  • Bleach soundtrack help?

    Hi

    There's a kind of opera-like music used in the later episodes (I'm talking eps 200 and above). Does anyone know the titlte of that particular track?

    Also, there's a very cool almost-metal song they included around the same time (around ep200), and it can be heard especially during major fight scene (like with Kanpachi at one point). Anyone know the title of that one?

    I really appreciate it!

    Note: I'm not talking about OPs or EDs (opening songs and ending songs)

  • Need help identifying a mythical creature?

    I can't think of the name of that one-legged mythical creature that lights the way for travellers with a lantern (I think) making them believe it will guide them to where they need to go but instead makes them lose their way on purpose... Can anyone help?

  • To anime connoisseurs...?

    Does anyone remember a realy old anime show set in Finland? It's about a little girl who lives with her grandparents on their farm and she takes the cows out every morning to the pasture. She then has to leave home and work on a bigger ranch as a cow herder. She gets into all kinds of trouble and makes friends...bla bla bla. Then she is hired by a rich women to take care of her son, and they all eventually move to Helsinki where she is allowed to attend school and become educated... Throughout the whole thing, she is waiting for her mother, who had to leave home to make money, to come back and find her so they can restore their family...

    Ring any bells? Any at all? I'd love to find it again, it was an old favorite of mine, but I have no idea what it's called in English, or in the original Japanese.

    Thanks

    What I mean to say is that a wind rose suddenly, but I want to use the word "gust". So can you say that "a gust blew suddenly"? Or is it "a gust rose suddenly"?

  • Can anyoe help my find The One Ring?

    Your Question

    I need help finding The One Ring?

    Does anyone know where I can get a decent replica of the One Ring for under $30? And by decent, I mean one that looks like the real thing and that won't come apart when I put it on.

    My first thought was ebay; there are some pretty good deals on there, but I'd like to know what people think of ebay, reliabilty-wise and service-wise.

    If you know any other reliable websites that I could count on for quick delivery, and most importantly, honesty, I'd be much obliged.

  • To Tolkien afficionados, if there be any?

    I've been very much in the Tolkien zone of late, reading a lot and translating runes and whatnot! I'd like some fellow fans' opinion on a couple of questions that have been bothering me.

    First, can anyone explain to me how it is that Gandalf had the third Elven Ring of Power? Was he an elf? Were they somehow his kin or something?

    Second, to anyone that has read the Hobbit, can you, without revealing too much of the plot, if there be anything to reveal, as I am only halfway through it, answer the following question? I was translating the runes on Thror's Map earlier today, and I noticed that the note about the "Three-foot door" is signed with two identical initials, which in runes have the value of "Th". I assume the first "Th" stands for Thror, but what about the second?

    And this last one is for those who have the Harper Collins edition of the Simlarillion. I was translating the "en relief" Dwarvish runes on the top and bottom of the front and back covers and noticed something strange. The Runes read "Quenta Silmarillion the History of the Silmarils" but the rune that should have the values of "th" in "the" is actually the one that has the value of "dh", as idicated in the Appendix of The Return of the King of the same edition. Any thoughts?

    Many thanks!

  • So I haven't seen any questions about HBP....?

    I have not seen many discussions about the movie...maybe I haven't been spending enough time on here, but what did everyone think of the movie?

    Were you expecting disappointment?

    Were you pleasantly surprised or not?

    What was good about it? What did you like?

    What did you hate and what made you mad?

    As for me, I thought the direction was surprisingly good. David Yates really shocked me. I hated what he did on OotP. But this one was very good. The effects were amazing. I thought it was well filmed, and the acting has improved on the part of the trio and the younger actors. I was pleasantly surprised at times... Definitely better than the last one.

    HOWEVER, the script could have been, and should have been a lot better.

    First of all, the scenes they deleted were such a waste: no Dursleys, no funeral, no battle at Hogwarts, no Gaunts... Hagrid only appears a couple of times and they managed to blend Madame Pomfrey completely into the background!

    Second, they added many unnecessary scenes instead of keeping the important ones! For instance, when does the Burrow get burned down? Why would the Death Eaters come in, lure Harry into the bushes and then do nothing? Isn't their top priority to kill him?!? Then there's the first scene. What the hell does that stupid girl have to do with anything? Instead of the funny scene at the Dursleys, we see hormonal Harry at the platform, not to mention he's not even supposed to leave Privet Drive. Another thing that bothered me is how most of the time we have the trio talking about their love problems. I know they are important, but they come in at the worst time! Like at the end when the trio were at the top of the tower talking about Dumbledore, who had just died, the conversation just turns to Ginny and all that crap. So badly done!

    Did anyone notice how some things just didn't make sense... Like why did Dumbledore take Harry to the Weasleys unannounced and just leave him? What's the point of that. In the book, they were supposed to know he was coming and it was supposed to be for his own protection. Then there's Fenrir. If you haven't read the book, you wouldn't understand anything about who he really is!

    No Fleur and Bill, no Scrimgeour! Instead all that bullshit about Lavender. She was in it too much! And the only action scene was the burning of the Burrow, which never happens, and they cut out the most vital one: the battle at the end.

    What's up with that? Who agrees that they've done it once again?

    P.S. the music was great.

  • Any Nightwish fans out there?

    I've noticed that there are very few Nightwish questions being asked and thought it was a shame, since they are epic...plus I was bored. In any case, we can all agree that they deserve a mention.

    Alright, a few questions about your Nightwish experience. Answer whichever you feel like.

    1. What was the first Nightwish song you ever heard?

    2. What is your favorite Nightwish song to date?

    3. Which album do you think is their most powerful one yet?

    4. What is your favorite album by them of all time?

    5. How did you get into them? (If there's no interesting story behind that one, you don't have to answer)

    6. Have you ever seen them live?

    7. Who's your favorite memeber of the band? (former and present)

    For me:

    1. Stargazers

    2. If I had to pick one and only one: Gethesmane

    3. Oceanborne

    4. Oceanborne and Once

    5. I picked up their album at a music store once, heard it once, thought it was okay, and a bit scary, then forgot about it. Then my friend bought me the End of An Era DVD and I fell in love with them! That was one heck of an experience! The DVD is gold.

    6. I would give anything to see them live! If you have, lucky you!

    7. Tarja and Jukka.

    If no one answers this, I will lose all faith in the Nightwish Fandom.

  • Old movies and musicals please!?

    I've been getting into old movies lately, especially old musicals. I've seen Oklahoma, the Wizard of Oz, The King and I, My Fair Lady, The Sound of Music, Gone with the Wind... the really obvious ones... I need some titles if anyone knows of any classics that I ought to see while I'm in the old movie mood! I'm already considering West Side Story, Carousel, Sabrina, The Fiddler on the Roof... But I want more!

    Thanks a bunch!

  • I just bought a new USB flash memory disk, but before I open it...?

    I wanted to know if A-Data is a recommended brand. Will it last long? Is it easily damaged? I don't mean is it breakable, but does it function well?

    Also, I got the 8GB one with, supposedly, a lifetime waranty. Is $37 a good price, or did I get ripped off? I'd like to know before I actually open it. Should I exchange it or did I get a good deal?

  • The Lord of the Rings, a couple of questions about the book?

    I'm in the middle of reading the book. But I think I missed a couple of details. When is it mentioned that Gandalf's hat is pointy. I didn't notice that anywhere, though I was paying particular attention to the description of Gandalf. I was also wondering if Legolas is ever described as being blonde. I don't think the latter is ever mentioned.

    I would really appreciate any confirmation or negation, and if possible, a reference to the text. I don't mean page number, just around what part of the story.
