  • Which album was a band's creative zenith/magnum opus before falling off?

  • Oh absolutely. Adore was actually the album that got me into them.

  • Which album was a band's creative zenith/magnum opus before falling off?

  • I agree with both of you. I'm very fond of everything by them up through the American Gothic EP, but Mellon Collie is still kinda the peak.

  • Is vigil series season 1 worth watching?

  • Not plot holes, although there may be some of those that I didn't notice. It's more to do with the pacing of the investigation (trying to be vague so it doesn't ruin anything for you).

    EDIT: Couldn't get spoiler tags to work, so removed that part.

  • Is vigil series season 1 worth watching?

  • I enjoyed it well enough, although I actually think season 2 is better. If you're a regular whodunnit watcher, you might be mildly disgruntled at a couple of aspects in season 1, but it's still a fairly compelling watch imo.

  • Has anyone watched " death and other details " if so is it worth watching? leave a spoiler free review if you can. I thought it looked kinda bad from the trailer.

  • I mean, it's subjective, right? So far, yes, I'm enjoying it more than Glass Onion, but I'm sure there are people who loved Glass Onion that won't like Death and Other Details. Besides, it's hard to judge a whole season from just two episodes. Maybe as the season goes on, the plot twists will become ridiculous, or maybe the resolution will be mindblowing. Dunno yet.

  • Has anyone watched " death and other details " if so is it worth watching? leave a spoiler free review if you can. I thought it looked kinda bad from the trailer.

  • For me, it's in the "fine" category so far: nothing I'd jump to recommend to others, but engaging enough to likely watch the whole season. It's fairly light and fluffy, but I don't find it as charming as I think it's trying to be. (For comparison, I thought Knives Out was also fine, but didn't really care for Glass Onion.)

    The Endearing - Take Me Back

  • Just finished reading Annihilation - strange book

  • I saw the movie first, then read the book after hearing it was different/maybe better, since aside from the bear, I found the movie fairly whelming. I ended up really enjoying the book, particularly the dream-like style. Authority, however, I found... really slow. I was intrigued by the premise, and the reveals were interesting, but the pacing was just glacial, imo, and it did away with what I'd liked about Annihilation. I did start Acceptance afterward, but was sort of over it at that point, and never finished it.

    Euan Ellis - Levitation

  • Fanpushing time!

  • Despite the first book winning the 2021 SPSFC (admittedly, a much less well-known competition than the SPFBO), I almost never see the Primaterre series by S.A. Tholin mentioned. They are doorstoppers, but very well paced, imo: I inhaled the first two books. If you like space opera that manages to avoid a lot of plot tropes, give the series a try!

    (Sidenote: if you're put off by the "cosmic horror" label on the first book, I recall there being a couple of mildly gory scenes, but it's mostly in the realm of "unfathomably alien" rather than trying to scare.)

    Actually found this harder than expected--most of the songs I associate with summer are the wrong genre, or became super mainstream. But I played this album extensively one summer, and this song in particular has that warm, stuffy evening vibe for me.
