In 1950, a small Mexican town was filled with visitors for the fiesta; however what they didn’t suspect was that some of those visitors were from the future. Two of them were vacationers from 2155, who had been enjoying things not available in the war torn future. Not wanting to return to the bleak future and their roles in weapons design, they decided to defect and stay in the past. The other visitors were hunters from the future sent to bring them back. (“To the Future” Dimension X, Radio)

"Comboio do medo" (Sorcerer) - drive.
Esse filme de 1977, do diretor Willian Friedkin, apareceu bastante pra mim esse ano pelo algoritmo. Mesmo diretor de Operação França e O Exorcista. Uma amiga compartilhou um drive cheio de pirataria e lá estava esse título. Peguei pra ser o último do ano.
depois de ver: grande filme! PQP! a cena do poster, da passagem da ponte é espetacular. a história tem seu tempo e conta a história com poucos diálogos. hoje seria tudo CGI.

'The Burglar' – Dan Duryea sweats it out on Prime Video
In a genre filled with the lurid and the vicious, The Burglar (1957) is as sweaty and tawdry as they come, a pulp crime thriller set in the seedy lower depths of low-rent crooks and raw passions. Dan Duryea centers the film with an easy, almost world-weary confidence as Nat Harbin, a career criminal and veteran safecracker with so much confidence that he chats up a couple of uniform cops who…

Establishing their dynamic is fun. To me
This is my penumbra oc, Draper! They’re a dodgy trader by trade, and dodger of many taxes. Nureyev (and by Nureyev I mean ORLANDO) sells a lot of the stuff he steals through Draper’s travelling shop.

Zehn kleine Negerlein, die tranken ein Glas Wein. Das eine, das verschluckte sich, da waren’s nur noch neun. Neun kleine Negerlein, die schliefen in der Nacht. Eins ist nicht mehr aufgewacht, da waren’s nur noch acht. Acht kleine Negerlein, die gingen Kegel schieben. Eins blieb allein zurück, da waren’s nur noch sieben. Sieben kleine Negerlein, die trafen im Wald ‘ne Hex’. Sie winkte dem einen mit der Axt, da waren’s nur noch sechs. Sechs kleine Negerlein, die liefen ohne Strümpf’. Den einen stach eine Wespe ins Bein, da waren’s nur noch fünf. Fünf kleine Negerlein, die kamen vor des Richters Tür. Der schickt den einen aufs Schafott, da waren’s nur noch vier. Vier kleine Negerlein, die kamen am Strand vorbei. Ein Nixlein sah sie lockend an, da waren’s nur noch drei. Drei kleine Negerlein, die liebten die Jägerei. Das eine fraß der wilde Bär, da waren’s nur noch zwei. Zwei kleine Negerlein, die letzten des Vereins. Das eine schoss das andere um, da gab es nur noch eins. Ein kleines Negerlein blieb ganz allein o Graus. Da hängte es sich selber auf, und das Lied ist aus.
“Und ich sage euch, keiner von uns wird diese Insel je wieder verlassen.” (General John Gordon McKenzie)

“Zehn kleine Negerlein” (1969)
Ein glänzend aufgelegtes Schauspielensemble macht diese Fernsehfassung von Agatha Christies “Und dann gab es keines mehr” - nach wie vor der weltweit am meisten verkaufte Kriminalroman - zu einem unbedingten Sehvergnügen. Besonders bemerkenswert ist die Zahl der außer Richter Wargrave (Alfred Schieske) ebenfalls verdächtig erscheinenden Personen wie der mysteriöse Philipp Lombard (Rolf Boysen), der schmierige Privatdetektiv Blore (Werner Peters), die eiskalte Miss Brent (Nora Minor) sowie der sarkastische Butler Rogers (Günther Neutze).

