probably my favorite Aronofsky movie along with Pi Same! I think a lot of it has to do with it being a kind of a sad, sappy and dark from the start or something, I don’t know. I just feel like people don’t necessarily like the vibe and mood of it (as if something like Requiem for a dream is any more hopeful or upbeat). It’s a very powerful movie.
It is! Clint Mansell and Aronofsky are a match made in heaven, but The Fountain is one of favorite soundtracks of all time and the one I listen to the most. I don’t tend to listen to soundtracks all that much, but I find myself listening to the Fountain all the time
I was honestly a little shocked to find The Fountain rated so low, Tomatometer (fuck the tomatometer anyway, audience score is where it’s usually at) was 52% with scathing reviews, the audience score fortunately remedied the situation with 74% cause I was seriously starting to look for another site.
And for it’s opposite: The Blair Witch Project is 86% vs 56%. I haven’t seen it in ages, have been planning to, but it was one of my favorite movies for a while.
Well I mean, while Gen-Z humor and memes are mostly a lot more abstract and surreal and while there are elements of that in the beans meme it’s not really just that. It’s a concept piece. In a similar way Warhol’s Campbell’s Soup was and similar pieces of art.
The whole point was to make a point about something, namely, like the title of the post lays it out itself “I heard that lemmy will upvote anything. This is literally just a can of fucking beans”. What it says about the lemmy community, maybe nothing, maybe it’s just a fucking can of beans and there really is no intended or inherent deeper meaning and that is irrelevant really.
My point being, it’s kind of all things you talked about, but even more, but also just beans. Schrödinger’s beans.
Castlevania, Zelda and Silent Hill (though I’d say all first 3) mentioned so I’m gonna say Alundra. Sure it’s very Zelda/JRPG, but that game had some amazing music that just sticks with you.
Also a little tongue in cheek, but Adventures of Lolo. I’m not sure if there’s just one song throughout the trilogy, but it sure feels like it. Weirdly it doesn’t bother you. It’s like a hypnosis that just makes you play one more level. One more try. Kind of like the Tetris soundtrack, but it never gets old.
