DISCUSSION People misunderstanding 2 Big to Rig

408 Upvotes

While there are many very valid critiques of the movie (the odd mixing and cut songs being very common and understandable ones), the people being upset that it was so different from RHRN aren't realizing that TF did not set out with the same intentions for the movies. He had no intention of recreating the first movie. RHRN was very clearly a movie with a plot to move the lore forward. 2BTR is, in my opinion, supposed to be a more artistic film as a thank you to the fans.

People being upset that there wasn't lore are 1) missing the point, and 2) being upset they didn't get something that wasn't advertised. I think it was pretty clear with all the promo content that this was just a recorded concert.The first movie was marketed as being lore based and having a story. No lore was teased for this movie, so why are you feeling entitled to something you were never offered? What was teased was the behind the scenes portions and getting to see how the show actually works, which is what we got in between concert scenes.

A similar point is to be made for the people being upset about the different filming style. Because RHRN was more theatrical, it makes sense that it's shot in a more "music video" style. Again, it was a more traditional movie with the scenes with Sister and Nihil (as well as there were screens taking place after the concert). 2BTR was shot on 16 mm film, and that was a marketing point since the beginning. That really solidifies that this movie was meant to be a more creative art film.

I've also seen some people being upset at how audible the crowd is. While there are other things to say about the mixing, when you think about the film as a thank you to the fans who made Tobias' dreams come true, I think it makes perfect sense that the fans are able to be heard. They're the ones this is for, let them be heard as they're having an amazing time.

The film at its core, is exactly what was advertised and the fans had incorrect expectations that are now tainting their appreciation for what the movie actually is: a beautiful thank you gift before a well deserved break.

Anyways, I loved the movie and hope Tobias enjoys his very well deserved break. The real ones will still be here when Ghost returns

For those who don’t know Dan Murrell, he’s a YouTuber who makes videos about movie criticism and the box office. On his video about the box office this past weekend, he listed 2 Big 2 Rig as the highest grossing movie in a limited theatrical release (less than 1000 theaters) this past weekend. Here is a link to the video. 2 Big 2 Rig is mentioned at 32:37.

Children of Reddit!

It's been a while since our last post, but Papa's been on a vacation and he went straight back to work after he came back.

We just wrapped up our acoustic live sets - it was an immense honor opening for the "2 Big to Rig" premieres in Serbian cinemas! We'll try and post some videos of it, although we don't have a lot.

Next up - a ritual in Zappa Barka in Belgrade on the 17th of September. Hope to see any of you that are in the region or those who want to stop by! It's going to be one of a kind - impossible to repeat due to many surprises, plot twists, even the duration of the whole show due to everything that will happen.

As it's been mentioned before - if you actually fly in to see us, please contact us via our email or instagram dms so we can prepare a welcome worthy of such a gesture!

Thank you and
Good Night

Bit over a year ago, I was new to painting with watercolor and managed a decent Pope Grittius for the Philly ritual that I posted here.

I've gotten a little better and a lot more experimental. Watercolor and a tiny bit of gouache to help the logo. Very fun piece to make.

I'm a recent convert to the Ministry and went to see 2 Big to Rig with 2 close friends on Thursday night. I change up my nails every week so I had to do something special for my new Favorite Band. Used a wide variety of nail polishes and stamping plates to get the details I wanted.

Pinky - Music waveform
Ring - Stained Glass Window (Glowed blue/purple under UV light)
Middle - Upside down Crucifixes (I have tremors in my hands that prevented me from doing the Grucifixes)
Index - Papa V Perpetua wearing his Papal crown
Thumbs - Lyrics from "Darkness at the Heart of My Love" - "Now paint a pair of eyes, and let's watch as they dry"

DISCUSSION TheWeeknd x Ghost Collab.

0 Upvotes

I’ve often thought about this potential collaboration, and honestly, I feel like The Weeknd × Ghost would be insanely fitting.

Both have such dark, theatrical aesthetics, and I could imagine them making something ridiculously fitting atmospheric together.

Think about the After Hours-style synth-pop mixed with Ghost’s theatrical occult rock with TheWeeknd’s moody verses leading into a huge falsetto chorus.

Then Ghost with their heavy guitars, organ, choir, and Tobias Forge’s vocals, along with similar themes of temptation, damnation, fame, excess, and slowly losing yourself and constant contrasting religious themes throughout both of their work.

I genuinely think their styles could complement each other.

Would you actually want to hear a The Weeknd × Ghost song? And what do you think it would sound?

DISCUSSION Comparing the live albums

72 Upvotes

I'm doing a deep dive into the live albums. After listening to chunks of "2 Big To Rig" on Apple Music (lossless), I'm starting to realize that if I'm being honest with myself, this just doesn't sound that good. I didn't want to believe it but, it's dangerously close to Person-With-Tape-Recorder quality. The album version anyway (I haven't seen the actual film yet).

So I wanted to go back and compare them. I actually think "Ceremony and Devotion" is probably the best-sounding of the three live albums, followed by "Rite Here Rite Now" and then "2 Big To Rig."

"Rite Here Rite Now" is really good. It's a very good recording and I think represents Tobias and his team wanting to show off the certified, recently-minted arena version of Ghost. But "Ceremony and Devotion" feels like Ghost's "Live After Death," the best one so far. A great live capture of the band's classic early material as Ghost was really breaking out. You can hear a band excited to be at the live album phase. I'll always support Tobias as he's so talented and he seems like such a lovely guy but outside of the movie, the "2 Big To Rig" recording feels almost unnecessary when a better live album just came out two years ago.

I linked to the three versions of "Square Hammer" below, but go and listen to the versions of "Cirice" or any other really essential Ghost standard and it's the same thing.

DISCUSSION On the Ghost hiatus

Ghost isn't going anywhere.

The contract with Loma Vista is done. 2B2R was the final record fulfilling the contract.

Whats going to happen is that he's going to partner up and create his own label. Its a money issue. The label is taking too large a share to run the concept as it is envisioned.

Another company is going to be made for merch. I guarantee its known about Merch quality especially at its cost.

What I hope he does is call up Posner and the two jam for a bit, or hell, take MCC on a short tour.

If I've missed any, please let me know! I'd love to expand my collection!
I was recently downloading a bunch of Ghost songs to MP3 which led me to try and find ever piece of art I could for the albums and singles. Thus, I wanted to share in case anyone else wants them as well (Though including the album art would exceed attachment capacity so only single covers are linked).

There were a few which were too low res for my standards (1200x1200) so I took them into Clip Studio Paint to attempt and upscale them. Among these is art for the single Rats which I couldn't find anywhere except on merch. I've included it here but I think I'll also post is separately to give it that extra bit of spotlight.

I don't know how Reddits image compression is, so if they look shitty let me know and I'll see if I can link the files through a file sharing service.

Hello all! I posted here awhile ago about some pins I was making for 2BTR and wanted to share the final product! I made about 15 in total and was able to give almost all of them out. I was a little nervous but everyone at the movie was super nice and amazing. One person even gave me their popcorn bucket and I was speechless. I plan on making more because I really enjoy doing things like these, just need some people who want them! I hope everyone who got a chance to see the movie enjoyed it (I did!!!) and more people get a chance to see it!! 💜
