6·1 year agoWho knows? Seals can also mimic human speech.
3·1 year agoYou have my pity. Americans, in general, hate licorice, but thankfully it is still available.
I love anise. So much. Do you like the salty licorice they like in Northern Europe? I can’t get enough of that shit. Not just salty and licorice, but with a strong undertone of ammonia!
Also, three weeks ago, I went from a country that used only stupid weights and measures (America) to a country that only partially does (Britain) and it has not been easy. I don’t care of Celsius is rational, all I know is that it’s going to be a high of 4 today and of 12 on Thursday and that means nothing to me.
That sounds cacophonous to the point that it would drive me insane, so I might skip Japan on my travel itinerary.
I have no idea. Neither wake me up since I’m already awake.
With a bottle of green.
No, the most important element is that it is added after the fact. It is a *post-*production tool.
You can call that planted actors or audience participation. Which were things that were probably done long before him. But it’s not the same as a laugh track, which is a specific thing.
I think you’re being a bit pedantic. They didn’t understand that they had any utility.
Sorry, but since when does “sounds like/has the same effect” mean it’s the same thing? Is a recording of a trumpet played on a speaker next to an orchestra the same as a trumpeter in an orchestra even though the effect is the same?
Hiring people to laugh at your jokes is not a laugh track. Saying he invented the laugh track is just not true.
How exactly would you invent the laugh track if you didn’t understand the concept of recorded sound since it literally requires recorded sound?
This is like saying the Mayans came up with the car despite not understanding the wheel.
No, he didn’t do that either. He had no concept of the possibility of recorded sound. Don’t get your history information from YouTube videos.
No he didn’t, the laugh track requires recorded sound. He did not have that technology.
I was a big fan of utilizing Common Sense Media when my daughter was younger. I don’t think it did then, but I’m not surprised it has a free apps section now: https://www.commonsensemedia.org/lists/free-apps-for-kids
Please. They’re called “little people garden dusters.”
Hagrid was played by human actor Robbie Coltrane. You can tell because he looks and sounds exactly like Robbie Coltrane.
(The late Mr. Coltrane was apparently a dick… so I guess being cast in Cracker was apt.)
