Laapataa Ladies

I can't help but share the joy of watching this brilliant satire #LaaPataaLadies, which presents a loud and clear statement on patriarchy and its many manifestations in the lives of 'invisible' women in rural India.

It delves into the lives of marginalized women, exploring resilience, friendship, and empowerment as they navigate societal expectations and stereotypes, shedding light on their struggles and triumphs while emphasizing the strength found in unity and solidarity among women.

@talwinder I think it's well suited here.

RIPLEY

You know the nightmare you have where it’s all shadowy and dodgy, and you’re trying to escape, or hide, from something you’ve done, and you wake up realising the nightmare was an exaggeration of some past sin…

Well, Ripley is the nightmare. Ripley is the thing that Emerald Fennell wished Saltburn could be.

@IsildursBane Correct, Thing about Saltburn is spot on.

@hitsbam Susan's face harden once more into a mask of sadness. She finally understands the book as an elaborate act of revenge, and that dedicating it to her wasn't a compliment. She knows now that he'll never forgive her, and the book is a pointed message about just how thoroughly she devastated him.

I'm disappointed. The movie looks and sounds beautiful - the costumes and the world both are very intricate. I enjoy the language that is used, how the dialogues are written and I especially love the concept of the movie. It's not something new, plenty of books cover basically the same idea of a "clean" human, who grew up without societies influence, discovering the world. Nontheless, I was intrigued. Sadly since Bella is a woman, clearly the only way for her to explore the world is through having sex with men, because how else. And that could have been fine, talking about sex and sexuality is important, but this movie just uses it as a way to make jokes and show her tits. It is shown as something great and liberating, even when grown man assault her as a child or when she works at a brothel. Besides this weird portrayal of sex, there is not much substance. A few buzz words are thrown around like socialism, worker unions etc., but the writers were happy with just mentioning this stuff. Even when talking about prostitution, the commentary is restricted to "what if the prostitues would choose who they have sex with" - what a great, elaborate thought. This shows just how little thought went into the writing. Overall there is nothing worthwhile to be found here - at best you will get an ignorant commentary about topics they clearly have never engaged with.

The show is clean, seamless, visually beautiful, the cinematography, set design, and music score are champions and Jim Sarbh, much like all the other cast, is outstanding.

Good start but feels like it’s missing something

The Last of Us: 1x02 Infected

I've had one show at the top of my list as my favorite show of all time for over a decade now. If this show keeps going the way it's going, I could see that changing. Which would be appropriate, given that this game has remained at the top of my favorite games list for a decade as well.

@morphinapg Hi which show is that?

Daredevil

Not great but not terrible either. Better than the Netflix version anyway.

Titans: 3x03 Hank & Dove

My only problem is Dr. Krane/Scare Crow being a stoner. Spoiler: we all knew Jason was the Red Hood, yet I still feel like it was revealed a little too soon.
Though this was great edge of your seat episode.

@jim222001 yeh but there's more to come, it is not only about redhood.
