The Sacrifice, 1986

[yesssssss-anime]

I seriously hope that Hollywood media just fails for a while so companies will finally realise how important their actors and writers are. I hope they come to see that ai can’t be used for everything. Also I find it funny how these companies think that we’re not going to support the strikers just because we won’t get some new Hollywood media for a while. I think they forgot that Hollywood isn’t the only place in the world creating amazing tv shows and movies. We have k-dramas, Thai-drama, anime, Tollywood and Bollywood movies. This isn’t the end of entertainment for us. If we don’t want to watch foreign media we still have old shows and movies that are great. I mean I can finally start watching those old Hollywood movies I’ve been planning to watch. So sure threaten us with the lack of media…we still having everything we need. The only person who’s in trouble because of the strikes is the goddamn companies. So screw you and have fun not making any money.

In the Mood for Love (2000)

He remembers those vanished years. As though looking through a dusty window pane, the past is something he could see, but not touch. And everything he sees is blurred and indistinct.

#MovieMonday "Le roi des Champs-Élysées,” The final scene divides opinion amongst fans as Buster Keaton smiles - he was not so keen on ending with a grin & supposedly the French audiences booed. What say you?

Soldier of Orange (1977) oh hey, looks like Paul Verhoeven's WWII Dutch resistance drama is free to watch on Tubi! Been hoping that some of his 70's / 80's dutch films got some kind of re-release over here but this will do for now. And hey, they also got Black Book, his spiritual sequel / companion piece (...and maybe his best movie).

Another Eat-the-Rich Film, "Parasite" is an Exploration of Class at Its Deadliest

The wait is (finally) over! My review of Bong Joon-Ho's materpiece, "Parasite" is now live!

Content Warning: Parasite contains depictions of severe class disparity, violence, grooming, and extreme manipulation. Viewer discretion is advised. Spoilers for Parasite ahead! In January of 2020, the English-centered film industry was put on blast for not giving foreign language films their proper flowers. Director Bong Joon-Ho, already celebrated by Hollywood and audiences alike for previous…

Also. Speaking of Leading Lady. I told my gf I had watched it and that it was a mixture of English and African language. She was shocked and replied “you hate watching foreign movies” and I had to correct her.

I enjoy watching foreign films. Especially when they’re in a different language. What I despise, is when a foreign films gets voiced over by an American. Just give me the subtitles. I don’t want to watch a film where the voice doesn’t match the lips that are moving. It drives me insane. If that makes sense
