a mammasantissima of a record. it's the record of the day, would you look at that, and today it's spinning with such pleasure. from home, on the subway, while I punch in. too bad it doesn't play during the work shift.

I remember when I was little and a superhero movie was practically an event; I remember my dad not wanting to let me see the Batman with Jack Nicholson, saying it would haunt my sleep for days. Now Marvel's studios seem like a crazy machine. Or simply a factory. I haven’t seen this, but the first two by Raimi for the genre were mouth-watering (especially the second one). Moreover, they were totally works of the director "under license" rather than films directly "on commission." At this point, they could even leave out the director’s name. Aside from distancing the genre from real cinema, was there really a need for that?

it comes close to my very personal definition of non-game; in the sense that I have never understood why it was so successful. Or maybe it's a complex representation of the human being as a machine of needs, (complete with bars that go up and down) who knows. The fact is, I even tried to play it once, but I became depressed upon discovering that the only interesting feature was the one that allowed me to fast forward time..

a lot of free time, huh? this is THE multiplayer, the game that goes on for a thousand and more hours with a bunch of idiots by your side (in your ears) yelling CECCHINI! - get your camper ass up and come revive me - in short, everything that console gamers would have struggled to imagine when playing cod back in 2007. the technical aspect is only good for filling magazine pages and getting the hormone pumping for the nerd who bought a 300 euro fan for his pc. on consoles, it looks like crap, but if online means team shooting, then nothing comparable will come out for a while.

truly beautiful review. I had to reach the end to realize that I actually played this on the old Xbox. I don't know how the original was, but the remake was technically amazing and had a wonderful multiplayer. maybe I still have it, I’ll put it back on :)

A mess. At times amusing, completely out of focus regarding the attempt to contextualize his cinema (and the usual themes that come with it) in the Neapolitan context. Caught between Fellinian clichés, a bland critique of contemporary Italian society leaves you feeling almost disgusted in the end. Perhaps today's Italy is truly very uninspiring, but a film like this wasn't needed to understand that.

I got the first five in a box set for about twenty euros. I started with Twitch (great) and gradually got tired with the arrival of increasingly cheesy guitars from one album to the next. When it comes to industrial, I definitely prefer other stuff (foetus, cop shoot cop, neubauten) which still remains quite accessible and enjoyable. I'll listen to this for the reasons mentioned in comment 6 :)

Aside from this the film is objectively dull and uninteresting. It's not even shot particularly well, even though I wasn't expecting a Zodiac or a Seven. I have to think that the book is really quite insignificant.

this is poppettino, and the production is terrible. they will make up for it later, but they remain overrated. from here on, everything that comes out of Great Britain stinks of fraud.
