In a world that proclaims victory in the midst of defeat, how do we locate the gaps where new realities form?

HOUDINI Collective members, writer MMF (Marfa, TX) and situationist artist SHEM SHELLEY (London, UK) collaborate on a zine about the process, the movement, and the dream of it all.

Drawing from Derrida, Marx, and the classical political economists, this 8-page piece asks us to stop waiting for the messiah and start facing the specters that are already here. "How the Night Moves" is a meditation on the ghosts we exclude from our "end of history," and the socialist promise of returning the human essence to itself.

8 pages, PDF, with a web version releasing March 27th exclusive on HOUDINImagazine.com

Just read through the Judge Dredd spinoff comic Fall of Deadworld, or at least what's available now. It's not a bad apocalypse adventure story, and the art is really good at being creepy and unsettling.

I like the doodles, anons.

Used to love to draw but my depression has sapped me of any enthusiasm for it. Maybe one day I'll get it back.

>>47334
As someone in a similar situation you're much better off just putting pen to paper than waiting for enthusiasm to somehow return.

Terrible film making fun of marxism, the initial concept was interesting, but they spent all of the film's time to revolve around 5-6 annoying main characters rather than environment. They had a "marxist world" eternity sold out (eternities are somehow scarce?) and all these other obnoxious ones that were being advertised, but it never really explained itself, instead it just focuses on one meaningless relationship to characters I could not care less about. The MC was asking the right questions in the beggining but then just gave up and made it all about his wife. WHY?
The ending was just a random "happily ever after" ending, I would've preferred if the wife got sent to the void for being so indecisive. The entire "afterlife" lobby or system is not very precise and appears to be operated entirely by people. They never bothered to explain how any of that works, just completely ignored this new concept the movie brought and revolves around.

In short what they presented was:
You die, you are in a giant waiting lobby, you get to choose your own eternity which is a world in which you spend eternal existence in but you only get to choose once, if you choose one and then try to get out or switch they will try to catch you and if they catch you they send you to an eternal void, eternities are scarce and some eternities are "sold out" or "defunct" because they became full or are "outdated" (i.e. they mentioned racist eternities and a "marxist world eternity" was also shown to be "sold out"), the MC's wife somehow manages to switch eternities without being caught and we're left to assume she lives forever in the new eternity, some people don't choose so they have to stay in the lobby and do jobs. NOTHING ELSE IS ELABORATED. They didn't give a fuck to even play with this concept a bit, they made it all about a cuckhold husband, a wife and her former husband. They had this insane concept and turned it into the cheesiest lamest romance story.

if you have an afterlife with all this potential why would anyone choose to limit themselves to just one shallow theme park style world? Literally what is the point of that, and who would ever design it that way?

This whole genre of modern magical realism annoys me because it treats all these foibles of 20th century capitalism like they are natural laws of the universe and not something made up by a specific human society. The Backrooms is probably the most distilled version of that: you find a space between spaces, somewhere outside of normal reality, but it just looks like bland hallways. Not because of some weird eldritch entity has warped human-made architecture, but because architecture is treated as natural. Eternity apparently does this too, treating advertising and the tourism industry as something apart from society, more real and essential than gravity.

>Severance seems highly derivative of Squid Game
I don't think that at all. I don't know which parts you think are the same even.

Yeah the film kinda sucked, I thought it was going in the direction of all three of them sharing an entirety as a polycule together as all 3 and was disappointed when it cucked out and gave us the boring predictable ending

Unrelated but the first half of Paint Your Wagon is pretty based

What the fuck was this image, I can't remember.

Because fascists are notorious for employing chameleon tactics and appropriating the trendy ideological buzzwords of the era to make their nonsense seem valid and like a genuine ethos, e.g. "libertarianism" in the US, "national socialism" in Germany, "communism" in China, etc. But really it's all just smoke and mirrors, what these people truly are are just nihilists who don't believe in anything at all.

If WB is going to be sold to some megacorporation, I would have preferred Netflix. Lesser of two evils.

Would theaters have died off because of the Netflix/WB deal? I don't know and I don't care.

