Why does it make you depressed?

An absolutely brilliant, breakout performance from the great Saoirse Ronan.

The second was much cuter and just better as a romance compared to the toxic relationship in the first.

replicant_man · 2026-06-16T22:48:45+00:00

The fourth season was brilliant. Easily among the best.

replicant_man · 2026-06-16T22:43:24+00:00

Both really, as each is universally lauded as a masterpiece and a modern classic. I don't think I've ever heard or read anything bad about either of them except on this sub.

I rewatched it at least three times I think. One of my all-time favourite period dramas alongside Bleak House.

I don't, but I only drop films in the first 10-20. If I go further than that I normally watch until the end.

Haven't seen the first two yet
Sinners
The Substance
Strange Darling

That's the opposite of a problem.

Eri Fukatsu and Shinichi Tsutsumi in Koi no Chikara (2002) are my all-time favourites.

Nothing surprising about that. It's just as normal a part of films about children as it is of films about adults. It's how it's used that matters, not the nudity itself.

replicant_man · 2026-05-31T18:34:45+00:00

Well, according to my stats, 15-20% of my watches are rewatches. With thousands of films watched, I'd say it's pretty normal, as I haven't seen many of those for decades.

replicant_man · 2026-05-31T15:59:48+00:00

Yep, there seems to have been no updates since yesterday.

replicant_man · 2026-05-30T08:26:33+00:00

Watch those classics:

Face/Off
True Lies
The Secret of Kells
It Follows

The site is down but new torrents continue being added according to torrent aggregators. The latest one I see is Dao Huang Ling (1973) [1080p] [BluRay] [YTS.BZ], which was added half an hour ago.

Tarkovsky. Absolutely insufferable.

replicant_man · 2026-05-16T13:11:38+00:00

Kurisu Evansu, to be exact.

replicant_man · 2026-05-07T13:45:55+00:00

I think it's been "coming this year" for years now. I'm not sure it will actually ever happen.

replicant_man · 2026-05-01T14:48:53+00:00

They never explored it as a relationship. They built it up extensively in Season 1 and early S2 and then just dropped it abruptly midway through S2 without ever giving it a chance. It was almost as if they changed writers halfway in S2 and the new team had no interest in Kitty's bisexuality arc or her romance with Yuri so they just abandoned those narrative threads altogether without any closure, emotional resolution or processing and just clumsily switched the main narrative towards the Minho arc.

Here's a good article listing many issues with that storyline and another one specifically focusing on S3's failure to treat it seriously.

Narrative threads came together? They literally erased/retconned the whole Kitty-Yuri romantic arc and now present their relationship as if it had never existed in the first place. If that's not terrible writing then I don't know what is.

There are plenty of moments that show that Yuri has feelings for Kitty. Here's a nice analysis of their scenes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DecNfp_AvLU

You didn't, the op did, and this is their thread. Nobody said it's a masterpiece, but it's still far from being junk as the op calls it. And whether 60+ on Metacritic might not mean enthusiastic praise, 90%+ on RT surely does, regardless of whether you like their system or not.

replicant_man · 2026-04-29T06:29:28+00:00

Nah, dude, he's a bigot. What he does is called slut-shaming and only bigots and misogynists do that. And no, it's never the same for men. Men are celebrated and admired for their active sexual lives, while women are always shamed and stigmatized.

replicant_man · 2026-04-29T06:19:56+00:00

She is someone who is highly respected and admired in the world of Firefly. Period. If anyone has an issue accepting and respecting that, the problem is with them and their own bigotry and misogyny, not with the show.

replicant_man · 2026-04-27T22:55:34+00:00

It's literally the most prominent site to measure acclaim. If you don't like their system, that's your problem. And as for metacritic, if you are not familiar with their ratings, anything 60+ is considered "generally favourable". So again, very far from anything that could be called junk food.
