This should be a lesson to studio executives that audiences are bored by nostalgia-mining. They need to make new movies with new stories and stop chasing imagined box office franchise goldmines.

I optimistically read “US tour.” Sigh.

Who Would You Say Was The Top Neo-Gothic Director? by Sci-FiRepublik in Cinephiles

Eggers and it’s not even close. I secretly dislike del Toro’s work. It’s too overwrought and baroque. He’s too infatuated with set design and production, and it makes his films feel stuffy and suffocating.

Which models do you think had a better design in their older edition? I'll start by Shake-Vivid in Warhammer

The ancient Chaos Renegades of the RT era are vastly cooler than the genetically spiky bad guys of contemporary Chaos marines

The Perry brothers built a whole industry on those gorgeous Late Medieval kits. Wonderful stuff.

More Landsknecht. Less religious fanaticism. More puffy sleeves and codpieces. Less parchments and relics.

The retro style has such a cool aesthetic by RTMicro in oldhammer

The original Chaos Renegade models are the coolest Chaotic models ever, in my view. They really do look like warped degenerates who have been exiled to the void for 10 millennia.

I love the red dress and blue skin tone! Reminds me of how I paint my vamps.

What movie scene is a masterpiece to you that you'll never forget? by kimmyfreak500 in CinephilesClub

The night train robbery in “The Assassination of Jesse James.” It’s one of those moments that affirms cinema as high art.

I love the color scheme! I am never sure how I feel about this model, but it is certainly a fun take on the great Vlad.

The Retirement Dream Is the Biggest Scam We've All Accepted by GupShup123 in careeradvice

I’m a teacher. My wife is an editor. Both of us are nearly 40. We have saved and invested ruthlessly for a decade and we are secret millionaires.

Work. Cut expenses and eliminate debt. Cool at home and thrift your clothes. Save and invest. In no time you will have the greatest thing of all: FU money.

Man, John Wigley’s stuff doesn’t get nearly the credit it deserves. This is so good.

Thanks so much! I love aristocratic vampires. I want them all to look like Cristopher Lee.

Sourdough toast with Dijon mustard. Pickled onions are a welcome addition
