So it's a proxy war between China and the EU, with the US potentially sitting out?

That kind if sucks, but I guess it's good to know what's happening.

Makes me think that China had a hand in securing North Korean men and materiel for Putin.

What an inauspicious birthday for America. I wonder what our 250th will bring...

Have you watched The Man in the High Castle by any chance?





I haven't I just know it's a nazi America scenario, which I find apropos

It was very dull.

Dude, it's not a competition. I was just sharing that I'm looking forward to seeing two of my favorite movies on the big screen this weekend; one of them (Barry Lyndon) for the first time - which I'm really looking forward to, seeing as how the movie composes its scenes in the manner of period paintings.

If you go by subscription, even if it's 38 € per month, then it is indeed cheaper and you can use your digitalised Pathé /Cinépass card in all Pathé cinemas in France, plus most, not all, arthouses in  Paris.
