  • weird coincidence: i was listening to some grime stuff on soundcoud and suddenly came across a new skepta track that used the same beat as mike jones' 'still tippin' which jane was posting abt yesterday

    Also dumbasses think any character Henson created past 2004 is a "Muppet", because their soul-death detectors don't work


    i don't understand what this means
    Soul-death is a concept a lot of people don't seem to have

    I can't quite describe it

    BEWARE OF GRRL!
    examples of soul-death include: those godawful early-to-mid-2000s episodes of The Simpsons people wax nostalgic over anyway

    imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i haven't watched The Simpsons in a good while so that doesn't really help

    is it when the writers run out of good ideas but have to make new episodes for the $$$ even though their hearts are clearly no longer in it?
  • P much
  • We can do anything if we do it together.
    Do the Star Wars prequels count as soul-death, or are they something else entirely?
  • I have barely watched them!

    Alright.

    I think Al Jean has profit participation on the show now so that explains why he can keep going with the charade that is Zombie Simpsons, but it's still kinda weird that he does.
  • SOUL DEATH 1995 (*a bunch of random kanji*)
  • Do the Star Wars prequels count as soul-death, or are they something else entirely?

    Star Wars sequels are the exact opposite of soul-death.

    Instead of the original creators not caring about the end product, it's the original creators getting way too much power and driving their own work into the ground.

    or as it's called in videogames, the Daikatana issue

    Perhaps the Star Wars prequels were the beginning of you know what nevermind nobody wants me to go there

    The Kaminoans were cool.

    FWIW, you're not really wrong in what you're trying to imply.

    were those the cloners?

    i liked those
  • My dreams exceed my real life
    I had one as my avatar for a while on TvTropes.

    Apparently it made people think I was a grill.
  • i tend to think the prequel trilogy had a lot more interesting ideas, but the execution was sloppy

    whereas with the original trilogy the ideas were very basic but the execution was tight, which still isn't enough to salvage it imo but whatevs
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i don't see how this 'content' thing is a-ok but when i wanna shitpost about politics or remember silly TVT arguments from way back it's negative and boring and shameful
  • also capitalism is the worst


    it's the reason an album "produced by J Dilla" came out this year.


    wait what


    what was it actually?
    an album by his brother Illa J that used a bunch of his old beat fragments.

    it's actually by far one of the least scummy posthumous J Dilla releases.

    I think it does salvage it, but that at the same turn, it's not enough to justify the pedestal they're placed on in popular culture nowadays.
  • the content thing is dumb as hell but we must rehash it for at least another 2-3 months until we find a new thing to complain about

    that is the way of the heap

    i agree with this mostly, i did like the original trilogy though

    but then, i was a kid when i first watched it, idk if i'd like it so much now

    Case in point, you and me have said the same things we just said about Star Wars at least five times by now.

    I did bring it back up this time, so sorry about that.
  • this is because we are all collectively going through the realization of the nature of the culture that all 20somethings have but we have not yet found our peace with it

    How do we feel about old Sarlaac vs new Sarlaac?

    i feel the old one was more convincing

    less visually interesting though maybe? not sure i can be objective about this
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    can i make a general-purpose gush-about-fun-things thread?

    would anyone post in it if i did?

    The Winter Soldier and all the Thor films aside. those were heinous

  • though yeah as a whole it is symptomatic of how marketing has reached a point where everything popular is streamlined into a sort of blandness of acceptability

    but I think we will work through that eventually, and lots of people are still making good things, so I am not too upset about it

    "Content Creator" is perfectly acceptable if you're a Youtuber because calling yourself a Youtuber has a stigma about it.

    Otherwise though like

    Well then you make videos.

    Or an entertainer

    Or a comedian

    Or even a chef

    I liked the set design on the first Captain America quite a bit.

    I haven't seen Winter Soldier, but I can't imagine that I would enjoy it.