I’m thinking someone should just give Gigi her medical license now 😂
She’s the one who told Conrad that Peter ate roast beef which caused his protein (?) to spike so they were able to avoided cutting his brain open.
Noticing Sammie had a red tongue (which for some reason all those doctors didn’t? 😂) and they were then able to diagnose her properly and she got better.
Not really medical but knowing that Kyle meant carpel tunnel when he said “that capel thing” I mean what five year old knows that 😂
Im sure there is more smaller moments but I’m blanking at the moment.

My review of Rise of the Beasts
It was... okay. I liked like 70% of it. We're inching- we're inching closer and closer to that perfect Transformers movie, but we're not there yet. I gotta say I liked Bumblebee (2018) more but that's not really fair to say because it's my favourite movie of all time, because it was the first time we had proof that live action Transformers movies can be good, the first time that they made a genuine effort and were created by decent human beings. So, this movie can't beat that in my mind. Overall, I'd give this film a 6.5 out of 10
Spoilers obvi
Not sure how to structure this, so I'll just go chronologically through the film and say whatever pops into my head. The opening is fun. Scourge is terrifying. I kind of love that he dispatches Apelink pretty much effortlessly, it's so disheartening and horrifying and it really tells the audience that the main characters are screwed. Look, the bar is so so SO low so when we see Primal sad when Apelink transfers the leadership over to him, you're like ‘Oh my God, there are people, that's great’. Voice acting in general is great, Peter Dinklage sounds great as Scourge. Ron Pearlman as Primal is phenomenal.
There wasn't much depth to Scourge, he's just evil for the sake of being evil, but he's good at being evil for the sake of being evil, but honestly I’m kind of disappointed because I thought I heard Steven Capel Jr say he wanted the villain to not just be plain evil, so I think some scenes could have been cut out. Unicron mentions that Scourge, Nightbird, and Battletrap are survivors of a world he consumed, but... why? Why did he pick them? I thought Scourge was like in a Silver Surfer situation like ‘hey don't eat my world and I'll lead you to other worlds’ and that's why he keeps serving Unicron to protect his home, that way there is a parallel there between OP and Scourge, they both want to go back to and protect their home, Scourge is what OP could be if not for the character arc he embarks on. Which would have been great. But we didn't really get that. But you have no idea how happy I was to hear that OP was getting a character arc, like I said the bar is on the floor.
Now... a major gripe here:... I noticed a plot hole. So, the Maximals use the Transwarp Key to escape through space and time and go back in time to earth, right? Airazor mentions she's from their ‘past and future’ and Primal mentions that he was named after Optimus. So, they are from the future. So... how does Scourge know them? How does Unicron know them? Shouldn't they be like WTF this weird energy signature just appeared, what is this? Who are these people? An easy fix would have been if Scourge and Co grab onto the ship and follow them through the portal and they get lost along the way somewhere in space that's why they're not on earth from the get go and then they are drawn to the planet by the key being activated and then once they get the key they call Unicron from their future by opening a portal through time.
Human stuff is good. Humans are bearable. Humans have never been better. I actually found myself tearing up at the scenes between Noah and Chris. The Sonic and Tails reference was cute. Calling Mirage Knuckles was extremely adorable too.
I have to admit when the Autobots first appear on screen I got so excited. Loved Arcee, Liza Koshy did a really good job, I really wasn't expecting her to deliver the lines so perfectly, I love the G1/Energon design. Especially the shade of pink they use for her visor it's delightful. I like this interpretation of Arcee, she's like a tech-head, she sounds like a strategist, very much G1/Animated personality. The dynamics between the Autobots are really fun. I love the fact that they actually like each other and are friends.
References to Bee (2018) are much appreciated, thank you.
Mirage is great, love him, a new fan favourite for me, he's funny, he's adorable, he sincere, Pete Davidson did a damn good job. Formula One G1 reference was fun, but that was one of those instances where the CGI wasn't great. His relationship with Noah makes the film alongside with OP's arc.
I like the reasoning behind the Autobots needing him, him being a thief and all that. I like that the humans serve a purpose and it all brilliantly ties in together. I think that the first act is the tightest by far.
So, a new concept introduced in this film is that bots can transform into any vehicle they want no matter the size, that's cool, explains the mass-shifting for others like Shockwave and Megatron, I know some people might have a problem with that, but I actually thought it was fine.
Apart from Prime (show) this is Peter Cullen's best performance yet as Optimus. Love that he distrusts humans and doesn't care for them much at the beginning, I love the guilt and shame that he feels for pretty much losing the war and getting his Autobots stranded on a backwater planet I love all of those scenes with Optimus.
Would have loved to see that deleted scene with OP killing Transit and hunting Decepticons and dumping their bodies into the Hudson, that sets the perfect tone for his journey and the mental state that he's in.
But on the other hand I like the fact that without this scene the Decepticons haven't made it to earth yet, not diminishing Bee’s victory at the end of the last film.
Humans don't see the beacon, that's cool. Explains why the police don't just show up right away.
