    Brahman 17 August 2024 20:04 to post You have to pay for everything

    Beyond its surface narrative, “Angel Heart” can be interpreted as an allegory for the spiritual journey of an individual, revealing yet another layer of meaning.
    In this context, Harry Angel’s initial state represents a person unaware of their spiritual nature. The search for Johnny Favorite symbolizes the process of delving into one’s own soul. As Harry’s investigation deepens, it mirrors how turning one’s attention inward can uncover hidden, often unsavory aspects of one’s psyche.

    This interpretation presents the film as a cautionary tale for spiritual seekers. It suggests that confronting one’s inner demons requires substantial mental fortitude and willpower. Without these qualities, one risks being overwhelmed by uncovered vices and passions, much like Harry is ultimately consumed by his own dark nature.

    The film’s narrative echoes the experiences of hermits and ascetics who retreated to mountains and deserts for spiritual practices. While some found enlightenment, others were driven to madness, illustrating that not everyone can successfully navigate this challenging path.

    “Angel Heart” thus warns that embarking on a journey of self-discovery should not be taken lightly. It implies that one should only open this metaphorical Pandora’s box when sufficiently prepared to face the challenges that arise and committed to changing oneself. Otherwise, this path may prove insurmountable and potentially destructive.

    This additional layer of meaning elevates “Angel Heart” from a supernatural thriller to a profound exploration of the human psyche and the perils and necessities of spiritual growth, reminding us that true self-knowledge comes at a price and requires strength of character to confront and overcome the darker aspects of our nature.

    Not all secrets need to be revealed.

    It is possible to teach AI to write without structure and with errors. But whether the essence will be conveyed better in such a form is a big question.

    Brahman 15 August 2024 19:55 to post Terminator: Dark Fate - Defiance

    I decided to play Terminator 3: Dark Fate. Of course, I chose the maximum difficulty – Realism. The tutorial missions went relatively well, though I had to sweat a bit to ensure at least some of my squad survived and progressed to the next missions. The game works like this: you start with certain squads, and some of them carry over to the next mission. They gain experience and unlock new skills. In different missions, you can recruit new squads. There are also city outposts where you can purchase personnel and equipment. You can also loot vehicles during missions: cars, Humvees, and even tanks.

    However, there’s a catch: the larger your squad, the more resources it consumes, and resources are limited. This presents a dilemma: what to sell and what to keep and develop. Resources are always scarce, so you need to invest in the most effective units and upgrade them. Vehicles and tanks can also be upgraded with armor, weapons, and engine modifications.

    The game feels like a Mad Max-style survival experience, with a convoy of vehicles racing through the desert: small maneuverable cars, APCs, makeshift artillery on trailers, and trucks carrying supplies and fuel. There can also be separate transport trucks. The entire team is self-sufficient; if you run out of fuel and a tank stops, it’s essentially lost and won’t make it to the next mission.

    There’s a wide variety of units: assault troops, snipers, special forces, etc. You need to assemble your team to have several self-sufficient groups that can hold various points on the map, as missions often require controlling multiple locations.

    When I started the main missions after the tutorial, I really struggled. Maps that were supposed to take an hour ended up taking 10 hours to complete. Even then, victory wasn’t guaranteed. I reached the cartel city, where enemy Humvees with artillery prevented me from approaching. I managed to defeat them with tremendous effort, but then decided to go back two missions to acquire my own artillery. I replayed those missions, bought artillery, and dismantled the Humvees.

    Eventually, I completed the game. Even towards the end, I was still learning new things. Such hardcore games are interesting because you can’t beat them on the first try. I think this game is underappreciated by the gaming community due to its specific gameplay – strategy games aren’t very popular nowadays because they require thinking, which many modern gamers find unappealing. Nevertheless, the game turned out to be very successful and provides a unique gaming experience not found in other titles.

    Good sh*t. Check out the anime “Wolf’s Rain” for a similar vibe. (The ending credits song of Felidae reminded me of it.)

    mypasswordispassword 30 December 2024 15:36 to post The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim: Reactionary Review: My Honest Thoughts

    Video review with a contrarian (positive) recommendation. Argent claims
    that the movie isn’t woke, and the arguments show that it isn’t
    *explicitly*. Argents threshold for wokeness seems pretty tolerant of
    it, but his points stand.

