake.
Great movie. I've seen many with the "one take" premise. Time code, Russian Ark and the ones that pretend but don't really. Rope and snake eyes. Victoria is an amazing feat of filmmaking.
God. I miss the days of these requests and bridge burning as a young punk. "Oh you don't want us to mention x y z" First song talk about whatever weird thing they don't want you to. "Oh you don't want us to swear?" First song getting the crowd to chat give me a f.u.c.k. "Oh we need to turn it down?" Crank it on the second song. We are young and angry and we were never expecting to get paid this all means nothing to us. Side note. Always be nice to the staff and sound person they are just doing their bullshit jobs.
I don't think it would be about the workforce but the fines. Most major corporations seem to try to avoid anything with stiff fines. They will straight up remove reviews rather than cut into the bottom dollar if the minimum fines are high enough.
Favorite - Wild at Heart. Best acting - Leaving las Vegas. Unique Gems - Raising Arizona, Red Rock West, Knowing, Moonstruck, Adaptation, Bringing out the dead, Mandy.
I agree with the comments here. It's not very good but they go so far out of their way to laugh at themselves and the studio for making the film that it becomes charming. There are a lot of 80s / 90s sequel movies that make weird choices instead of rehasing and I'd much rather see something I'm not expecting. They know full well that a direct sequel would never please the fans so they basically destroy Matrix lore. I don't think Neo fires a gun which I found incredible as statement on the previous movies. So yah not good in the traditional sense but it's quite original in its post modern take on internet fandom, studio forcing sequels, lack of originality, commenting on not giving the audience what the think they want, etc.
Amazing photo. So cool to see. When I see things like this I wonder what flat earthers say when there are literally thousands of photos like this. Do they think there are people just a bunch of people creating fake photos?

Very cool. Thanks. I've heard those kz 1000 are literally death machines because of the engine size weight ratio.
Awe shit. I feel sorry for this guy. He's probably overworked at an underpaid job and the internet is going to get him fired because Disney has very strict policies for cast members.
Yah. Pearl Jam spent years in limbo because they thought everyone would join the fight. But no big name artists ever did because no one wanted to rock the boat. During COVID ticketmaster / clear channel/liveNation/ iHeartRadio whatever have continued to consolidate. They own the tickets they own the resell websites they own most of the big venues they can demand merch sales at the venue. If you refuse they can remove you from playing their venues.
At this point it would take 10+ huge artists to final kill this beast. We are talking Taylor Swift / Beyonce big that actually have complete creative control. I don't even think most top artists have that. They would have to organize everything and they would probably lose union contracts for stage craft and audio, lights, transportation. Basically they would have to start their own ticket & touring companys that outdoor fields and sports areas? and would have to stick it out for years and convince a good majority to stop buying tickets from any place using Ticketmaster.
Wholly crap am I the first person to watch this video!? That is a first for me. Great work. Keep it up. Would love more details on the build.
Psychonauts was always one of those games I was meaning to play ever since it came out. I've played most of the double fine titles but I started it and it didn't instantly click so I put it down and never got back to it. The second one came out and I thought alright time to go for it. Wow! What a debut from double fine! Clever and fun mechanics, well defined characters, engaging story and actually laugh out loud moments! If you have kids the game dialogue is snappy like a Pixar movie. I made it to the tower and just can't wait to see what happens next. There are a few small things like camera angles or controls that can be a little frustrating after all it's almost a 20 year old game but if do yourself a favor and grab it for $2 on steam or Xbox store right now if you think you might like it. I've already got #2 in the queue.
