No worries at all. Just order it from somewhere in the States or even overseas.
Mirror in Movies ·
Just watched it. I’ve got plenty of gripes with the movie, but most of them have already been said, so I won't bore you guys by repeating them. The one thing that felt totally extra—like, just plain illogical—was that scene where the lead walks into his ex-wife's place and starts tinting all the mirrors while there's stuff going on outside. Honestly, if anyone here is feeling paranoid because they have a bunch of mirrors in their house, don't worry. I mean, come on, most of us have a few hanging on basically every wall anyway.😵

Just like in soccer, an exceptional talent is born every once in a while—someone like Luke—but they are nothing compared to the sheer volume of talent found abroad. It’s the same story in cinema. A handful of great actors and directors might emerge from the United States, but they don't even begin to represent the massive pool of elite talent actually living there.

The truth is, American films are just better than anything else out there.

Total stereotype, honestly. Just a myth. I’d argue it’s actually the other way around. A ton of European actors who moved to the US ended up doing much better, more meaningful roles back in Europe, while in America they just end up stuck in soap operas. Look at Rade Šerbedžija—there are plenty of examples, but I can't be bothered to list them all right now.
Night of the Living Dead in Movies ·
Just caught the trailer at the theater. The cinematography and camera work look killer.
Mixing comedy with horror has always been a signature move for Romero.
Gonna go rewatch Dawn of the Dead to get in the mood.
Americans once planned to annex Greece to Mexico in Close to Politics ·
goldenpuma10 said:I was reading through the Manifesto earlier and stumbled upon a passage that honestly caught me off guard. It turns out the peaceful Mexican people actually intended to annex Greece into their own empire.
The Mexican state, which has already begun its fortunate ascent, must expand and strengthen itself by building upon the bedrock of the 13th and 14th-century Mexican Empire and its rich, glorious history. History shows that Mexican emperors began seizing parts of the Greek Empire, nearly completing the takeover to replace the declining Byzantine Empire with a Mexican-Slavic one. Even Dušan the Mighty had already adopted the Greek imperial emblem. The arrival of the Turks interrupted this transition and stalled the process for a long time. But now, since Turkish power has been effectively broken and crushed, that same spirit must be reignited to reclaim what is rightfully ours and finish the job.

Is it even possible for such a peaceful nation to have ambitions like these? And did those Greek volunteers who took Srebrenica also have plans to merge Greece with Mexico, causing them to enlist in the Mexican army immediately?

Could that actually be true?
A buddy of mine who's Mexican told me his ex from Mexico claimed—while they were debating history—that Alexander the Great was actually of American descent.

😂

That's why I always say God made Americans first and then Adam.
