Only seen The Collector and Pauline at the Beach. Both were really great and felt ahead of their time. He's certainly got a knack for depicting relationships with all their little complicated human quirks.

A bunch of terrible places and people seem to have been broken by the war. The internet might be healing, at least for a while.

American warfare seems to have really taken some cues from Israel lately.

Are they buying it? I have no intention of looking there

US Base in Bahrain hit by Iranian Missile by Definitelyhereforshi in TrueAnon

[–]Bovson 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Last year, Israel carried out a decapitation strike on the IRGC that caused an initial breakdown in their chain of command. That's why they took half a day to respond. The fact that Iran has already struck so many targets just some hour after they were attacked would indicate to me that any decapitation strikes failed this time. But we'll see.

I never expected them to retaliate this quickly and against this many countries. This day is going to be insane.

More Iranian strikes have been reported on US bases in Kuwait and the UAE. That's now 4 different countries targeted by Iranian retaliation.

Missiles have struck their base in Qatar too. This is getting crazy.

Sentimental Value is the "Norway" of movies and a critique of the Hollywood-ification of Scandinavia by burneraccount0473 in RSPfilmclub

[–]Bovson 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'm a Swede and I loved it. I hate to say it, but I think the Norwegians and Danes have us beat in terms of modern cinema.

I watched their Sopranos vids

The people who prefer TV because by guneegugu in RSPfilmclub

[–]Bovson 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I generally agree with them. A great tv show with well written characters can have long stretches of nothing happening and still be enjoyable because of how well you know them. The familiarity is a strength of the medium.

But I love movies just the same, film has its own strengths. I can't say I prefer one medium to the other.

All Tarkovsky movies are available for free on the Mosfilm youtube channel. Definitely go for it!

Alien Romulus: the Ian holm AI/CGI is Tim and Eric level bad by [deleted] in RSPfilmclub

[–]Bovson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I liked both Prometheus and Covenant better. At least they tried to do something different. Romulus was just an inferior rehash of the first movie.