    Lots of spoilers in the review, Argent goes through pretty much the entire plot.

    Yeah, perhaps. The child is going through a crisis due to the death of his mother and the move to a new place with his father’s new wife. He is not accepting her, and he’s facing trouble at his new school. In his troubled imagination this story plays out, in which he accepts a new mother, decides to take responsibility for his own
    life. And then, the painful chapter comes to an end.

    In the 1973 theatrical production (https://zeitgeistreviews.com/movies/selo-stepanchikovo-i-yego-obitateli), the director gave free rein to his imagination: Foma appears as a sage, sternly denouncing egoism and ignorance, and even the invited nephew Seryozha succumbs to his charms.

    Old geezer music forum? Sounds great. I want to have music forums here. I think starting by scraping Discogs.com, Last.FM, & RateYourMusic.com would be a good start. But gotta improve the existing issues and pillars of the site first. For example, you still can’t write reviews on truly underground things unless you first make an IMDb page. There are a lot of good projects like the stuff Emily Youcis, Sam Hyde, and all the folks associated with the White Art Collective made that aren’t supported here because of that. And the whole point of ZR is not to simply live in the shadow of (((Hollywood))) and find hidden gems but to support independent art from /ourguys/ as well. Same goes for our music scene. I find a lot of great music and then forget what they’re called. Like this YouTube channel EuropeanUnity565. It’s mainly RAC from various countries but there’s also exploratory rap, metalcore, synth indie, etc. 

    European Unity 565
    https://www.bitchute.com/channel/xnWIemZmTp8h

    Les Brigandes – Democracy
    https://www.bitchute.com/video/bJkYGHp20FJW
     
    Kroc Blanc – Nazi
    https://www.bitchute.com/video/q0UMYuew8cZo

    Komplott – Europa
    https://www.bitchute.com/video/1SIYEBDZG6A2
     
    14 Sacred Words – A Declaration Of War
    https://www.bitchute.com/video/lhYbctB91ny3
     

    I could go on and on. But yeah, I really wanna’ pick up the torch where EuropeanUnity565 and WhiteArtCollective took off. We need to support the vanguards! But allow any genre and any race. I think it becomes a circle jerk purity spiral and you limit yourself to a lot of good stuff out there. Like, https://88nsm.com/ is a great resource and they have many genres. But it’s all only about nazi stuff. I think you pigeon hole yourself and that’s not conducive to a movement growing and art needs to be able to experiment freely. So ZR’s forum would also allow interpretations of classics like:

    Steve Windwood – Higher Love (Murdoch Murdoch)
    https://www.bitchute.com/video/2fMCNUfPP0k
     
    Or to be able to appreciate other races art without being called a cuck. You said you like progrock? What about mathrock? Go figure, Asians are good at math(rock) too:

    LITE – Bond 
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlWiRjIcjOk

    Rega – Barrel Roll
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcuhwhrCtEc

    tricot – POOL
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZjTXh_zaXc

    Damn, I’m ranting. Clearly this site needs a music forum and music playlist option. But before that, we’ll work on other requested features… Anywho welcome back.

    there’s overt homoeroticism daubed over the entire movie, how is that not woke? every sex joke has to be about guy-on-guy. the joke where the desk jockey has a crush on deadpool it’s a guy. when deadpool makes jokes to the soldiers about raping him they’re guys. the single case where it’s not a guy, it’s a black woman. otherwise heterosexual attraction is verboten. like yeah compared to deadpool 2 with the horrid dykes in it, it’s far less woke. but don’t try and make out that it has no woke in it.

    This movie is paced terribly and Fraser’s performance is board-stiff; Silverstone is grating and b**chy. Yet somehow, once it gets going, the story resonates deeply with the modern-fatigued viewer. It’s pretty telling that Christopher Walken first ventures out into the ‘post-apocalyptic’ world and encounters an aggressive tranny prostitute. Back then I guess that would have been considered hilariously absurd. Back then it would have.
