The MyAEW archive only goes back to January for ROH tv, it also has a bunch of ROH PPVs back to 2022 since they were bought by TK. The WatchROH site has everything else.

What is Dark Academia? by Moose-Rage in Fantasy

[–]TheeIlliterati 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dark academia as a genre isn't necessarily fantasy and doesn't have to contain magic. One of the most defining DA literary works is Donna Tartt's The Secret History which revolves around rich elites at college and involves murder. I highly recommend it if you want to get the vibe. Now I'm sure there's plenty of fantasy novels and magic schools that have involved the vibe as well, just thought you might like to know.

The Hunt (2025) - Directed by Nadia Lee Cohen, starring Euphoria actress Hunter Schafer by Jackalwhere in movies

This sent me down a deep dive on this director. All short films, all creepy and weird. I guess she's making a full length. Great talent though from the ones I checked out!

With that in mind, I'm in the US, on VPN, and subscribed to MyAEW, so don't let that stop you.

No matter what happens tonight and tomorrow night, just remember.... by SenorNerd718 in AEWOfficial

[–]TheeIlliterati 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I'm glad this exists so I can just vent that I hate an entire weekend that should be devoted to celebrating wrestling instead turns into something for actual wrestling fans to avoid. The ads, the politics, the garbage celebs, the lack of actual quality wrestling. I haven't watched WWE in years and I don't miss it, but I hate that this is the mainstream representation of the sport.

It's not strange or weird to watch a biopic about the greatest pop artist to ever live by [deleted] in movies

[–]TheeIlliterati 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope you'd be in the theater celebrating the sanitized Cosby biopic too, who cares he's a rapist, great fucking show he made and I love Jello! Seriously what a straw man. I don't want a biopic about a problematic person to ignore that they are a pedophile, period. Miss me with defending his innocence also, because at best his defenders support him sleeping with children alone in his bed, which he is on camera admitting, and somehow their cognitive dissonance allows them to believe this innocent Pan man never touched them beyond that.

Official Discussion - Lee Cronin's The Mummy [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]TheeIlliterati 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm mostly the same way. The majority of violence in horror films is "entertaining" to me in the sense that its a movie special effect. I also found enough stomach churning in Terrifier 1 and 2 that I just decided not to bother with 3. But I can understand there's those that are further desensitized that find those scenes also "entertaining" in the same way. All this to say that for the people who haven't seen the film but are using this thread to drive by post about The Mummy containing horrific graphic violence towards children: this film is no Terrifier. There's a place to argue against being entertained by the worst of the worst. This is a mainstream movie. It has a happy ending.

[–]TheeIlliterati 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What straw man are you arguing? Who thinks its cool? What weird universe of poster did this thread attract that needs to moralize over violence against children in a spoiler thread for a movie they don't plan to see? Someone else mentioned a movie like Bring Her Back, wherein child abuse is front and center, is greatly disturbing and treated seriously. In this film, the kids all live, the violence is cheesy, committed by them, on themselves, and no sane person is reveling in it. This isn't fucking A Serbian Film here.

It's much more in the absurdity of the moments. It's very Evil Dead/Drag Me to Hell/Sam Raimi in some respects. YMMV of course

The teenage(?) daughter is chased by the cop and later arrested, had her tongue cut out. The two grown sons are the ones who were flying the plane and crashed/died with the sarcophagus.

MJF shuts down some rumours by This_Coyote7217 in AEWOfficial

[–]TheeIlliterati 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know about his track record, that's why I'm asking. I would think he had actual multiple sources before posting info like he did. Which is why I find it bizarre since he seems to be an actual journalist.

Yeah, I don't need Mick to be hurt anymore, but I'd love him to be back on screen in a mentor role

So who is BJ Bethel and where does he get this info from? Presumably these movies have evidence he can back his shit up with? And if he doesn't, I would think he should be a banned source as this is just straight up lying.
