    I love how Felix is on the front lines in a full-on firefight with multiple enemies and Matt is moaning about being useless behind a door and Will is doing opium under a kitchen table, occasionally lobbing molotovs and missing. It's literally just like the podcast.

    In a way, Lovecraftian mythos is the perfect allegory for WASP mindset.
    Both profess a hierarchy of race, both are contingent upon the mind's ability to shape reality, and both are steeped in an all-consuming terror of inconceivable otherworldly horrors.

    This makes me feel hella badly for Matt. He sounds miserable. Meanwhile, Felix clearly can do no wrong. It must be like when your older sibling is just schooling you in a game and any possible joy is just ripped from it.

    Am I just imagining a similarity or does it sound like the occasionally repeating ascending chord in the Gran Torino theme (most easily heard at 1:25:47) is a major version of the frequently repeating ascending chord in the Saw theme (1:20:21)?
    I'm hoping to hear some music theory nerds weigh in on this bizarre coincidence.

    • @TheCyborgk
      @TheCyborgk 4 роки тому +14

      Damn you have a good ear for not being a music nerd... So you are close, but the precise difference is:
      (1) c d e, c d e, d e f
      (2) d e f, d e f, e f g
      these are not chords, they are scale fragments, BUT both can be derived from the C major scale, only since the second theme starts on D, the ii of C major which is a minor chord, it does indeed imply minor versus major

      It's played at the ending of the Simpsons episode when Homer has an insanely hallucinatory trip after eating an ultra-hot chili pepper. IIRC the episode's ending scene is also a reference to the end of "Caddyshack," when Rodney Dangerfield says "Hey everybody, we're all going to get laid!" (El Viaje Misterioso del Homer" is the title, something like that. So an obvious choice in this context.
