It wasn’t admittedly that much of a disappointment, but simply because the premise wasn’t very promising.
Spooooiiiileeerrrsssss!!! Nothing major actually.

Apparently, there are people out there who think it’s not okay. I kind of get them, but I also very much disagree.
There has been way too few mentions of Jean-Luc Godard on this blog, so in order to cement myself as a pure movie snob, let’s talk about him a bit.
Years ago Mark Rosewater talked about parasitic design. This was the situation where a set or block (remember those?) worked well mechanically on its own, but not really with other sets. I think the go-to example was the original Kamigawa block.
What is Big Score? A year ago, they tried the Aftermath. It was a small set of 50 cards that was sold in booster packs of 4. However, those packs were priced similarly to regular packs. Of course, the consumers are not stupid and there was an immediate backlash. So, they decided to scrap the similar product that was planned for this year and 30 of those cards were rolled into Outlaws of Thunder Junction.
Okei, olin jossain vaiheessa todella innoissani Kirjastokinosta, koska se oli ilmainen. Siellä oli joitain elokuvia, jotka olivat hankalia hankkia muuta kautta, mutta yleisesti ottaen se tuntui palvelulta, jota joku ylläpiti vaan voidakseen “fill the assignment”. Siellä oli paljon roskaa. Silti, se oli ilmainen ja siksi olin vähän pettynyt, kun se lähti.
You know the hbomberguy video about plagiarism that destroyed at least one career? I’ll let others talk about that, while I’ll go directly to the end. There’s a section there, where Harris talks about other queer content creators, who he recommends as alternatives to James Somerton. He also gathered these and more in a playlist called Your New Favorite YouTubers. Who knows? They very well might be, although there’s a bunch of people you already probably know.
I haven’t done these in a long while, because making these always takes a horribly long time. So, I chose something that’s actually easy to cover, because there isn’t that many of these cards.
So, I decided to write this series of lists based on various awards. You know, right as the actual awards season is over and forgotten. For some reason, I decided to start with this.
What is diegetic music? That’s music that’s happening within the movie. Like John Cusack’s character bringing a boombox to play In Your Eyes in Say Anything…
What is a needledrop? That’s when the moviemaker tries to elicit a reaction from the audience by using an existing song within a movie.
Sometimes these are combined, like in these ten great examples.
