According to the article Jim was in touch with David Cronenberg the day Lynch passed away and that's so wholesome. The three of them have amazing silver hair lol.

I just found out yesterday that David Lynch has a film school in a middle of nowhere town in my state of Iowa. The stepson is going to be a juror at a competition being held there soon.

Jarmusch is one of the last mohicans when it comes to making pure art films. Paterson is my modern favourite of his. Something about it is so soothing.

I love Paterson a bunch too! It makes a great pairing with Perfect Days.

Being against a group of people that has raped and murder people means I support a genocide? Are you a bit slow?

What's it like being a useful idiot? I wonder if you know that Hezbollah helped Assad kill hundreds of thousands of Syrians? That they are not trusted or supported by the majority of Lebanese people? Hezbollah is quite literally a proxy arm of Iran and no, their goal is not to free Palestinian people, as much as they utilize that excuse to murder fellow Arabs and Muslims. F*** you. People like you would support Jeffrey Epstein if he popped up alive tomorrow and started shitting on Israel.

As someone who is firmly in support of a free and liberated Palestine; they're f****** morons at best, terrorist supporting grifters at worst. The amount of idiot early 20 something's to whom I've had to explain that the IRA and Hezbollah are not blowing up or radicalising civilians for the greater good, it's astounding.

A weird thing I've noticed as a millenial is that there seems to be some general knowledge around the middle east that the rest of us learned and grew up discovering as kids post 9/11. People my age grew up hearing a lot about life over there, and then it seems lots of gen z either doesn't know or doesn't believe it.

It’s not “perspective”. Hezbollah and Hamas have reaped and murdered innocent people. Not sure what the downvotes are for, they have factually done this. Unless you guys support that.
8
Laneyface Mar 26, 2026 +9
Out of Hezbollah, Hamas and Israel, I think that the terrorist group that is objectively the worst happens to be the one carrying out genocide. But that makes me antisemitic I guess?
9
AugieDoggieDank Mar 26, 2026 +9
Are you legitimately comparing terrorist organizations? Are you serious? You’re legitimately comparing groups that have outwardly raped and murdered people, and claim that one is better than the other? Are you insane?
9
Laneyface Mar 26, 2026 +9
Are you saying I shouldn't say that Israel is objectively worse than Hezbollah and Hamas because they r*** and murder on a larger scale than either two groups as well as committing genocide? Believe it or not but people do compare terrorist groups to each other. That's how we learn! Your pearl clutching over me doing so is pathetic.

AugieDoggieDank Mar 26, 2026
Saying that one evil terrorist group is better than another is like saying Ted Bundy is better than Jeffery Dahmer
0
Laneyface Mar 26, 2026 +3
I would say its more like comparing Bundy, Dahmer and Luis Garavito. They are, all three, awful, evil people. But Garavito killed at least 138 children so I think he is objectively worse than the other two. Just because I said one is definitely worse than the others doesn't make me an apologist for them. "Critical thinking isn't difficult, guys!"

yes, you are explicitly antisemetic. it just doesn't bother you the same way an openly racist person isn't offended when they are called racist. you are owning it and proud of it

Laneyface Mar 26, 2026 +6
Do explain to me what exactly it is I said that is antisemitic.

JoJoIsBestAnimeManga Mar 26, 2026 -1
The explanation has already been given to you in these replies. If you need anyone else to explain the obvious in even simpler terms than the education system of whatever country you're from failed you long ago.

Pyriel Mar 26, 2026 +2
As have Israel, but on a significantly larger scale.
2
AugieDoggieDank Mar 26, 2026 +7
The Israeli army have, not the civilians. And I’m not sure what the point of comparing is. Either way, kneecap supports a group that has raped and killed innocent people. But sure, let’s call them “badass”.
7
Laneyface Mar 26, 2026 +13
And what? Israel is only killing Hamas members? They're not indiscriminately killing innocents? Every single thing you accuse Hamas and Hezbollah of have been committed to a much larger degree by Israel.
13
AugieDoggieDank Mar 26, 2026 +4
I literally just said the Israeli army is doing this as well. Are you listening? But that doesn’t make Hamas any better. Critical thinking isn’t difficult, guys.

Pyriel Mar 26, 2026 +1
So are you claiming Hamas aren't the "Palestinian authority", that they are civilians? What exactly are you claiming here?

poboy212 Mar 26, 2026 +3
At least own it instead of hiding behind “anti-Zionism”. They openly support groups whose mission is kill all the Jews around the world. They haven’t denied this.

Laneyface Mar 26, 2026 +12
Israeli Zionists literally teach school kids to hate Arabs and that they will be destroyed by Israel so they can settle in their lands. They are no better than Hamas, or Hezbollah or any other religious fundamentalist terrorist group active today. The major difference is that currently only one of those groups are committing a f****** genocide. Keep on crying that all opposition or pushback against Israel or Zionism is antisemitic. This pathetic attempt to scare people away from saying the truth is losing its effectivness. Keep calling me or alluding that I am antisemitic all you want. It doesn't bother me coming from a genocide apologist. I know well enough who I am, and I know that I have never, nor will ever hold bigoted views against any race, religion or nationality, especially Jews, even if a nation who spuriously claim to represent all Jews across the world shamelessly carry out Genocide.

>Israeli Zionists literally teach school kids to hate Arabs and that they will be destroyed by Israel so they can settle in their lands. This is not a widespread lesson plan... it's taught in super religious right wing settler communities. Whatever (very horrifying) videos you've seen of these kids do not represent common practice. This is not to say that there isn't a general negative sentiment towards surrounding countries and Palestinians, but please don't push the idea that this is commonplace. If you have a problem with kids being taught that (I do!) then you should also have a problem with Palestinian kids being taught by a Mickey Mouse knock-off named Farfour that martyring themselves for Palestine is the greatest thing they can do.

Laneyface Mar 26, 2026 +1
I do take issue with that actually. I just don't think it's grounds for illigealy occupying another country's territory and displacing the families that live there, or y'know... GENOCIDE!

I'm no supporter of Hezbollah or Hamas but I think out of the three religious fundamentalist supremacist terrorist groups Israel is the worst of the three.

Music scenes are full of people shaping their identity on purpose. That doesn’t make it fake, it’s part of the art, the film includes actual true things that happened to them, so saying they aren’t organic or just spawned out of nowhere like Pokémon is dumb

even if i was a bot it wouldn't change the objective fact that kneecap makes shite music for edgelords and you have terrible taste. They just did a private concert in Cuba where they knocked out the power grid for thousands. Thousands are suffering and some people in the hospitals probably died so those morons could do a shitty private concert for the rich in an impoverished country.

Naw Kneecaps sucks d*** lmao their music is horrible. Agree with their politics all you like, but you at least have to be honest that their music is a disgrace to hip hop. F****** Drake of all people makes better music, and that dude hasn't made a good song in a LOOONG time.

How can a director look so interesting, yet make such bland, undramatic films?
-36
bfsfan101 Mar 26, 2026 +3
Undramatic isn’t necessarily a bad description as his films are more about mood and people in places. But bland is a weird description of a famous auteur whose films are always completely distinctive to his look and style.
