Finally got around to Quo Vadis, Aida? (missed my chance at the cinema, now they are closed).

 

The film getting snubbed at Oscars is oddly apt. Should have been one win, or just two nominations at the very least.

Show you how new stuff doesn't hold any value at all. We've gone through another classic that has a reboot that doesn't actually need a reboot. I'd be amazed if the new Friends last beyond  two seasons. That show belonged in the 90s. I wonder how much political corectness will they stuff in there in 2021? Phoebe working as a masseusse? Not funny anymore. Chandler's father being a drag queen? Not funny anymore.

It's a one-time thing. Not really a new episode or anything. Just a reunion with possibly some funny stuff going on.

It's just a reunion special (for now) 

 

I agree on the rest. They have ruined enough classic shows with their pointless reboots, even though there are over 600 scripted shows being produced every year only in America. And how many of them will be remembered and cherished after 30 years? And the comedy genre has been dead for 10 years. No wonder the whole world is still watching sitcoms from the 80s, 90s till 2007-08.

Comedy genre could make laugh out of everybody and that was their obvious core. Now we live in an era when anyone gets offended by anything so comedy just can't walk the tightrope at all hence it's more or less dead. Political corectness has killed the genre for sure.

Started watching Archer a while back, season 6 now (meaning I'm halfway at the moment). I've liked a lot of comedies and found them funny and such, but not often does a show actually make me literally laugh (instead of laughing on the 'inside'), like Archer absolutely does :lol:

It's surely a great show. Sadly the later seasons aren't quite as good (haven't watched the latest season yet)

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
