Not sure that it matters - as long as you have the gist of the (many) sub-plots - the real story (tragedy?) is about what happens to Jimmy/Saul and Kim - I think it’s a masterpiece.

Selling Sunset S5. Excellent.

This series is gash. Avoid.

4 edisodes in nothing has moved on since the opening scenes, apart from the introduction of quasi-ironic characters.

Filed under W for wank.

Severance is really good.

Hahha, and this is why Christopher Nolan films are actual PISH.

Interesting critique of Nolan’s use of exposition

1 Like

Someone’s I idly wonder if Nolan is a psychopath, and needs to explain emotion because he can’t experience it!

He does headfuck better than anyone, but all his recent films have been close to great without quite actually making it. I’ve really enjoyed them all, but they have been lacking. Those comments on exposition really hit the mark.

He needs to explain his stories because they’re full of unnecessarily over complicated concepts that make fuck all sense, and make you not care or give a shit what happens in them.

He may do the head fuck moment but he’s gash at telling a story

This is excellent. You mostly know the story but seeing who Navalny actually is, what he’s like & particularly the sting phone call made to the FSB guy who tried to kill him is fascinating. All made the more poignant from now knowing where Putin went next.

Maybe this should be in the YouTube thread, but I’m watching it on the big screen via the stereo (hifi) set up.
Raw, but still one of the best live bands anywhere.

(I’d have gone had my wife not been away).
