Also, I'm just trying to make sure here, is everyone who's following along seeing the in-game text in the images? Plus, out of curiosity, are there any places other than imgur where I could upload my pics from my laptop?

Can anyone tell me why people pay to see a film/play/musical if what they really want to do is talk to their friends and play on their phone?

In other news, just saw Matilda the Musical and it was awesome.

Music Post - Great Singers Edition

I'd been listen to a song where the singer lets loose in the second half...except it was in the same muted tones as the first half. It made me think of all the great vocalists I'd heard over the years, and what they could do with the song... and then I remembered Lara Fabian.


(TW: Flashing lights, death, ableist language)

The video and song are very turn-of-the-millennia, but that voice is still something special, especially that last line...

So when you think of great singers, who do you go to? The distinctive voice and rapid-fire delivery of Daveed Diggs? The sweeping tones of Whitney Houston? The only man that can grunt musically, James Hetfield? 'Link em below!

Been a while since I've been able to post these, but re: play is back! Here's the June episode:



Spoilers for FFVI, of course. Pretty major ones this episode, actually. And it's closed captioned! (I know I'm really behind on these--I'm going to go back and do the last couple episodes this week, hopefully.)

Anyone else have a series that their disappointed they can't recommend on one of Mark's sites for whatever reason?

Because, MAN, do I wish I could see him react to several episodes of the Adventures of Pete and Pete....but season 3 isn't available.

I'm still watching Hunter x Hunter. I love that Gon's strategy for facing any foe more powerful than him is just to keep coming at them until they give up. Classic.

What are your Top 10 Movies of 2016 so far?

The year is more than half over and I dare say that my list will change massively before 2017 rolls around. (Especially with Oscar season on the horizon still.) For now, however, these are my favourite movies of the year. What are yours?
