He just blue himself.

Also; tribalism.

I think you mean Jeb!

True. In the grand tradition of the internet I only responded to the headline.

More users that aren’t Americans talking about their politics would be nice.

I was born in 1980, so was far too young for that when it originally aired, then never got around to it until a few weeks ago.

And fuck me, there is nothing cheerful about that film in the slightest. Nothing. It’s a great piece though.

The first half of Life is Beautiful is perfectly named.

The second half…

Ok, I’ll take back the bit about your cunt kids.

Cinema Paradiso is such a beautiful thing. First time I watched it I wanted to start it all over again.

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta.

Firstly, Fury Road is a masterpiece. I just wanted to agree with you.

Secondly; have you ever played Ghost of Tsushima? It has a Kurosawa mode that’s really beautiful. You can play the whole game in a rich, moody black and white. It’s a gimmick, sure, but a nice one.

I’m bona fide!

I saw Grave of the Fireflies once.

Once.

Could never bring myself to go through it again, despite how utterly beautiful it is.

But my favourite thing about it is that it was originally a double bill with My Neighbour Totoro. Imagine seeing those two back to back. You’d get some serious emotional whiplash.

As much as I enjoyed Banshees, it didn’t have the snappiness and immediacy of In Bruges.

That movie is damn near perfect.

In a way I’m glad we didn’t get a sequel, because the execs would have diluted it down to a PG rating in order to maximise the merch sales.

I get that most people are just listing their favourite movies, and that’s fair, but I feel like a lot of them are already well watched.

My suggestion is The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.

Everything about it is a stunning piece of cinema that got massively overlooked at the time, and I don’t really know why. It stars Brad Pitt and Casey Affleck, has a score by Nick Cave (who has a cameo) and Warren Ellis, and has cinematography by the mighty Roger Deakins.

On the cinematography; you could pause it at almost any point, take a screengrab, and print it out for display. It’s a stunningly well shot movie.

Nothing about the movie is fast. Everything takes place as it needs to, in its own time, all creeping glacially towards what you know is going to happen.

I adore this movie. I showed it to my kid a couple of years ago, fearful that he would hate it. Turned out he loved it as much as I do. It’s the best western I’ve ever seen, but to call it a western does it a disservice.

As a fellow school child in the ‘90s, I can confirm that almost anything anyone did was gay. Holding hands with a girl? Gay. Liking video games? Gay.

Have you considered seeking an ADHD assessment?

You have my empathy, friend. Be strong, and never forget that your inherent value is not tied up in how much you earn.

I’d probably lay on my sofa, mindlessly scrolling, beating myself up for not being more productive. It’s the ADHD way and there’s nothing you can do about it.
