Well I guess the good news is that if there were news footage if it on fire at least it wouldn't be a prestige loss, as The Admiral Kuznetsov's default state is on fire.
I think logistically even if the allies had been routed by the time they had got to Normandy the Soviets would have been in Berlin.
Wasn't it that they wouldn't let him make interstellar till he had made DKR? Same deal with TDK and inception?
Nolan just making the best superhero films of all time so he can get to his true passion, films about father's who are busy doing superhero films to see their kids.
Yeah it felt less impressive recognising The Terror when the film ends with Micheal Caine looks into the camera and says "This film is about The Terror."
Going into dkr it my friend had been talking about the revolutionary communist things apparently from the trailer. Halfway through I thought "Actually this is the /french/ revolution." And was really proud of picking up the subtle clues.
Then Alfred quotes Tale of Two cites at the funeral...
I think the worst thing about DKR is that he felt he needed to 'Break the Bat' which leads to the months long hostage situation which really took me out of the film.
But it was so weird hownthe marketing clearly seemed to think that the wormhole being realistic was a selling point. Instead of just saying "We gave Zimmer an Organ and made him promise not to just do the Gladiator sound track again this time."
"I talked to serious astrophysics about the astronomy. And I didn't talk to a single person who had experiance of playing Kerbal Space program or above when I came to designing the ships."
(Its a great film, but, hahaha I do love the people pretending it is serious physics. Sure that little shuttle has relativistic delta v capability.)
I mean, its either that or Genghis Kahn does not appreciate being mocked and can kill you from the afterlife.
I'm so annoyed the studio forced out Tenent during covid.
Sure its not his best, but it deserved so much more than it got.
That typo gave me vertigo for a second...!
Although actually a check in the wiki reminds me they actually added a /lot/ of stuff, which also made the betrayal just very different from the books.
Interstellar is a bit like a roller coaster too in that its all escalation untill the "I'm docking...no its not possible, its nessiscary" when Hans goes to town on the organs.
Basically everything before and after is fine.
I mean they fundamentally changed the character background which makes it really hard to beleive that Tyrion was able to convince himself that she really loved him.
"Through friendly territory" is also a fun one because it assumes that the *checks notes* dozens of nuclear strikes won't make the territory less friendly.
In the morning when they came round with the coffee they did take the piss out of my hungover self "Are you sure you dont want another beer?".
When I flew to Tokyo I either drank all the beer in the business class cabin or drank enough beer that they very politely cut me off whilst pretending not to.
I was actually going to say that yeah if you want to get your moneys worth you need to be hitting the spirits.
Yesterday I was in a lounge in Italy looking at at all the bottles and googling their names with "...and tonic" after them to decide what to have.
Turns out Campri and tonic is nice!
Trying not to make eye contact with the guy next to you at the lounge, as you both wait to make your second large gin and tonic of the past 15 minutes.
The deterrence plan in full:
The formatting of this Beckett quote does still represent resilience and determination, just of a very different sort.
It is very fun when after 90 minutes of Leo being stressed out of his mind, this master of Zen just casually organises an evacuation with a beer in hand.
"What if the agressive performative masculinity of bro culture was melted with the productivitymaxxing mindset of LinkedIn?"
Hello, I'm mental.
Thanks to frozen thresholds and the triple lock "Why should I have to pay income tax on MY state pension!" Discourse is coming to a G7 country near you!
BTW I was in Aachen last August. The little museum by the bridge is well worth a look.
But had the Germans blown the bridge, it would all have been for nothing.
A plan that relies on the enemy is a bad plan!
The planners were all "We must do something! This is something! We must do this!"
