Ashamed to be associated with this school. One of the worst pieces of writing I have ever read. The inability of Galloway to make a single positive comment about Lynch without a dissenting jab is abhorrent. Not to mention the multiple inaccuracies about reception.
4/5 of the best cinematography nominees from last year’s Oscars were shot on film. None of them opened their movie with an announcement that they were shot on 35mm. When a cinematographer uses the proper tools to tell the story, the format should be unimportant to the audience.
@hzjoe03 How do they expect people who don’t speak English as their first language to know this book? Do they think all schools teach this book because that’s what schools do in their country?
Truly unfortunate that this movie is almost entirely tarnished by one of the worst performances I have ever seen in my entire life (Tiffany Hadish), because I don’t ever think I can verbally describe how it felt to watch the Abu Ghraib sequence for the first time.
There are 16 year olds who have lived more life than some 30 year olds. Acting as though your age is equivalent to your life experience or critical thinking skills is absurd.
The Lemkin Institute has had it with the cynical lies and propaganda from Israel and the USA. One can have different views about the definition of genocide, but one may not use definitional disputes to deny genocide. If a genocide may be occurring, every nation is compelled by customary law to try to stop it.
Let us be clear: Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. The US is complicit in genocide. These are not political statements. They are statements that are made from knowledge and experience. Nevertheless, you do not need a PhD , a law degree, or X-ray vision to see the genocidal dimensions of Israel’s carnage in Gaza. It is clear in the behavior of the state and its military, on full display in yesterday’s horrific bombardment of a Rafah camp.
But even if there were legitimate doubts about Israel’s genocide, there is no doubt that Israel is committing atrocity crimes of the most barbaric kind. Israel must be stopped. Israel must be stopped now.
We are disgusted by Western leaders, especially in the USA, Germany, and the UK. They have demonstrated not only that they don’t care one bit about genocide prevention and human rights, but also that they are willing to allow an ally to commit atrocity crimes while they offer material and diplomatic support. It is reprehensible and the individuals involved in this gaslighting campaign should be deeply ashamed. They should also be put on trial.
Humanity has a choice: Either we decide that our children can all be killed whenever a superior force alleges that “terrorists” are among us, or we decide that under no circumstances will we allow these superior forces to lay waste to our world any longer.
We each must choose and act accordingly. The watershed moment is now.
I can't believe I'm writing this. RIP to the forever talented Dick Pope, my favorite cinematographer, and the author of my favorite shot in film history.
People’s opinions on new Wes Anderson has to be a litmus test on media literacy. Asteroid City is probably the most personal, openhearted, and sincere work of his career.
I’ve said it all before on here, but it’s very hard not to notice that all the emotional sincerity and rawness that makes Tenenbaum and early Anderson spectacular disappeared when he stopped writing with Owen Wilson.
@JuiceThousand@JakeVk Sure, and my point is that your critique of the van is shallow because people celebrating physical media and art is a good thing. Yeah, might be a bit corny. But this is a good sign and is what it looks like when people come together to have fun over art they love. Lighten up.
In a time when physical media is being replaced in front of our eyes with constantly shifting (and price changing) subscription services, this is actually a really awesome thing to witness. Shame on criterion for… making acclaimed films accessible to own permanently?
The music video for my song "The Third Funeral" will be releasing this Friday, August 30th at noon. It is directed and edited by me. I hope you enjoy it.
Along with the release of this video will be another cool music related announcement, but you'll see what that is later!
If recreating a dead man’s face and voice without his explicit permission simply for some brownie points from fans is what you consider to be regular fan service, I don’t know what to tell you.
After many years of good times and fond memories, it's far passed due. I have officially made the switch from AOTY to RYM. From now onward, all of my album ratings/reviews will be posted here:
