It would be interesting to know which episode of lived experience or which blog of breatharians/illuminati triggered this mediocre and prosaic resentment, to which your persistent and provincial use of the plurale maiestatis doesn't even help.
Equally curious is the pathetic j'accuse against some kind of system, quickly followed by the equally pathetic sabotage of the vote to "put you back on page."
Ugh, can you smell the stench emanating from all of this!

The premises for a mediocre film were all there, and you mention them all. The trailer already suggests that the film's approach is not only far from historical reality, but there's something fundamentally wrong with this Napoleon, who appears at the very least hastily done.
The problem lies precisely with the subject in question: he is not Robin Hood or Moses, characters you can easily afford to romanticize. Bonaparte is perhaps the only historical figure about whom we know everything, with reasonable accuracy when not with extreme precision. There are no major secrets or possible interpretations of his actions; his inexorable clarity and his own awareness of being "unique" prevent it.
The battle scenes I’ve seen further confirm the general inconsistency of the picture. What a shame; but the character is so enormous that condensing him into a film is madness. Unless one chooses to narrate a single episode; Bondarchuk teaches us that.

A straightforward report without frills, not bad at all..
Cover clearly in early-2000s style!

Ah, also a poet!
(Molcj sincerely thanks for these bytes and for the hearty meal about to begin)

Good recommendation, I wasn't familiar with the band..
I'll give this album a try because the atmosphere you've described intrigues me and the cover has its charm, in my opinion..

Remarkable. Indeed, impressive.
Unfortunately, it’s not clear to me how much of the text is a review and how much is being reviewed.
I would have preferred a more structured analytical framework, because after all we are talking about History, but this is fine as well.
Am I wrong or does (more than) one person, in 2023, still want to "drink the blood of the Jews," wish that AH had succeeded in "finishing"?

Having seen and read the review..
I didn’t comment because I’m a bit afraid of repeating myself.. Emphasizing the "occultist" aspect of HPL, even if "for good reasons," isn’t really an approach that excites me much..
Then, when I think about what has been done in the past to ideologize Lovecraft's writings, I feel even worse..
Is Joshi's biography better, in your opinion?

"We embrace you with fervor
We don’t ask, please
We are neither beautiful nor small
We are the child-eating trees"
Whoever correctly interprets this ANCIENT Vedic saying is... well, good job?

The film is well made, with a nice use of models, optical effects, and matte paintings, a "low-tech" approach that I think pays off immensely. It's also well acted, but everyone talks too much, babbles, philosophizes, and delivers convoluted monologues while floating in space... Well... The ending is almost disgraceful, a somewhat childish and relatively incomprehensible way to resolve a situation with no way out...
One must consider that Nolan takes money from Hollywood: how can you explain the physics of black holes well to an audience raised on Star Wars, football, and deep-fried chicken wings in bison lard without propping up a screenplay that often goes off the rails? You can't...

@[Elfo Cattivone] and anyone who wants to join the debate might enlighten us on the "eternal dilemma": did we go to the Moon or not??
