they’re called “little bites” now which as a child i would just find demeaning

Show thread

remember when mini wheats were too big so they invented even more mini wheats

like i used to listen to the christopher nolan batman movie soundtracks but then the mad max soundtrack came out and it’s like those but what if they were good

Show thread

@aescling i haven’t

and musicals unfortunately i find mostly unimpressive from a musical perspective; it is rare to find one which is compositionally interesting in addition to having good lyrics

maybe i just don’t watch enough musicals though

also mad max: fury road has a great soundtrack, listen to it sometime

Show thread

you may say: but kibi, the purpose of a movie soundtrack is simply to frame the action on screen, and having too much soundtrack depth or interest would be distracting

to which i would reply: clearly you have not seen lord of the rings

Show thread

like he makes compositions which do their jobs but they’re not deep or interesting, they’re just functional with rare exceptions

Show thread

i think hans zimmer is not that good of a composer

anyway this is why the lord of the rings is good

Show thread

even in star wars george lucas made the intentional decision not to have luke be a jawa

Show thread

like personally if it were up to me i’d rather be interesting

Show thread

i think it’s interesting how white male fantasy has a tradition of making the most interesting fantasy people not be the protagonist, who is mostly boring despite being the chosen one

@witchfynder_finder i also love fantasy a lot more than sci‐fi lol so i mean there’s bias in this room :P

@witchfynder_finder like Back On This Point but i think it’s beautifully ironic that they took Dune, a book with a reputation for being Extremely Hard Sci‐fi, and turned it into this

and they did it without really compromising any of the sci‐fi elements either

@witchfynder_finder i was more like “that’s what i wish sci‐fi would be” tbh

@witchfynder_finder people who think dune is too slow are the same people who didn't cry at the end of totoro
