I tried to read Asimov (by recommendation of my grandpa) as a kid and even though I was big into really heavy, dry philosophy and philosophical books I couldn't get through any of his books - if you watch Foundation without expecting a great adaptation of the books (which in and of itself would be quite an achievement which I doubt we'll ever see) it is a pretty great scifi show in my opinion. Certainly piqued my interest in finally reading the books even if it's nothing like the show, but then again I don't expect adaptations to be exact replicas of the original work and find that very difference enjoyable.
My folks had a stove with two (electric) heat elements in the same way I assume OP has, to use both, you had to go 360° all the way to a full circle where it "clicked", then go back to where you wanted it at. Much easier and sensible IMO than whatever the hell this headache is.
Lol obviously, brainfart on my behalf. Is there a word for those kinds of sarcastic (for lack of a better word) quotes where it's not just quoted, but implied to cast doubt on the original text/quote?
It is! Clint Mansell and Aronofsky are a match made in heaven, but The Fountain is one of favorite soundtracks of all time and the one I listen to the most. I don't tend to listen to soundtracks all that much, but I find myself listening to the Fountain all the time
I was honestly a little shocked to find The Fountain rated so low, Tomatometer (fuck the tomatometer anyway, audience score is where it's usually at) was 52% with scathing reviews, the audience score fortunately remedied the situation with 74% cause I was seriously starting to look for another site.
And for it's opposite: The Blair Witch Project is 86% vs 56%. I haven't seen it in ages, have been planning to, but it was one of my favorite movies for a while.
Lol, haha, I never thought about that. I used to watch a shit-ton of movies as a teen. Got into horror movies, David Lynch and weird stuff early on so I kind of dove into the deep end very early and with no social life there was a lot of time to watch a lot of stuff.
I seem to be having a phase where I don't really watch movies that much (series more than ever), but when I do it's usually kind of "comfort food" so I'm mostly watching all-time favorites over and over again.
I guarantee you that's not the reason. They did/do similar shit with Facebook and people were pissed, now anyone barely remembers or cares. People don't care and facwbook/meta/zuck certainly doesn't.
You just introduced me to a completely new concept to me and like magic, made my one of my all time favorite games (and a bunch of others) unbelievably more replayable. I was fine with only playing it once or twice a decade, but I guess I gotta play it more now.
