    Only other thread I saw is long dead so I'm making another. Plus there's an occasion.

    They've finally returned.
    http://bloody-disgusting.com/news/3309345/breaking-benjamin-announces-return/

    It's honestly a little surreal for me. I had come to the place in my mind where I assumed they would never be back after all of the legal trouble and there being no news for so long even after it was settled. I'm indescribably excited.

    However because of the entirely different lineup minus Ben, I'm both anxious about and excited for the future of the band. Given that Ben is the primary song-writer I doubt their music will be affected too much, though it's still very sad that the other guys are gone.

    Can't wait to finally be getting new stuff from one of my long-time favorite bands again.

    I finally finished listening to their other albums. After giving them a second or third chance, I can say that I certainly overlooked a lot of great songs the first time around. I'll have to keep listening to have a fully-formed opinion but I'm glad I gave them another try. Though after one listen, none of the albums topped Sufferer or Appeal.

    I think I'd rank them like this:
    Sufferer
    Appeal
    RPM/Siren Song
    The Unraveling
    Endgame

    I didn't put The Black Market on the list because I honestly have no idea what I think about that one just yet. I wasn't severely underwhelmed like I was with Endgame, but I was certainly caught off guard because it's so different. I think? I don't know. Something about it is weird to me. And Long Forgotten Songs had a couple of really great songs and a lot I don't care about at all. I think I could come to like Siren Song almost as much as Sufferer if I keep listening to it. I just listened to Swing Life Away and then Rumors which are both wonderful.

    I listened to Sufferer today and I'm always worried that it won't hold up as much as I'd like but it always does. Even after all this time I'm still loving it. Such a good album. Only song I don't care for on it is Prayer of the Refugee.

    this isn't nearly as ugly in person as it is in pictures.
    it actually looks kinda cool. has a holo slip which helps. was expecting to not like it.
    but it uses that type of case that i dont prefer which is a downer. not a big deal though.
    and thankfully its not eco-friendly and doesnt have that dumb recycle thing in the case. hate that.

    but im going to defend man of steel. again. I heard someone say something interesting in defense of the movie so naturally im going to adopt it as my own and give zero credit.


    Someone described Man of Steel as being an alternate universe Superman. The movie assumes you already know who Superman is and how he operates, because you do, and takes a different approach to classic ideas and tropes because you're expected to know that this is different and not the real, default Superman. The problem is that it's a movie and will be treated as the Superman for years to come, and not a comic that is separate from an ongoing continuity and free to do whatever it wants. It's hardly an accessible film because people have certain ideas of what Superman is, but they might not realize that these ideas are largely influenced by the older movie franchise, and perhaps not the "source material" (I'm not comfortable saying that regarding comics but you get the point), and that Superman stories in the "source material" are at times a very different thing than what they might expect. Did you know that Superman comics are pretty hard science fiction stories? How much the sci fi is emphasized varies depending on the run, but at their core, Superman stories are science fiction stories and Man of Steel plays this element up more than any Superman movie or show before it, which could alienate some viewers. I also take issue with people saying it's a "dark" film. They're not wholly wrong, but I think they overlook how optimistic the film ultimately is and are either not understanding or are ignoring that this is a Superman who has yet to fully develop his mo. (And I would say Returns is darker in places anyway and is not even close to being as optimistic. Not that I dislike Returns.) I'm inclined to think that people who don't like this movie see a very different movie than people who do like it. I think the people who don't like it see it as an extension of the trend to make characters all dark and gritty and joyless, and perhaps there is some of that here, but that's not what I see at all. What I see is a classic sci-fi alien invasion movie that attempts to explore an iconic character in a way that's never been done on screen and give credence to why he is the way he is. I love it. You don't have to.


    also im only talking about ideas and certain story elements. im not talking about storytelling or filmmaking.

    i've been in a really big superman kick lately so that's why this thread exists.
    and it makes me sad seeing people trash this movie.
