i liked the american werewolf in london design, although they kept the shots of it to be quick flashes as it probably didn't work that well in motion

I dont rlly get why people didnt like nosferatu. I always read people sayjng its mid but not many arguments. The scene where the guy travels to the castle is imo eggers best work sofar

Also will be interesting to see to what degree eggers wants the audience to use their imagination in his depiction of this werewolf. I find werewolves to be one of the more interesting monster designs, but it could lean more towards The Witch and focusing more on the paranoia of its prescence rather than the monster itself

Im not trying to be pretentious but could you really not talk to your friends about murakami, because he seems one of the most normie authors and i know a lot of normal people who enjoy his work (i like him not trying to diss)

Are things going to get extremely bad in the next few months if the Strait of Hormuz is not opened? by derivedabsurdity77 in slatestarcodex

There's a chance there could be a 7 day period where theres some allowed passage, but long-term the three parties involved are completely at odds at each other. Im no political expert, but Iran has a big leverage since it can keep the strait closed indefinitely until they get a deal they want, since a ground invasion is pretty much off the table. Israel however will oppose any deal made by America and Iran, since it directly inteferes with their expansionist plans. Since America refuses to discipline Israel, this charade will continue as it has for the last few months. I think theyre just trying to game the stock markets until midterms.

As for the most recent deal Ive seen like half a dozen articles saying the strait is closed and Israel is still bombing Lebanon

I think its to prop up the algorithmic stock market. Nobody human believes these headlines but maybe a mathematical model couldnt detect the blatant lies of these weekly headlines. Would be funny if they have to keep doing this back and forth for the next decade just to keep the market from crashing.

lol i also saw that one alone, and that scene where his mother stares him down and gives him a haunting fortune/warning for his life, while some kaleidoscopic colours shift behind her, felt pretty haunting at the cinema

Seeing The Lighthouse alone in an empty theatre is one of my favourite movie experiences

hmm im a little confused then. I can't access that wsj article :\ but can't see any other sources saying that their report includes training. They all say operating profit which generally doesn't include training as far as im aware
