I then transitioned to a broad spectrum of skills acquired through the passion of game creation on Roblox - Formerly a Lead Developer for an indie game studio known as '[studio]', which was a project known for creating fun games for children, that gathered 1 million group members, and over 75 million game plays through a platform known as Roblox. These games generated a collective $70KUSD over the course of their popularity combined (20% of revenue was cycled back as advertisement funding). Through this community that was developed, we were able to raise over $6.5KUSD to help fund small indie projects from other smaller development groups. - Among many other games I created music for, one in particular is worth noting: 'Doors', amassing 4.9 Billion plays since 2021, has reached the screen of nearly every kid that is playing video games today. - Collaborated with popular online celebrities (YouTube, TikTok) on making games and experiences for their communities, some of which have billions of views and millions of followers. - I am a contributed developer to other popular games and projects with 2.6 Billion collective plays. I fulfilled various roles in these projects, such as game design, Front and Back-End programming (Luau/Lua 5.5+ & Typescript), 3D Artwork/Video Animation (using programs Blender, Photoshop, Premiere Pro/Sony Vegas, and After Effects), Music Design, Character & Object Animation, Architecture, and Voice Acting. Many of these games are a major source of income for the developers involved, such as "My Restaurant!" (of which I did 3D & 2D graphic design for), a game with ~800M plays, created by a studio known as BIG Games, which is the highest grossing development group on the platform. I connected to these groups and Studios through the Roblox Dev Forum, a company known as "Hidden Developers", Twitter, and my personal website. Through these projects, I nurtured my passion to create, and developed several solo passion projects for my own personal enjoyment. - Bug Tested various other games over several years, solving issues for experiences that went on to have hundreds of thousands of concurrent players. I am also a former member of the Official Roblox QA Team (before it was disbanded), which tested upcoming features to the platform. I have since been very active on their Developer Forum, helping all creators (young and old) solve issues and create awesome games. - Although my game development has slowed, I am currently working on a large game that will show the hardship of Schizophrenia and Social Outcasting through intricate storytelling. I intend to release this game on multiple platforms, such as Steam. - Created a Roblox Plug-in that detects Backdoors and vulnerabilities within games, preserving user data and game integrity. This plug-in has been used by nearly 300 developers thus far. - Created my own file syncing program using C++ via Visual Studio Code, that analyzes computer folders for identical information and can delete it or sync data from one folder to another (if not identical). This program has been used by my friends, but I did not publish it online. - Created a Discord Bot with custom commands for the Interbyte Studios Community server (18k members). This application allowed the community to interact and have a recreational token and minigame system for engagement and bonding. This bot was initially created in Python, but was then completely revamped in Javascript via Node.js (with some minor html for some special features.) - Created a customized theme for Canvas and Roblox using the "Stylish" extension, coded in CSS. - Utilizing BetterDiscord, I created my own lock screen for the Discord application to protect my computer from siblings and/or any environment I am working in. This came with a customized theme among other features, such as a built-in Spotify controller (play/pause, skip, and tuning into what others are listening to), and it synced up with my Discord Bot in my own server, allowing me to see the statistics (account age, user ID, etc.), and possible rule infractions of a given user within the community. This was coded in Javascript (Node.js), CSS, and HTML (for embedding purposes). This served to speed up the moderation and disciplinary side of my community, but also improve the efficiency of the Discord application.
Awards & Honor Groups: - x2 Academic Letter, Top PreACT at School - Outstanding Solo-Ensemble Award w/ 1st Place for self-composed, led, and performed Marimba Duet - Superior (1) Rating at District Music Contest for Marimba Duet - x1 Music Letter (only offered at former school) - Outstanding Jazz Soloist Drum Set at State - Outstanding Jazz Soloist Piano at State - Nominated Ambassador of Music (International Program) - All-City Percussion - All-State Jazz & Concert Band Acceptance (Committed to Jazz) - [College w/ International Jazz Program] Jazz Band Performer - State Finalist VEX Robotics (Freshman) - Nationals Runner-Up VEX Robotics (Sophomore) - Honor Thespian
In essays I hope to write about my aspirations to create The Iron Giant and how Robotics is an art. I am also planning to write about how my downfall in Freshman and sophomore years re-shaped the way a school district functions forever, and my recovery and discovery of ambition.
I'd like to know what colleges would accept me (I really want a shot at T30 or so) and what would be good for me. I would also appreciate any and all advice for my resume and what I should do for LORs, or any aspect at all.

2024.06.09 18:16 Kekktye A Sourced History of My Chemical Romance's Lost Songs Rediscovered Nine Volt Heart Info

This is a repost with new info, corrections and better formatting. Thanks for previous contributions! <3
I've seen quite a few "All lost My Chemical Romance songs" and "My Chemical Romance rarities" posts, but they mostly all either:
A: Conflate "Lost" with "Rare" or "Not studio-produced" B: Aren't Sourced C: Incomplete D: Have disinfo E: Mistakenly include working titles for later released tracks as "lost"
So, here we go! I've gotten most of my info from a few archives and long-time fans in the community but I would love to hear any additions you have to add! The more eyes the better!
For clarity: Bullets = I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love Revenge = Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge LOTMS = Life on the Murder Scene TBP = The Black Parade TBPID = The Black Parade Is Dead! DD = Danger Days CW = Conventional Weapons TPK = The Paper Kingdom MDNSY = May Death Never Stop You
Tracks are listed in supposed creation order, then by discovery or release Nine Volt Heart aka Android [..?] - Song title found in now-lost Flash player elements of My Chemical Romance's official site going back to at least 5/25/2002. According to a 2011 text interview by Cassie The Venomous with Gerard and Mikey, the song was played once live at NJ's Loop Lounge to bad reactions from the band and poor fanfare and as a result shelved from future releases. Later possibly reworked into an unreleased song named "'Android...' something?". Though according to a 2004 post by SpaceyRaygun, a long-time friend of the band, Nine Volt Heart was instead reworked onto a Revenge track. Fandom rumors going back to at least 5/3/2006 claim Nine Volt Heart was a cover of the Smashing Pumpkins' song Bodies albeit with slightly different lyrics. Although the poster's source songmeanings.net has since taken down the potentially false lyrics page.
The Attic Demos aka Dreams \of/about]) Stabbing and/or Being Stabbed - A CD Distributed at early shows and among the band's circle. Later partially released on 2014's MDNSY, though these demos circulated the fandom pre-2014 from these promotional CDs.
Wish You Away aka Drowning Lessons Rough Mix - If community sources are to be believed (1) (2) (3) (4)) (5) a variant of The Attic Demos distributed among friends and family of the band contains recordings of 'Vampires Will Never Hurt You' titled "Stabbing" and 'Drowning Lessons' titled "Wish You Away" (Pre-release titles corroborated by the early instances of My Chemical Romance's website).
Stabbing aka Vampires Will Never Hurt You Demo - Found as of July 23rd, 2022. Demo released via Instagram from for Bullet's 20th anniversary. This CD was given to Nada Recording in 2002 prior to their recording of Bullets. Clip is partially cut off and downloaded through Instagram API.
Early Sunsets Over Monroeville Demo - An Attic Demo found by SpaceyRaygun with an Early Sunsets Over Monroeville recording not included on MDNSY. Included in notable bootlegs such as Self-titled MP3 Collection released 2010. ~Fake demo debunked by (Friend of Matt Pelissier) and SpaceyRaygun (The track's original source).
Sister to Sleep - One of the earliest songs written for Revenge, revealed in a 2003 interview as conceptualized for The Freddy vs. Jason Soundtrack before licensing fell through. It was re-conceptualized around The Sandman series of comics, where sleep is anthropomorphized as the titular Sandman, and his sister as Death. In its released form, the lyrics explore sleep as an analogy for death and themes of insomnia and institutionalization. Ultimately, the track was cut from release by producer Howard Benson. Two live recordings (1) (2) of this song have circulated the fandom for a number of years, with one found more recently all from the same show played in NYC's the Knitting Factory on 6/26/2003. On 10/17/2022, it was played once more in Inglewood during the RETURN Tour, albeit slightly different lyrics. Later, Frank spoke on a 2023 interview about using live footage for practice, likely explaining the difference in lyrics. In 2013 the band had stated in an interview potentially none of the members still possessed a copy of Sister to Sleep's demo recording (A claim still supported by Frank in a 2022 interview) except possibly for a soundcheck library recording Mikey was given from the Knitting Factory show. With renewed interest in the song, Matt Pelissier was asked via Twitter about the track. If community sources \1]) \2]) are to be believed, a Twitter user "Martin" asked Gerard the whereabouts and existing number of these demos, Gerard would share that they lost the only existing copy moving from coast to coast a number of years ago. Martin then asked Matt about the demos to corroborate Gerard's story, which prompted Matt to reveal more info. Matt claimed he was given an additional copy of Sister to Sleep, as were all of the band members, their studio and their label. Fans supposedly questioned his demo's legitimacy. (1) (2) (3) Matt then posted three 15 second clips of the track to his Instagram. These clips were DMCA claimed by Warner and Matt was threatened with potential legal action if he continued copyright violations. However, fans downloaded these clips before they were taken down. (1) (2) Afterwards, Matt was asked via text conversations by his Revenir bandmate u/dansplayslol11 after hearing the track if he still intended on leaking it. Matt explained that he didn't intend on releasing them being content as the apparent sole owner of the demo.
Manhattan Demos aka A-Demos - In 2013 the band had stated in an interview Sister to Sleep's studio recording existed on the "Manhattan Demos" or "A-Demos" as Ray called them that also contained demo material later released on LOTMS. Screenshots of other production tracklists around this time have also been leaked and released by several sources including Revenge producer Howard Benson. (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6)
I'm Not Okay (I Promise) Demo - A 1 minute 4 second Clip of an I'm Not Okay demo uploaded by the YouTube channel AJ Serna in 2012 which contains the line "And never mind the drugs you took" instead of Revenge's release version "The photographs your boyfriend took" with notably worse recording quality. This lyric was likely remnants from when the song served as the conclusion to the album with a spoken word outro by Daryl Palumbo \Of Glassjaw, Head Automatica] and is more in-line with) early production takes of the song.
Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge Instrumentals - Instrumental versions of all 13 original Revenge tracks can be heard as backing tracks for the duration of LOTMS. Never released as a stand-alone instrumental promotional album unlike TBP.
Someone Out There Loves You - Released as a live performance on the official TBPID DVD as Track 30 with a live video. Unofficially titled 'Stay' by fans before its official title was revealed by Gerard on Twitter. Frank revealed in an interview with The Music that the song had a studio demo but "lyrical reservations" prevented its release.
MCRBlog 09' Demos - Throughout 2009, the band would post an occasional series titled 'Practice Cam' where they'd take photos and videos of whiteboards containing song titles. Fans like Cassie the Venomous were able to decipher some of these titles, and later corroborate them with at-the-time newly released live performances. (What was initially titled 'Siren Song' as a live performance eventually released as 'AMBULANCE', ect.) However, some of these teased titles never received accompanying live material. These include:
"Still Alive" \Also detailed in) this interview.\) "Teenage Girl" "Pretty [..?]" "Monster Jam" \This could be in reference to the video game 'Monster Jam: Masters of Mayhem' of which 'I'm Not Ok)' appeared as an in-game track).\)
Hell Hath No Fury - This track was apparently credited to My Chemical Romance (1) (2) for 2012's The Man With The Iron Fists but never appeared on the movie's soundtrack. It's theorized this track midway through the film is a snippet of the track.
The Paper Kingdom - Proceeding DD's touring cycle, the My Chemical Romance began work on their 5th studio record before scrapping the album due to burnout, depression and unhealthy habits. (1) (2) Some of this material was likely posted by a user named Excalibur and sold for $10k+ on the leaked music website Leaked.cx in late September 2022. Snippets of these tracks with added auditory watermarks were provided by the leaker for legitimacy from tracks with the filenames "Dark Cloud", "Witch" and "Wake Up!". However, these clips were taken down by Warner both on leaked.cx and on other sites' reposts, likely validating the leak's legitimacy. One track recognized by Warner's automatic content ID system was entitled "Paper Swords" by My Chemical Romance.
The Foundations of Decay Sessions - According to comments by Excalibur made under leaked.cxs TPK leak, they also possessed demo sessions for the My Chemical Romance's 2022 release The Foundations of Decay. It was unclear whether these sessions were also purchased and vaulted alongside TPK's leak by the same or another buyer.

