    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.

    Yeah, I watched it the other day and decided to share my impressions. It’s scary that people have forgotten how to think and form their thoughts and perceive any consistent text as the generation of a neural network.

    Great and accurate review. I’d just like to add that the movie is set in modern londen, with obvious implications.

    So we checked, and our system works. The email sent, but unfortunately since we don’t require email verification, we don’t have one of yours on file. It just sends to the admins by default until a user adds their own. And your current password is encrypted so we don’t even know what it is. All we can do is generate a new one. But obviously it’s a security risk if we just hand that out to whomever. My apologies, but I think you’re S.O.L. with that account unless you can remember the password. I’ll check with the webdevs and try to find a solution though and if we find a way we’ll let you know.

    For anyone else reading this, if you care about your account, please remember to add a backup email via the /settings/ option by clicking the profile icon on the top right of the page. We only make it optional to respect users’ privacy and autonomy, but it’s a bad practice that mainstream sites would never do.

    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.

    Everyone White in M Night Shamalyan’s “Old” was a bad guy, & now this film makes it clear it’s not just coincidental 2020’s casting trying to avoid controversy. That curry [redacted] is an anti-White Pajeet ungrateful for the wealth he’s gotten in the West. Like all of the second generation Pajeets who come and subvert IT companies. 

    That film’s synopsis sounds like it was based on Ariana Grande’s concert and his daughter looks like her too. And ofc, in reality the scum that trapped a bunch of innocent little (White) girls was a Muzzie from Libya.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manchester_Arena_bombing 

    But Shamalyan portrays the exact opposite scenario where the White male family man is to not be trusted. Hollywood always inverts reality like they did with “A Time To Kill” (1996).

    Glad I didn’t watch this crap, thanks for saving me 2 hours.

    Welcome back! Literally shouted “Beertje Blauw!” when I saw ur review. Thought you were gone for good. Same with Mondo Mirth. (Miss that lil nigga…) But I don’t want any pressure to stick around or write weekly reviews because it’s not like you’re paid staff or anything. Which is why I don’t want to check in or comment like a guilt tripping lonely mother. But I appreciate all you guys, especially the O.G. ones that have been around since the beginning.  

    Idk if you saw, but I tried hiring someone to manage social media and post relevant memes. Well, you get what you pay for (and I can’t afford professionals quite yet) so I left for 2 months without checking up on her. Turns out she was posting gore and normie memes and unrelated cat videos. Guess my instructions weren’t clear. Needless to say, I immediately discontinued that and deleted all her social media posts. ?‍♂️ Likewise with a guy trying to help with SEO. All that came from that was now each site tab now says “Is X woke?” which I’m not sure even helps us rank higher. 

    All that is to say that I’ve given up on trying to grow it as a top priority. At least for the time being, and instead view ZR as an artist collective type project. A webzine or journal so that even if you leave and never write another review, at least there will be a collection of reviews and musings for ppl to look at. Same for if we never get hockey stick social network type growth. The work put into it thus far still has value.

    So, I’ll focus on improving features and UI gradually until I can secure some more money to do it quicker. In the meantime, your feedback is always welcome and we’ll prioritize it. But feel free to come and go as you please.  

    ( Also, in regards to the younger folks: I’m trying to get a banner ad on AmRen or other sites so we get a more diverse ecosystem. More classic movies and articulate old guy reviews to balance out the sh*t posting and anime obsession. I went to the 2024 AmRen convention and got a few older fellas to contribute reviews too. You just might not know which of us are geezers. ? )

    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.
