BritManToo Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Gentleman of Moscow, Strangely woke, plenty of blacks and a few from India in 1920 Moscow, but no Russian Asians. I guess the Russian Asians never made it to Hollywood. Bit dull as well! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post oxo1947 Posted April 10 Popular Post Share Posted April 10 The Dig --- Movie Crime---Ireland 2019 I liked this --Low Budget Irish Crime film--Good acting has a twist at the end---A bit dark Like most Irish stuff it can be difficult to find, I got from Chaos... Not to be confused with --The Dig 2021 Northern Ireland so the accents can be stronger. If you want subs https://subttsearch.com/subtitle-details/?imdbID=tt7512276#gsc.tab=0 Made best Irish Movie that year. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowtail Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Saw "Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire" today: Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024) - IMDb Not really a Godzilla or monster movie fan, but this was actually a pretty good picture. Saw it at Mega Cineplex in an LG LED theater and it was pretty great audio visually. No shortage of silliness, but all in all a pretty good watch. I'll go 7/10, but I'd guess a 5-6/10 if I'd have watched it at home. Kind of a bummer they did not get to hear BOC's "Godzilla" in the soundtrack, but you can't have everything.

It is important to recognize that art, including cinema, frequently employs anachronism to question our views and stimulate reflection. The producers of 'Dirty Little Letters' might be utilizing their medium to showcase the strides we have achieved in diversity and representation. Ultimately, a film's worth is not solely in its adherence to historical fact, but in its power to captivate, amuse, and educate us. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Yes I know that many people aren't interested in watching yet another show about the holocaust, but it is just so happens that We Were The Lucky Ones is a worthy show regardless. As it's based on a true story and it is character based, the viewer experience is to feel the experience of how things happened in a more personal way. When you're living in a historic time and horrible stuff happens, you don't know the bigger picture, it's just happening and you need to respond to it the best way you can, and each person that dealt with it dead or alive mostly dead, was a person that had their own individual experience based on their life circumstances and character. Not just statistics. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find people who re write history with "diverse casting" to be wokeist. I have no (not much) problem with modern characters being diverse except that it often goes over the top...bit like the Google gemini AI woke debacle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Teavee Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) Alcatraz (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1728102/) popped up in the "Recently added TV Shows" on my TV Box & I remember watching some of it but couldn't remember how it ended so set about re-watching from the start. Got to the end & found out why I couldn't remember the story ending, Season 2 got canned so you're left with a lot of unanswered questions... Quite an enjoyable show if you're happy to never find out the full story behind how the convicts disappeared/re-appeared 50 years later 😞 Do Not Watch if you need your TV Shows to have a satisfactory ending Edited April 12 by Mike Teavee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My definition of woke would be political correctness gone mad on gender bending drugs combined with anti "white" racism and a huge splash of hypocrisy. Definitions can change, remember gay used to mean happy. 1 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
