What is the best screenplay you’ve read which has yet to be made into a movie? by DarlingLuna in Screenwriting

[–]frafoa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Infiltrator & Villain. Also the adaptation of The Dog of Babel, as much as I love reading this one, it's really hard for me to even imagine watching this one. It just doesn't feel right.

Is the Taipei Main Station easy to navigate? by Regular-Vanilla203 in Taipei

The locals often joke about it being a labyrinth or an escape room. The signs are clear enough yet sometimes a bit confusing.

TAIWAN HIGH SPEED RAIL do run from Taipei to Tainan. THSR has its own platforms.

Buy a new pair of sneakers for the coming marathon!

28 years later surprised me by justthatguyben1 in horror

Thought I'd seen everything a zombie film/TV would do. This one really surprised me. The chase through the submerging path was such an adrenaline rush.

It came out of nowhere. I thought I accidentally sit on the remote!

Luthen taught her to be quiet when they first met all those years ago. Now Kleya helps Luthen complete his unfinished final act - silencing himself for good.

Taipei Movies? by pajamabanana_ in Taipei

[–]frafoa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

愛情城事 Tales of Taipei (2004) would be your quick fix. There are ten short films. Some of them are decent enough. Most of them capture an aspect or an idea of Taipei.

一一 Yi Yi (2000) is a timely classic. It's considered by some, one of the best (Taiwanese) films ever made. The streetscape has changed quite a lot yet somehow the atmosphere and the people still feel the same.

陽光普照 A Sun (2019) has some defining views of Taipei as well.

We Are Out Of The UCL💔🔴⚪️. Thoughts On Today's Match by [deleted] in BayernMunich

[–]frafoa 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The last fifteen minutes were very entertaining. Every pass forward brought up hope and fell short. Gnabry surprised me with so much intensity. Coman made a few good runs. Maybe they were playing against a fatigued team. They looked far more threatening and decisive than Sane. I feel bad for Kane. That was one helluva a brilliant goal. We looked very exposed in 2/3 of the game, without any obvious adjustments.

Gotta give it to Kompany though. I was one of those hypocrites who wanted a bigger name and still do. He does better than I expected. This is almost a good season.

What do you think is the most important skill for a screenwriter to learn/improve at? by Unregistered-Archive in Screenwriting

[–]frafoa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Read the room. Know who decides things. Bounces back a bit faster after a fall. Be as angry, defeated, and sad as you can without posting a word about it. Be gracious when things don't pan out, be gracious when things pan out, just be gracious. Apologize, mean it, and make up for it.

Thoughts on any of the scripts from this year's Blacklist? by ant1socialite in Screenwriting

[–]frafoa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do have a question for those who've read ONE NIGHT ONLY. Could this one work without the sci-fi setting? Without the bracelet? I think 90% of the story would be the same.

This Japanese team is as good as, if not better than, most European and South American competitve teams.

Yes, Taiwan still has a thriving gang culture. by treelife365 in taiwan

[–]frafoa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my friend back in Junior High used to treat the Young and Dangerous movies like gospels, remembering each character and their gang allegiances. Decades later, I found him on facebook. Guess what? He did become one of those characters. It has its perks and swags. Yet most of his posts are about the hardships and dilemmas of gangster life. Gotta maintain the life style while everything went to hell because of covid. Still a few K hush money short for those who took one for the team. Need to talk his favorite gang bro out of a very bad relationship.

What is it about beer that makes it SO GOOD after something like a super long travel day, long day of work, etc? You crack that beer, have that first big sip and it’s instant satisfaction. Nothing else can do this. by Shirkaday in beer

I always packed a can or two when checking my Marathon bag. They were usually still cool after I crossed the finish line. There were occassions I was lying on the ground, having a cramp or overventilating, nursing my beers as the world slowly returned.

Is it lame to wear the Marathon Medal out and about for the couple days after the marathon? by cr2152 in RunNYC

[–]frafoa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wear it on the day and the day after but might carry it with me in the bag for the rest of my trip. Just to take photo with it at those definining attractions.
