Pay No Attention To The Man Behind The Curtain

While not making an effort to prove itself to be something more than a publicity stunt, the so-called “AI” is still making a fuss almost everywhere, be it a legitimate expression of opinion or just a disposable 148 character tweet. Now there’s a latent fanboy in anyone between 30 and…

Fad

My interest in high tech has somewhat diminished in the past years as a result of overexposure and forced commodification. No fascination whatsoever with something that goes from exotic innovation to cliche repetitive toxic ad in minutes. …

Nostalgia Kills

Nostalgia kills, and we’re full of it; there’s a Romanian pun that I’m too lazy to translate here, based on the fact that we’ve got the same word for “before” and “forwards”: “înainte”. It's something like we’re going înainte (forward) because it was better înainte (before). Not that it’s something…

White Man Bad, Blue Man Good — An Unapologetic Review of Avatar 2

(Romanian version below — găsiți mai jos și varianta în limba română) As far as sequels go, 13 years is way too much; even for James "sequel better than the original" Cameron, who declared war on mainstream Hollywood just to turn himself into what mainstream Hollywood stands for: big, loud…

Star Wars — A(nother) Toxic Myth?

It might seem weird, coming from someone like me at least, to have a hostile approach to one of the few real mythologies of our age, the galactic saga known as “Star Wars”. As a cultural phenomenon, SW — both the movies and the additional paraphernalia — defined at least…

Grant Morrison’s “The Invisibles” — The Impossible Review

After reading it three or four times (honestly, I can’t remember) and after taking physical, spiritual, and psychological damage (it’s unavoidable, it’s written this way), I decided to review the most obscure, less know comics series/graphic novel (if read and collected properly) of the turn of the millennium: THE INVISIBLES…

Dreaming of Heroes in the Age of Cunts

I was wondering lately, why so many superhero movies? Why all this fuss, why all these “big names” in showbiz — peoples, studios, corporations — focusing on a single genre, a single idea, a single way of making things, a single marketable product: the “superhero” movie and, recently, streaming series…

Why "Obi-Wan" Is The First STAR WARS Production In 17 Years

Following Lucas' deal with Disney (happening some 10 years ago, if I remember correctly), the hype around STAR WARS and everything it stood for was at an all time high. As the new, "sequel" trilogy was announced, people actually expected to return to a galaxy far, far away, both in…

Procedura de investire a primului-ministru

- farsă în trei acte - — Procedura de investire a primului-ministru reprezintă una dintre cele mai importante etape din instalarea unui nou guvern și a unei noi puteri de stat și de partid, prevăzută în cel mai mic detaliu în Constituție. Procedură indispensabilă a transferului de putere de la fostul executiv la cel nou, aceasta constituie…
