“There are people who are fighting hard to change society. I like those people, and I’m always rooting for them, but making the audience feel something naked and raw is one of the greatest powers of cinema.
I’m not making a documentary or propaganda here. It’s not about telling you how to change the world or how you should act because something is bad, but rather showing you the terrible, explosive weight of reality. That’s what I believe is the beauty of cinema.” –– Bong Joon-ho

The only constant is Wolverine.
There are three constants in life: death, taxes, and Wolverine.
anyone else been following the saga of the guy whose neighbor complained to the zoning commission about his fence being too high so he cut down half his fence and then filled his yard with scary naked mannequins as revenge or is that just knowledge i’m personally living with
