  2. Empty those wallets boys and girls it's The Game Chasers Motion Picture on Kickstarter! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2121405390/the-game-chasers-motion-picture?ref=project_link

  3. Just realized that The Favourite was the only new movie I saw all year. At least it was a good choice.

      Ahaaa! Nicely done.

  4. RLM brings Macaulay Culkin back to review three terrible films including a Home Alone sequel. Enjoy.

      Just watched it. Nicely done!

  5. Finally got the mono verison of Are You Experienced? I was sure it would stomp the stereo version but it doesn't. It actually sounds like someone threw a blanket over my speakers.

      A mono record can be mixed to sound great even though it's mono. Pet Sounds was mixed in mono and is fantastic.

      lol I remember hearing AYE on MTV back in the day when they were "in stereo".. and for some reason all you could hear was the hard left side which had no guitar, just the monotonous piano chord. It sounded horrible (try it yourself and see). If that was anyone's first "experience" hearing him, I can't imagine they would have thought it was any good.

       

      Huge Jimi fan here btw. More than most would expect :)

      Those wide pans of

      "fake stereo" can rob a song of the energy that and driving momentum that the mono mix has.

  6. Macaulay Culkin is a fantastic movie reviewer. Who knew?

      Oh boy. I guess I need to listen to this, but as much as I liked his teardowns of the prequels, I really like TLJ and don't know if I can bear any more internet nerd hate of this thing I liked.

      I did not think of it until after the wedding but I really would have loved this as my wedding song.

  11. A scientific approach to making Star Wars great again

    1. jaybird3rd

      jaybird3rd

      Yay, it's Scientist Man!

      I like that when Rich inevitably mangles the english language they just incorporate it into the script. "Popcorns? Popcorn is plural already."

  12. If you like weird, horrific, exploitative, and sexploitative mastered to Criterion standards and pressed on physical media then fer cryin' out loud don't miss Vinegar Syndrome's halfway to Black Friday sale.

      Heard that - what BS. Love their products and currently have 2 of their players. They were more than profitable enough, but are calling it quits for no real reason. Very strange.

      I'm into hi-def, but on a budget. never ponied up the exhorbitant funds for OPPO gear, ever.

      Was going to pull the trigger on a 205 sometime this year. Their players were more expensive, but they were built like tanks and played many formats, that to accomplish at decent quality on separate machines, would typically cost more.

       

  19. Just saw the amazing Courtney Barnett at the Electric Factory in Philly. Wow. Just wow.

  20. Finally got the free trial of Vinegar Syndrome's streaming service, Exploitation TV. Whole retro horror, exploitation, and a whole lotta vintage porn. I feel like I need a shower. http://exploitation.tv/

  21. "Greetings, my friends. We are all interested in the future, for that is where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives.

  22. I finally decided to try the y cable trick for playing mono records with a stereo cartridge and I am happy to report that The Beatles never sounded so good to me before!

  23. Be the first kid on your block to own a talking Sinful Dwarf plushie!
