It is an hour until #MONSTERDON, your weekly monster movie watch party! If you don't want to see a bunch of nerdy monster movie toots, set up a filter for the hashtag.
Once again it is an hour until #Monsterdon, the weekly monster movie watch party. If you want to avoid a bunch of toots about a hokey sci fi flick, block the tag.
This week features STRANGER FROM VENUS (1954), in which a bug-eyed monster tries to get Earth to turn down the bass! No, I think it's about nuclear disarmament or somesuch.
We start at 9pm eastern, and you can find the movie on Tubi or YouTube. See you there!
44100 Hz or 48000 Hz for #musicproduction?
Personally I usually go with 48000 Hz because it somehow feels more "natural" to me than 44100 Hz (as half of 96000 Hz or a quarter of 192000 Hz). Made my life easier a few times when I wanted to #compose#music for #movies too. #daw#linuxaudio
I could need a bit of help regarding an old US movie which I cannot remember the title of.
It is a about a couple, probably set in the 1950s and black and white, which goes on their honeymoon in the US with a caravan. Everything goes wrong and I remember that at one point, the caravan comes off from the car and roles down a hill, I think with the bride still inside.
2024 marks the 45th anniversary of sci-fi horror masterpiece Alien, which was released May 25, 1979.
The first time I saw it I was pretty young, it was on TV and censored. We actually had it recorded on a VHS from TV, which is something my family did a lot. I only saw the full uncensored version years later! 😂

Samsung TV Plus is free and has a TON of content, both live and on demand.
You will have to sign up for an account, but Apple's "Hide My Email" works just fine. The signup process is VERY buggy, but press on, you'll get there.
Currently watching "Jobs" on my Mac. Thought that was apropos.
"[In Falling Down] Bill... represents every person who ever fell down and couldn't get back up again. Every person who followed the rules and did what everyone expected, and got punished for it. Who did everything right and still got screwed over by a system that was stacked against them.
Who spent their entire life striving for something better, only to discover that they were 'not economically viable'."
Just back from seeing #Furiosa. It’s a very different film from #FuryRoad in structure and pacing (Fury Road is peak “chase movie”, Furiosa is an epic decades-spanning revenge tale) but it’s as visually sumptuous and audacious as anything Miller has ever directed. 100% worth seeing on a big screen while you can.
I recently began watching this magnificent series called 'Heeramandi' and I am already in love with it's cinematography and aesthetics ❤️
You should definitely give it a watch!
