Damn, never knew any of that! Also yeah James Murphy nailed it at the Fillmore.

Testament. “Return to Serenity.” 1992. When the solos were songs-within-a-song.

Megadeth. “Liar.” 1988. Written after Chris Poland stole Mustaine’s one-of-a-kind BC Rich 10 string, a Jackson Soloist, and a bunch of Marshall amps and sold them for smack. They found out when they discovered the pawn ticket with his name on it.

As Slayer and Megadeth are calling it quits now for real *cough* this was them saying hello —

“ #speed #thrash #death #gloom #black #heavy #hard #jazz #fusion #heavymetal “

To say it’s the AotY almost feels too constrained for what this music genre has been dying for since around 2005 when everything started to recycle again

Dissection. “Night’s Blood.” 1995. The one thing that never really gets much mention about The Somberlain and Storm of the Light’s Bane is Ole Öhman’s drumming. Damn, that kid could play.

Yeah I went in knowing NOTHING — never saw a trailer or read a review and my mind was blown. I think mostly because it’s so unique and it’s so refreshing to see film makers just taking their cameras and shooting woodland scenes in an actual woodland.

Nice!!!!!

Just think about how staggeringly unique the film is, without reliance on digital cheating of faking animal shots etc — that’s not even multiple dogs either, just one the whole time. Indy. 🥰 3 years in the making, unreal

How refreshing it is to see a real living, breathing animal on the screen that keeps you immersed in the story

There’s 2 dogs in the film, Indy and Bandit, and they’re both *real* — well trained, beautiful looking dogs. Down to the whimpers and puppy eyes.

[that’s where we are with cinema in 2025, applauding the use of real animals over cheap looking CGI shite like that overhyped Frankenstein nonsense]

We are unwatchable. This isn’t even basic football, I don’t know how Slot can defend himself here. I don’t blame the players at all, this is all disastrous tactics and formation.

Good Boy. 2025. Dir: Ben Leonberg. To call this a horror film short-changes its central theme of a dog’s unwavering loyalty and love — told entirely from the perspective of ‘Indy’, simply, it underlines how we don’t deserve dogs. Watch this film and hug yer little ones. So good. So, so good.

Agreed, it’s Slot. What’s alarming is how his formations continue to neuter our 9. Whether it’s Isak or Ekitke, the sideways passing and inshalla crosses are frankly getting embarrassing now, to the extent that Slot looks lost at sea. No matter how this game ends, questions still need to be asked.

I’m assuming you’ve seen I Saw the Devil — that’s absolutely mandatory. Hyper violent serial killer versus super cop revenge thriller.

In a Violent Nature is the way to go. It’s a slow burn in its tranquility, a near first person journey through the open woodland — from the perspective of the slasher — and then each kill is utterly callous and drawn out.

C really stands out. Not only being fine with it but interrupting Mamdani being able to field the question. It’s like he took a bullet for him.

In a Violent Nature is an outlier for me because I don’t really go for the gratuitous stuff like the Terrifier films

I’ve checked out some torture porn [Saw, Hostel] & French New Extreme [Martyrs, Inside] — the latter are especially brutal

I’ve avoided A Serbian Film, Human Centipede, Irreversible

I love everything about this.

That’s amazing. These are memories you’ll treasure forever.

You know, as I said it out loud, a “hey, how have you been” is treated as a simple ‘hello’, but “hey, what have you been up to lately?” is maybe a different way of asking that evokes a more direct response 🤔

Yeah it all depends on what the dynamic is — amongst all my guy friends, it’s just a pause-play interaction, we just pick up where we left off even if it’s been a couple of years. My girl friends though, damn — they’re like ‘this is what I’ve been up to’ and they go into details

When someone says, “hey, how’s it going?”, no one actually expects an answer on how it’s going 🙃

You crushed it.

Even if it’s only ceremonial, the optics are incredible —

2010 is actually an awesome sci-fi flick in its own right, and without all the artsy fartsy stuff of 2001

🤣

Even in some of his ‘lesser’ movies, he always had the spotlight
