Oooh, I didn’t even know it had a sequel!
I wouldn’t say it flirts with the supernatural as much as it’s with one foot into weird fiction, which is where cosmic horror comes from.

Not so fun fact: Trump is actually a fan of the way China handled that. Here’s the quote:
“Then they were vicious, they were horrible, but they put it down with strength.That shows you the power of strength. Our country is right now perceived as weak… as being spit on by the rest of the world.”
I mean there is a a terrible TV adaptation starring Iceman and Lana Lang as well as a beautiful but boring Ghibli movie, but I agree that Earthsea is amazing.
Blindsight is such a great novel. It has not one, not two but three great sci-fi concepts rolled into one book.
One is artificial intelligence (the ship’s captain is an AI), the second is alien life so vastly different it appears incomprehensible to human minds. And last but not least, and the most wild, vampires as a evolutionary branch of humanity that died out and has been recreated in the future.
Skipper for steamship companies on the Danube.
Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftskapitän. Actual word for an actual job that existed until 1991. Welcome to German.
Preposterous. You should get your head czeched.
The german term for horse shit is “horse apples”, Pferdeäpfel. Proof that horses are really potatoes.
No, of course not. But it’s funny how he openly admits to his ignorance. He still gives a great performance and was obviously very well liked by the rest of the cast.
The ultra rich are fucking weird in general. Too much money warps your soul quicker than the One Ring.
Well, the mother also liquifies her own innards and regurgitates them to feed her young, dying in the process so there’s that.
He’s been known to write inappropriate texts to underage girls for a while now, this is likely just the tip of the yuck-berg.
Yeah, it’s pretty great. Only movie that I had to rewatch immediately after the first time.
Triangle looks like a generic “slasher on a ship” horror movie at first, but is actually a lot more twisted and clever than that. >!It’s actually about a time loop.!<
Although the interviews with the cast are hilarious just because Hugh Grant doesn’t have a single clue about DnD but also couldn’t give a single fuck about it.
Or a serial killer.
His kid is nothing but a prop to him. And a human meat shield against Luigis.
Also, don’t eat their food! As in, don’t trust their recipes.
I mean he doesn’t even need to have Alzheimer’s. He’s pushing 80 and is completely intellectually incurious, he abhors reading and only watches Fox all day long. That alone could have rotted his brain at this point.
