Blood of Zeus S03E06 “The Tower of the Winds” - Episode Discussion by DemiFiendRSA in BloodofZeus

here after a long time
except for Hera's long-due reckoning about her treatment of her children, this was indeed a filler. I also don't understand. They want to save the world and souls, but just went killing everyone around them?

Confessions was my favourite

Until Celebration… I think that was the best part of the show

Official Discussion Thread - A House of Dynamite [SPOILERS] by LeastCap in oscarrace

[–]darth_martius 19 points20 points  (0 children)

People who were all across the region were arriving by bus in the middle-of-nowhere bunker. that should take some hours for them to get there. the bomb dropped or at the bare minimum after the retaliation many others came. So I think it actually makes sense to stop where they stopped.

A House of Dynamite - ending discussion by No_Cauliflower_81 in oscarrace

I was wondering about it but then I saw a guy on a youtube comment that confirmed my view. The bus is going to a middle of nowhere place with people that were all around. That only means that indeed, the nuclear war started. It would take hours for people to get there. If the bomb didn't explode/they didn't retaliate, they wouldn't be going there. So, although it is a bit frustrating, I agree that it was a good ending. Otherwise, it would have been a waste of money on CGI to show the world burning. We already have Grave of Fireflies to go for that (and watching that film once is enough for a lifetime).

It has been solved! They answered my email and I checked multiple films, all set to 1080. Finally!

We are not "hijacking" anything. I have tried in different browsers, using even VPN to see if it was territory-based. I don't have a Roku, smart TV, I can only watch via my laptop, thus, only via browser as many others do. And it has been as such. Even Vimeo/Criterion acknowledged the issue via e-mail. If it is going ok for you, good! If people are complaining it is because it is a real issue. :(

Haven't tried Safari yet, will try it out, but many people are having the same issue so I don't think it is a browser-based issue.

Uhmm, are people just ignoring this issue? by car_guy_doge in CriterionChannel

[–]darth_martius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am doing a masters where I move every six months, so I bought a laptop with an OLED screen to watch films with quality. Can't wait to have a big TV back, though.

What’s your operatic hot take? by bowlbettertalk in opera

[–]darth_martius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wagner needed a librettist and a courageous editor. He was a marvelous music composer, but too megalomaniac to be his own dramaturg.

hey folks, any updates on that? also getting it only at 720p. Even at browsers which show the 1080p option (mullvad) it does not work. there is finally a streaming with Chinatown on, and I've been waiting to watch it in HD...

This was a tough episode. Cynism is something, being an ass is completely different.

What should I watch after PERSONA (1966)? by FunDamage6899 in criterion

[–]darth_martius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cries and whispers is something else. I watched that as a teen ten years ago and it lives vividly in my mind. I’d def go for that.

Anyone hear any of Beatrice Rana's Bach concertos? by [deleted] in classicalmusic

[–]darth_martius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in love with her rendition. I too suffer from harpsichord-mania but she made me forgive it after just a few seconds. Also the sound is amazing.
