Wow that really was the worst timeline!
What? That doesn't even make any sense, how and why would he come to the conclusion that its all Mikeys fault? Unless he is bat shit insane...
That's a great movie. Ever wondered how colonialism in the 2nd half of the 20th century in a country not very far away looked like? Watch this movie and the conflict from the perspective of those who were colonized. It was ugly. Guerilla warfare is brutal. Then watch La Haine and draw the line for yourself.
B/w looks great in HD. Ennio Morricone again on fire!
As timeless, pertinent and empowering now, as it was 60 odd years ago
It was long at times, and a little inconsistent but overall a pleasant watching. The main couple were so in love, it was lovely to see. I also really liked the character of Rong Hao. His motivation during the whole drama was so clear and understandable even as it lead him to loose his innocence. His relationship with his master was truly beautiful, and I think the ending they got was perfect . However, what's up with romantic dramas ending up so abruptly every time? Can't we get some time to enjoy seeing the couple in love now that they've went through all of the difficult times? This is very frustrating..
I also didn't really like the 2nd couple, who seemed to be there just to fill a gap. Even more frustrating when considering that Chang Heng and Danyin had such good chemistry, especially at the end of the show. Them ending together would have been a hundred times better imo
I loved that moment they had underwater :}
Akane ??? Nah it's Ai 2.0 , literal chills
Damn, Aqua was really left starstruck at the end there. I like the happiness in this one, though that scene near the end creeped me out.
8/10
yikes.. this movie is all over the place. very hard to follow.
NOT THE KISS. OH GOD NOT THE KISS.
This is a spoiler, but also a moment - a scene that I found very poignant, and I believe put a bow-tie on the story. Just read the bold-faced words if TL;DR: At the end, amongst the, "Book People," those who commit one book to memory (and become that book, living to mirror it's story) an elderly man on his death bed is seen passing on his chosen book to a young nephew.... He reads a passage then the boy repeats it. The passage we hear is of the old man saying he does not believe he loved his Father, and that his Father died as he feared during the first snows. It is early Fall...then the scene changes to early Winter. And, as the boy is seen reciting the same passage on his own, we see the old man has just passed away as the first snows fall. A self-fulfilling prophecy; a perfect mimicry of the fiction become real. So sad in a certain light, but also so beautiful. And, interweaving with the others walking about, re-reciting their books endlessly to preserve them, our protagonist Montag and Clarisse his true dance partner fall into step briefly, separate then again walk alongside one another.
I think I saw this as a preteen watching, "Creature Features," double-headers on KTVU hosted by Bob Wilkins, although between channel 2, 11, 20 & 36, I usually watched horror and science-fiction movies through a weekend night until channel sign-offs early the next morning. No wonder I could only read those genres of literature. No wonder I can't differentiate the books from the movies. I've seen this eight times now.
It may be klunky, and the classic Bernard Herrmann soundtrack may be jarring, but this is a great film.
Wow. Funny and emotional show
NO SHITTING WAY THAT IT WAS JUST A DREAM, WTF.
Jia is such an angel, I love her so much. We need more not-too-girly female representations in K-dramas! :raised_hands:
The mom is adorable as well, I really like how she's portrayed!
I really-really love Taesung's character. The kind of person who has only a few people close to him, but deeply caring about those few people. The subtle changes he made in the first episode and this one, like eating breakfast together at the table after he heard that Haebom will probably move out soon (just so Taesung can spend more time with him), guarding and returning Haebom's stolen money to him, buying a cake and taking it to Haebom's room while he wasn't there, waiting in front of the house at night for Haebom to arrive home (then gently denying the obvious :laughing:)... I love these types of subtle but super caring gestures. The feeling of earning the trust and care of a reserved, closed person is truly amazing.
Toyoda is amazing, he's my favourite character! A true friend who supports and helps Ida out with advice. Aw man, his girlfriend is lucky af! :laughing:
Love is really blind :P
And what about that evil boss of Ryoma? Oh gosh :(
Poor Adachi... It was so heartbreaking watching him be so sad
CAN YOU HEAR ME SCREAMING????
I can't stop laughing :joy::joy::joy: Adachiiiii pls stop
This is a fun and charming film. The story may seem a little dated for Western viewers but it feels like an important entry for Indian Queer Cinema. Excellent cast with some great music, too.
Though I watched it for the second time now, it still surprised me how Takumi raised his voice and stood up for himself when Gii "wanted" them to stop meeting. So proud. On the other hand, I never understood characters with a sudden change of behaviour who're not willing to tell their friends or loved ones the cause of their change - Gii simply chose to be cold and ignorant towards them.
Carisi has grown into one of my favorite characters....but this man needs to just tell her how he feels. It hurt to see him go through that fake marriage scene between Rollins and Khaldun.
Great episode but Noooooo..... So close......
HOLY CAMOLY I AM SO EXCITEEEEED. noh and punn again? YES PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Definitely better than I anticipated.
The gore and special effects were amazing.
They should have invited Jack Black to play Judd.
