Would you recommend it to others?
I recommend it. Edit: updated link
2036 Origin unknown. It was quite a good movie so, yes, I would recommend it.
Neon genesis evangelion : The end of Evagelion
. . .
Second time watching the whole series + ending, understood things better this time around however still have some questions. Third time will be the charm I am sure of it.
It’s a great storie revolving around the hedgehog dilema, change within ourselfs, and escapism, hitting too close to home at times.
What upfront looks like a freaking cool mecha anime, which it is, hides a narrative so human it gives you chill by how real it is at times. Really recommended the movie + series.
I wouldn’t recommend it to cis people, but maybe to some trans folks.
I watched but did not finish inglorious bastards because we had to take iur kitten to the vet.
However, I watched and finished District 9 and it was unequivically a banger. I can’t reveal too much without spoilers so I will only say this. It primarily takes place in South Africa and the history of apartheid is important to its message.
I also watched Starship Troopers not to long ago and it was a banger too. The history of American imperialism is incredibly important fot this one.
Both of these are very relevant to world events at the moment and watching them now will only do you good
Starship Troopers is an odd duck of a movie. I enjoy it, but I also get why fans of the book tend to hate it.
Basterds was a great movie.
Didn’t even realize it was a book, only knew about the movie through memes. Is it good?
Personally, I love it. I think that he’s probably dead-on with his political philosophy, e.g., people don’t value things that they don’t have to put in some personal effort for. Verhoeven thinks that Heinlein was a fascist, but Heinlein himself was a radical libertarian that was deeply affected by WWII, with a strong distrust of “big government” and any kind of organized religion.
There’s definitely casual racism and genocide in the book–notably the skinnies–and Heinlein is very definitely a product of his time. And it’s probably written for a late teen/early 20s audience. So take this all with a grain of salt.
