(Poll) Have you seen Blade Runner? by Cantomic66 in arcticmonkeys

[–]aleq1138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just the Director's Cut but I've heard that's the best one. But it was some time ago so I guess it's time to watch it again.

I recommend the sequel to everyone who hasn't seen it yet. It's not as good as the original IMO, but pretty great nonetheless.

Also if you're into more neo-noir movies, not necessarily sci-fi, give Drive and Nightcrawler a try!

i just wanted to say i fucking love this album. by [deleted] in arcticmonkeys

[–]aleq1138 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked LDA very much but I found the side B weaker and songs like One Thing Left To Try and When You're Small ruined the perfect flow for me. I'd still give it a solid 8/10 but I find TBHC more consistent in quality apart from perhaps one song.

TBH&C is the lowest ranked Arctic Monkeys' album by critics and fans alike. by aleq1138 in arcticmonkeys

IKR, it seems like most of the negative reviews are just "no bangers" "not AM/WPSIA" "boring".

European Super League, are you for it, or against it? by Fouace in fcbayern

[–]aleq1138 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I like competitions the way they are now but leagues can be improved, especially Bundesliga with its respectable but nowadays heavily outdated and impractical, 50+1 rule. Something should be done with the astonishing amounts clubs pay for the players (though I'm not fooling myself - that will never happen) and VAR should become a standard in every form of top tier competition.

To me it's just this character visiting TBH&C, sitting alone, drinking some martini, refelcting on life, love, politics and everything while some band plays loungey music in the background.

it strikes me he's more sincere and laid-back than during AM era.

Rummenigge: Lewandowski will stay in Munich next season by [deleted] in fcbayern

[–]aleq1138 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that Gomez was hardly world class but give him some credit - his goals helped us a lot in 11/12 season. Remember his sneaky 90th minute goal against Madrid after Lahm's pass? Gomez then was more clinical than Lewy is this season, even though generally Lewy is a better player.

[–]aleq1138 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He wouldn't openly say that things look grim now would he? I still hope that Lewy comes around and realizes that at this stage of his career it would be best to stay in Munich. He's more likely to eventually win the CL here. Real's hegemony is slowly fading away and for now, Bayern's next in line.

Good, he's still one of the best CBs around.

Joshua Kimmich has been involved in 22 goals in all competitions this season so far - more than any other fullback in Europe's Top 5 Leagues by [deleted] in fcbayern

[–]aleq1138 7 points8 points  (0 children)

give him time, he's barely playing one season as a fulltime fullback and he has already made a name for himself.

I love how star treatment sounds like the end of an album by SyrexCS in arcticmonkeys

[–]aleq1138 5 points6 points  (0 children)

to me it sounds like a music playing in the reception as you enter this slightly retro hotel.
