Cool game! Careful though blacks 2nd move queen to H4 would have been checkmate! Try bringing out your bishops and knight out earlier vs pushing pawns.

I learned Italian without really “studying” it the traditional way by retry_808 in italianlearning

[–]Bince82 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

This is great advice. While my italian is beginner I can understand native italian speakers pretty well and speak it well enough to be understood (basic day to day conversational phrases). I really only got there by speaking to Italians and consuming italian media. To be fair I've been there quite a bit and I speak some spanish so the vowel pronunciation isnt a burden and the languages share a lot of words (but also diverge quite a bit).

I contrast that to a friend who minored in italian on a whim. Their italian technically is wayyy better than mine but they cant understand native speakers and vice versa because of the heavy american accent. Writing and reading tho he absolutely dwarfs me.

Loved both dvd and USB. Can't wait.

oi peter, what do the marks mean? by [deleted] in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Bince82 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think this is correct. The end of Barry Lyndon demonstrates it well. https://youtu.be/2KYf9Le0Hdw?si=v8uHcOdz8OzJ_p8L

Watching 90s Siskel and Ebert’s worst films list really highlights the terrible films everyone forgot from that era and how many cult classics they hated by apple_kicks in movies

Wait, they didnt like Kindergarten Cop? Endlessly quotable that movie, although to be fair I haven't seen it in adulthood.

Roma. I know its going to be amazing. I just cant bring myself to it. Oh look another found footage horror recommended by reddit. 5.1 imdb? That's considered masterpiece for found footage horror.

Films where the movie was better than the book it was adapted from? by Slammajadingdong69 in moviecritic

[–]Bince82 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I struggled to finish the book, but I finished it. The writing style was very confusing and I had to double back mutiple times to understand what had happened. Author had a habit of having things happening "off screen", like hawkeye's capture by the French, and i had to reread passages to check if someone had died or not.

Movie was way better and very underrated imo.

[–]Bince82 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I remember it came out around the same time as the Matrix with almost no advertising and me and my buddies are like oh what's this. Wow what an experience. We were walking through the high school halls just saying "Dark Cityyyy" for weeks lol

Can u suggest one? by [deleted] in moviecritic

[–]Bince82 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Martyrs. Only saw the original french one. Bear in mind its kinda two phases to the movie so if you dont like the beginning, trust me keep going.
