The order of this list is highly debatable but this is a literal top 100 list. It might be easier to start with two critics top 10 lists here . Most big streaming sites like HBO are highlighting the movies they run that are up for awards but you might be able to find some on free sites like kanopy , although several are still in theaters.

Yeah I saw someone on Bluesky say that there should be a crossover with the Chair Company and it did seem to be heading in that direction a little. I liked how it completely changed the tone of the show and still remained funny and suspenseful as you didn’t know what to expect. Rhea Seahorn managed to make it as compelling as possible. Vince Gilligan has consistently shown us that when things slow down it means we’re bulding towards something. Everyone seems to have the same assumption about what she saw in the final shot so I can only assume it’s NOT that.

Since you like Psycho, I’d recommend Peeping Tom by Michael Powell or several movies by Mario Bava from the era like The Girl Who Knew Too Much and Blood and Black Lace. Eyes Without a Face is also Great. Also Rosemary’s Baby and Repulsion by Polanski. For Japanese Films you should check out Yojimbo, Sword of Doom, and 2 by Seijun Suzuki ; Branded to Kill and Tokyo Drifter. Also check out Dr. Strangelove by Kubrick and if you like New Hollywood westerns , etc Bonnie and Clyde and The Wild Bunch are requisites. French New Wave stuff is important so maybe Breathless and Band of Outsiders and of course Melville’s “Le Samourai.” Spaghetti Westerns were very influential and Leone’s Man With No Name Trilogy ( A Fistful of Dollars, For a few Dollars More, The Good the Band and the Ugly ) and Once Upon A time in The West are a good starting point. There are so many but those are a few recommendations that might send you down further rabbit holes.

They’re revolting because it already has and they haven’t been given a voice https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/9/8/six-killed-in-nepal-amid-gen-z-protests-after-social-media-ban-all-to-know

Not at all. They’re demanding anti-corruption, jobs, healthcare, etc . Another article with some background

If the cat and the Raccoon that ran onto the field a while back joined a team, they would be unstoppable.

One thing I can agree, the censorship and repression has nothing to do with China. The article erroneously uses the term “Semitic” btw and many of the students I was referring to are Jewish. This says nothing new. Just opinions, which are not facts. It’s no conspiracty theory that Meta’s board has many former Israeli intelligence agents on it since you’ve mentioned them. Perhaps you should do a bit more research. And so on.

It’s behind a paywall so I can’t read it. I never said “the Jews” were taking it away. I mentioned one group that is a known lobbiest group with examples. I love Jewish people and the ADL and does not speak for all of them in any way. This is the “weaponization” I’m referring to . You are free to disagree but it’s just lazy logic to call it a “conspiracy theory” just because you do.

He and others in the ADL weaponized accusations of antisemitism to shut down pro Palestine speech as much as they possibly could. I live a town away from Harvard University and he was seen meeting with Harvard administration often and preceding every act of repression against student activists including immediately before they shut down their encampment and prevented student activists from graduating instead of listening to them.

When a lobbiest says they want a platform shut down and then it eventually gets shut down it’s hard for me to dismiss that as mere coincidence. Given their influence on platforms like Meta, who wants to avoid an FTC investigation, I’m just not surprised. Any corporate platform’s primary goal is profit.

It’s no secret that Jonathan Greenblatt of the ADL was recorded and heard by many saying “We don’t have a left / right problem. We have a young / old problem. We have a TikTok problem” It’s pretty clear that TikTok finally caved in to the ADL’s demands, just like other centralized social media companies.

I hear you. That regional history must have been part of Butler’s inspiration or at least influenced it. I’m not as familiar with the geography of the area as I live in the Northeast so I appreciate your perspective. It seems as though many people saw this as inevitable and it’s a tragic wake up call for others who ignored history. Thanks for sharing the link.

Not just “a neighborhod” but several including predominently black neighborhoods as the article points out. This is far from a natural disaster and many are actively trying to claim it is. Indigenous peoples performed controlled burns that prevented this prior to colonization. The article is very brief but points this out. It’s an entire ecosystem impacted not just celebrities and Octavia Butler made some predictions that were frighteningly astute without trying to say that we are doomed to repeat this.

Great question! If you look in the sidebar of this very community and its larger instance you will find that our admins have placed helpful links to answer exactly that question. You can find the articles “What is Solarpunk?” and “A Solarpunk Manifesto” on our wiki

Thank you for a reading the article and responding with substance from it that considers what it says instead of being dismissive. These projects are far from perfect.

They can argue against the employer’s claim and prove they weren’t fired for cause. My former employer lied to unemployment and and it worked in my favor. Either way they can appeal a decision and should start consulting attorneys immediately.

As a moderator of this community I need to remind you that non-constructive personal criticisms like this are inappropriate and go against the ethics and guidelines of this instance, let alone Lemmy. Honestly.

Thanks for clarifying that. That publication can be prone to clickbait style headlines it seems but they also publish some good information overall and I thought it was worth noting

Yeah, true in many cases. The post was about Cameron so that’s the only director I’m addressing at the moment but the industry is definitely filled with people using their “art” to excuse their bad and often abusive behavior like you said. There’s a lot of very concentrated power to abuse.

Cameron has an awful reputation for how he treats people on set and you really see it start to come out here pretty quickly . He’s hostile and dismissive the moment any criticism is mentioned whether it be from Roland Emerich when he tells the reporter to “move on”, proving the “overbearing” criticism right, or that anyone who criticizes his transfers as needing to “move out of mom’s basement”. His films are often awe-inspring but he’s been called “a nightmare to work with” and “autocratic” on set.

Cool! It would be nice to hear directly from them about their research and how this instance fits into it but at least we have the their results and this interview to give an overall perspective.
