It continues to amaze me how gaming, more than any other medium, draws critcism against titles from people who have not played them. Yooka-Laylee is far from a perfect work, but seeing all the (long) replies from folks who clearly have not had a go at it themselves is infuriating. I am by no means suggesting people…

Friends, I implore you to seek out a film screening of this most fine of motion pictures, if at all possible. I had the great pleasure to experience the premiere of this at last year's New York Film Festival. It was the only work actually projected in film, as far as I am aware. And what an experience it was! As if…

I watched The Eyes of My Mother on Netflix. Planned to see it in a theater but did not make it. Though it would have been a treat to see the striking imagery on a bigger screen, the intimacy of a quiet, solitary late-night viewing served it so well.

I agree with your knock on the expo-dumps, which makes your latter statement about wanting it to be longer a puzzling one. Def. a be careful what you wish for scenario.

"What it lacks is the nerve-fraying immediacy of Mungiu’s earlier work."

"Once you put it out into the world, you'll be surprised how many people want to help you."

I've never had a problem with them, but this is fucking hilarious!

I think they already did that in Last Vegas. Presumably, that one kicked off the exciting new Old Geezers cinematic universe (OGCU). Gangsters ain't happy about that acronym, though.

Um, what?

Until next week, when Shane is like "Psyche! I'm sending your ass to Raw! Have fun with Brock and Roman, ahahahaha!"

I quite enjoyed this show.

The film does portray the interminable double whammy of court proceedings and a slow, incurable death, and therefore being bored is intrinsic within that, but the experience itself need not be framed as such. There was room to dig deeper here.

I too loved Kekszakallu. This is not as entrancing but still quite rich. The two works could even be seen as distant companions, exploring life passing by during youth in the former and near death in the latter.

Yay! I enjoyed this one a lot. Was cool to see Barrymore in something worthwhile and to see a different side of Olyphant. That said, the serialization could use some work. I actually think the show went too fast through its plot points and mythology. Kind of the opposite of the problem many other series have, where…

Calling fans of any of a group of unique works "extremely incorrect" has to be the most egregious example of culture writer douchebaggery I have come across in recent memory. It's also some serious gaslighting bullshit. Go fuck yourself, Clayton.

I don't know if she can be considered established, but I enjoyed Katherine Ryan's Netflix one quite a bit.

I finished Hearts of Stone earlier this week. Loved it! I too am a fan of O'Dimm.

Far from a perfect work, but one that has stayed with me months after viewing it. My advice to others: ignore the details, and just let yourself get caught up in it.

She is, in a sense, the entire film this time, and it's wonderful.

But that doesn't make for a clever post, does it? Which is why he has hundreds of upvotes and you have none. Learn to internet, my friend.