Those BayFrenzy-looking things, hate them, once again that Bayverse garbage from the producers is leaking in. There's a lot of good stuff from Steven Caple Jr here to counterbalance that. And all the best stuff from this movie comes from him and his personal rewrites from what I can tell from his interviews. But that God damn Bayhem still pokes its head out from time to time. Like... every villain gets decapitated and is murdered gruesomely. It's completely unnecessary. It doesn't allow for these villains to grow in later sequels which is unfortunate. Stratosphere coughs up an engine, whatever, at least it wasn't a fart joke. Like I said; the bar is on the floor.
The museum fight is fun, it's good, entertaining, we can actually see what's happening. The Terrorcons are formidable. ‘Primus would be ashamed’ what a great quote. Great one liners from Scourge, you can tell that he's a psycho and that he enjoys being a psycho, good stuff.
I wish Nightbird and Battletrap talked more, I wish they had a Shatter/Dropkick relationship. Just something you know? They hate each other / they love each other / they hate but they respect each other / they are plotting against each other. Just something. Anything. But at least they look great, and unique, and you can tell them apart. The voice acting is really good, especially for Nightbird.
I love that OP wants the Transwarp Key to go home, while Noah wants to destroy it, all that stuff makes for fascinating conflict, I really love that. But it makes you wonder though why the Maximals didn't destroy the key themselves. Maybe it can't be destroyed only split, or they secretly hoped they could use it to travel the universe again one day to protect and shepherd different planets as that is their role in this continuity stated by Primal.
OP is furious over the death of Bee, his son, and that's great, the guilt he feels, that shame of losing the war, stranding his Autobots on a planet he doesn’t recognise, the same actions that lead to Bee dying, it's all excellent.
Bee being in a coma gives OP further motivation to get back to Cybertron, every event in this movie is really just hitting him over the head saying ‘you should have never come here’ ‘it's all your fault’.
We meet Wheeljack, he's still ugly, still looks like Urkel, but I actually love him, he's adorable, he actually reminds me a little bit of Earthspark Wheeljack, so I really liked him for like the three scenes he was in, there wasn't really a point to him, he doesn't do anything techy, but he was fun. Paying respect to Peru culture was delightful. The Maximals having a relationship with the indigenous native people is so heart-warming and so joyful to watch. One thing I love about this movie is that they avoid the Chariots of the Gods bullshit, Primal says ‘we cannot take credit for human ingenuity’ this movie gives so much respect and props to indigenous people and poc, it's wonderful. You know a white person did not write that.
I wanted more of the Maximals, because I mean the title is ‘Rise of the BEASTS’. but they kind of stand as the perfect link between the Autobots and the humans, they represent that techno-organic bond, the theme of coexistence, they represent what OP could be and becomes, so they serve their purpose in the movie perfectly fine, but still, wish they were kind of more important. Everyone's voices sound great, it all fits, I would love to hear more of these voice actors.
The Peru battle is good. OP is pissed and I love that, when Scourge is around he can't keep a cool head because of the emotional turmoil he feels inside after losing Bumblebee, I love that he finally feels emotions and isn't just monotone all the time.
Now, Scourge has some weird trackers that corrupt you and turn you evil, so... why doesn't he use them all the time? At least say he only has one, or it costs something to produce them, that's why he can't use them all the time. I guess also the reason is he enjoys killing his victims with his own hands, it's a sport to him.
I wish we had more emotional scenes with Airazor so that when she dies it would have had a bigger impact on us. It's sad, because you're getting to see Primal and Airazor as friends, but only for a little bit and it's sad because you see him crush her chest, but the transformers films still have the same problem of cutting to humans reacting dramatically to the dramatic thing happening rather than showing us it. And if it's too horrifying to focus on her chest caving in, focus on Primal’s sorrowful face or on Airazor’s face as she dies as the light leaves her eyes. Either or.
I think the movie really shines in its first and second act, and the third act is kind of the weakest. I think the third act suffers from generic Avengers faceless army syndrome. It looks great. When these CGI people are fighting in a CGI world it works and it looks like everything fits, but still it's very generic.
Also, a small rant incoming, when Mirage knocks Scourge’s ‘mask’ off, we cut away from Scourge, we see he pick up the mask and we dramatically reveal... what? Nothing. Is it Bayverse OP, because becoming a psychopath was his arc in those movies, no it's not because it's the same producers working on these films so there's no way we could make fun of the Bay films, those films bought them seven different beach houses they think that they are good films. So, is it someone OP knows from his past? No. Is it at least an Easter egg for fans, is the G1 Scourge? Is it RID 2001 Scourage? Is it Cybertron (show) Scourge? Nope! It’s just some guy. He's nobody. So many missed opportunities.
That moment with Mirage protecting Noah, the conversation with his brother, it's all super emotional and phenomenally acted by Anthony Ramos. All good stuff.
The suit CGI is unfortunately not great. I did like the whole homage to Daniel’s suit from The Transformers The Movie 1986 and to Kicker/Sari’s suit from Energy/Animated.
I wish the temptation of Unicron would last a bit longer, like maybe we see OP being tempted with a vision of his greatest desires, like he's back on Cybertron with Elita, the war is over, Megatron is defeated, you know? Just do something more with it.
Overall, I liked Bumblebee more, but it's okay I'd give it a 6.5 out of 10

