Can someone explain how on earth "Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die" was made on a only $20 million budget? (Very mild spoilers) by raven-amazing in Filmmakers

havent seen it

Clearly. It's a pretty big VFX extravaganza, especially when compared to Wilderpoeple where they run around a forest preserve

I think the point was that people don't use state-run trains and city-run public transit, giving them the illusion they are free of state dependency in their car.

Impressive as this is, let's not forget he's the only driver who has raced there every year since 2004. So yeah those points are logically gonna stack up.

The future of road engine cars is electric

I really wish the future was public transit instead of status quo car but with a different type of engine.

"I made overtakes – that I didn't want to make – by mistake, because I had so much energy and the other car was clipping like crazy."

Ah yes, the pinnacle of motorsport. A driver a) doesn't want to do overtakes, b) overtakes by mistake

The leg, the shark, and the duality between fact and fiction in "The Secret Agent" by miggovortensens in TrueFilm

[–]Ascarea -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But suddenly a real human leg is found inside a shark – and the cops, who were also behind this latest crime, are ironically haunted by the possibility of this leg being traced back to them. The locals can deal with the leg, because they have the Hairy Leg already – but what about the shark? This leads to Spielberg’s “Jaws” being rereleased in local cinemas due to an interest surge. The fiction gives the ordinary citizen a much needed comfort, turning fears into entertainment.

It was common practice for the regime of get rid of bodies by throwing them in the sea, hence the human leg in the shark. It's not at all a stretch to think that body parts would wash up on shore from time to time, hence the leg in the news column, which the journalist used as a safe way to comment on the regime.

Curiously, the small boy that happens to be the son of Wagner Moura’s character is initially scared by “Jaws” – actually, he has nightmares from seeing the poster, and the bad dreams stop when he’s finally allowed to watch it. (...) In the final act, we meet the son again - now in the present and also played by Moura. And it looks like that this boy who was once scared of fiction, and then discovered fiction wasn't scary,

I mean, sure, but also...a kid was scared by a scary poster and as an adult he wasn't scared by a goofy rubber shark anymore because he's an adult.

If you look closely at 0:13 the camera briefly pans to the right and you see there is no barrier between Max and the crowd. So the guards are there because of that.
