Quote from: Sheilbh on Today at 09:01:29 AMQuote from: celedhring on Today at 02:48:01 AMWent to see Pillion, the story of a toxic BDSM gay relationship starring Alexander Skarsgard and Harry Melling (of Harry Potter semi-fame). It is weirdly quite wholesome. Liked it quite a bit.I have slightly mixed feelings. On its own I think it's pretty good and quite enjoyed it.
But it's an adaptation of Adam Mars-Jones' Box Hill which is a really good novel and very much not got much (if any comedy). It's a far darker more introspective piece. So enjoyed it as a film on its own but I think it did lose something in going in a lighter, more comic and maybe more wholesome direction.
Separately as a Brit I went in expecting and anticipating disappointment, but SNL UK has been pretty good (based on the sketches uploaded to YouTube). Seems to be getting good reviews too and actually really good viewership figures for Sky. Hope it slightly kickstarts a re-evaluation by the other broadcasters on whether we really need infinity panel shows with the same 30 comedians - or perhaps even if they maybe need to re-fresh their Saturday night broadcasts which have basically been unchanged for twenty years

I am not playing a whole game or reading a book translated by AI.I totally agree (it's why I'm also very militant on copyright as the IP that protects human creativity).