Welcome to the Black Parade (Steve Aoki 10th Anniversary Remix) - Remix of Welcome to the Black Parade by Steve Aoki for TBP's 10th Anniversary.
... Specific thanks to u/mj2000p, u/Tongara, u/danplayslol11, SpaceyRaygun and Party in the affiliated My Chemical Romance Discord for previous edits. To see the edits check out my original post.
Please do not harass or beg band members or those affiliated with the band for unreleased material. Archival efforts are important but many of these songs fall under copyright and/or hold great personal value. Be respectful in reaching out to potential leads.
If anyone has better sources, anything else to correct or add I'd love to add to what I have and will credit.
Thanks for all the help! <3 Happy 20 years to Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge! :3

2024.06.08 21:09 SanderSo47 Directors at the Box Office: Ang Lee

Directors at the Box Office: Ang Lee
https://preview.redd.it/3ey3xk1cce5d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=013619527a9526a4c1a28fce38d2b1320c6e7192
Here's a new edition of "Directors at the Box Office", which seeks to explore the directors' trajectory at the box office and analyze their hits and bombs. I already talked about a few, and as I promised, it's Ang Lee's turn.
Lee's father, a respect principal, was hoping that his son would become a professor. But he was disappointed when his son failed his high school exam twice, forcing him to attend a less privileged university. Seeing Ingmar Bergman's film The Virgin Spring was a formative experience for him. After finishing his mandatory military service, he moved to the United States to complete his studies. He wanted to become an actor, but his struggle with English made him move into directing. After finally meeting a few contacts in the industry, he started working as a director.
From a box office perspective, how reliable was he to deliver a box office hit?
That's the point of this post. To analyze his career.

Pushing Hands (1991)

His directorial debut. It stars Sihung Lung, Lai Wang, Bo Z. Wang, Deb Snyder and Haan Lee. It follows a Chinese tai chi master living in New York, who struggles to find his place in the world. The film shows the contrast between traditional Chinese ideas of Confucian relationships within a family and the much more informal Western emphasis on the individual.
Lee graduated from New York University Tisch School of the Arts in 1984, but had failed to find career opportunities since, working almost full-time as a house-father. During the intermediate six years, he became interested in martial arts, specifically tai chi, after reading the wuxia novel Jianghu qixia zhuan. This motivated him to write a screenplay, which brought the attention of Hsu Li-kong, a recently promoted senior manager in a major studio who had a strong interest in Lee's unique style and freshness. He invited Lee to make his directorial debut.
It had a very limited release, and it was reported that it made just $152,322 domestically. But it received acclaim in the United States and Taiwan. And that allowed Lee to finally get a chance to expand his horizon.
  • Budget: N/A.
  • Domestic gross: $152,322.
  • Worldwide gross: $152,322.

The Wedding Banquet (2023)

"You are cordially invited to a wedding where everybody wants to kiss the bride... except the groom."
His second film. The film stars Gua Ah-leh, Lung Sihung, May Chin, Winston Chao and Mitchell Lichtenstein. The story concerns a bisexual Taiwanese immigrant man who marries a mainland Chinese woman to placate his parents and get her a green card. His plan backfires when his parents arrive in the United States to plan his wedding banquet and he has to hide the truth of his gay partner.
Neil Peng approached Lee with the idea in 1986 by revealing to Lee that one of their mutual friends had moved to the United States and was in a same-sex relationship without the knowledge of the man's parents. Lee and Peng began writing the screenplay two years later and were soon joined by James Schamus. Schamus wrote that the film was "first drafted in Chinese, then translated into English, re-written in English, translated back into Chinese, and eventually subtitled in Chinese and English and a dozen other languages."
The film was critically acclaimed, and became a sleeper hit, earning $23.6 million against a budget of just $1 million. Lee was on the rise.
  • Budget: $1,000,000.
  • Domestic gross: $6,933,459.
  • Worldwide gross: $23,633,459.

Eat Drink Man Woman (1994)

"It's hard to tell where sex stops and food begins."
His third film. It stars Sihung Lung, Wang Yu-wen, Wu Chien-lien, and Yang Kuei-mei. It follows four members of the Zhu family as they navigate the challenges of love, life, tradition and family. This film deals with the transition from tradition to modernity. It is Lee's first (and to date, only film) to be shot entirely in his native Taiwan.
Like his previous films, another critical and commercial success. Lee quickly made himself a household name.
  • Budget: N/A.
  • Domestic gross: $7,294,403.
  • Worldwide gross: $24,294,403.

Sense and Sensibility (1995)

"Lose your heart and come to your senses."
His fourth film. Based on the novel by Jane Austen, and it stars Emma Thompson (who also wrote the screenplay), Kate Winslet, Hugh Grant and Alan Rickman. The story follows the Dashwood sisters, members of a wealthy English family of landed gentry, as they must deal with circumstances of sudden destitution. They are forced to seek financial security through marriage.
In 1989, producer Lindsay Doran suggested adapting the novel to her colleagues. She was a lifelong fan of the novel, and vowed to make a film adaptation if she ever made it into the industry. Looking for a writer, Doran read screenplays by English and American writers until she came across a series of comedic skits, often in period settings, that actress Emma Thompson had written and decided that that was the direction she wanted for the film. As they were working on the film Dead Again, Doran hired Thompson to write the film, even though she never wrote a feature-length film before.
Thompson spent five years writing and revising the screenplay, both during and between shooting other films. Believing the novel's language to be "far more arcane than in [Austen's] later books," Thompson sought to simplify the dialogue while retaining the "elegance and wit of the original." Despite Doran's confidence, studios were reluctant to pick up the film, as Thompson never wrote a film. Columbia Pictures executive Amy Pascal supported Thompson's work and agreed to sign as the producer and distributor.
In 1993, Lee was hired to direct, basically for his work in The Wedding Banquet. Even though he was not familiar with Jane Austen, Doran felt that Lee's films, which depicted complex family relationships amidst a social comedy context, were a good fit with Austen's storylines. Viewing it as a "director for hire" job, Lee spent six months in preparing for the film, as it would have his largest budget ($16 million) by that point. Doran and Columbia asked Thompson to play Elinor herself.
The film received widespread critical acclaim, and was included on more than a hundred top-ten of the year lists, as well as one of the best Austen adaptations. It was a huge box office hit, earning $134 million worldwide. It received 7 Oscar nominations, including Best Picture and Best Actress. Thompson won Best Adapted Screenplay, making her the only person to have won an Oscar for both her writing and acting (she won Best Actress two years prior). However, Lee was not nominated for Best Director, a decision that was criticized by many as Hollywood's racism against Lee and Chinese cinema in general. Lee sought to avoid turning his omission into a scandal and specifically asked the Taiwan state media not to make it a "national issue", explaining that he endured more pressure when forced to act as his country's representative.
  • Budget: $16,000,000.
  • Domestic gross: $43,182,776.
  • Worldwide gross: $134,582,776.

The Ice Storm (1997)

"The American Dream was over. But the hangover was just beginning."
His fifth film. Based on the novel by Rick Moody, it stars Kevin Kline, Joan Allen, Tobey Maguire, Christina Ricci, Elijah Wood, Katie Holmes, Glenn Fitzgerald, Jamey Sheridan and Sigourney Weaver. Set during Thanksgiving 1973, it follows two dysfunctional New Canaan, Connecticut, upper-class families who are trying to deal with tumultuous social changes of the early 1970s, and their escapism through alcohol, adultery and sexual experimentation.
The film ended Lee's winning streak at the box office, but it was still critically acclaimed.
  • Budget: $18,000,000.
  • Domestic gross: $8,038,061.
  • Worldwide gross: $16,011,975.