Dr. Bart Ehrman's Top 3 Favorite New Testament Contradictions
COMMENTARY:
I suppose under the intellectual glass ceiling of the Marxist stylings of Post Modern Historic Deconstruction and the protocols of the Capel Hill Campus Crusade for Apostasy,, these example hold up as contradictions, However, within the encyclopedi horizons of literary criticism, they tell me a distincly different tale. As near as I can tell, the testimony of Peter transcreved by Cornelius in Mark, which is the narrative spine of the Gospel of Mark, begins at Mark 1:29, I am guided by the visual cue of εὐθὺς , which is a Roman apparatus for designating elements of the narrative that were recorded in Quelle . I don''t read Greek, but I do read concordance and the pattern of εὐθὺς acts like a footnote esignation, and means )C>F> Quelle:, So, anywan, the εὐθὺς at the outset of Mark 1:30 is where Cornelius began recoridng Peter's testiomy during their debriefing in Acts 10. So, from a literary point of view, Peter misremembered who was the high Priest of the Shew Bread beecause, as it is noted in Act 4:31, Peter is unschooled and Cornelius was clueless about the scritures, generally, It's a nothing burger and the mistake doesn't change the intent of Jesus's rejoinder one iota. I mean, the significant difference between Mark and Matthew is that Matthew connects all the Theological dots that neither Peter nor Cornelius had any idea existed. I don't have any idea how reading it in Greek alters that fact in the elast, beyound securing your personal claim to a High School Debate champion, The fact that your faith as a Born Again Jesus Freak weaned on the Campus Crusade for Christ solo scriptura indoctrintion began to unravel is a reflection on the fraud of the Salvaion Gospel. If Campus Crusade for Christ was the only means I had of knowing the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I'd consider Richard Carrier to be pulling his punches. And your Princeton Seminary i tnstructor was about as clueless as you, If you are constrained by Dale Martin's protocols for the critical historic method, you are missing most of the content of the scriptures. I'm not interested in explaining away your "contradictions". I'm interested to see where these anomlies take me into the Hegelian anthropology and sociology of the culture, It down't look much like John Dominic's version of Judea. Now, your "contradiction" is even more absurd. Jesus is getting off a boat when Jarius says his dauther is dying and could He come lay hads on her and save her. Jesus taks off, but is delayed by his healing of the woman with the 12 year heorage., That takes a little while to sort out and, when that crises is solved, Jarius is told that his daughter has died and to not to bother Jesus further. But Jesus takes Peter, John and James, who had been busy securing their boat, to go with Him to the 12 year old girl, Matthew wasn't there. He got his verion secon had somethie after the fact as hearsay evidence. Of course both version can be true: it's an example of Paradox in literature. Matthew was a late comer to Eeam Jesus and was a bit out of the loop. And , in the final analysis, the girl was dead wehn He got there and he revived her and had her walk it off. What is far more interesting to me is the evidence of the superior journalism of Cornlius's military intelligence methods. The 12 year hemorage and the 12 year old girl is an important example of the textual numerology the Holy Spirit empolys to illuminate Jesus's divinity and mehtodology, The doubling of 12 sets off the nature of the power Jesus commanded: this power is associated with the planentary force of Genesis 1:2, the demiruge. Jeus is a wlaking, taliking Arc of the Covenant. And your third example of whether Jesus said staff or no staffs reflects the difference in the life styles of Peter and Mattheew: they both hard what they wanted to hear to suit their own circunstance. Peter was a fisherman and the idea of carrying around a stick on a boat never occurred to him, while Matthew, as a tax collector, did all his work on the land and a staff as a waling stick was a ntural part of his wardrobe, In addition, Matthew, as a tac collector, would have routinely carres a sizable bank and a good staff is a useful deterrant to highway robbery, It is another example of a generally useless detail that has absolutely not effect on the flow of the narraitive, but iillustrates the the trivial purist aspect of textual analysis. My advice is that you join Derek in his remedial reading comprehension program to wean yourself away from the intellectual burden of Dale Martin's critical Historical mehtod and the comic Marxis axiom of Jimmy Tabor that Harmonization is the enemy of the Truth. Otherwise, you will extend your career of academic mal practice and abusiness model.

