  • You just need to break the syntax apart and look at it from the LHS and the RHS seperately.

    In layman’s terms: constantine felt boxed in by his social class which left him often at dagger-ends to the operations on his car. Unable to keep up with the constant payments, he defaulted on the loan.

    See? Easy.


  • The UK was shit before Brexit, it was 14 years of austerity policies (read: cut health services, cut benefits, cut social housing, deregulation of services, legalisation of toxic dumping, I can go on…) by a right-wing “fiscally responsible” government who has left the current one with a sizeable financial black hole… that has brought the country to its knees.

    If we had Brexit but still maintained public services, there’s a good chance the country would have been fine.





  • I love Captain D, the way he takes apart a scene in Blender is an art form in itself.

    I guess the question I’m asking is, normally when editing comes into play you can sort of notice it through one way or another. There’s an uncannyness to it that makes it jarring, whereas in Austin Powers I never once clocked on that I was watching the same person. Did they use really sophisticated techniques for this? Was the campiness and comedic tone of the film itself a good distraction from any editing goofs?

    If it was a more sombre film, would I notice it more I wonder?

    Edit: @Aurenkin mentions the ping-pong scene in the 2019 Moon film, which has a more mature tone and the editing there was definitely flawless.
