Y'know, it makes perfect sense that Guillermo del Toro and James Cameron were roommates who introduced each other to Patlabor and Battle Angel Alita.

Die Lust an der Grausamkeit ist das Kennzeichen des Faschismus.

Nie wieder bedeutet alles dafür zu tun diese Dynamiken zu verhindern. Es ist nie ganz zu spät. Menschen dürfen nicht in den Faschismus hinein gesogen werden. Am Ende stehen immer Gewalt, Tod und Zerstörung.
"Es war nicht eine kleine Zahl von Verbrechern, es waren Hunderttausende einer sogenannten deutschen Elite, Männer, Jungen & entmenschte Weiber, die unter dem Einfluss verrückter Lehren in kranker Lust diese Taten begangen haben."

Thomas Mann

Yes.
100% yes.
Art comes from pain.
Art saves you.
Touching only one other person through art makes it all worth it.
...
But then, one day, suddenly and surprisingly, you create something from pure heartfelt happiness. That is the most spectacular and oddest feeling.
Here’s @realgdt.bsky.social in NYC expanding on his rallying cry of ‘fuck AI!’, talking about how art and even love come from shared pain and movies can save your life. This shit made me and others in the audience cry as much as his version of Frankenstein…

Deserved love for one of the best movies
Denden’s Movie Den. No. 126. Tremors. Oh, I can’t tell you how good it felt to see this wonderful creature feature again after many years. It used to be on TV all the time in the 90s, and I think I didn’t miss a single chance to see it. Like with many of the best '90s movies, I was addicted. (1/8)

This is introducing an algorithm through a backdoor.
I (literally) didn't sign up for this.
Are the devs tone deaf or are they already actively planning enshittification?

Wie stoppen wir die AfD? In der neuen Zeitsturz-Ausgabe fragen wir: Wann müssen wir eine CDU-AfD-Regierung stürzen? Nicht ob, sondern: Wann müssen wir sie stürzen? 🔥
Woran erkennen wir, ob das Grundgesetz noch gilt?

I have no idea if this creator has a film background, but if not, they have an incredible eye for composition. This, and their other works, would actually be a great teaching tool for an editing/boarding/cinematography class. Clever camera angles, strong posing, and easy to follow despite quick cuts

Sorry, Fangoria. But you're just proving what a garbage Plattform Netflix is for horror fans.
FYI: You'll find new and classic horror among the best horror movies on Netflix. The streamer has expanded the number of scary movies for October and has the premiere of a new film and a new series just for Halloween, along with some true fright films that you should catch, especially if you've…

At my old employer, to open the bathroom door, we had to locate three crests in the house. The logistics were convuluted and awful: for one of the crests we had to play a tune on a piano while the ceiling came crushing down.

We pissed in the flower pots.

Yet another X Files article done by the way, this time covering John Vulich's work on the sixth season.

As usual, gore effects warning.