Ride with the Devil (1999)

"In a no-man's land between North and South, you didn't fight for the blue or grey, you fought for your friends and your family."
His sixth film. Based on the novel Woe to Live On by Daniel Woodrell, it stars Tobey Maguire, Skeet Ulrich, Jeffrey Wright, Jewel, Simon Baker, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, James Caviezel, Thomas Guiry and Jonathan Brandis. Set during the American Civil War, it follows a group of men who join the First Missouri Irregulars, also known as the Bushwhackers — guerrilla units loyal to pro-Confederacy units of the state — and their war against Northern Jayhawkers allied with the Union army.
Despite commanding a $38 million budget, the film had a very limited three-day run, making less than $1 million. It also received mixed reviews from critics.
  • Budget: $38,000,000.
  • Domestic gross: $635,096.
  • Worldwide gross: $635,096.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000)

"A timeless story of strength, secrets, and two warriors who would never surrender."
His seventh film. Based on the Chinese novel serialized between 1941 and 1942 by Wang Dulu, it stars Chow Yun-fat, Michelle Yeoh, Zhang Ziyi, and Chang Chen. Master Li Mu Bai, a warrior, is about to retire and gives his sword to his lover Yu Shu Lien to keep it safe. However, the sword is stolen and now an embittered Li embarks on a mission to find it.
The stunt work was mostly performed by the actors themselves and Ang Lee stated in an interview that computers were used "only to remove the safety wires that held the actors" aloft. "Most of the time you can see their faces," he added. "That's really them in the trees." The film specifically targeted Western audiences rather than the domestic audiences who were already used to Wuxia films. As a result, high-quality English subtitles were needed. Ang Lee, who was educated in the West, personally edited the subtitles to ensure they were satisfactory for Western audiences.
Whatever were the expectations for this, the film exceeded them by a large margin. After a limited release, it earned $8 million in its first wide domestic opening weekend. But the crazy thing was how insane were its legs; it didn't hit a sub $4 million weekend until its 12th wide weekend, and it even increased from some weekends. It closed with a colossal $128 million domestically, becoming the highest foreign-language film in United States, a record it still keeps, and it's twice as much as the second place, Life Is Beautiful. Worldwide, it earned $213.9 million worldwide, becoming a worldwide phenomenon and Lee's highest grossing film.
The film was widely acclaimed across the world, hailed as one of the greatest films of the century. The film led to a boost in popularity of Chinese wuxia films in the Western world, where they were previously little known, and led to films such as Hero and House of Flying Daggers, both directed by Zhang Yimou, being marketed towards Western audiences. It received 10 Oscar nominations (the most for a foreign film), including Best Picture and Best Director for Lee. It won four: Best Foreign Language Film, Best Art Direction, Best Original Score, and Best Cinematography. To this day, one of the most iconic foreign titles. Lee made history.
  • Budget: $17,000,000.
  • Domestic gross: $128,530,421.
  • Worldwide gross: $213,978,518.

Hulk (2003)

"Unleash the fury."
His eighth film. Based on the Marvel Comics character created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, it stars Eric Bana, Jennifer Connelly, Sam Elliott, Josh Lucas, and Nick Nolte. The film explores Bruce Banner's origins. After a lab accident involving gamma radiation, he transforms into a giant green-skinned humanoid with superhuman strength known as the Hulk whenever stressed or emotionally provoked. The United States military pursues him, and he clashes with his biological father, who has dark plans for his son.
Since 1990, Avi Arad and Gale Ann Hurd were working on a Hulk film, but Universal was struggling in finding the right script. Hurd brought her husband Jonathan Hensleigh as co-producer the following year, and Universal hired Industrial Light & Magic to create the Hulk with computer-generated imagery. Joe Johnston was hired as director, but he eventually left to work on another film, while Zak Penn was brought to rewrite. Hensleigh subsequently rewrote the script with J. J. Abrams. Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski were also brought on board to rewrite, with Hensleigh deciding to direct the film himself despite not having directed before. By 1998, Universal put the film on hiatus due to its escalating $100 million budget and worries of Hensleigh directing his first film. $20 million was already spent on script development, computer animation, and prosthetics work. Hensleigh immediately went to rewrite the script to reduce the budget.
In 2001, Lee and his colleague James Schamus signed for the project, after Lee chose not to direct Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines. He was dissatisfied with the script and commissioned Schamus for a rewrite, merging Banner's father with the Absorbing Man. Lee cited influences from King Kong, Frankenstein, Jekyll and Hyde, Beauty and the Beast, Faust, and Greek mythology to interpret the story. Schamus said he had found the storyline that introduced Brian Banner, allowing Lee to write a drama that again explored father-son themes. Schamus admitted to feeling pressure after the release of Spider-Man.
Eric Bana commented that the shoot was "Ridiculously serious... a silent set, morbid in a lot of ways." Lee told him that he was shooting a Greek tragedy, and that he would be making a "whole other movie" about the Hulk at Industrial Light & Magic. An example of Lee's arthouse approach to the film was taking Bana to watch a bare-knuckle boxing match. Bana would later disfavorably reflect on his experience making the film as the majority of the time he was working indoors while the rest of the cast interacted with a CGI recreation of the Hulk, somewhat limiting his screen time.
After the colossal success of Spider-Man, Universal mounted an extensive marketing campaign, which also highlighted Ang Lee's involvement. The film opened with a huge $62.1 million in its first weekend, the biggest June debut and the 16th biggest ever. However, the film had absolutely no legs at the box office. In its second weekend, it dropped a colossal 69.7%, which was the biggest for a film that opened above $20 million. In its third weekend, it fell another steep 56.3% and it kept falling until it left theaters, becoming the largest opener not to earn $150 million. It closed with $132 million domestically and $245 million worldwide. Good enough to be the 15th highest grossing film of the year and Lee's highest grossing film, but not a hit given its $137 million budget.
If Spider-Man was an immediate crowd-pleaser, Hulk was the exact opposite. It received polarizing reviews; while its ambition and style was praised, a lot criticized its CGI and very limited action ("too much talking and not enough smashing"). In subsequent years, some have praised the film as an ambitious film that deviated from the superhero formula, although it's still not widely considered as a beloved film. Lee admitted the challenges of the film, but stood proud of the film and its fans.
  • Budget: $137,000,000.
  • Domestic gross: $132,177,234.
  • Worldwide gross: $245,285,165.

Brokeback Mountain (2005)

"Love is a force of nature."
His ninth film. Based on the short story by Annie Proulx, it stars Heath Ledger, Jake Gyllenhaal, Anne Hathaway, Michelle Williams and Randy Quaid. Its plot depicts the complex romantic relationship between two American cowboys, Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist, in the American West from 1963 to 1983.
Screenwriter Diana Ossana discovered Annie Proulx's short story in October 1997, just days after its publication. She convinced writing partner Larry McMurtry to read it, who thought it was a "masterpiece". The pair asked Proulx if they could adapt it into a film screenplay; although she did not think that the story would work as a film, she agreed. The big challenge wasn't the script, it was about getting the film made in the first place.
Gus Van Sant attempted to make the film, hoping to cast Matt Damon and Joaquin Phoenix as Ennis and Jack, respectively. He also considered Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Ryan Phillippe and Josh Hartnett. Damon, who previously worked with Van Sant on Good Will Hunting, told the director, "Gus, I did a gay movie (The Talented Mr. Ripley), then a cowboy movie (All the Pretty Horses). I can't follow it up with a gay-cowboy movie!"
James Schamus, who was now the CEO of Focus Features, optioned the film rights in 2001. Pedro Almodovar was approached, but he felt he couldn't get his artistic freedom respected. At Ossana's request, Schamus showed the story and screenplay to Lee. Lee decided instead to make Hulk, and that film's experience left him exhausted, to the point that he considered retiring. When he was offered Brokeback, he changed his mind and agreed to direct. He was particularly drawn to the authentic rural American life and repression depicted in the story.
Ossana and McMurty suggested Heath Ledger, but the film studio thought he was not masculine enough. Regardless, Ledger got the script, who thought it was "beautiful" and put himself forward. Gyllenhaal reacted to the script positively and signed on for the role; he also did not want to miss the opportunity working with Lee and friend Ledger. Lee met with Mark Wahlberg for a role in the film, but Wahlberg declined as he was "creeped out" by the script. Gyllenhaal admired Ledger and described him as "way beyond his years as a human". Other actors were considered for the leads but Lee said they were too afraid to take on the roles.
You have to consider that while the world progressed a lot in the past years, 2005 was a very different era, so a film like Brokeback Mountain had a tough hill to climb. Some countries refused to play the film, while others censored it. LGBT films weren't big at the time, so it felt like there wouldn't be a big audience here.
And they were proven wrong.
The film debuted with $547,425 in 5 theaters, a huge $109,485 per-theater average. It had fantastic legs, eventually closing with a huge $83 million domestically. But the big surprise is that it was bigger overseas; it made $178 million worldwide, becoming Focus Features' highest grossing film. The film received universal acclaim on its release, touted as one of the greatest films of the century. It received 10 Oscar nominations, including Best Picture. It won three: Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Original Score. In a shocking decision, it lost Best Picture to Crash, a decision that has been reviled ever since. We'd like to say it's a polarizing decision... but let's face it, there are no Crash fans nowadays. Or at least, none that prefer that to Brokeback.
But at the end of the day, it doesn't matter; Brokeback may not have won the Oscar, but it won over the general public.
It wasn't the first LGBT film, not even close. But it might have been the most influential and a huge landmark.
  • Budget: $14,000,000.
  • Domestic gross: $83,043,761.
  • Worldwide gross: $178,064,141.

Lust, Caution (2007)

"The trap is set."
His tenth film. Based on the novella by Eileen Chang, it stars Tony Leung Chiu-wai, Tang Wei, Anupam Kher, Joan Chen, Wang Leehom and Shyam Pathak. The film is set in Hong Kong in 1938 and in Shanghai in 1942, when the city was occupied by the Imperial Japanese Army and ruled by the puppet government led by Wang Jingwei. The film depicts a group of Chinese university students from The University of Hong Kong who plot to assassinate a high-ranking special agent and recruiter working for the puppet government by luring him into a honey trap.
The actors who played university classmates, spent six months of preproduction in Hong Kong just to get into character and understand the period before filming. During this period the group of actors, including Tang Wei and Wang Leehom became very close friends. Both Tang Wei and Tony Leung Chiu-wai were asked whether the sex scenes in the movie were unsimulated. Tang Wei responded, "In the movie, we are just doing what we should do to have a baby." As for Tony Leung, he responded, "When the bodies collide with each other, it is indeed like a fake show!" The film was rated NC-17 in North America for its explicit sex scenes, and Lee made it clear he would not re-cut the film. Despite that, the version released in China was cut by about seven minutes (by Lee himself) to make it suitable for younger audiences, since China has no rating system.
The film won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival, where it received critical acclaim. Due to the rating, it only earned $4 million domestically. But it was much bigger overseas, where it earned $67 million worldwide, becoming the highest grossing NC-17 film (a record it still keeps).
  • Budget: $15,000,000.
  • Domestic gross: $4,604,982.
  • Worldwide gross: $67,091,915.

Taking Woodstock (2009)

"Take the trip."
His 11th film. Based on the memoir by Elliot Tiber and Tom Monte, it stars Demetri Martin, Paul Dano, Dan Fogler, Henry Goodman, Jonathan Groff, Emile Hirsch, Eugene Levy, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Imelda Staunton and Liev Schreiber. Elliot's parents own a motel in Catskills, New York. To overcome the family's financial crisis, Elliot offers the organisers of the Woodstock music and art festival boarding and lodging in the motel.
The film received mixed reviews, and bombed at the box office.
  • Budget: $30,000,000.
  • Domestic gross: $7,460,204.
  • Worldwide gross: $9,975,737.

