Movies & TV@hexbear.net•Can anyone direct me to good Marxist critics / film historians?English
3·1 year agoRobin Wood is probably the most well known and respected Marxist film critic. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Wood_(critic)

3·1 year agoNot a fan of this video creator. If you watch enough of their stuff, you tend to notice a weird reactionary viewpoint to their ethos of film.

leadership since workers were allowed to cross the picketline to help load military weapons.

11·1 year ago“I was in Nicaragua with the Sandinistas. I’ve argued for Leonard Peltier, Mumia Abu-Jamal, the United Farm Workers. I’ve been a radical for a long time. I guess it’s too bad. I’d be more marketable as a right-wing redneck. But I got into this to tell the truth as I saw it.”

13·2 years agoHaven’t seen it yet, but hearing Will, Felix and Hesse on Chapo compare Alex Garland to Aaron Sorkin in terms of how they both revere journalists was something I didn’t expect and something I found really funny considering all the people who have tried to defend this movie.

traingang@hexbear.net•How bad is the tow truck industry in the US really?English
2·2 years agoIf it was done for no profit, but people’s cars were still getting towed to out of the way places, it would still be a problem. Also if there was no profit motive than I don’t think the predatory tow industry would exist.

traingang@hexbear.net•How bad is the tow truck industry in the US really?English
30·2 years agoIt’s as bad as you’ve heard. They’re pretty much cops without badges (some even carry guns) in how they target people who may or may not be able to afford the hundreds of dollars it would cost in order to get your car back from them. And that’s if you can figure out a way to get to their base of operations if your only car was towed.

music@hexbear.net•I just listened to Rich Men North of RichmondEnglish
12·2 years agolol like that’s a hard bar to clear. There are FAR better country artists today that don’t have reactionary lyrics like Jason Isbell, Sturgill Simpson and Margo Price or even a mainstream act like Chris Stapleton. Anthony is crap and ignoring a huge aspect of it isn’t going to change anything.

25·2 years agoIf the lyrics were leftist instead of chud no one here would be saying it’s bad
lol
Yeah, if the lyrics weren’t reactionary they would be good. You can say that about every bad song though. Like what if bad….was good!

King Crimson - The band that pretty much started progressive rock and still the best - In The Court Of The Crimson King, Larks Tongues In Aspic and Red are essential listens.
Genesis - a band of two eras, both pretty good. The Peter Gabriel era has some of the best songs in the prog cannon with Selling England By The Pound, Foxtrot and The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway being essential listens. The Phil Collins era merged the catchiness of pop music with the complicated compositions of prog with essential listenings being A Trick Of The Tail, Wind And Wuthering, Abacab and the self titled. If you like live stuff than Genesis Live and Seconds Out are great listens.
Yes - Maybe the most beloved prog band due to writing catchy songs without compromising their progness - The Yes Album, Close To The Edge and Fragile are essential listens.
Gentle Giant - One of the strangest of the prog bands with unique vocal harmonies and compositions inspired by medieval music. Octopus and Free Hand are essential listens.
Emerson, Lake And Palmer - a band synonymous with arena prog, they were easily the biggest prog band during the genre’s peak in the 70s. Essential listens are Brain Salad Surgery, Pictures At An Exhibition and the first album, which is self titled.

27·2 years agoI saw someone refer to this as the liberal God’s Not Dead and I can’t get over it.
LMAO
There are better journalists working that don’t have the reactionary baggage those two have. They’re just broken clocks at this point.

memes@hexbear.net•“Why won't mean tankies give us their vote”English
9·2 years agoI’d argue it’s more unhealthy to dismiss criticisms of liberals, talk down to people in this thread, and say that people rightfully calling them out is “politics of resentment”.





Nah, Scorsese has always been crazy about movies so it wouldn’t surprise me if he’s telling the truth here. This is the guy who imagined and storyboarded a Roman epic when he was 11 so him pointing out aspects in flims that he loved with his friends isn’t outside the realm of possibility.
