Putting characters from the film in a world they do not belong to leads to jarring results. I'm not even human is a stupidly blatant propaganda piece. As such, there is this expectation for the film to not take itself seriously, since if one does, the film is less enjoyable. That's why a teaser for the movie being only slightly serious is jarring: https://odysee.com/@BlenderDumbass:c/interview-with-characters-from-i-m-not:a
Orphan by László Nemes is a bleak introspection into the psychology of a lonely adolescent Andor (Bojtorján Barábas), desperately searching for his father. Just like I am by Romas Lileikis, the focus is put more so on the atmosphere and the world rather than much the plot.
We all know about absolute cinematic masterpieces like The Room by the legendary Tommy Wiseau. Films that were intended to be great works of cinema, but that failed so miserably at achieving their goal, that they spawn all the way around the scale and became great works of cinema, by mistake, anyway. But then there are films like The Grindhouse movies, or Black Dynamite, or Wiseau's sequel to Samurai Cop, who's goal was to be those intentionally terrible pieces of crap, from the get go. Is Idiocracy by Mike Judge from the first type of terrible movies, or from the second, intentional one? Is Idiocracy intentionally stupid?
The heart was blackened with tears from Kaouther Ben Hania's feature film The Voice of Hind Rajab. The choice of the story being told about Hind Rami Iyad Rajab was lead by the individual need to speak out. The director wasn't the only one to do so in big screen form.
In this article I will present an argument that explains why seemingly everybody is on the Epstein files. And how you can use this logic to demolish reputation of pretty much anybody else as well. If you have any political goal what so ever, stay tuned. It is very simple. ( NOTE: I'm not trying to discredit the severity of the situation. I propose that the situation, just might be, a bit more severe than we think. )
Age Verification is the new anti-terrorism. The trojan-horse of legal bullshit designed to strip the public from their rights, claiming it is for the greater good. But why this? Why now? I suppose I want to process the way I see it via a play. It will have very strange names, like Publicus ( that represents the public ).
With today's seeming apocalypse it is easy to give up all hope, to feel hopeless. Age-Verification, Chat Control and other ( usually ageist ) attempts at attacking our freedom seem to be overwhelming at their might. And while it is true that they are terrible things and that they are bad for our freedom, still they are not the end of the world. There is still hope.
It records the teachings, opinions and disagreements of thousands of rabbis and Torah scholars.
And if you know from books like Tanya which references the book of Nida on the first page, in the first paragraph, in the first sentence, you know that Talmud likes to link things Wikipedia style, and then argue those things, trying to find patterns.
What could be the pattern in linking a Wikipedia article and then talking about Wikipedia in an article about using Talmudic Techniques to understand Free Software?
There is a certain trend, or more like a curse, among film-makers that suggests, that by movie number 4 there is a moment of the film-maker going completely insane. Steven Spielberg's 4th theatrical film was 1941, which is one of the most unhinged things he ever did. Damien Chazelle's 4th film was Babylon, which is arguably equally unhinged. So I suppose let's analyze this phenomenon. But for the fun of it, I will make this analysis using the new feature I just added to the markdown parser of this website.
. Ari Aster's psychoanalytical film Beau Is Afraid. The little 50 year old something boy named Beau is so utterly paranoid and lacking self worth, the entire world morphs into an extended torture scene. Since everything is told from the first point of view (POV), there is a lingering uncertainty of what is depicted real.
Assembly Bill No. 1043 of the State of California forces every operating system vendor to implement an age verification system on "account setup". I guess it's time to break the text of it down and rant a pissed-off rant about how stupid it is. Shall we?
Andrew Rakich's self-distributed 2023 film The Sudbury Devil is quite a piece of cool horror film-making. Made for a mere $25 thousand, the film is surprisingly good. It is tense and intense. It is rather fucked up. And it is smartly written and directed.
Ever since Piranha IIJames Cameron shown his friendship with Luc Besson. Both directors are obsessed with marine biology, both are obsessed with strong female characters and both have a strange fascination with the youth. Luc Besson's Leon, The Family and Arthur films have strong child characters in some rather fucked up situations. James Cameron with Aliens, Terminator 2 and the Avatar franchise does the same thing. But have you ever thought how similar both the Terminator and Leon actually are?
So James Cameron is in Italy, having a fever. I mean of course he is. He was just involved in a nightmare project that is Piranha II. While there he has this fever dream of a nightmarish scenario. A metal skeleton coming out of a fire.
When I came to watch Alfonso Cuarón's dystopian film Children of Men, the UK depicted seemed quite up par to what I've heard. That UK had outlawed immigration. Looking at the present day land, if not for influx of migrants, the Kingdom would become a Kill-dome with how fast the population is aging. No need for a world-wide infertility disease.
2027 is around the corner and thank God babies are still being born. That is not the case in the 2006 Alfonso Cuarón film Children of Men. Children of Men is bleak and depressing. It is without hope. Without hope, that was lost, long time ago, because children are not being born anymore. The world has gone to shit. The world has gone to shit because there are no children. There are no Children of Men.
