Does anyone know what this instrument is called? Its like a Marimba but it is very large and made out of huge stones. Listen to that tone! haha Love it!
It’s a type of Vietnamese lithophone (literally rock sound instrument) called a đàn đá. Some ethnomusicologists think that these are likely the oldest type of man made instrument.
she looks like shes having fun lol this is bringing me joy
so you’re telling me that rock is actually the oldest genre
detective pikachu looks like a nightmare, literally speaking it looks like something i’d see in a nightmare about pokemon being real
and i can’t fucking wait to see it and see just how scary all of the other realistic pokemon will look. mr. mime looks horrifying. jigglypuff looks wrong and all hairy. some of the bird pokemon have realistic beaks and it looks really uncanny. the greninja has white in its eyes to match the cartoon model but it just makes it look scary since real frogs don’t have those and the greninja head is otherwise rendered so realistically. this movie is gonna be awesome and i can’t wait. it’s gonna be the Mario movie all over again.
look at this. the little hairs on his head. the horns look like blue carrots. his shoulders look like dodgeballs. the frighteningly humanoid hand inside of the glove that’s so frighteningly realistic looking that i can’t tell if it’s cgi. everything is rendered as if it actually has real-world weight and mass and it all droops under gravity appropriately. this is horrifying. they can’t have done this by accident. they know mr. mime is already terrifying and they decided to go all out. they have to be doing this on purpose and i can’t wait to see more.
