I'm watching the seminal 1931 film of Frankenstein and wondering about the now-familiar shape of the monster's head. Does the book suggest anything of the sort? Was it original with that production? Is there any known reason for it? —Tamfang 03:58, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
As I listen to more of the 3rd wave stuff from my childhood, I see veins of resemblance between the bands, e.g. Aquabats, Reel Big Fish and the like. There's just this certain quality I can't pin down...I suspect that it has to do with a similar chord progression or the way the horn lines are written. So I ask this---in the 3rd wave ska idiom, are there certain commonly used chord progressions? I'd also like to know if the horn lines are written more in unison or in harmony.
Oh, and this is sort of a random question, but somewhat to do with ska...in Tony Hawk Pro Skater (the first one) there's this song I remember that I can't recall the title of...it started off with "Ay ya ya ya YA!" and then the drums and everything else came in. No horns as I remember either...Aquaman590 04:50, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
3D RPGs generally have the same perspective, what is it called? I'm not thinking of a top down perspective. In this perspective you get a full view of the character. It's seen in many games like Final Fantasy 6. Doppelganger 19:22, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
It's called dimetric projection, though it's often mislabeled as isometric. Our article on isometric projection covers part of this issue. Also, note that the "two-thirds perspective" is talking about the camera angle on the dimetric projection (30° and 45°). — Kieff | Talk 01:28, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
In the video for Hands Clean by Alanis Morisette is that Robert Picardo (aka "The Doctor" from Star Trek:Voyager) playing the record exec/A&R man? Video link is [1], time index is 1:09 to 1:17. Exxolon 19:49, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
Random question. Some time ago there was an advert for a Peugeot car - possibly a 407 after some googling, but just as likely not - that featured a cover of True Colors in the background. The advert involved a girl, a guy and a shark attack :-p I've looked in the past and not satisfied myself that I've found the correct version (just imo plain better than other versions). If anyone could tell me the artist... I'm just worried it was only done for TV and I won't be able to find a recording. Rawling4851 22:03, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
I like the Naruto manga. I've calculated when Naruto's Part II aura would end by putting in the number of the final chapter of Kakashi Gaiden (244) and the number of the final chapter of Part I (238). I thought that if Part I ended with 238 chapters, then Part II may end with 238 chapters as well. My little math problem with the chapter numbers equaled to an answer: chapter 482. So, would chapter 482 be where the Part II saga ends in Naruto? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sirdrink13309622 (talk • contribs) 23:39, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