Life of Pi (2012)

"Don't lose hope."
His 12th film. Based on the novel by Yann Martel, it stars Suraj Sharma, Irrfan Khan, Tabu, Rafe Spall, Gérard Depardieu and Adil Hussain. The storyline revolves around two survivors of a shipwreck who are on a lifeboat stranded in the Pacific Ocean for 227 days. One is a sixteen-year-old Indian boy named Pi Patel and the other is a ferocious Bengal tiger named Richard Parker.
Fox 2000 Pictures executive Elizabeth Gabler acquired the film rights in February 2003. M. Night Shyamalan was attached to direct, and he was expected to film it after The Village. But he dropped to instead make Lady in the Water, "I was hesitant [to direct] because the book has kind of a twist ending. And I was concerned that as soon as you put my name on it, everybody would have a different experience." Other directors considered were Alfonso Cuarón and Jean-Pierre Jeunet, both of which declined.
In 2009, Lee was hired, but the film was stuck in development hell when he asked for a $120 million budget. But the revival of 3-D motivated Fox in greenlighting the film under Lee's terms. As Lee started casting, one of the actors involved was Tobey Maguire, who would play a reporter. But it was later reported that Lee chose to cut his scenes, feeling he wanted to emphasize an entirely international cast. His scenes were re-shot with Rafe Spall.
Fox mounted an extensive marketing campaign selling the film as "the next Avatar" in terms of visuals and 3-D. And it fucking killed it at the box office. It earned $124.9 million domestically, which was considered a soft performance. But the real money was in the rest of the world; the film broke records in countries like China, United Kingdom, India and Mexico. It earned a colossal $609 million worldwide, easily becoming Lee's highest grossing film. An absolutely insane performance.
The film also received critical acclaim, praised for its CGI and 3-D. It received 11 Oscar nominations, including Best Picture. And it won four: Best Cinematography, Best Visual Effects, Best Original Score, and then Lee himself won his second Oscar for Best Director, becoming the first Asian to win the award twice. And just like that, he cemented himself as one of the greatest filmmakers of our era. And here's how he celebrated it; going to In-N-Out.
  • Budget: $120,000,000.
  • Domestic gross: $124,987,023.
  • Worldwide gross: $609,016,565.

Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk (2016)

"To walk the path of a hero, you have to see how it all began."
His 13th film. Based on the novel by Ben Fountain, it stars Joe Alwyn, Garrett Hedlund, Kristen Stewart, Vin Diesel, Steve Martin, and Chris Tucker. After a horrifying battle in Iraq, Private Billy Lynn and his fellow comrades are brought home for a victory tour. Soon, he recollects the harsh realities of the war and struggles to cope with life.
The film used an unprecedented shooting and projection frame rate of 120 frames per second in 3D at 4K UHD resolution, which Lee terms the "whole shebang". It is the first feature film ever to be shot in such a high frame rate, over twice the previous record (Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, shot at 48 fps) and five times the standard speed of 24 fps. Lee undertook such a bold step after reading the book since he wanted the film to be an "immersive" and "realistic" experience of the reality and emotional journey of soldiers.
Due to the complexity involved in shooting at a very high frame rate, Lee could not afford to do many takes even for a single scene. Every shot was difficult and at the same time precious. He would rehearse every scene beforehand and would conduct regular morning meetings with the key crew members to highlight things they needed to be alert on. Shooting close-up shots in 3D with such high resolution meant the cast could not wear make-up and could not deliver less-than-authentic performances. Since no make-up was allowed, make-up artist Luisa Abel spent months of preparation on their skin tones. Throughout filming, the production team had to rethink everything, including different approaches to lighting as the camera needed extra lights due to the higher frame rates.
Due to the complexity of the film's unprecedented high frame rate and the cost of installing equipment capable of projecting the film in its intended format, only five theaters globally were equipped to show it at its highest resolution and maximum frame rate: two in the United States (one at a theater in New York City's AMC Lincoln Square where the film had its world premiere and the other in Los Angeles's the ArcLight Hollywood), and one theater each in Taipei, Beijing, and Shanghai.
The film opened in 2 theaters (New York City's AMC Lincoln Square and Los Angeles's the ArcLight Hollywood's Cinerama Dome), which were the only ones in the country to play the film at 120fps and the ticket prices at both locations running $20 or higher. It made a pretty great $114,129, which made for a fantastic $57,064 per-theater average (the third best of the year). But when it hit wide release, the film was dead on arrival. It made just $901,062 in 1,176 theaters, which was one of the worst wide debuts ever. And then, despite having its second weekend fall on Thanksgiving, it collapsed by 77.3%. It closed after just 3 weeks with only $1.7 million domestically. It fared better overseas, where China made colossal $23.7 million. Worldwide, it made just $30.9 million, making it a box office flop. Reviews were mixed, and people were polarized over the high-frame rate; some deemed it immersive and impressive, while others found it distracting and flat.
  • Budget: $30,000,000.
  • Domestic gross: $1,738,477.
  • Worldwide gross: $30,930,984.

Gemini Man (2019)

"Who will save you from yourself?"
His 14th film. It stars Will Smith, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Clive Owen and Benedict Wong. The film follows a retiring Force Recon Marine scout sniper who is targeted by a much younger clone of himself while on the run from a corrupt private military company.
In 1997, Darren Lemke sold his pitch for Gemini Man after impressing Don Murphy with an unproduced spec script. Warner Bros. Pictures pursued the project, but Walt Disney Pictures ultimately won out and Tony Scott would become attached to direct. Complications soon arose when the studio were planning how to make the film. The producers toyed with the idea of an actor play both roles through the use of visual effects, but Scott moved on from the film before any progress could be made.
The project was stuck in development hell, and saw many actors considered, such as Mel Gibson, Harrison Ford, Chris O'Donnell, Nicolas Cage, Sean Connery, Clint Eastwood and Jon Voight. Many directors were also considered, before Lee finally signed in 2017, with Smith also joining. Like his previous film, the film was shot digitally at an extra-high frame rate of 120 frames per second (fps), modified for 3D, this time on modified ARRI Alexa cameras mounted on STEREOTEC 3D Rigs.
Again, due to the requirements needed, only 14 theaters in North America could show the film at a 120fps 2K 3D high-frame rate (two in Los Angeles, two in Chicago, and one each in Miami, Orlando, New Orleans, Denver, New York, San Francisco, Atlanta, Las Vegas, Baltimore and Houston). Even then, the film was shot at 120fps 4K 3D, which means no theater showed its intended vision. Lee said that 120fps 2K 3D felt like the necessary avenue to make “Junior,” Smith’s digital avatar, a soulful character who could also appear to beat the living crap out of a real actor in the film’s many fight sequences.
The film received negative reviews, particularly for its CGI and story. And like his previous film, the high-frame rate received polarizing reactions. Despite the presence of a big star like Will Smith, the film flopped with just $173 million worldwide, against its $138 million budget, and losing an estimated $111 million for Paramount. Lee's attempt at high-frame rate was just not clicking with the public.
  • Budget: $138,000,000.
  • Domestic gross: $48,546,770.
  • Worldwide gross: $173,469,516.

The Future

His next film, as confirmed in November 2022, is a Bruce Lee biopic. The lead actor will be Mason Lee, Ang's son. And he suggested he's not done with the 120fps high-frame rate, claiming he would continue using it in his next film for action sequences.

Across 14 films, he has made $1,727,122,572 worldwide. That's $123,365,898 per film.

The Verdict

Despite his past two films getting two of the worst reviews in his career, Lee has proved himself to be a very reliable director.
Something impressive about him is the versatility in his resume. A comic book film, a survival film, a LGBT film, a wuxia film, a sci-fi film, a post-war film, a Jane Austen film, a noir film, an erotic NC-17 thriller, a Western, and some romantic comedies. Even if some don't fully work, there's still some good and interesting aspects in him. And of course, the first Asian director to win 2 Oscars for Best Director. So if he wants to continue with the controversial 120fps high-frame rate, let him cook. Hopefully in more and more theaters worldwide.
Hope you liked this edition. You can find this and more in the wiki for this section.
The next director will be Zack Snyder. Oh boy. This is where the fun begins.
I asked you to choose who else should be in the run and the comment with the most upvotes would be chosen. Well, we'll later talk about... John McTiernan and Rob Reiner. Whaaaaat? Two posts for the price of one? You're welcome! It was a very tight race, and it was tough to choose one or the other. The former has the dishonor of going to director jail and real jail, while the latter had an incredible run before completely crashing with one of Roger Ebert's most hated films.
This is the schedule for the following four:
Week Director Reasoning
June 10-16 Zack Snyder RIP Inbox.
June 17-23 Tony Scott Action films have not been the same ever since his death.
June 24-30 Roland Emmerich The King of disaster films.
July 1-7 John McTiernan & Rob Reiner The rise and fall of two once-great directors.
Who should be next after McTiernan and Reiner? That's up to you.

In my quest for a realistic Halloween prop, I stumbled upon the Halloween Ends Knife Prop. This prop was an absolute game-changer, as it brought a touch of authenticity to my costume. Its molded design, based on the exact knife featured in the film, added a layer of realism that I hadn't seen before in a fake knife.
The weathered details on the prop added an extra layer of realism and a sense of history, making it stand out from other plastic props in the market. While I appreciated the hand-wash-only maintenance, it felt like a minor inconvenience compared to the overall design and quality of the product.
Despite its slightly smaller dimensions compared to the realism I aspired for, the prop still managed to convey the right image, and it remained sturdy and reliable throughout the season. My friends and family couldn't tell the difference, and I left a lasting impression on them.
While there were a few minor drawbacks, such as the plastic texture and the limited availability of licensed props, these were outweighed by the prop's design, build, and the excitement it brought to my Halloween experience. Overall, the Halloween Ends Knife Prop proved to be a worthwhile investment, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking to add a touch of realism to their costume this Halloween.

I've always been a fan of horror movies, and this Halloween Kills Butcher Knife Prop is no exception. The hyper-realistic paint job and intricate details really make it stand out - it's almost like holding a real weapon.
However, this prop can be a bit intimidating, so be prepared if you have kids around. Despite not being suitable for actual use, it makes for a great conversation starter and adds a creepy touch to your Halloween decorations.
Just remember, it's all for show - and don't forget to hand wash it! .

