I don't understand what the hell they do or even how they do it.. Whatever...

Amid exaggerations and the usual bullshit, you said one thing that is sacred to me: Wyatt is a total prick.
End.

I know I can be arrogant, but I will always disdain the unscientific and unobjective attitude that De Turris has adopted in his "reading" of Lovecraft. It's also his fault that the very loose interpretations and forced parallels still today undermine the complex and dichotomous reality of such an anomalous and complex writer. After all, you know how I feel about the pretentious intellectuals who shove HPL into any science fiction work.
And you might say: "So what?"
And you would be right!

I never read it when I was a kid, but only a few years ago as an ultra-ultra-thirty-something... It’s a book that leaves a mark, that captivates, that is almost frightening... In my opinion, you aimed a bit too high and stretched the comparison with the cd "giorni nostri"... The book, however you look at it, has not aged poorly at all because it is a brutal, simple, and inescapable story of human beings trying to survive despair... Of course, there are metaphors, parallels, etc., but the beauty is that the pulsating core of the narrative is the agonizing reality of human weakness in the face of something overwhelming... I have always been much more struck by the evocative landscape and environmental descriptions rather than the movements of the characters themselves... The sense of total desolation that emerges from the descriptions of the island is something that has greatly captivated me, and so far I have found very little that could hold up to the comparison... It's a shame that in this meticulously crafted analysis, the landscape factor is mentioned only en passant... I would like to point out the good film adaptation from 1963, which is very faithful to the book, while the horrible "remake" from 1990 is something to scoff at, indeed out of time, dated, and completely unnecessary...

In my opinion, you’ve read too much into this series, which is simply a lot of fun, packed with absurd situations, well-produced and acted, and most importantly, capable of not being boring. In the end, all the characters end up being annoying, some for excessive cynicism, some for weakness, some for madness, and some for just having too much bad luck. Compared to the first season, the second one does indeed have more plot and some characters are better balanced, and overall I judged it to be better. We’ll see when and how the screenwriters will raise the stakes, because Homelander will have to lose it for real sooner or later. It goes without saying that the most memorable character is him; the series is practically his.

I haven't read this particular book, but in the accounts of Italians at war (the last one I read was "Artiglierie semoventi ad alzo zero" by Beretta, about the defeats in North Africa), there is always a constant to keep in mind: the human drama, the suffering, the relief found in the spirit of camaraderie and the shared experiences stand out against the backdrop of a totally wrong, guilty, infamous historical and strategic situation of aggression. All this to say that it is not easy to understand and then narrate what happens on those fronts we opened and what the soldiers of that Kingdom of Italy endured. Good review, but I am not entirely convinced by the rhetoric of being human and DNA. This is how we are, there is nothing to be done. Sensitivity will combine, the way we articulate and conceive violence, but we are more war than love.

@[MarkRChandar] indeed, that's exactly the point: how someone at DC/Warner thought it possible to achieve the same numbers as Marvel when the tones chosen by the screenwriters required a much more careful audience adaptation and story development.

The bizarre thing about these overblown meatballs filled with plaster is that they can't even manage to be disgusting; they are simply slovenly, interchangeable, boring, boring, boring.. This is compounded by the fact that it has further hobbled perhaps the most palatable character in Marvel.. Is it ever possible that we can't be entertained anymore, not even with comics?
Anyway, I think DC isn't entirely terrible in itself: it's the commercial doctrine and the production attitude that are horrifying, the characters and tones aren't completely invalid..

Imagine that they widened (in vain) the Suez Canal and they still haven't thought about cloning Debbie Harry… Or were you thinking of Debbie Gibson?
