![]() ![]() Mike Flanagan had already built a reputation as a rock-steady horror filmmaker by 2016, but the sense of "holy crap, this guy can do anything" became set in stone once he took on a prequel to a critically-derided movie about an evil ouija board and made one of the scariest movies of the last decade. Choose or Die is honestly a lot of fun and a great casual watch for horror buffs and novices alike! - Brynna Arens Its short 84-minute runtime is an asset, not a hindrance, allowing the movie to dive straight into the horror without unnecessary fluff dragging it down. ![]() ![]() Choose or Die feels both nostalgic and fresh, paying homage to classic video games while delivering a narrative that hasn’t been done to death. But as they learn of the malevolent forces that went into the game’s conception, they realize that winning and staying alive may not be as easy as they think. Forced to continue playing, Kayla and her friend Isaac ( Asa Butterfield) try to find a way to stop the game for good - it is just code after all. It has the ability to warp reality and force Kayla to make deadly decisions that affect people in real life. However, the game is more than just a simple choose-your-own-adventure meets horror campaign. When Kayla ( Iola Evans) discovers an old ‘80s computer game that comes with a yet-to-be-claimed $100,000 cash prize for anyone who beats it, her curiosity and family’s need for money drive her to give the game a try. Reprising the role of Pearl is Goth, whose performance in both films is award-worthy. The film had a sequel come out just months after its release, Pearl, which tells the origin story of X’s villain, Pearl. X stars Mia Goth ( Suspira), Jenna Ortega ( Scream), Brittany Snow ( Pitch Perfect), Kid Cudi ( The Harder They Fall), Martin Henderson ( Smokin’ Aces), and Owen Campbell ( Super Dark Times). One by one, the friends are picked off by their mysterious hosts, whose background is slowly revealed as the plot unfolds. The film takes place in 1979, in the days way before Airbnb, so the crew’s hosts, Pearl and Howard, are anything but hospitable. The film tells the story of a group of friends who rent a cabin outside of town to film their adult movie. Produced by A24, X is written and directed by Ti West ( Pearl). Read Our ReviewHorror fans will absolutely love X, while those who prefer not to watch an absolute blood bath should probably stay away. ![]()

![]() ![]() Ivy has received a major overhaul as well, giving her three base stances depending whether her sword is in solid, whip, or coiled state not to mention completely reworking her command throws. Taki more or less receives tweaks and refinements while Tira, for example, now changes moods mid-fight which affects how her combos pan out. I kinda wish that was still in the game, but it doesn't affect the fighting that much (I used it more for aesthetics when I could get away with it.) And of course, new moves are introduced for old characters some more drastic than others. In SCII Taki had a nice little 8-way run combo, 2,2+A,A,A, that looked cool (kinda useless against veteran players, but served me well against everyone else). Do I miss the deleted moves? The static uppercut from the above example? Nope. In fairness, SCIII tried this and felt like a step back from II however, IV feels far more polished and solid. The static uppercut was axed, and the combo-able uppercut replaces it entirely. For example, in SCII Taki's 3+B* was a static uppercut move, while 1,1+B* could be chained into her possession stance for more options. The aforementioned introspection extended even into the fighting engine where the excessive number of (mostly useless) moves from Soul Calibur II are consolidated into a smaller list. Do the character's outfits look god-awful? Indeedy-do! Now ask me how the game plays. Did Namco skimp on the extra features? Oh, absolutely! Is the story complete and utter nonsensical crap like most other games (especially fighting games) that hit #4 (technically #5) in the series? You bet. I want to play a fighting game that cuts through the crap, cuts through the superficial fluff, cuts through the cheap propaganda I want a fighting game to focus once again on fighting. Especially with how fighting games lately have decided to throw everything at the player (including the kitchen sink) to the point that the core fighting elements feel more and more neglected (Soul Calibur III, MK Armageddon). With a few glaring exceptions (Yoda, Vader, Apprentice, Bonus Characters I'm looking at you), Soul Calibur IV is what I've been waiting for from a fighting game for some time now. The Tutorial would have been nice to keep for newcomers, and an adjustable difficulty would be just dandy in case players get bored of fighting the ridiculously easy AI (I guess this is a step up from SCIII's ridiculously unforgiving AI.) I would trade all the guest and bonus characters for those two features, but whatever. It feels like Soul Calibur did some serious introspection - a line by line audit of all its features - and asked itself, "Do I really need this to be a good fighting game?" A noble, if flawed, effort. Say goodbye to "Versus Team Battle", "Battle Theater" where you could set the computer to fight itself, the Tutorial (?), the extra fighting styles from SCIII's Create a Soul feature, and curiously also missing is the ability to adjust the difficulty in Arcade Mode (?!). ![]() Gone is the pointless (not to mention redundant) "Time Attack" mode. Over and over I found myself asking that same question does it really matter? Gone is the "Soul Arena" and the fancy battles where you collect coins, fight a giant statue. The point of the game is the interactive exchange and not watching pretty cinematics. Then after a moment, I thought does it really matter? This is a fighting game. Namco only featured a sparse handful of characters whereas previous entries have showcased all the characters. When I first popped in SCIV and watched the obligatory opening cinematic, I felt a twinge of disappointment. ![]() ![]() Manage the executives’ complex and ever-changing calendars.Provide comprehensive administrative support to the company’s executive team.Executive Administrative Assistant, Widget Company, San Francisco, CA (2015-present).Jane is an organized professional with a strong work ethic who is adept at multitasking and managing competing priorities.

As it turned out, I think just about all my plugins worked fine with presets / pseudo-presets, and in fact many (eg Diva, ImpOscar2, VB3) continued sounding held notes after the patch change, rather than muting. I actually went through all my plugins and tested to see how well they worked using Cantabile’s preset / pseudo-preset drop-down, and whether they required “Whole bank” state behaviour for changes. For that reason, I don’t try to use presets, pseudo-presets, or banks because I don’t understand how they work with Omnisphere well enough to trust the process during a live show. But since Omnisphere uses significant computer resources, I would be interested in hearing from people who do.ĭespite Brad’s excellent reply to another post, I am often unsure what exactly gets saved when I saved the Rack, and understand that it is different for each plugin. And if I need Omnisphere in another Rack (regardless of whether it’s in the same Song or SetList, or not), I use a new instance of Omnispere.ĭespite Brad’s excellent reply to another post, I am often unsure what exactly gets saved when I saved the Rack, and understand that it is different for each plugin.

Go back to Cantabile and save the Rack, and use it within a song.Go into the Omnisphere plugin (from Cantabile), either select an existing patch or create a new one, edit as needed, add additional patches onto other Parts (up to 8 in the Multi) as needed, and finally save the Multi.Create a new rack to contain this new “sound”.I do use Omnisphere with Cantabile, but I am probably not using it in a very efficient way.