Recently, I stumbled upon Smiffy's Bloodied Knife Adult Prop. As a fan of Halloween, I couldn't resist giving it a try. The first thing I noticed was its impressive 42cm length and silver, skull and crossbones handle. The red-colored blood on the blade added an extra touch of authenticity to the prop.
Despite the prop's intricate design, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was amiss with it. During my first use, the blade shattered, rendering it unusable. Although I can appreciate the product's unique appearance, its durability left a lot to be desired.
Smiffy's is known for their extensive history and commitment to providing top-notch costumes, wigs, and accessories. However, their Bloodied Knife Adult Prop fell short of expectations. A more reliable and sturdy build would have made this prop a true showstopper.

I was pleasantly surprised by the Halloween 1978 Foam Butcher Knife Prop. This prop knife is made from high-quality polyurethane foam, making it surprisingly sturdy and realistic in feel.
The stainless-steel finish and wood-finished hilt look almost too good to be true, which adds an intimidating aura to the prop. It stands at 17½ inches from hilt to point, making it almost life-sized, and the packaged product includes an illustrated cardboard, adding to the authenticity.
Overall, this foam butcher knife prop is a great addition to any Halloween costume or decoration, and I would definitely recommend it to others looking for a realistic-looking prop knife.

Imagine you're at a Halloween party, dressed to the nines in spooky attire. The night is filled with chilling sounds of mysterious creatures lurking in the dark corners, and it feels like the living dead is just around the corner. As the tension builds, you pull out the Deluxe Butcher Knife with Sound - it's not only a replica of an old-fashioned meat cleaver, but it also has a blood-curdling sound attached to it.
The Deluxe Butcher Knife with Sound is a perfect addition to any Halloween decoration. It's made with meticulous attention to detail, giving it a realistic feel. Simply press the button on the handle, and the knife suddenly springs to life, with an eerie, blood-curdling sound that sends shivers down your spine. Don't worry, the sound doesn't last too long - just enough to give you a spine-tingling chill.
The knife measures 19 inches in length, 14 inches in width, and just 4 inches high. It's easy to handle and maneuver, making it a great accessory for scare tactics and party games. And with its convenient size, you can take it anywhere without worrying about storage.
However, despite its realistic appearance and spine-tingling sound, the knife has a small flaw. You have to hold it loosely in your hand, so your fingers aren't covering the speaker. While it's not a deal-breaker, it might be a minor inconvenience for some users.
Overall, the Deluxe Butcher Knife with Sound is a fun and unique addition to any Halloween party. Its realistic look, combined with its blood-curdling sound, makes it a must-have for anyone looking to add a touch of suspense and excitement to their costume.

https://preview.redd.it/q21q994d9a5d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9dc988949832d46a5e48f4c4d3d522d6d9500b12
As an avid cosplayer, I've always been on the lookout for realistic and high-quality accessories to elevate my costumes. When I stumbled upon this Seasons Realistic Machete Knife Prop, I knew it was something I just had to have in my collection.
What caught my attention at first was the knight's dream of having a 26-inch machete at his disposal. Not only is it a size that would fulfill that wish, but it is also made of lightweight and sturdy plastic – perfect for my costume-making needs.
Holding the machete, it felt more accurate and authentic than I expected. Its realistic appearance was undoubtedly a major part of my satisfaction with the product. The only downside I encountered was that, while the blade was non-sharp, it didn't exactly feel sturdy when handling.
One thing I quickly discovered was its versatility. This machete was the missing piece I needed, making my Davy Crockett costume that much more convincing. But this prop proved to be so much more than just a weapon for my cosplay endeavors – it could also easily pass as a theater prop or even a prop for role-playing and dress-up events.
Overall, this unique fake knife from Seasons has proven to be a game-changer for my cosplays. Its realistic appearance and the right balance of lightness and sturdiness make it an impressive accessory, perfect for creating the ultimate costume.

I recently stumbled upon the Skeleteen Kitchen Knife Costume Prop, and it has been a fun addition to my home decor. The 12-inch fake toy knife has a vividly realistic looking blade and a wood-like handle, making it perfect for setting up a spooky atmosphere.

As someone who loves horror movies and Halloween costumes, I was excited to try out the Bleeding Machete Prop. The 21" long knife was perfect for adding an unsettling touch to my costume, and the fake blood inside the clear plastic case looked realistic.
However, I noticed that the machete was a bit fragile - it started leaking fake blood after just a day, and I had to be careful not to bump it against anything. Despite the occasional issue, this machete made for a great prop and a fun Halloween accessory for teens and adults alike.

🔗Realistic Foam Machete Prop

​
https://preview.redd.it/8y9wokse9a5d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2bc584d50b5b580590f17490407f913c23a0e57b
When the apocalypse strikes, you'll want a reliable and practical weapon nearby. The Foam Machete Knife from Medieval Collectibles is the perfect choice, making sure you're prepared for anything. With its realistic design and safe foam material, this machete is both functional and visually appealing.
One of the most impressive aspects of this machete is how lightweight it is. Despite weighing next to nothing, its sturdy construction ensures it's easy to handle and wield. Don't let the foam material fool you, though; this machete can hold up to anything the apocalypse throws your way.
Adding to its appeal is the ergonomic handle, designed to give you a comfortable grip. The brown handle with a wood-like finish not only adds to its realistic look but also makes it easy to hold onto in all sorts of situations.
I've tested this Foam Machete Knife in various scenarios, from cosplay events to impromptu zombie survival drills.

🔗Ghost Face Halloween Chef's Knife

​
https://preview.redd.it/rulmg74f9a5d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=27e63247da769dbbd38f6a405053fce8be2f48c7
I've always been a fan of Halloween, and this year, I decided to spice up my costume with a little extra flair. That's when I came across the Graphic Blade Ghost Face Chef Knife - a fantastic addition to any horror enthusiast's attire. This knife truly captures the essence of the iconic Ghost Face character, making it the perfect accessory for any thrill-seeking ghost hunter or movie buff like myself.
One of the most striking features of this kitchen knife is its high-quality design. The attention to detail is truly impressive - from the intricate etching on the blade to the realistic weight and balance in my hand. It adds a level of authenticity that I've never seen before in a prop knife, making it perfect for a convincing costume.
However, while the Ghost Face Chef Knife is undoubtedly a winner in terms of style and design, it does have some drawbacks when it comes to functionality. As a genuine kitchen knife, it's not exactly suited for everyday use, and its sharp edge can be a bit of a nuisance for everyday tasks. But then again, that's not really what this knife is designed for, so it's a trade-off worth making for the sake of a good fright.
All in all, I'm glad I went for the Graphic Blade Ghost Face Chef Knife to enhance my Halloween costume this year. It's definitely a hit with fellow horror fans, and I can't wait to see what other spooky props they have in store in the future!

Buyer's Guide

Welcome to the buyer's guide for fake knives! Fake knives are a great option for training, props, or even as a self-defense tool without the risk of causing serious injury. In this guide, we will discuss important features to consider when purchasing a fake knife, along with general advice on how to choose the right one for your needs.

Material

​
https://preview.redd.it/h2wcibeh9a5d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=145fa902dd6f7887066fa7044e0787e3e12a8b3a
The material used to make a fake knife is a crucial factor to consider. Many fake knives are made from rubber or flexible plastic, while others are made from metal alloys. Metal alloy knives offer a more realistic feel, but they may be harder to handle during training sessions or self-defense scenarios.

Durability

Durability is another important aspect to consider when purchasing a fake knife. A high-quality fake knife should be able to withstand regular use without breaking or wearing down quickly. Rubber or flexible plastic knives tend to be more durable than those made from metal alloys, as they are less likely to chip or crack.

Blade Length

Blade length is another feature to consider when buying a fake knife. Training knives and self-defense knives usually come in various lengths, from short to long. Choose a blade length that suits your needs and abilities, as a longer blade may be harder to control during training or self-defense situations.
​
https://preview.redd.it/e1hb5hlh9a5d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f78fec0338a92383ab4493cb80bbb7237756233e

Handling

Handling and grip are important factors to consider when purchasing a fake knife. A well-designed handle should provide a comfortable grip and enable you to control the knife effectively during training or self-defense scenarios. Look for knives with ergonomic handles that fit your hand comfortably.

Weight

The weight of a fake knife is also an essential factor to consider. Heavier knives may provide a more realistic feel, but they can be more challenging to handle during training or self-defense situations. Opt for a knife that is neither too heavy nor too light, offering a balance of control and realism.

Price

​
https://preview.redd.it/e5f4fmzh9a5d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b00b2206817d8cdd9349a1ed0f16d25f3d1ff07c
Price is another factor to consider when buying a fake knife. High-quality fake knives can be costly, but they are often worth the investment due to their durability and realistic feel. Consider your budget when choosing a fake knife, but be prepared to invest in a high-quality product that will last for years.
In conclusion, when purchasing a fake knife, consider features such as the material, durability, blade length, handling, weight, and price. By taking these factors into account, you will be able to find the perfect fake knife for your training, self-defense needs, or as a prop.

Set 1 : Free , Kill Devil Falls , Roses Are Free > Theme From the Bottom > Axilla > Julius , Bouncing Around the Room , Maze , Bathtub Gin
Set 2 : Down with Disease 1 > Sand -> Nellie Kane , Mike's Song > Makisupa Policeman 2 > Weekapaug Groove , Wading in the Velvet Sea , Also Sprach Zarathustra , Character Zero
Encore : The Oh Kee Pa Ceremony > Suzy Greenberg
1 Unfinished. 2 Keyword was "Sour Diesel."
Jamchart Notes:
Roses Are Free - A very nice melodic jam that turns dark develops as "Roses" proper is winding down.
Julius - Proving again that less is more (at least for "Julius"), Trey's nimble, amped-down playing provides interesting texture, and creates better suspension awaiting the inevitable re-build.
Bathtub Gin - In a bit of a nod to the old, pre-August '93 days, the jam begins with decelerating tempo and downward sloping melodies. At 7:30, the jam shifts into the more familiar, uptempo "modern" "Gin" jam. Cool version. Check out 11/16/91 if you doubt.
Also Sprach Zarathustra - Stellar 3.0 version. Trey's delicate soloing is inspired and fresh and Page fills in all the right gaps. Simply gorgeous.
Show Notes:
Mike teased Sundown in Bathtub Gin. Down with Disease was unfinished. Makisupa's keyword was "Sour Diesel." 2001 contained Sand teases from Fish and Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine and Mike's Song teases from Trey.

