You've got a point there, man. Solid logic.

The band played Green Day; I know how to play Time of Your Life. 😳

Is it okay? It seems like having a woman in the band is quite the trend lately. 😁

Well, I’m the authority too, just with a bit more of a punk edge 😢

😢

(On a side note: I read that magazine once in my life and absolutely hated it. Not worth complaining about.)

What, you want a PrittPen to come over and read you a bedtime story?🙂

northernfalcon30 said:Jason Diaz34, I was strictly referring to the Music subforum, not our local American music scene.
I haven't really found anyone to chat with on that subforum, even though I love all kinds of music—from classical to everything else...

Let’s not play semantics here; you clearly wrote "this culture" earlier, which definitely isn't just about the Music subforum.

I’ve been one of the more active members over in Music for over two years now, and I don't recall you ever trying to strike up a conversation there. The vibe in that section is actually pretty welcoming to new people and info, provided you aren't just repeating the same old tired topics.

So, let's not make a scene just for the sake of it.

northernfalcon30 said:Rhetorical questions might imply an answer rather than demand one, but looking at this music subforum, I’d argue this culture is even more lost than the film scene.

No, really...

Where on earth did you get that idea about the music side of things?

I feel like over the last ten posts, we’ve moved past discussing bricks and started talking about straw, haven't we?

Honestly, I wouldn't call the movie a personal favorite (expectations were... well), but it still managed to pull a smile out of me.

Honestly, he’s just the most ridiculous one of the group who teamed up while I was away.

🤣 Man, what did I miss?

Such a pointless topic.

Jose Miller17 said:Don't you start with me. 😁😁I'll give the armchair credit—it’s where I watched half my favorite movies—but the screen just isn't big enough.😁😁...

Well, I visited China recently. It’s a bit smaller than I expected. 😉 For that room size, it’s actually quite decent. 😁

Jose Miller17 said:Unfortunately, there aren't any actual films about it. 😁😁So, I'm stuck here in New York having to go out and actually watch movies.😕

I caught it on the big screen at a local boutique cinema over Easter break. A cozy recliner, a cold beer in hand... things like that. 😁

a, I found the film beautiful, but Hero is just so much better—you can't really escape that comparison 🙂 a, besides, I'm a total sucker for those highly visual movies; I love getting lost in a gorgeous scene 🙂

In any case, it's worth a watch.

http://www.brooklynacademy.org/, huh? interesting.

If we actually get some cars and finished interstates, we could put together a little road trip. 🤣

Maybe someday.

Why couldn't they come play in America too?

😲 🙂

Jessica Wright said:So, $300 was it just about the ticket price?

Not really... if they were playing a venue three times this size.

Besides, they're already pulling off two shows.

Go ahead, take a guess. There’s already a topic about this.

😕 🙂 🙂

It's not like I appreciate them for their artistic merit or think Ivan is some kind of icon, but—even if my reasoning is purely subjective—yeah, I'm a fan. 😛