Mary Capel (1630–1715), Later Duchess of Beaufort, and Her Sister Elizabeth (1633–1678), Countess of Carnarvon
Artist: Sir Peter Lely (Pieter van der Faes) (British, 1618–1680)
Date: 1731
Medium: Oil on Canvas
Collection: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City, NY, United States
Description
Mary and Elizabeth Capel were the sisters of Arthur Capel (1632–1693), first Earl of Essex, who rebuilt and enlarged the house and gardens of the family seat, Cassiobury Park, beginning in 1677. This picture was installed at that time in the library along with other family portraits, eight by Lely, which remained in place until 1922, when the house and its contents were sold. Two more of those portraits are now in the Museum's collection: Sir Henry Capel by Lely (39.65.6) and George Capel, Viscount Malden, and Lady Elizabeth Capel by Reynolds (48.181).
Mary's first marriage was in 1648 to Henry Seymour, Lord Beauchamp, who died in 1654. In 1657 she married Henry Somerset, Lord Herbert. This portrait may have been painted on the occasion of her second marriage, when she would have been twenty-seven. Lord Herbert succeeded as third Marquess of Worcester in 1667 and was created Duke of Beaufort in 1682. The couple devoted themselves to enlarging Badminton House, his family estate in Gloucestershire, and to developing extensive walks and formal gardens modeled on those at Versailles. The duchess was especially interested in botany and propagated exotic plants. Her younger sister Elizabeth married Charles Dormer, second Earl of Carnarvon, in or before 1653. She was an amateur artist, and Lely shows her with a small picture of her own, a study of a tulip inscribed with her name under a coronet (Whinney and Millar 1957 and Millar 1963).
