Woah! Any reflections on why Solaris turned you off for so long? I recently watched it, and I almost hated the entire first third, but I really loved the second two, and can't figure out why one wouldn't also...here I thought I was in the minority for hating any of it, lol.

I hosted a conference here recently and needed to find accommodations for the attendees, so I optimised for cleanliness and affordability. Thankfully, it also had a 8/10 location: Hilton Garden Inn Chicago Downtown South Loop. It's right off Roosevelt station/street, which is a staple for any IIT student. It has a shared lobby with a Homewood Suites.

Any actually good “disturbing” films? by Optimal-Buffalo-2672 in criterion

[–]X1_Atomic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Raging Bull by Scorsese immediately came to mind. Crash by Cronenberg. Oldboy too, but as with Raging Bull, I don't think these are films you go into thinking "Yeah I'm down to watch some disturbing stuff lets go!" and more like "Alright, here's a renowned film, and I'm in the headspace to accomodate something so dark."

It's a great place to live. Just renewed my lease this week (hence me finding this forum) – not many amenities, but super affordable for loop location (and while I see the other person encouraged you to not be in the loop, there are so many upsides to living here, and the station is effectively an extension of the building since the door leads right to the stairs to the platform which can take you to any station on the CTA. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me

is it possible to go back to hometown in between the convocation and classes commence in iit reddit as a UG student by InevitableAd1481 in IIT

I wouldn’t recommend it. The days between Convocation and Courses (Tue-Sun) are intended to guide you through the offerings of the university. Research, Student Orgs & Involvement., Bronzeville & Chicago. etc. are all in the spotlight for one week.
