28 July 2020
It was painful to watch the first half hour of the film. I paused it and went and read a review on it to see if i will be missing something should i called it quits. I then replayed it again but still made the decision to stop watching it half way throu. It is just unvearable to watch. Two drunks at their worst habing laughs.. Sorry but no!
HyperNormalisation
(2016)
Eye opening
28 July 2020
Starting from 1975, with two shots of Damascus and Newyork, Adam curtis investigates two ways of running the world. The banks were lending a lot of money to politicians in the 1975 but that suddenly stopped. From Banks to politics spanning the globe from Russia,Syria,Lebanon, to Lybia,Iran, the US, and ending with an Arab Spring. We can see how main players in the world were either pawns in a game of chess or fake players to distort perception. Hypernormalization is the term used to describe the attempts to promote a fake image of the world and make it the normal. Wiliam Gibson introduced the term Cyberspace negatively and then the decalration of independance of Cyberspace came along and then computers and the internet make cyberspace invidualist's dream. The film is full of events from protests all over the world and major political events and repercussions of big decisions made by politics. I find it hard to write in a clear manner about what i saw as it is a jumbled mass of complex politics of the old world where reality was still physical to a new system of cyberspace reality influencing events in the real world and a politics driven by shapeshifting and unrecognizable fake reality where the truth become irrelevant and people are parts of the node on a network of ever complicated reality.
Man with a Movie Camera
(1929)
Cool
27 July 2020
The movie is a collection footage from 1929 russia with mysic in background,akin to Samsara. Watching the film, we can see how people dressed in that era, the work,the tech, like the old few cars on the road,the horses, a number of people doing their craft like weaving clothes, standing in line plugging and unplugging wires in a vast mural of receptacles. We can also see major life events like having birth, people marching in droves carrying a dea person, couple doing divorce and marriage papers, people smiling, people on the beach. It is amazing to have a window of time through which you can glimpse at what life used to be at that time, a time that is bo longer and whose people are now long dead. Cool film.

This is probably the worst of movies. So badly made you feel sick. I ruined my experince of Pacific rim. 50 after the nuclear war,wars have ended and now countries do yearly games between giant robots that are controlled by fighters at the helm. The fight scenes are cringe worthy. Bad film
Hardware

Scary
26 July 2020
In order to control reproduction,the goovernment conducted a secret miltary project to create Mark 13, a robot that inject people with drugs thru embedded needles and then murder them. The movie centers about one mark 13 that reassembed itself from the ruins of its dispersed parts in the home of a couple. The music in the movie is pretty cool, the atmosphere is scifi, the robot is not impressive but some jumpscares leveled things out. The girl is a beauty and she is a bad ass so that's a plus. Overall, fun film altho the tech is rudimentary by today's boston dynamics standards.

Two brothers discover a message their father hid fro them until they turn 16 of age. The message is a mere magic wand which can bring back the the father for a full day. When the phonex rock pulverized they had to go on an epic adventure to search for a phoneix diamond and bring back the dad who is been present in his lower half all throughout the film. They bring him back at the end for couple seconds before the sun sets and only the big brother got a chance to talk to him briefly and the younger bro figures that it was his big bro who was pushing him to become the person he has become all his life. Thi movie is so average. No music no soundtrack and almost dull at times.

The gather round in groups and talk about their problems and wuth the help of their fellow convicts and facilitators appointed for thie sake they try to resolve their deep seated problems and come out healed emotionally and with more hope for what is there to come.

Angel's Egg
(1985 Video)
Esoteric stuff
19 July 2020
A girl is seen hiding an egg under her gown and striding through a deserted place where soldiers appear out of nowhere with spikes in hands trying to hunt shadows of large whales gliding smoothly through the city. The girl meets a mysterious man who queries her on what's inside the egg. She accompanies her to some place that seems to be a monastry of sorts,amd there she tells her stories of days past about an ark left behing and a birds gone with the ark?! He then sneaks up on her in her sleep, steals the egg, and breaks it. Upon such sight,she begins to cry. She then falls between two edges down to meet what seems like her mother, and then eggs surface, and her statue with the egg,and a large transparent egg sitiated atop a tree and encapsulated by fibers or something. To be honest,i couldn't quite grasp what was going on. Mysterious egg, a girl protectig it,and a man explaining stuff. The girls hair is impressive tho.

The story of Freddie Murphy, lead singer in Queen, a band of four that he made famous by his incredible creativity and voice. I was surprised to learn that Qeen is behind some famous songs ive heard, like we will,we will... rock you and we are the champions. The guy is extrenely talented but i didn't like the film so much. It was such a pain making it to the end,but i am glad i have learned the story of Queen and Freddie

A team of engineers and technicians led by Selcuk Bayraktar bring to life AKINCI, a fully autonomous aircraft whose maiñ purpose is to protect the country. It is a significant feat of engineering that not more than 3 countries in the world have the tech. Inspiring doc. Hopefulltly we'll see more such tech seeing the light of day from Turkey.

What did i just watch
17 July 2020
So it appears that people in the movie has discovered choking one self to be a form of therapy reverted to whenever life pins you down. This is one of those films that you don't really understand the purpose of, but still leaves you confused. Reminded me of Under the skin. Same vibes