Set 2 : Golden Age > Mike's Song > Fast Enough for You > Weekapaug Groove , What's the Use? > Theme From the Bottom > Backwards Down the Number Line > Also Sprach Zarathustra > Harry Hood
Encore : Good Times Bad Times
Jamchart Notes:
Weekapaug Groove - "Golden Age" teases are followed by a nice funky breakdown jam with great Page and Mike. At the end, Trey sustains a note which carries into "What's The Use."
Also Sprach Zarathustra - "Golden Age," "Happy Birthday," and "WTU?" teases worked in perfectly, along with a serious syncopated throwdown, make this one a must hear. Play this to impress others.
Harry Hood - A very solid jam, building from start to end, and thus in good company with 5/6/90, 11/30/95, 2/18/97, 8/8/98, and 11/27/09.
Show Notes:
Weekapaug contained Golden Age teases. Also Sprach Zarathustra contained Golden Age, Happy Birthday and What's the Use? teases. In the soundcheck (which was played on Kevin Shapiro's From the Archives #15(b) show on 7/1/11 from SBIX ), Funky Bitch contained alternate lyrics, Dream On contained a brief Stairway to Heaven tease and "Old Zealand" alternate lyrics, and The Pendulum had Two Princes quotes.

1 No whistling. 2 Debut.
Jamchart Notes:
Runaway Jim - After some "Third Stone From The Sun" (Hendrix) teases from Trey, this one gets out beyond the norm.
Prince Caspian - Debut includes a short instrumental bridge. The ending jam section and closing chords were added in 1996.
Tweezer - Another wacky "type II" version that is worth hearing if you're an aficionado of Phish improv.
Show Notes:
Runaway Jim contained Third Stone from the Sun teases. Reba did not have the whistling ending. This show marked the debut of Prince Caspian. Page teased The Sabre Dance in Tweezer. This gig was originally scheduled for the outdoor Wolf Mountain Amphitheatre in Park City; due to a late spring snowstorm, the day before the show took place it was moved to the indoor Delta Center.

4th: Shane Powers (Panama - 5th)

i have an issue with my penis, im so sorry. the linsanity run ends here!
u/SMC0629:
Shane is a character who I don't think you can replicate. His focus on humor is something people can find overbearing, but most of it is just a joy to watch. He has some of the funniest moments the show has seen, whether intentional or unintentional. However, the main reason I love Shane is his moral and emotional stuff. From his nicotine withdrawls, to his relationship with Aras, to most imporantly, his bond with his son. It makes for to this day, the best family visit the show has ever seen. Shane is incredible, very deserving of endgame.

So of all the people in this Endgame who are in my Personal Top 100, Shane ranks the lowest. I’ve actually lowered on him a little bit since this thing started and if I had no deals attached at all, I’d probably have him cut around the same time I tried to cut Lex. One of my 10/10s with minor criticism. But before I get into that, let’s talk up why Shane’s great: because he’s literally batshit.
I cannot fathom how he passed the psyche test to get on the cast, because there’s so much going on with him to the point of it being overwhelming. Shane going cold turkey with his nicotine withdrawal is an amazing case study that doesn’t feel ethical, but goddammit was it entertaining! Shane slots perfectly into Casaya and his dynamic with literally everyone on that godforsaken tribe (but especially his relationship with Courtney) is perfect. Hell, he’s also got an underrated dynamic with Terry as well and I think gives the guy some very interesting characterization in the endgame. Shane’s batshit energy and “bad vibes” however does get offset by his relationship with his son, which I think is probably one of my favorite loved one visits of all time. Boston helps humanize him in a way that you normally don’t get to see for these “crazy” type of characters and their whole dynamic and the build-up to the loved one visit is probably one of the biggest reasons why Shane not only works, but works perfectly.
The only criticism I think I can give Shane is that sometimes, his bullshit does come across a bit too much. Like, moments where he loses his shit on Courtney and threatens to kill her in her shitty apartment? Feels believable in terms of his loss of sanity. Him losing his shit about “his sitting spot”? Pushing it, but I kinda buy it. But that whole blackberry scene? Honestly, a bit too much, makes the whole character feel a little fake. Like I know he’s doing a bit, but he says it such crazed energy and the edit takes him serious enough that it just rubs me the wrong way. It’s admittedly only a single scene so it doesn’t irk me enough to bring him down from a 10/10, but like Lex and his relationship with Big Tom, it’s just a minor nitpick I have with this otherwise flawless character.
Overall Rank – 87/821

u/Zanthosus:
Shane rides the line of being incredibly chaotic without it ever becoming concerning or worrisome. That’s not to say it never rides that line incredibly close, because there’s definitely points where he can bring a level of discomfort to the season that makes me hesitant to consider him truly great. Even despite that, though, he makes for incredible TV nine times out of ten, so I’m still glad he’s made it to endgame again.

u/Tommyroxs45:
Shane is the soul of Casaya, all of the incredible moments quoted to this day basically all come from Shane. He works so well with the rest of the tribe and how he and the rest of them are somehow able to control the game is baffling but also comedic gold.

u/ninjedi1:
When I was a kid, my bedtime was 8pm. However, because I was a little shit I would usually get out of bed usually about 30 to 50 minutes later and see what my Mom was watching on TV. This would be my first way I would experience Survivor for a while. My first experience were these two guys sitting at this set and one of the guys looked really cool with his beard and funky rainbow shirt. The next key Survivor memory I have is a challenge where they had to swim out and then down to get rings, but one guy drops him to the ocean floor, but then another guy goes down and goes “It was so deep…and I got it!” and that was really cool. I finally got a chance to see more than a couple minutes of an episode where I got to see most of this one episode where one team only had two people left on it, and I thought that they must stink at the game, and I was right cause they lost both challenges. Then my Mom started letting me watch the first half of the episodes about the jury phase of Guatemala, where I was rooting for Rafe cause I thought his name was cool. But finally, I got to experience my first real season right from the start, Survivor Panama Exile Island. Naturally, I needed to pick my favorite to root for in the season, and when I saw this one guy right at the start with hair that I thought looked cool and saw his name, I decided “Him. He’s my favorite”.
Shane Powers (5th Place, Panama)
Shane powers is my favorite survivor player of all time ever since I first saw him as a kid. I was worried on rewatch that I only liked him because I had nostalgia goggles on, but on rewatches I love him even more. The first episode actually greatly sets up who Shane is and what his story is going to be, which is actually pretty incredible considering all screen time is split between 4 teams, and La Mina wins immunity so they aren’t nearly as important for the focus of the first episode. He complains about how all his tribe wants to do is work and wants to call people out for being moronic. He also talks about how he just stopped smoking the day before coming out to the island, so he can’t lash out at anyone while he’s on this detox.
The next episode is when Shane hits a low point in the game. The shelter La Mina has isn’t finished when a huge rainstorm comes in, so they’re soaked, and wonders why he’s even out here cause he doesn’t need the money and misses his son. We also get two iconic lines back to back from him. Most remember the “No more torrential downpours sir god, no more of those!” line, but my favorite as a kid was “I do not like you flea!”. Luckily though, a swap happens and Shane gets first as “the cool guy with the Boston tattoo” to be on the new Casaya tribe and chooses Courtney to be on it. He then immediately starts trashing the season theme by complaining about how didn’t belong in the older men tribe because he was 34 going on 12 and prefers this new tribe as he doesn’t feel like wanting to leave at all. He even gets himself in a great spot strategically as Shane instantly forms an alliance with Aras, Courtney, and Danielle, swearing in his son to stay true and tells everyone that if they screw him he’ll kill them and tells them he’s serious when they laugh. However, that grace period ends quickly after they lose immunity, saying that Casaya is in dire straits and were wrecked physically, and now he was once again done with the game and wants to be voted out, which annoys everyone including the alliance he just made. However, he gets convinced by Aras to stick it out and he just needs water, so he decides to stay and immediately tells Cirie and Melinda to their face that they’re going home. Such a huge emotional roller coaster with Shane, and it's only the second episode.
The next couple episodes do set up a rhythm of how Shane’s experience on Casaya goes. For starters, he starts developing a big hatred for his two biggest allies, Danielle and Courtney. With Danielle, he feels like she doesn’t do nearly as much work as him or Aras, and argues with her about her aversion to working. He also gets annoyed with Courtney simply by the fact that she annoys him, and they end up bickering over everything. Another big part of Shane’s character is his big outbursts, the big one from episode three is when he gets a big rock to sit on and calls it his thinking seat, tells everyone that no one can sit on it, and when everyone laughs he starts yelling about how he just wants to sit on this rock.
These emotions boil over in episode 5 when Casaya loses immunity again, and originally he wants to vote out Bobby, but gets convinced by Aras to vote Bruce. So Shane makes a deal with Bobby, swearing on his son that he would keep Bobby around until final 6. But uh oh, the women of the tribe want to vote out Bobby now, which greatly annoys Shane cause he just promised Bobby that he would get Bobby to F6 and starts yelling at Courtney about it for some reason. He would throw his vote and Bobby went home, but he was so livid he yelled about how they made a bad decision due to Danielle’s emotions while everyone was trying to sleep. He basically wants out of the alliance but can’t because he swore on his son’s name. Luckily for him, all the women on the tribe want him out next, so when asked if he could take back his son’s name, they say yes immediately, and then he tells them that he can’t work with people who make their decisions emotionally and then tells them that they do nothing. At that point, even Aras was ready to vote Shane out. Luckily, they win immunity and go on a reward to a panamanian village. That’s where Shane manages to bum a cigarette off a local and gets an insane rush from it that somehow gives him the ability to make up everything with Danielle, allowing all to be forgiven.
Then the merge hits, and Shane ends up in a really good spot! Since Casaya are up in numbers when the merge hits, 6-4, and he quickly rallies all of Casaya to stick together, giving Shane an easy ride to final 7. That means we get a lot of great Shane moments! We get him asking Jeff to bring out a temptation during an immunity challenge, and when Jeff reveals he doesn’t have any, he just drops out. He complains about the people talking about the reward they won, saying “That’s a problem, I couldn’t finish my bacon cause there was too much”. We get Shane chowing Cirie his penis to check on a rash he’s getting and then him stuffing his face full of cheeseburger instead of doing the immunity challenge, and then says he overperformed at the immunity challenge cause he almost ate two cheeseburgers both in the same episode!
The biggest episode for Shane though was the touchy subjects episode. We do get the funny Shane moments at that challenge where he gets voted as “person who thinks they’re in control of the game” and “most moodiest person”, which he then proves by complaining about Courtney cutting him twice, saying that her life in the game is changing, specifically her enjoyment around camp. He also gets on his hands and knees begging Cirie to take him on reward, which she doesn’t. We also get the iconic Bruce medevac scene, where Shane helps carry Bruce out on a stretcher buck naked. But in the morning, Shane begins strategizing with Courtney, seeing her as a dream person to take to the F2 to beat. They solidify a plan to work together in the game, and then Shane proceeds to threaten to kill her in her shitty apartment if she betrayed him, much to Cortney’s annoyance because her apartment isn’t shitty! This would lead into Shane’s strategic downfall, as Cirie figures out how useful Courtney would be to take to the end while Shane is too busy using a piece of wood as a blackberry to allow him to communicate to people not on the island, and she organizes a Courtney vote, leaving Shane out of it. This shocks Shane when it happens, but gets assured that he is still good for F4 by Aras. This calms Shane down and makes him confident that he’s safe, when in reality he would be next to go if Terry won immunity again. And sure enough, Terry won immunity again and Shane gets blindsided at the vote, and instead of a huge meltdown which everyone was probably expecting, Shane brags about how he’s going to have a chocolate ice cream bar in one minute (extra emphasis on the one minute) before finally getting his torch snuffed.
So all of the above is great. Shane is clearly a goofy crazy character with a lot of funny moments and outbursts, and that makes him a great character, but that isn’t what makes him number one for me. What makes Shane the best for me and elevates him from a great character to a perfect character, is the love he has for his son. We see Shane himself explain how much Boston means to him, as when watching a part of his video from home, he begins to tear up and cry when seeing his son, calling him his son, his brother, his other half.It really resonates with me how much Shane clearly loves and cares for his son Boston out there, especially when you consider the status quo at the time was for men to keep their emotions under wraps. It's especially unique with Shane since usually people who are about their family play the game to win it for him, but for Shane it is what makes him want to leave. The first time he thinks about quitting is when he realizes how much he misses his son and questions why he’s even out there. He cares so much that when he uses his son’s name for promises, it ways on him deeply, like when he hated the people in his alliance but he was stuck with them due to using his son’s name and asking them to let him take it back instead of just outright betraying them, or being annoyed when the vote switches to Bobby cause he just promised on his son name to keep Bobby until F6. We were honestly robbed with that extra scene where Shane thinks he shouldn’t be there cause he’s missing his son’s birthday, so Courtney suggests the whole tribe sing happy birthday for him, and the whole tribe sits at the beach singing happy birthday while Shane just stares off into the night sky is just emotionally powerful. This all leads into the F5 reward challenge, where we learn that the reward for the challenge was the loved ones visit, where Boston shows up. But Terry already won, so it's up to him who gets love. It's generally tense because we know how much Shane hurts and misses his son, so when Terry lets Shane take Boston to the resort with him, it's just so emotionally powerful. In a way, after everything Shane had gone through, getting to finally see the son he missed the whole time he was there was probably better than winning the million dollars. That’s what makes Shane the perfect character to me, as even though he was crazy due to nicotine withdrawal and was high strung, at the end of the day, he was just a father who really missed his son, and I will always love that about him.

