Book of the New Sun?

no

It's because they're all poshos or jihadists.

I bet if you hung out with some actual jihadis you'd find they have camaraderie out the wazzoo.

watched the first one at the cinema tonite. seemed more dopey on the big screen, largely becasue the volume is deafening so you notice how heavily it leans on that boneheaded soundtrack. still a cool film though.

as someone on twitter said, nothing can change the fact that I just don't like looking at Timothee Chalomet's face

it's an awful face.

I feel like it's the same as with the tinker tailor mess where unless you actually know the story it makes no sense

 

[luka]

yeah cos it says it already in this thread

I watched the first part in London after a trip to the national gallery. I had a tiny bit of hash left over that @sufi lent me I smoked before the show. Very fond memory

 

[sus]

Thats embarrassing well at least I didnt perjure myself did I tell it consistently

 

[sus]

Its a long thread I really didn't remember

 

[luka]

i could of watched the 2nd one straight after part one but 6 hours of dune would be excessive

 

[luka]

Josh brolin is another weird cast. No one outside of america looks like him

hes awful. gruff shouting and frowning.

 

[Corpsey]

I am quite interested in watching part two now cos it's had rapturous reviews and apparently the plot kicks up a gear

Despite being left by the first one with an impression of dreariness

 

[luka]

it's going to be great lets go together at beckton multiplex

Which is exactly what the critics (and most everyone else) said about the David Lynch version, too.

Need a director's cut with no humans, just giant worms and spaceships 'splodin

 

[Corpsey]

still a cool film though.

Vaccine induced cerebral decay

luka, have you ever bought capers where the neck of the jar is smaller than all of the spoons you own? literally the worst thing ever

 

[luka]

yes i have. even olives on occasion. you have to use the spoon handle but its not very satisfactory.
