Watched Holy Smoke! for the first time the other day. Worth it just to see Harvey Keitel's Pulp Fiction persona get deconstructed as he goes batshit insane in the Outback.
Also, Kate Winslet's accent was flawless.

People keep trying to diagnose the real cause of the MCU's problems.
There's only one cause: bloat.
The market is oversaturated, the narrative demands on the audience are too great and the formula is stale.
Like any long-running series, it has a lifespan. The only fix is to end it.

All the huffing and puffing about Australia accepting American beef, and yet no one seems to notice that we've made a tokenistic concession that continues to protect our biosecurity and will result in absolutely marginal imports. This is how you play Trump: operate on a purely surface level.

Despite a lip-synched performance without his actual band, this may be the truest glimpse of Peter Gabriel’s authentic artistic self. The makeup echoes his Genesis-era theatricality, but now it carries a deeper immediacy. It's transcendence via transparent mediation.

ANZAC Day isn’t glory--it's the loss of young lives spilled for the benefit of a distant empire. Gallipoli became our genesis because federation felt paper-thin; betrayal gave us blood, mud and myth. We gather at dawn to remember pain, not triumph.
And yet we keep repeating the mistake.

This is a great window into Scarfe's grotesque style. The body warps and decays under his pen, with malevolence bursting out like diseased pustules. This is matter corrupted by psychic rot, not some external Demiurge messing things up.