2024.06.07 09:52 kingofstormandfire This the Top 6 singles of 1972 according to Billboard year-end list. Which one is your favourite?

Guess Todd's sub doesn't care for 1971 since it was the lowest voted poll of the ones so far. I get it. In the end, "It's Too Late" squeezed into first place ahead of "Maggie May".
Moving onto 1972
***
1) "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" (Roberta Flack) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqW-eO3jTVU
The first of three-chart toppers by Roberta Flack, it was written by Ewan MacColl and was first recorded by MacColl’s wife Peggy Seeger in 1957. The song is a love ballad that expresses profound emotional connection and admiration. The lyrics describe the overwhelming feelings experienced when seeing a lover's face for the first time. Flack's version is characterised by its slow tempo and minimalistic arrangement, featuring piano and strings that highlight her soulful and tender vocal delivery. The song blends elements of folk, soul, jazz and pop music.
I dunno, might be a controversial opinion, but I find this song kinda boring and especially tiresome on repeated listen. It’s not a bad song and it’s well-performed but it’s not the type of music I wanna be listening to all the time. I much prefer her following No. 1 single which will appear next year’s poll.
2) “Alone Again (Naturally)” (Gilbert O’Sullivan) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gU3ubk8u7dA
The sole-chart topper by Irish singer-songwriter Gilbert O’Sullivan, this soft-rock/pop song deals with themes of loneliness, heartbreak, and existential despair. O’Sullivan reflects on being left alone after being abandoned by a lover and contemplates past and future sorrows, including family tragedies. The song features a simple yet effective arrangement with piano and orchestral backing. It’s considered one of the most melancholic songs to hit the top spot. Several songwriters such as Neil Sedaka and Neil Diamond have praised the song, with both remarking how remarkable a 21-year-old could write a song with such a complex lyric. In 1991, O'Sullivan sued rapper Biz Markie for using a sample of his song "Alone Again (Naturally)" without permission. The United States District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled that unauthorised sampling constituted copyright infringement. This decision significantly impacted the music industry, mandating that artists must obtain prior approval from original copyright holders for any samples used in their music to avoid legal action.
Love this song. Great lyrics. Great melody.
3) “American Pie” (Don McLean) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRpiBpDy7MQ.
The sole chart-topper by Don McLean, "American Pie" is one of the most famous and enduring songs in music history. The song was inspired by the plane crash on February 3, 1959, that killed Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and J.P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson, which McLean refers to as "the day the music died”. The lyrics of "American Pie" reflect on the cultural and political changes in the United States from the 1950s to the early 1970s. McLean uses symbolic references to describe the evolution of rock and roll and the loss of innocence in American society. Its enigmatic lyrics have been the subject of much analysis and interpretation. The original version of the song is over eight minutes long, making it one of the longest songs to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100.
Yeah, I have a feeling this is winning the poll. It’s either this song or what’s at #4. Love this song. It’s an undeniable classic. It’s amazing how enduring this song is despite the lyrics being very much about its era.
4) “Without You” (Harry Nilsson) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dnUv3DUP4E
The sole chart-topper by American artist Harry Nilsson, “Without You” was Nilsson’s cover of the 1970 song released by the British rock band Badfinger, written by members Pete Ham and Tom Evans (you wanna read a tragic story, read up on the history of Badfinger). The song expresses the deep sense of loss and heartbreak following the end of a significant romantic relationship. Nilsson's vocal performance is one of the key elements that made the song a hit. His voice transitions from soft and tender in the verses to powerful and emotional in the chorus. The arrangement features lush orchestration, including piano and strings, which complement Nilsson's vocal delivery. Mariah Carey also had a big worldwide hit with this song in 1994 and based her version off Nilsson’s version.
Wow, what an incredible version. Stunning vocal performance from Nilsson. Badfinger’s version is good, but compared to this, the original sounds like a demo.
5) “The Candy Man” (Sammy Davis Jr.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qz1syhcU39U
This song, written by Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley, was originally featured in the 1971 film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, sung by Aubrey Woods, who played the character Bill, the candy store owner. The song's lyrics celebrate a candy maker who creates wonderful and magical treats. Sammy Davis Jr.'s version features a lively, upbeat arrangement with a strong vocal performance. The production includes a full orchestra with prominent brass and string sections. Sammy Davis Jr. famously hated this song. Of the song, he said “It’s horrible. It’s a timmy-two-shoes, it’s white bread, cute-ums, there’s no romance. Blech!” After hastily recording it in two takes at a studio session, he also reportedly said, “This record is going straight into the toilet. Not just around the rim but into the bowl, and it may just pull my whole career down with it."
I love Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (which I was shocked to discover actually bombed at the Box Office), and I enjoy this song in the movie when it’s performed in the beginning by the candy store owner. I know a lot of people think this version is lame, but I like it.
6) “I Gotcha” (Joe Tex) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDEZQxg2TSM
Peaking at No. 2 on the Hot 100, "I Gotcha" is a song written and performed by American soul singer Joe Tex. It became one of his most successful singles and is well-remembered for its energetic and catchy style. The song features a confrontational and assertive tone, with lyrics that describe a man catching his lover in a compromising situation and expressing his feelings of betrayal and anger. The song is marked by a driving rhythm section, punchy horns, and Tex's powerful vocal delivery. The energetic arrangement complements the song's assertive lyrics. "I Gotcha" is a blend of funk and soul, characterised by its rhythmic intensity and strong vocal performance.
I heard this song before because I browsed through the 1972 charts before, but I didn’t really remember it before and damn, this is a really cool song.
***
Rounding out the Top 10 is “Lean on Me” (Bill Withers) (No. 7), “Baby, Don’t Get Hooked on Me” (Mac Davis) (No. 8), “Brand New Key” (Melanie) (No. 9) and “Daddy Don’t Walk So Fast” (Wayne Newton (No. 10). Similar to 1971, a very interesting and eclectic Top 10. I like it a bit better.

Jackpot City Casino Bonus and Promotions

If you had to ask players what is important to them when choosing a new site to play at, you would get a resounding answer of casino bonuses! In addition, with so many online casinos on the market, we understand that bonuses are incredibly important in attracting new players as well as keeping existing players happy.
We won’t keep you waiting, so to kick off our review we turn our attention to the bonuses and promotions here for both new members and existing players.

Jackpot City Casino No Deposit Bonus

Of course, finding a bonus where you don’t have to deposit anything but get something in return is more than nice. However, this more often than not comes at a loss to a site, making it incredibly hard to come by. So finding an online casino that offers a no deposit bonus is incredibly rare and we absolutely forgive Jackpot City Casino for not having an offer currently around. Make sure to check back from time to time as it’s possible this special type of bonus will occur in the future. This will also ensure that you will be able to grab it as soon as it’s available.
Jackpot City Casino Review

Jackpot City Welcome Bonus

Currently, players using our exclusive link can get 80 chances to win the staggering jackpot prize, currently totalling over €3.5 million. This lucrative jackpot could be won all for just €1. New customers can open an account and make a minimum deposit of just €1 to receive 80 Free Spins on Absolootly Mad Mega Moolah. This exclusive bonus is only available from our link - you won’t be able to find this anywhere else on the internet! Of course, Terms and Conditions do apply to this offer, so please take the time to head over to our minimum deposit casino page to learn more.
https://preview.redd.it/ygdvo44qb35d1.png?width=980&format=png&auto=webp&s=c97e77b8aee80d73006c7094a3e6f0f99eae39e1
That’s not all, after taking up the Free Spins offer, new customers can get an extended very warm welcome with a staggering match up bonus total of €1600. After successful registration and taking the first Free Spins offer, customers can receive the Welcome Bonus over their subsequent four deposits. For each of these four deposits a player makes, it will be matched by 100% up to €400, leaving you with a very nice introduction. With this offer, there is a playthrough requirement of 200 times for both the Free Spins and the received bonus amount. As an example for the latter offer, if you receive €10 as a bonus, you will be required to play through €2000 before any winnings made of the bonus amount can be withdrawn.

