This is not the greatest 'KSMR'-Thread song in the world.
This is just a tribute to it.

It's sort of weird that his comatose brain in limbo took him to the lake district. I sort of moved here for much the same reasons - a bit in limbo, post pandemic, ended up knocking at the door of the lake district - "happy place". It's nearly an exact year since I moved here. I didnt put it quite so sentimentally as Richard, but whent I moved up here, it stirred up some memories.
or here
Happy Place - Agreed!

(Something I appreciated was how well they explained the end sequence in microcosm at the beginning. Reminded me of the little CG runthrough at the beginning of Titanic. It strengthens the shit out of the geometry of the action.)
Yeah. I was a little side tracked thinking 'which government contractor is making these CG run-throughs at short notice and in secrecy'.
But, yeah. I shoveled popcorn into my face and carried on watching with delight.

Topic: Top Gun: Maverick (2 replies, posted in Movie Stuff)
I'm still coming down after a little bit of a contact high from just-having-watched-it and thoughts:
Probably the best movie I've seen since mid/post pandemic times - what ever the current state is now with that. Tenet and Bond included. I'm kinda a little blown away by it. Not that its the best movie ever made, but one I don't know how will be beaten for it's rad-ness. 2 Tom 2 Cruises' Top Gun 2 is... TOP FUN.
F18 no green screen is...I dont know how Tom Cruise would top that for bad-ass-ery - stunt-wise. Maybe in space...
Y'know that old chestnut film makers throw about 'we had to endure and overcome some difficult technical challenges making this movie'? This might be the apex of that.
Yes, it's sort of reboot-y/sequal-y laden with 'member berries and a touch sentimental, but it didn't feel cash-grabby or ingenuine. I mean, even the 80's motorbike reprised it's role which made me laugh a little. Back then, it was at the pinacle of bikes, but now, it's a dinosaur. But if the idyll of riding into the sunset in aviators and an airforce jacket with a lady on the back hugging my waiste isn't every bikers dream... (it tracks that I'd focus in on motorbikes in a movie about supersonic jets). I want to be this cool but the reality is a lot of kevlar lined textiles, leather and certified face squishing head safety.
My only hope is they filmed some killer behind the scenes.

Re: Drive to Survive (3 replies, posted in Movie Stuff)
Working through episode 2 now.
On the Mazepin front; I'm surprised he lasted passed the first public debacle. But I'm guesssing Russian money talks...
The Drive to Survive series has done nothing but highlight that I wouldnt want to drive for Ferarri. I know it's steeped in racing prestige but, I think it was the last season, getting insights into how Ferarri's internal press briefings are - I'd say coaching the drivers on what to say, but it's flat out telling the drivers what they can and can't say to protect their brand. It just seemed like the drivers are merely puppets doing their bidding. Makes me wonder why a lot of drivers say it's their dream to drive for them. But then, that's nothing new Ferarri have always sacked discentment in the ranks. To drive and survive there, you gotta tow the party line.
Onwards... to episode 3 _Redbull/Merc - Monaco.

I literally just watched the first episode about an hour ago. Looking forward to seeing the Abu Dhabi episode with all the last race shananigans. Yeah, I'm also pumped for the new season. I've been watching bits of the testing and I hope they fix the porpoising cos man, that looks awful.
