LemmySoloHer: Across the Fediverse
I just watched this last week, OP this is 100% what you’re thinking of. The guy that directed this episode also directed Mandy with Nicolas Cage and Beyond the Black Rainbow.
The ancient legendary YT meme that Anon has as his profile pic is Leek Spin by Xyliex, created 18 years ago! I think it also popularized the Levan Polka as a meme song staple long before it’s revival with Bilal the street drummer/cat vibing video.
And luckily it’s already on archive.org so we’ve got one down!
My best guess is the Tales to Tremble By scary story collections:
Each story had some creepy art by Gordon Laite:
A lot of this fits with your descriptions from the best of my recollection.
Edit: Removed paragraph about potential third scary story series containing spider egg story, just realized that one was from Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark 3, so Tales to Tremble By and its sequel is my only guess here.
I think the most memorable is probably The Wolf of Wall Street but it was nowhere near as awkward as it could have been. My sister and her husband wanted to see a movie with the family in theaters. Luckily the uproarious constant laughter from the packed theater was far more manageable than the awkward silence that would have happened with an at-home watch.
What really got me was that a whole group of my friends had planned on seeing it the week before, but one very difficult guy insisted that he would not go see a “boring movie about financial crime” and made such a huge fuss that we finally agreed to see American Hustle instead, which was a very tame movie “about financial crime” funny enough.
After, that guy said he was bored for the entire movie (despite the fact that American Hustle was actually pretty good). If it wasn’t for the fact that The Wolf of Wall Street is exactly the kind of movie you want to see with your friends and not your parents, and that American Hustle would have been a perfect movie to see with the family, I’m not sure it would stick out in my mind so much.
Mobius is pretty fascinating and Klein is hilarious! They all have their own quirky charm that makes them all fun to interact with, though I’m partial to Dr. 0 simply because it’s the same guy that voiced Dr. Venture on The Venture Bros. and the Wild Wasteland trait has him reference the “giant walking eye” as a nod to the show.
Whose your favorite out of all the doctors at the Big MT?
No announcement or confirmation from Night School Studio regarding GOG, Steam, the Playstation Store, or the Nintendo eShop as of yet. My guess is they would give a decent warning announcement if it were to leave those outlets as well, but regardless I did download my copy from GOG to my backup drive just in case.
Just to clarify, what temperature do you set your freezer at and does it stay that temp of do you notice it fluctuating more than a few degrees throughout the day?
I’ve got family members that have loyally progressed through this game over the course of years and they absolutely love it still. Great music throughout.
Gubernatorial
I’m not sure if it’s underrated but Mario Tennis Advance for the Game Boy Advance is a gigantic standout for the series.
It’s an action RPG from the same company that made the Golden Sun games for the GBA. The usual fun power hits and tennis mechanics with some of the tightest controls in the series with quality world building and the kind of RPG satisfaction you’d get from a company like Camelot.
According to Schipper, the first attempt was dull because the actors were too cautious, being afraid to make mistakes; the second attempt was the opposite, as the actors went “crazy”. Schipper says he became “angry” and “terrified” after seeing the second take and realizing he had only one chance left; in a subsequent meeting, he gave the cast a “hairdryer speech … [it] was not a meeting that ended in hugs and ‘good talk.’ It was crazy. But the tension was built on knowing we wanted the same thing”. Schipper believes the final attempt was successful because there was an element of “aggression” missing from the other versions.[7]
Added to my watch list, I’m super intrigued to see how the final cut turned out.
Cal: “You’re indeed brave Scout Trooper, but the fight is mine.”
Scout Trooper: “Ohh, had enough eh?!”
Cal: “What? Look, you stupid buckethead, you’re stuck in a wall!”
Scout Trooper: “Just a flesh wound!”
It’s happening again…
Definitely one of those games with incredible background designs that are worth just stopping and looking at sometimes. It’s one of the few games I’ve gotten 100% achievements on and a large part of that is I can treasure hunt a long time when the scenery gives me something stunning to look at.
For those who watched the movie The Endless (2017) – does anyone else think this guy played a role in the film?
Aside from the joy of playing Injustice as a comics fan, I really really enjoyed that I could find something fun about playing each character. My top 2 are definitely Green Arrow and Batgirl, but it starts to get harder to choose from there. I definitely would also put Solomon Grundy and Batman up there too, I totally get why you have them in your top roster.
I never owned Injustice 2 and unfortunately didn’t get to play enough of it to choose, let alone get to try all the awesome new characters they added. I’m sure a day will come at some point where I finally get a real upgraded gaming experience and can then get the sequel for myself!
Saving this to read after I get the game and finish it!
