I watched Battleship Potemkin last year when Russia started the war with Ukraine. Now, I watched A man with a movie camera hoping to gain a better understanding of this region by viewing it from a different angle. A region that is so close, so European and yet so far away. In Battleship Potemkin you learn a lot about Russia. This movie isn't as educative. I still enjoyed the historic pictures of a bygone era. Music is also great (watched the Michael Nyman version). It's not even a traditional movie. It's an eclectic mix of often isolated short scenes. I must stop saying this everytime I watch an old b/w movie, but: b/w looks fantastic. It's like the video or photo slideshow of your vacation you always tried to shoot but always failed to do. You need to be a special kind of avant-garde artist to produce such a movie. Some of the scenes could very well be Kraftwerk music video.
It's also a very Soviet movie. He pictures a lot of industry, heavy machines, means of mass transportation, modern tech, hard working men and women, proletarians.
I can't rank this movie by the usual standards. It's probably a 10 though. Simply for its style, its historic value and its impact. You should watch this movie once. I can't guarantee you will like it.
Exhilarating, essential piece of cinema. Interesting as pure documentary, but extra bonus points for the self-reflexivity and the smart ways it implicates the viewers themselves in the creation of the piece. I love this movie.
What a wonderful movie about friendship and fear.
Fuck bitch ass Michael rapaport! What a horrible casting
With Trakt's 1-10 rating scale I've reserved the Totally Ninja spot for only those shows that I consider perfect, or as close to perfect as a television series can be. So far only The West Wing, Arrested Development, and The Wire have been good enough IMO, to reach that spot... until Louie came along.
The writing, acting, and directing of every episode is pitch perfect. Just go watch it!
"There's better days ahead of us."
"Yeah... I keep hearing that."
"Well, keep listening to it."
Fuck Dan Schneider.
Fuck Jason Handy.
And a big whole "fuck you" to Brian Peck, and everyone who backed him up in court.
Rot in hell, you sick fucks.
Its hard to rate this.. with the 8 saying “great”. Because everyone needs to see and hear it. Its a story that demands to being felt. Unfortunately the damage is done and society needs to learn from this. In order to keep history repeating itself. It’s really vulnerable from everyone on the documentary to tell their story. It left me speechless in some moments..
30 minutes in, and I'm balling lakes of tears from both eyes. Absolutely, anything to do with children will always make my blood boil. It doesn't matter who or what the kid is. They are innocent lives that have no idea about anything but the role models around them. The way Dan is only one of a billion makes me want to throw up my whole body. Amanda Bynes, Kenan and Kel and so many more were my role models as a kid, and now these people are role models for a totally different reason. I can only imagine how every single cast and crew member felt because my body is in pain from the amount of anger and helplessness I feel. I'm so glad more and more exposure is coming out. Power in the wrong hands is pure evil. An excellent documentary that makes you want to stop thinking.
Where did the sword come from?
I've never been more heartbroken over a character's death like Eddie's last words were the saddest and proudest words he's ever said and yeah i sat there screaming crying sobbing throwing up
EDDIE MUNSON PLAYING MASTER OF PUPPETS IN THE UPSIDE DOWN WAS LEGENDARY!
"Chrissy, this is for you."
this is a really great no bullshit movie, only movie I've seen where people act rationally to everything and there's no unnecessary jump scares.
joyce finally seeing hopper again and confirming that he's still alive AAAAAAAAAAH
THE ROTATING SHOT IN THAT BIKE SCENE THAT TRANSITIONS INTO THE UPSIDE DOWN WAS SOOOOOOOO SMOOTH I LOVED IT
THEN joyce and hopper finally reuniting, that scene made me tear up ngl
& i KNEW IT, i f*CKING KNEW ITTTTTTTT, the "number 001 being VECNA" reveal was such a good way to end off volume 1, literally cannot wait for volume 2 to come out
Not cool that everyone is trying to get Nancy and Steve back together. When Jonathan isn’t around.
homie, they got walton FUCKING goggins up in this bitch
They completely nailed the look, feel and vibe of the games and it's fucking amazing.
Recap of the first 7 episodes.
Thors’ sacrifice kinda reminds me of Ned Stark’s death. I already had the feeling that this anime could be like an animated Game of Thrones. I really hope it will be so!
Thorfinn, what are you doing. Also, how'd you lose sight of him, Leif?!
I wonder if it'll ever be explained how Ms Makina survived on the train
LIKE A TIN CAN. MAKIMA CRUSHED THEM LIKE A FUCKING. TIN. CAN. HOLY SHIT.
I‘m so terrified of Makima :flushed:
Kobeni: wtf was that?? So badass!
Norm was just fired in the previous episode, wasn't he? Odd to have no mention of getting another job, looking for one, or managing to get his job back… Just "How's it going, Norm?" "Daddy's rich and mama's good looking."
Like putting on a old comfortable pair of jeans. Also, I want to know more about the woman in the hat and wheelchair.
Wow, what a distressful episode.
I wish olivia would have cracked him one more time
truly one of the most harrowing episodes of svu. i've seen it a few times during marathons and even knowing the ending i spend the entire thing in total distress
Fairly decent depiction of shitty radio hosts/shows. Lewis Black was great casting for that role. In the current day it's mainly podcasts, but it's essentially the same thing. 18 years later and we still have the same kind of shitty fanbases.
The assertion made both by the radio producer and Danny that he'd get laid just because he was on the show is exactly how deluded some of that audience can be.
