Kind of a weird thing for me to say, but I appreciate moments in movies where two or more main characters are walking through some gorgeous scenery, and the camera panning is slow enough for me to appreciate it despite their conversation.
Looked through the best bands of 2020s and it's either old bands from 00s or some completely unknown names I have never heard of.
The future is grim, we need to archive history of the 90s and 00s and hold on to it for as long as we can
That’s called getting old. Every generation at some point finds all the cool yoof counter culture music of today different to what they think it should be due to being out of touch. The same thing happened to your parents when Motley Crue and Genesis were replaced with Nirvana and Blur, the same happened to your grandparents when The Beach Boys and The Kinks were replaced with Led Zepplin and The Ramones. Really that is as it should be, the cool music of right now shouldn’t be established household names that even your Auntie and Uncle knows about, like imagine asking your Great Aunt who watches Emmerdale and hasn’t gone up in da club for decades about what is hot in the scene right now.
@jump it would be but there are two points worth considering:
1. I am not getting old yet (I mean technically everybody is getting older and older but you know what I mean)
2. I never stopped being out of touch with music, it's just that there are no names worth mentioning nowadays. If there was cool music of today, I would have known that, I can say it with some certainty. I'm not claiming to be the all knowing musical guru, but I really know my way around the beats, half of the music I listen to are older than me, that means something.
I don't mean to argue, but has anyone heard of any good band coming out after 2010? Like Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Blink 182, Green Day, Panic! At the Disco, Fall Out Boy, Asia, The Beatles, The Cure, Sum 41, etc. These are the names everyone knows, even people born after their debuts. We don't see such big names nowadays. The last one that was everywhere was someone called Justin Bieber but his career was entirely engineered by the music companies in order to create a music celebrity, and he got lost to the sands of time the second his controversy stopped being fun.

@Sunsy I still own some Pokemon merch and play the games, though I'm a bit behind when it comes to game releases since my time is finite and The Pokemon Company likes sticking to a short release schedule...to the newer titles' detriment. I just started Pokemon Legends: Arceus over the weekend and really like it so far, even if the pop-in is a bit annoying at times. I did try getting back into the card game, but it's an investment (and a bit hard to get good cards around here since the local card shop closed....I don't trust ordering online).
I love most forms of seafood, so I'd be more than happy to make it more of a tradition...but not a lot of my family is on board with that. Some things like grilled or fried fish are fine, but I'm an outlier when it comes to less bland things like, peppered fish, scallops, and sushi and its relations.

