Finally got around to watching Belfast. Solid film. Definitely deserved the recognition it got.

I don’t know if For All Mankind is on people’s radar outside the United States, but I’ve found it to be a throughly enjoyable series. Third season started a bit slow for me, but there were some great moments and reveals towards the end of the season.

very much on top of the list of the Italian subscribers to Apple TV+ (the problem is that there are very few subscribers to that, here 98% of people with a paid subscription are stuck on the big 3: Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and/or Sky Italia...even Disney+ has a lot less subscribers than expected)...

Apple TV+ isn't huge here neither, except for...you know, the typical Apple users with the need to have everything Apple in their life :p 

 

Spoiler

Including the little box to get Apple TV on your not super modern TV, which is highly annoying because it's often giving troubles and bugs and whatnot. Luckily I have a Chromecast nowadays which does in fact work superbly :p

actually, the Apple TV is the only apple product I have...and I'll never regret spending quite a lot of money to get it...the picture quality is way better than all the other devices I've tried...

by the way, I also have a Chromecast integrated in my TV, so, I'm OK with any app in the world...:lol:

So I’d only seen the train crash scene from Super 8 on YouTube, but saw the film was available on HBO MAX recently. I finally watched the whole film, and I thought it was a great love letter to 70s/80s extraterrestrial/paranormal films. I don’t remember it releasing in 2011, but apparently it did moderately well. I’m surprised it didn’t get some more critical nods. Glad the kids got some awards though. They really carried that film.

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
