Topic | Caught the West End production of Hamilton last year and I actually like it more |
saspa 07/06/20 1:54:32 PM #2 | I was excited for the movie but there's just something missing, about watching a musical theater play on a screen instead of watching it live, I feel like the camera doesn't catch every important moment that you would catch live. --- |

saspa 07/06/20 1:41:52 PM #14 | FabIemaster posted... pinterest is so fucking stupid. I might have made an account if they didn't force you to do it in order to view an image. Isn't that the same for instagram, twitter, and literally all of them? I just close the tab when the account sign in pop up appears since I have none. --- |
Topic | Caught the West End production of Hamilton last year and I actually like it more |
saspa 07/06/20 1:36:54 PM #1 | than the movie. I thought Jamael Westman worked much better as the titular Hamilton, though I love lin manuel miranda I liked the West End version of Eliza more as well, Rachelle Ann Go is lovely. Could be biased since that was my first exposure to Hamilton, but the only ones from the original I think are irreplaceable are Angelica Schuyler who is awesome, and Peggy who is iconic. Washington, Burr, and Jefferson just looked better to me in the West End version. --- |

saspa 07/06/20 10:52:15 AM #1 | Literally can trace it as far back as the 70s, probably further if you wanted. And yet they're so successful with these tired shows, making me wonder who even watches them. Meanwhile, serialized shows, especially ones with a really engaging overarching plot and strong characters always struggle with the ratings. I just don't get it. --- |

It's basically my entire reason for starting the show in the first place --- |

saspa 07/03/20 1:00:19 AM #39 | Jabodie posted... Is iZombie that romantic comedy with a zombie? It's this amazing serialized show with great characters and great performances that makes you really care about both the story and characters, starring Rose mciver, who was an absolute delight to watch onscreen. The best way that I always used to like to describe it is that as someone who dislikes zombies and detests all zombie related media which I've never had any interest in, this show absolutely captivated me. That's how good it is. --- |

Topic | Finally beat FF 12 Zodiac Age. Good game. Weak ending. Spoilers |
saspa 07/02/20 9:11:17 AM #10 | Well I like Gambits, I definitely enjoy the idea of pre-planning and arranging orders for my party members to attack while I micromanage only when necessary. BUT I didn't like this battle system when it was done by games like ni no kuni, which I despised because it felt like a stationary action rpg. So just as hectic as an action rpg but with the wait times of a turn based rpg, so the worst of both worlds; neither a true action rpg where you can dodge/defend and attack at will, nor a regular turn based rpg where you have time to sift through your menus. I liked both Xenoblade and FF 12, which implemented things that made their games fun, but I haven't liked copycats of their type of battle system. --- |
Topic | Finally beat FF 12 Zodiac Age. Good game. Weak ending. Spoilers |
saspa 07/02/20 9:02:54 AM #8 | I can imagine if it was Basch or Balthier as the lead, any of whom would do and would have been more interesting to see. Basch not being the lead basically had him being shunted off to the side after his escape and revealing he's alive to the marquis. Btw that whole plot seems pointless in hindsight and what was even the point of the subterfuge of having that whole framing Basch, imprisoning him and not killing him, how that possibly affects marquis ondorre and in what way, etc etc. The whole political intrigue in Archadia with the judges, the senate, Vayn wanting to seize power, that also could have been really cool if they'd just developed it further, it could have been something badass like Julius Caeasar levels of epic. But nope it's just "oh we could easily frame them for having killed the emperor and seize full power" like how does that work. All elements of suspense, gone. --- |

saspa 07/02/20 8:57:46 AM #5 | solosnake posted... You can really tell from the story and cutscenes that they didnt have enough time to truly finish the game imo. The pacing in the last 3rd or so is really bad, and the quality dips Right? And I feel like it's obvious just where that dip is, that last third as it were. But even throughout the game, it's little things like not enough cutscenes and development given to Basch, who really should have been allowed to speak more, and instead weird faffing about scenes given to Vaan and/or Penelo, with jokes that obviously fall flat like Vaan asking Fran her age (ha ha I guess?) The whole thing with Gabranth was ridiculously rushed and hilarious. They didn't even address the elephant in the room, Gabranth killing Ashe's father, even if it was under orders from Vayne (who was he even loyal to, Vayn or the actual emperor? It doesn't seem clear) --- |
Topic | Finally beat FF 12 Zodiac Age. Good game. Weak ending. Spoilers |
saspa 07/02/20 8:49:25 AM #1 | I mean it was okay... but really that ending was quite weak, basically that really long tedious lighthouse where you fight Cid was meant to be the final dungeon (?) and the Bahamut never really became much of a final dungeon, not to mention Vayne being the villain was just weak and no rhyme or reason for anything and the whole "reigns of history back in the hands of man" stuff they kept spouting. Just really disappointing, as there was so much potential in this game. But as for actually playing it, I had fun for the most part, enjoyed finally doing all the marks this time like Gilgamesh. --- |

saspa 07/01/20 3:07:06 PM #1 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGTkPSunYjI They forgot one of the best scenes in Lord of the Rings, in LOTR the Balrog wasn't supposed to fall. As Gandalf says, "You shall not pass" the Balrog was supposed to say "Gandalf, dude, what the f***?" Then puts his hands in his pockets, displays slopey shoulders, turns around and leaves. But since he instead fell, as he was saying "Gandahhhhhhh" along with Gandalf also falling, Jackson decided to keep it in the film. When you see the final cut, it really does work better this way. --- |
