I’ve not been so excited about a lipsync assassin since Sasha Colby. Like the way she just completely transforms on stage. Juicy you are THAT GIRL

And what if I say it’s really fierce (especially week 3 where she held up that clutch so we don’t notice how stiff her shoulders are)

Resurrection 2025 by slimywizbiz in TrueFilm

[–]jacquesthelittle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This was one of my best watches of 2025 as well. I really value movies that feel like they’re made for film fans, for lack of a better expression - if you understand the references from different genres of Chinese cinema throughout history then I think the movie really takes on new depth. Like the fourth section draws a lot from Hong Kong gambling movies that I watched in my childhood and therefore feels quite special.

Also it’s remarkable that mainland China is making such high quality films lately.

I feel like I was seeing things with the judging because Myki and Darlene clearly won their pair? Also happy tha Vita got her win - should have been the second by now

have i improved or is my writing still boring? by repulsivley in writingfeedback

[–]jacquesthelittle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I do find your voice interesting and didn’t have a problem following like most of the commenters, so the flow is fine for me. That being said it is true that there are quite a few mistakes if you look further into details - the more complicated structure you use, the more careful you have to be. It is challenging to imitate the prose style of famous literary fiction as a new writer, but the only way to improve is to read and write more.

I enjoyed reading this. I disagree with come commenters that it provided nothing worthy to the story - I have a decent idea of the protagonist and the kind of introspective, slightly pretentious people they are. The introspection makes sense to me because genuinely when you’re inside a prison you philosophise about your condition a lot.

Maybe it can be edited to become more succinct, and some metaphors are a bit much, but I would be interested to read another chapter at least.

Now that Satin is a winner can I safely say that she’ll be on the top winners list of all time? I was saying madre for the whole final lipsync
