I watched this Irish film with Colin Farrell in it recently. One of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen even if unintentionally in some places. It’s really dry and kinda dark, so if you’re into that type of humour you’ll probably dig it. The premise is about the start of a blood feud between neighbours set on an Irish island in the 1920’s. After watching this and Lobster this weekend I’ve grown fond of Colin Farrell, never seen him in anything else so could have just seen his two best movies.

Can't say I really got the hype for that one, but check out In Bruges. Same director, and also starring Colin Farrell.
 
Is it really that bad? Is it woke propaganda maskerading as a season finale?

I think it’s ok, but I think our earlier conversation made me see that there’s more DEI than I realized. I’m pretty good at turning off the critical thinking part of my brain to enjoy things in general and there hasn’t been anything too egregious yet imo, so I can still enjoy the show, but everyone’s tolerance is different. I’m just hedging my recommendation since I went in guns blazing.

Does it at least have a decent season finale?
 
Am I crazy or has prime gotten way fucking worse for finding horror and sci-fi shit in the last couple of years?
It used to feel like they had almost every B-movie on there.
I think I remember they used to have some Russian science fiction. I vaguely remember one where an Alien ship crash landed in one of their cities after being shot down, landing in apartment blocks and killing the friend of the female protagonist.

One of my favorites in the past few years. I loved Farrell not going full retard and Gleeson was a perfect bastard. Highly recommend it if you want to sit down and just watch a film with a good dinner and drink.
 
Radiance Films has recently released the highly stylized, breezy 1966 Japanese spy-caper film Black Tight Killers, Nikkatsu Studios entering into the James Bond era of film. Globe-trotting, English-speaking, daredevil war-photojournalist Hondo Daisuke (Kobayashi Akira) falls for stewardess Sawanouchi Yoriko (Matsubara Chieko) but their first date takes a turn when she is stalked by suspicious foreigners and captured by a group of modern-day girl ninjas in black leather. The devil-may-care Hondo, who can be capable and careless at the same time, unravels a mystery, Yoriko was kidnapped because she may hold a clue to the location of a stash of stolen WWII Okinawan gold wanted by both the mystery men and the "Black Tight Killers", no matter the cost.

 
Yesterday I saw Robin Williams: Come inside my mind and it was an excellent documentary.
Robin Williams was many things and I like how the documentary shows all of his sides, even the dark ones with his drug uses and in the end, his health problems.
It gives you a new look at his comedy style and his acting.
 
I'm rewatching battlestar galactica (the new one) and I can't get over how much better it is in everyway from the acting to the story to the tone than all the star treks I've seen. Even the ones I liked. Its not perfect of course and there are probably plenty of other films and series which exceed it but in its own arena of sci fi space series its so much better than trek.

Star Wars and Star trek. How did we end up with such silly franchises being the benchmark by which we measure sci fi?

religion. BattleStar Galactica has Christian faith woven into it while Star Trek is mostly atheist. Deep Space 9 does have faith as a heavy component of it. Star Wars has a mythology but no faith. The atheistic works do have a cynical take with aspects that focus on hollow liberalism over a commitment to deep storytelling.

He wants me to inside his where?

:tomgirl:
 
The looks and feels like a "Like a Dragon"/Yakuza game and I am fucking here for this.
There was actually a Yakuza movie by Takashi Miike. Pretty good movie all things considered, great unhinged Goro Majima performance.

Ive wanted to see the Yusaku Matusda Game Trilogy and Ken Takakura Abashiri Bangaichi series for a very long time. Im not able to find good quality rips anywhere but I would recommend them if someone wants to watch them.
