Yea this was Tyler talking out his ass. He loves the source, vibe xxl magazine on camera he has said this. Those were all just GATEKEPT ranking and list systems. The Source 5 mics etc. we’ve always done this in the culture for conversation and dialogue is just been democratized and everyone can do it now and see it

Charlamagne speaks on Tyler the Creator calling Top 5 lists wack:

“That’s part of the culture tho. Part of the culture is listening to this music…and we the people, we rank it…We rank the artists, we rank the albums that’s what we do it’s the same thing in sports”

GoPro says there is ‘substantial doubt’ it will be able to stay in business over the next year 📷

• Sales are down

• Costs are up — particularly memory chips, driven by demand from AI data centers

• Net losses have totaled over $500M in the past two years

Throwing my theory out now that Sekhmet and Begtse are in the Everywhen due to being subdued by their own pantheons and are seeking revenge for that.

Sekhmet famously had to be subdued by Ra after she became too violent toward humanity. Begtse was subdued and bound by Ekajati to curb his and his sister's power, a part of the story that turned them from their Mongolian roots into sworn protectors of Buddhism.

While in the original myths, both war gods were made passive by their pantheons, it's likely this story deals with them either being banished to Everywhen or killed by their brethren and seeking revenge.

Rothrock and Norton were phenomenal talents, but nothing they did in America ever came close to this level of complexity. The master behind the movement here is Tony Leung Siu-Hung, brother of the late Bruce Liang. Tony was a pro at making non-Chinese look and fight like Chinese opera-trained performers. He did this with very smart choreography and camera placement. Notice how the shapes here are mostly isolated to the upper or lower body.

In the 70s, the style was still mostly theatrical, and the entire body had to make shapes. Opera footwork is notoriously difficult; without opera training you just can't do it. But here he gives the performers a lot of leeway with the framing. Only the upper or lower body really have to worry about making shapes. And it looks fantastic and contemporary. Most of us can't do this, but we can kind of believe we can.

Another tool Tony Leung employed well was the edit. Many of his contemporaries like Corey Yuen, Meng Hoi, and Billy Chan were tied up with Sammo Hung, and their montage styles were all pretty similar. Same with Yuen Wo Ping's troupe Yuen Ga Baan. Tony's style is really no different, though his phrases are a bit longer at 10-20 moves (Sammo rarely went over 8 moves). He also relies on lots of impact, wires, and environmental interaction to break up the action, and being quite a kicker himself he was no stranger to leg shapes. And he had no reservations about putting a dude in a wig to sell a difficult move. The result is something super flavorful and eye-catching.

Tony Leung made an early entry into America with No Retreat 3, Superfights, and Blood moon in the 90s, which all have amazing fights for B films. He was well ahead of the curve. Ultimately, American stuntmen adopted this style but not until the early 2000s after Sammo and Yuen Wo Ping basically did the same thing here. You could argue that Tony Leung was the real pioneer, though.

For the next year or so, we gotta hear that no one wants to play a woman in God of war, and then when Laufey ends up selling well, we gotta hear how the sale numbers are fake.

The origins of "Standing on the Square" to the "B-Boy Stance". It was first manifested by the Fruit of Islam (FOI), then from Allah and the Elders to the Firstborns of the 5% Nation, then adopted in Hip-Hop culture, where it was called "the B-Boy Stance." From @wakeelallah