Luca’s taunts:
Up: Gets on all fours like a real fox and growls (rather similar to Wolf’s down-taunt)
Side: Summons a small flicker of fire from his right hand while saying “If you play with fire, you’re gonna get burned.”
Down: Does a quick backflip and says “Ha!”
Just one day left before I have delicious cake! In other news, been playing more of Golden Sun and got a little further... hopefully I'll make more progress soon. Also been playing New Super Mario Bros. on the DS. I still have my DS copy and I got nostalgic for that game, I used to play it a ton back when it first came out in 2006.
@Tyranexx They did! You're right, it's all in good fun, and no one really knows what the winning team will be until the final results. Also, you get super sea snails for participating in Splatfests. You can still get a healthy amount of them even if your team loses - the winning team only gets a few more. I got 21 super sea snails for getting the Family Ruler title. I would've gotten 24 had I chosen Solo, and got the Solo Ruler title. So it's not too bad.
I certainly did. She's been super nice and helpful to me during my drawing class, and the other classes that she taught. Everyone's drawings in the class also got displayed in the library... including mine! Oh gotcha, I'd say I'm better with scenes and objects as well. I did take a similar class where you'd make 2D designs with abstract patterns and stuff. It was a bit more challenging compared to drawing.
Absolutely... that stepmother is just plain heartless. Good to hear that Anastasia has changed a bit in the sequels, I've not seen those. Just the first Cinderella film from 1950. I do like that movie, actually. It's a cute movie for sure... sans Lady Tremaine and her daughters, of course, lol. And yeah, as @Eel said, this whole thing worked in Cinderella's favor in a way... she has still been figuring out a way to get her happy ending, even with all that abuse she's been putting up with. There's no stopping her, huh? (Side note: I did see a movie that's called Anastasia... but that one is totally different. lol)
That would be cool to replay 3D World, I've been wanting to give the game a replay on my birthday. It might just be my favorite Mario game, actually!
@Sunsy I actually finished Super Mario RPG not too long ago! Good to hear you're making good use of your little tree before the batteries go. We both pretty much made the most out of our batteries, except with totally different things.
I remember that. Always had my boy Mario as my profile picture here at Nintendo Life... except that one time when I had Peach instead! I've had both Mario and Peach in certain profile pictures of mine, too. All righty gotcha, that's cool they added the modern dress for Amy. I'm guessing it was part of a free update?
I think I remember that too, except that was from the more "official" review sites, for lack of a better word. I don't remember if that's the case... it's been years since I last touched the Wii version and I think I only played it once or twice. That's cool on Sonic Boom. Actually, I had a similar experience with not seeing Sonic SatAM during its heyday, though we rented a couple VHS tapes at Blockbuster or Hollywood Video (don't remember which) back in... I wanna say the late 90s. Sonic SatAM first aired in 1993, and I was only a year old back then.
Yeah, that is sad indeed... my local mall used to have a Disney store as well, but that unfortunately closed down as well. Too bad. It's where my mom and dad got me a Jiminy Cricket plush when I was a little boy... loved that plush back then. I would think so as well, plus many of the rides are a big selling point for a lot of people, too. Same with the Cinderella castle, and I think you can get souvenirs as well.
Gosh, Mario + Rabbids is another game I should play more of, or should I say, games. Kingdom Battle, and Sparks of Hope. I've not played XCOM, but I have played a few turn-based strategy games myself, namely Fire Emblem, Advance Wars, and Shining Force.
Been wanting to ask you. Do the Trolls movies all have a connected story, or can they be watched in any order? Looks like everyone's been liking Trolls Band Together, I was thinking of checking out that movie sometime. Also my mom's literally the same way, she also likes watching crime dramas, which also aren't my cup of tea. She does like watching Disney movies with me, though.

Ask if you want to be Switch friends with me, but I'd like to know you first. Thanks! ❤️
Personally, I don't think Game Freak or Nintendo should have to bother with Palworld's popularity, just ignore it and hopefully it'll die on its own. Like how Disney decided not to pursue legal action against the "Escape from Tomorrowland" fan film (because of the "Streisand Effect", where trying to censor or cover something up ends up giving it more publicity).
That being said, even if I had an interest in Palworld...I don't own any Xbox consoles or a PC.
@IceDomino even if they bother, there's not much they can do legally. I mean they can do much with their company's size as big companies tend to miraculously win unwinnable court cases, but that wouldn't fly with the gamers

@Eagly_lmtd_xmasskin Yeah of course I do
Rememebr when I stuffed you into an Astolfo pfp? @ThatWeirdGuy My weeeknd was interesting, first semester strats today so easy work.
By interesting I mwean not great. My heater brokeand it's coooold outside so I had to sleep in warm fuzzy footed pajamas (I bought them to lounge around in but never planned in sleepign in them, but ti was too cold to wear nightgowns liek I usually do)- so the other day I didn't sleep till 8 AM cause, well, not used to sleeping in heavy clothes, but we're getting out heater fixed, and one of my moms friends works at the heating company and she got our gas bill payed, so that was hecking amazing. Oh also I started watchign Death Note,didn't know i'd love it this much.
Also I forgot that I was allergic to some adhesives on stickers and tsuff. So I put googly eyes on the back of my hand and a sharpi squiggle and made a friend, took off the googly eyes several hours later cause they were irritating my skin and I told my mom cause I thought it was hilarious that my skin was reacting to googly eyes (I thought it was the dermographism) and she was like "No you're allergic to most adhesives remmerb?"
Anyways so there was googly eye sized marks on the back of my hand and it hurt for teh rest of the day
@ThatWeirdGuy I forgot I was allergic to a lot of adhesives man, I thought I was just allergic to red#40 and mosquitoes. Can't be a normal person for just one minute
Giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Murin!
