  1. My immediate family, or people on forums, are who I talk to. However, forums are not that active anymore. I find myself not feeling the urge to talk about Resident Evil as much as I used to. Perhaps that's because that dead horse has had enough of the clubbing to its messed up carcass. 😄 In all seriousness, it could just be a lack of gaming news that causes a dry spell for a desire to discuss a certain topic, or just having no games to play puts me off from doing so. Period.
  2. Yes. They look visually stunning. Metropolis for its time, still looks astonishing.
  3. I've been rather bored and depressed lately. Maybe it's because of the condition they call SAD, as the weather has gotten incredibly cold. But in general, life is very lonesome and a monotonous ordeal for me all year round.
  4. You can glimpse me in this trailer at the 7 second mark. Look for me on the far right when the woman in red holds the gun in the club scene. 😂 I am wearing glasses.
  5. Watched a little bit of a 60's movie called The Sadist, which is about three people fixing a car, then a crazy guy threatens them with his girlfriend. Felt tired, so I went to bed. It looks quite interesting, though.
  6. Find a year for music you know you may like, and then add each month of the year to a playlist. This will give you time to enjoy a range of the time period's biggest hits, before you move to the following month per calender year. Doing it a month at a time means you can learn a decent amount of tracks by pretending they just "came out". The year is 1979. Just in. The Police. LMAO. Basically, just act like it's all alien to you. Or if you want, just play the songs on Wikipedia lists that you don't know, just to see what you think of them. Personally, I like to skip really cheesy stuff, as in novelty songs. So a month filled with nonsense like Black Lace or something just as silly, does nothing for me. It's all embarrassing as well. It's a great way in general to get through a whole year's worth of popular music without any pressure.
  7. ExpressVPN is meant to be one of the best. When your year is up, they'll ask you why you want to cancel it. So be ready to provide a reason. I use a free one on my phone, and they are not ideal for downloading large files. Although I think the real problem is my flat. I have noticed a big improvement since I put an unlimited data based SIM in my 4G router. Whereas if I had it in my main phone, the strength of the signal was very weak when I ran a speed test. A trick I used to do that kind of worked well enough, was to have one phone at the window with my SIM inside, in my sitting room, turn on the hotspot, and route my connection to other devices, like a second phone or a games console. I found I could achieve over 5 Mbps. It therefore gave me a better result. But please don't buy budget price Android phones. They are usually slow and fiddly.
  8. Nosferatu is just as great as Dracula. It's a silent German, early horror movie.
  9. Well, I want to get back into extra work in films. Unfortunately, I don't tell people about it online any more, with the exception of mentioning things I already filmed my scenes for. That's due to an idiot following me around on the Internet. To be honest, it's pointless being an extra anyway. If you show up and they think you're quiet, the camera isn't even on me half the time. When I was in other films with a group, they got way more close up filming than I did. So it can feel pointless. There's also a lot of waiting between a shoot. Then you may not be in focus in the final cut. So it can be kind of dull.
  10. Really wish survival horror games would come out more often. LOL. Bored out of my skull nowadays due to having a period of not being arsed with much. But SH2 was a terrific comeback for the often mistreated genre, and I'm grateful for Konami reviving the IP after it gathered dust for the longest time.
  11. Yeah. People are too enamoured with celebrities and looking at the latest, usually pointless crap on X, Facebook, and so on. I don't see the fascination with the drama and privacy invasion that comes with being a famous person, since these celebrities keep their fans at a distance anyway. Even if you get to be an extra or something in a film, you're there to work. Not to chat to the stars. At the end of the day, they are good at what they do. But they're just people with a higher profile, due to their fame. But they're just people all the same. So teenagers obsessing over fancying members of boy bands or girl groups, movie stars and all this hocus pocus, is sad.
  12. The 2000s were brilliant too, as you had Sky One with Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Pokèmon, and it was also the time I got hooked on VH1 Classic. A pre-YouTube kind of thing where you watched retro music videos amid those annoying ads, like Crazy Frog. Then I got into survival horror games and horror movies, which brought me to trying to obtain every top ten film in America since box office records began in 1922. So the journey has been both fun and rather costly.
  13. Quincy Jones, who produced that record, recently passed away. 🥺
  14. The 90's, for sure. ITV was actually compelling entertainment back then. 🥲
  15. Yes. 😋 That's an honest way to make a living. 🤑 https://youtu.be/8toBVYDKukU?feature=shared
  16. "APT" by Bruno Mars is basically copying other songs of the era. Although I do recall Juice Newton copying a song by the band called Bread. So this kind of thing is commonplace in the industry. 😁 https://youtube.com/shorts/LGwl6mHIn6U?feature=shared
  17. Probably not. But I feel the same way about Capcom, because their older games were better too. They basically ruined them by changing the storyline, and recasting the roles. Survival horror really died off in 2005, because of RE4. Everyone tried to make their game like it afterwards. So RE4 was essentially the start of the action-horror era, where the main style of gameplay was just linear and all about shooting.
  18. They do. I prefer watching old movies. I think the 70s and the 80s has the best horror and action films. The 90s is decent. I love the 50s, but never get my expectations high as they were never too violent. But then it's all pot luck in the 2020s.
