    Silicon Valley

    I'd done a really good 45 min shaggy dog story joke earlier that night for stand-up that killed but my 4am take didn't flow as well. I hear you Itlan, I've been wtf to myself since typing that up.

    Sense8

    This is pretty rough to watch. 40 min into the first episode and I'm going to have to take a break and come back to this. It feels like Cloud Atlas v2.0 combined with the camera work from Law and Order. Not really sure how I feel about coming back for any more of this. Feels like pretty standard...

    Silicon Valley

    I think that Russ might be one of the best douchebag characters ever written for tv and beyond the great writing by Judge I think that it's also music selection that locked this in. He's listened to Limp Bizkit and Crazy Town so far while driving crazy expensive cars and wearing his pants with...

    What are you listening to at the moment?

    slightly imperfect Kid17 National Anthem. I think that I like it better than the one that's dead on with the 17 second delay.

    Crimson Peak - Guillermo del Toro's return to horror

    I think that it would be right up his alley. Good bit of dark and fantasy with some overarching horror and a universe that he could fine tune beyond King's blueprints for it. King's work always seems to really grow into its own and find its legs when someone else takes his stories and adds that...

    Crimson Peak - Guillermo del Toro's return to horror

    Del Toro was just born to make movies and the man has a masterful grasp on what that entails. He's got that Coen brothers vision of everything that needs to be and his movies never end up failing due to having a scattershot tone like most horror movies fall to nowadays. I think, after watching...

    Darkest Dungeon

    Thanks, was wondering if I was missing something big beyond just understanding of mechanics or stumbling on the learning curve. It's interesting that this seems like one of those games where you can't wait to go back to pounding your head against the wall to try to break through to that next...

    Darkest Dungeon

    stunned enemies dodging attacks is making me want to throw my keyboard through the wall. This is fun but for the difficulty it's not as good as a lot of other, equally, difficult games out there. Too much RNG to get fucked over by. Is there a way to see the battle queue or change it in any way...

    Raven's Cry - Gamespot review "Rampant racism, sexism, and homophobia"

    player is meant to derive a perverse pleasure in pushing women off of docks

    The Secret World

    Game is well worth $30 even if you just play it solo. A few oddities but overall the game is really fun and just going through the story is worth the cost of the game.

    Frank. Really wasn't sure what to think going into this but it was really great. Some good music also.

    Festival Thread. Anything regarding festivals past and future. Going to Glasto 14!

    If they moved a few people around then day 2 would be a lock but yeah, this completely missed the mark. Jack White is apparently bringing Run The Jewels along and that along with a couple bands from day 1, a good chunk from day 2 and maybe 3 from day 3 make this somewhat understandable but fuck...

    The Netflix Thread

    It has all of the pieces in place to be a good movie. Cast is good and everything well acted, story seems enjoyable, and interesting setting for what they were shooting for but it just fell apart on almost every level and got really disjointed. There seems like there's an edit buried somewhere...

    The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)

    I was off put by the complete CGI of Dain but then found out that it was basically done in order to keep Billy Conelly in the movie at all. I guess the Parkinsons and Cancer treatments or probably just the diseases themselves hit him really hard and he was unable to memorize and complete his...

    Review, with Forrest MacNeill

    The Australian one is really funny but gets really dark, I guess like most Aussie comedy. It used to be on Hulu plus but doesn't appear to be any more but is definitely worth the effort to search out if you like the Andy Daly one. The Andy Daly one is pretty much great from the very first review...

    The Official Guitar Thread

    alright, I'm going against all reasonably sane decision making skills and eschewing the purchase of a Block Letter 5150 at the start of the new year and grabbing an Orange TH100 instead. I need a big amp for starting to play shows again next year and can't get around how many sounds I can tweak...

    North Korean Hackers Attack On Sony

    So he's been at the helm for the most intrusive cyber attacks that the world has ever seen. He should just put his job description down as cyber obstetrician now because he's been bedside and party to Sony getting ripped V to A twice now while they involuntarily birth all sorts of information...

    autoharp, harpsichord and lute metal, you guys need to start playing catch-up with my folk baroque metal that I just invented. Active pickups on the autoharp and everything is run through a Block Letter 5150, we even DI the drums back through their own 5150. It's PBS and NPR style thrashing.

    The Official Guitar Thread

    Bass is really fun. I think the only reason that I don't have more fun playing it is that I've got nice guitars and a beater bass. It always feels utility for me which is why I stick with guitar. Not utility as an instrument on the whole just for me in that I don't initially write anything on...

    Ham's Top Albums of 2014

    Those Run The Jewels albums are just monsters. Messes with my head while listening that Killer Mike is Taquil from Friskey Dingo. The new alt-j album had some good tracks but it's a lot of studio magic and they sound like shit live. Mogwai Rave Tapes was really good, a few standouts but overall...

    What We Do in the Shadows (2014)

    i was really wanting to just type that whole comparison out but felt that it would ruin the shock of how funny it was, I've sold three people on the movie just with that quote.

    What We Do in the Shadows (2014)

    torrent. This is one of the few movies I immediately wanted to send money to the distributor after watching the first few minutes. Taika Waititi is a great writer/director/musician and I'm immediately buying some copies of this for friends and family once it pops up anywhere.

    What We Do in the Shadows (2014)

    New Zealand humor is really weird but it worked for this. Rhys Darby as an incredibly polite alpha werewolf was also a big highlight.

    The Official Guitar Thread

    If I run a 5150 into another 5150 and then run that second 5150 back into the first do I even need to play or be present on stage anymore or will the resulting shred inherent in the amps just play its own show and allow me to just hang out with women?

    Constantine

    It does feel a bit weird having one of the "team" not present since it seems like he's either with a group until they all eventually die off or just runs solo in the comics which I feel could turn this into a good run if it gets beyond this first season. People seem to really like the...

    Constantine

    They should just let the new girl speak with her Spanish accent, her American one is kind of off putting it's so bad at times. I kind of wish the last episode had been the first one like it was the first comic story, really sets the tone for how what Constantine does ends up requiring some hard...

    I was back and forth on Mine Games but it does end up a decent horror film. I kept comparing it to other, similar, movies in my head while watching it but it was competently made. Randomly watchedThe Best Offera few weeks ago despite it not appearing to be about anything of any interest at...

    Supernatural

    Dean being a demon was kind of meh. Him going Bukowski demon and just wanting to drink and fight was interesting. Was thinking that was going to be a lot more important arc than it turned out to be, and a lot longer. Overall we're immediately back into whiny Sam, no big bad and a season devoid...

    I can't for the life of me get my high strings perfect on my older guitars when I set them up but for some reason i get pro on basses when it comes down to it. I'm at no Noodleface level of playing but I'll definitely echo his sentiment. Turn some screws and see what you come up with; the guitar...