80 Free Spins for €1 Offer

  • Bonus:80 Free Spins €1
  • Min Deposit: €1
  • Max Bonus: 80 Free Spins
  • Wagering Requirement: 200 times + two months play through

Match Up Offer

  • Bonus: Up to €1600
  • Min Deposit: €10
  • Max Bonus: 4 x €400
  • Wagering Requirement: 70 times + two months play through
n.b. If you prefer to take another Welcome Bonus, it’s possible to forgo the Free Spins. This is an offer very similar to the match up bonus for a player’s first four deposits, however the wagering requirement stands lower at just 70 times. These bonus terms tell you that you can unlock the Welcome Bonus from as little as €10, where for this deposit it will be matched by 100%, giving you a total of €20 to play at the casino. This bonus €10 must meet the wagering requirement of 70 times, meaning you will need to wager a total of €700 before and winning attributed to the bonus portion can be withdrawn. If the Welcome Bonus is unused for two months, it will be forfeited. Of course, further Terms and Conditions apply, so please head over to the Bonus Terms page to find all the information.

Jackpot City Casino Rewards and VIP Programme

Online gaming platforms know how important it is to not focus all their attention on new customers only.

Jackpot City Casino Games and Slots

https://preview.redd.it/sdv3rin6c35d1.jpg?width=680&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=75097c92b31c9d263c18284c6ad5f320a44e7cec
Without a doubt, players will be able to find a whole range of games and slots on this platform. Advanced graphics, bonus rounds, and unique themes are all available here. We know some customers enjoy sticking to the classic games, while others enjoy the bright, eye-catching, and well-designed slot machines, so it’s important for a site to include a good range of both (and everything in between!).
Take a look at some of the gaming examples:
  • Book of Oz™
  • African Quest™
  • Break da Bank Again™
  • 9 Masks of Fire™
  • MegMoolah™
Online slot machines were there at the very beginning of online gambling and they continue to attract many customers to different sites every single day. Over the decades, slot machines have been upgraded and have had wonderful makeovers to keep the entertainment flowing. Jackpot City promise brilliant, fun, and entertaining experiences with their slots, so whatever you decide to play, you know it will be a thrilling time. No matter the preference you have, you will be able to easily find an online slot here with different paylines, themes, and graphics.
We hope you can forgive us that we can’t include that many slots as we would like, so we’ve got a small handful to give you some expectations of what you can find on the full site:
  • Tomb Raider™
  • Hitman
  • Thunderstruck 2™
  • Avalon and Avalon 2™
  • Fortunium™

Progressive Jackpots

One of the latest progressive jackpot games to hit this platform is a collaboration between Microgaming and Alchemy Gaming Studios. The Wheel of Wishes has three different jackpot pools ranging from the Mini to the Minor and finally the Major. In addition, you can find the WowPot! Jackpot which often has the prize pot in the millions. At the time of writing, the total stands at a whopping €3 million!

Table Games

You will be able to find the classic casino table games such as roulette, baccarat, and blackjack and many video poker slots on this platform. Take a look below at some of the titles that are available to play:
  • Sapphire Roulette
  • Atlantic City Blackjack Gold
  • Caribbean Draw Poker Gold
  • Double Double Bonus Poker
  • Dragon Tiger

Game Software Providers

Players are in good hands at this online casino as this platform is backed by one of the leading software providers in the industry. With decades of experience, you can be absolutely sure to find innovative, exciting, and satisfying games to play. Microgaming casinos have a huge reputation within the industry, being one of the first companies within the online gaming market. They are well known for their themed slots, huge jackpot slots, and tournament games.

Jackpot City Live Casino

Live casino gaming is taken seriously here and they want to deliver a first-class experience to all players. While there is potentially not a huge choice of categories in the live game lobby, the basics are certainly covered.
When entering the dedicated lobby, players will be able to see the different tables and hosts available to play, and due to top-quality technology, players will also be able to send messages to the host and other players for an enjoyable and sociable time.

Live Games

These are the 3 main live dealer games available at Jackpot City, however, please do note that many variants of these 3 are available and too plentiful to list here. So basically what they do is get the core of the game and create different versions of it which would have some minor or major changes to the rules. This will give a classic casino game a breath of fresh air to keep things fun and entertaining. That said, always check the odds of the game and compare them with the odds of the original version.
  • Live Blackjack: Access classic tables and exclusive variations where you can put your skills to the test by trying to beat the dealer.
  • Live Roulette: Roulette is an absolute classic casino game, so it’s no surprise that they have this covered. Take the time to chat to the dealer and other players as you watch the ball spin around the wheel.
  • Live Baccarat: Promising action and excitement, go head-to-head against the dealer.

Jackpot City Live Casino Bonus

If any further Live Casino bonuses are available, you will be able to find them within the dedicated Live Casino lobby from time to time however they are not always available such as at the time of writing.

Jackpot City Sports Betting

Unfortunately, where they lose a couple of points, from our point of view, is by not offering sports betting. As we know, many fans of online casinos also enjoy placing bets on the football, horse racing, or even greyhound racing, so we hope to see this addition in the future.

Jackpot City Casino Mobile and Desktop User Experience

Whether you prefer to use your desktop to play at online casinos or enjoy the convenience of playing on the go, they have you covered. They understand that there is a balance between players on their platform, however many Irish players do not have the time to play at their computers. This is where the power of smartphones comes into question. Players have the option to access Jackpot City from their mobiles in two ways; by accessing the official homepage or through the standalone app.
Mobile gaming is certainly becoming a huge sector in the gambling industry, so it is imperative that online casinos can deliver in this area. Check out the next section to find all the important information about the downloadable app for quick and easy access to the platform.

Jackpot City Casino Mobile App Review

Jackpot City Casino also offers an innovative app with an optimised design for both tablets and smartphones using iOS, Android, and Windows software, so you are only one touch away from playing your favourite games.
Players can find the casino’s mobile games split into two categories; games that require downloading and games that allow browser-based gaming. This is largely down to which games have been built with HTML 5 technology and also provides a way to accommodate as many smartphone operating systems as possible.

Jackpot City Casino Deposit and Withdrawing Payment Options

You can find a decent choice of casino banking options at Jackpot City, spanning more traditional Card and bank transfers as well as e-wallet and prepaid card options.
Take a look at the table below for further information about the different methods.
Payment Method Minimum Deposit Withdrawal Time
VISA €10 Up to 5 business days
MasterCard €10 Up to 5 business days
Interac €10 Up to 5 business days
Neteller €10 Up to 5 business days
Skrill €10 Up to 5 business days
Trustly €10 Up to 5 business days
iDebit €10 Up to 5 business days
​

Our Verdict

Now we come to the final part of our review, and you might be wondering where this platform places list of best Ireland casinos to join online. We can safely say that casino Jackpot City is bold, funky, and promises to bring some of the Nevada-style Vegas atmosphere to all the Irish players. You will be able to find a lot of information on their site, so if you are inexperienced with online gaming, this could be a great platform for you.
A slightly frustrating point about this site is that the whole selection of games is hidden to those without an account. It would be lovely to be able to browse through the existing games before committing and making an account, as it would be a huge disappointment if a certain game you were hoping to play turned out to be unavailable!
All in all, there is a very generous Welcome Bonus offered and if you love playing slot machines then this is a great choice for you.

2024.06.06 19:19 WolfyTKer01 The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya - Top 10 reasons for A Haruhi Suzumiya Season 3 of the Anime.

Top 10 reasons for a The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Season 3 Anime.
  1. The anime has several plotlines from the light novels, such as the origins and true intentions of various characters, including the Anti-SOS Brigade members.
    • Further exploration of Haruhi's powers and the true nature of the world could provide a rich narrative.
  2. The Anti-SOS Brigade, including characters like Kuyou Suou, Kyoko Tachibana, and Fujiwara, adds complexity and new dynamics to the story.
    • Their conflicting goals and interactions with the SOS Brigade members could provide intense and intriguing plot developments.
  3. A third season could delve deeper into the characters' backgrounds and motivations, offering fans more insight into their favorite characters.
    • Especially with the introduction of Anti-SOS Brigade members, there would be opportunities for character growth and new relationships.
  4. The light novels provide a wealth of material that has yet to be adapted, including more adventures and supernatural phenomena.
    • Exploring these stories would expand the universe and provide fresh content for the audience.
  5. There is a strong and dedicated fanbase that has been hoping for more content.
    • The nostalgic appeal of returning to a beloved series can generate significant interest and excitement.
  6. Utilizing modern animation techniques and higher production values could revitalize the series and attract a new generation of viewers.
    • Improved animation quality would enhance the viewing experience, especially during action scenes and supernatural events.
  7. The series could tackle new themes such as existentialism, identity, and the nature of reality, especially through the lens of the Anti-SOS Brigade's interactions with Haruhi and her friends.
    • These deeper themes could provide a more mature and thought-provoking narrative. The SOS Brigade going to the Snowy Mountain arc as well.
  8. A third season could lead to potential spin-offs or expanded media, including more light novels, manga adaptations, and even video games.
    • The Anti-SOS Brigade members themselves could be the focus of these new projects, offering fresh perspectives on the Haruhi universe.
  9. Continuing the series would cement its place in anime history and maintain its cultural relevance.
    • It would also introduce the story to younger audiences who may not be familiar with the original series.
  10. With the enduring popularity of the franchise, a new season could be commercially successful, driving merchandise sales, streaming subscriptions, and other revenue streams.
This is something Kyoto Animation KyoAni Studios needs to do. I need to see Sasaki and the Anti SOS Brigade animated in the Anime. The Manga and Light Novel book series has a very unique. And very interesting story that needs to be explored in the Anime. Same with the Snowy Mountain Syndrome arc.

PICTURE OF YOU RECORDINGS:
SONG REVIEW
"Look At You" is the 9th track on the bands 2008 record, Evil Urges. It has been theorized, perhaps stemming from a Vanity Fair interview with the band, that "Look At You" might be an ode to Barack Obama. I don't think it is. Either way, it's certainly a tribute to someone Jim admires, or it could even be about self-reflection. Regardless, it fits perfectly within Evil Urges theme of the war between our best and worst natures. "Look At You" is a lush tune with Jim's heartfelt lyrics lifted by Carl on the pedal steel. I rate this song an 8.2.
Here’s a suggested and totally optional rating scale:
1-4: Not for me. Either just not my cup of tea or straight up bad.
5-6: Not great, but decent. Worth listening to from time to time.
7-8: Good, maybe even great. May or may not be a standout track, but definitely not a skip.
9-10: Either a perfect song or getting close to it. Nearly everything is working.
Let me know what y’all think! Also, if you have any live version that you feel really stands out, please feel free to drop a link to it!