WB has been acting retarded for years, like they had some insider intentionally ruining things to lower the price to buy them. Consolidation is inevitable under capitalism though.

probably bad but everything sucks and we're all gonna die so really it's fine

from a communist pov its obviously irrelevant. from a personal pov it fucking sucks especially when this is happening right as paramount is starting to produce "anti-woke" films lol

Eventually it will all be merged into one unified megacorporation that spoonfeeds you all the watered down corporate slop you can gobble up like the mindless fucking pigs that you are.

Be me try
>Try to build upper body for years
>Do push ups and bench and light cardio and have no results
>Do start lifting and focusing on pull muscle groups more
>Noticeable result in days
>Leaner tighter chest and slowly shrinking gut too
What gives? Are pull exercises and lifting just superior? Is something wrong with me or are push ups/benching a meme?

>>46999
Lifting is superior to calisthenics and cardio yes, there's a reason people lift.

How do I go from skinny-fat to fit-but-thin? I don't wanna get swole

>>46852
>you should spread put your meals over the course of day to maximalise musle growth?
That's a thing for pro body builders. Past a certain point of swoleness your muscles will start to break down if you go for a few hours without food. This isn't even really an issue if you are still mega swole but not extremely low body fat. For anybody but pro BB this isn't really that useful for retaining/building mass though *technically* I think spreading meals out more is generally good for you (but so is intermittent fasting). For the average person trying to maximize gains you probably get better results by eating (more) around the time you train.

>>46999
Lifting is better for muscle growth than calisthenics because you can train with higher weight, but calisthenics are fine if your goal is to do cardio/endurance strength. As for pulling vs pushing and losing weight you probably notice a tighter chest because of less body fat. Pulling won't make your pecs bigger, but you will have more of your chest shaped by pecs if you lose body fat there.

>>47000
>Lifting is superior to calisthenics and cardio yes
None is superior to the others in general, they all do different things and ideally people would combine them all. Lifting weight maximizes your ability to gain muscle and raw strength. Calisthenics is good for mobility, stability, and some light cardio and supporting strength. Cardio is cardio - it's good for your cardiovascular system and is often neglected because the results aren't visible.

>>47302
Nobody ever accidentally put on "too much" muscle mass. Just do some kind of training regularly, whatever you find appealing enough to do consistently. The only things you need to avoid are caloric surplus and progressive overload. Weight loss is more a diet thing than a training one.

i am not watching that new sappy chloe zhao or the new mental health pixar slop. let alone all the glorified student films in the live action short film category. i don't understand why dedicated cinephiles feel compelled to do a more thorough investigation of the nominees than the actual members of the academy

The new 28 Years Later rocks, it improves the first movie

what did y'all think of Eddington?

>>47213
It was too long but alright.

Speaking of which I just watched 'Bugonia', it was mid and the ending 'twist' is bad

>Gezhi Town
poor acting and weird chinese humor but some destruction scenes were good
I liked the ending scene where a chinese rambo was firing a machine gun with huge recoil and spitting blood



 

Often when when talking about leftist fiction, it is in relation to speculative science fiction.I'd like to have a thread to discuss not only fantasy with leftist themes, but fantasy in general.So, read any good fantasy recently?

This is the capeshit film thread
Discuss capeshit
I'll admit I hate Marvel films, first off they're some of the glowies films out there, every single one fellates the Pentagon. The plots are almost all identical, filled with general pro-porky propaganda. The jokes are overdone and stale, literally Adam Sandler humor. The CIA is shit for such expensive productions. The characters are getting stale. Fuck these movies, death of cinema shit piles.

Funniest part is that most of the men are still muscular.

Also inb4 "Muh mutants and Rogue were meant to represent the gay struggle"
Stan Lee literally created the idea of Mutants because he was tired of creating hundreds of backstories for the superpowers his characters had, so it was just "the X-Gene" and it let him create characters more freely… that's it, that was the entire motivation behind the X-Men. And the idea of alienation and wanting to be accepted by society is a universal concept among all people. The flamboyant designs are also just because it was cool, and literally applies to most superheroes in DC and Marvel that have no relation to the X-Men. If gay people identified with it, then good for them, but it wasn't intended to be specific to any one person or group, and people trying to say that are projecting their own political views onto illustrated power-fantasies for children and teens.

IMO Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes is probably the best version of the Avengers. Venxous has a good video series on the individual characters and generally its pretty well made for a capeshit cartoon series.

Also the intro theme slaps.
