@allie__voss What humane death exists with an animal that doesn't want to die?

I am a huge hater of abusive farming methods but this seems…totally fine to me?
This looks like a very humane death

This is how they do electric stunning for animals in slaughterhouses, and they die instantly.. There are so many details of human civilization that if we really looked closely at them, we’d be shocked.

@mldiffley My problem is just that it isn't competitive. Sure dunks have been repeated but no tension in the competition

@ph7litmus @mindofprospect Isn't this how you end up with American style student loans that *never* leave you? National commercial loans to 18 year olds doesn't sound great
English
@mindofprospect Agreed. But more might lend if assured the loan wouldn’t be written off on bankruptcy (as is true of government student loans), so maybe that should be a thing?
No point refinancing the loan if on an average income tbh as the repayments are low until you earn more.

Also, why does nobody ever do the maths and realise this adds up to over £100k paid back, why are we paying back £108k on a £27k loan? The government are loan sharks

@aaminahinfilm Literally me today trying to sift through my membership cards to find the right one. Was embarrassing lol

got asked how many cinema memberships i have and i think at this point, it would be easiest to say which cinemas i don’t have a membership for

Between The Worst Person in the World and Sentimental Value, Joachim Trier has to be my favourite working director this decade. Both completely original masterpieces that emotionally floor you and linger in your thoughts long after watching them. Incredible visuals, nuanced acting and clever but profound writing. They have it all.
English
I understand why they have to do these projects together, but I kinda wish they’d just skip the original Mistborn trilogy and get right to adapting Wax and Wayne.

Apple has landed the rights to turn ‘MISTBORN’ into a film franchise & ‘THE STORMLIGHT ARCHIVE’ into a TV series. Brandon Sanderson will write, produce and consult on all projects. (Source: hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-n…)

@TylerCWhitmore Freezes in time at the end of the year. I find release dates annoying (festivals, different countries etc) so I just put them in in the year I see it in cinema
English
Stupid, niche, meaningless Letterboxd question for my fellow ranked list makers:
Once you enter into a new year, aka 2026, are you still adding 2025 releases you see now into your 2025 Ranked lists? Or do you let that thing freeze in time December 31st, 2025

@Antbwan @gothamkino I agree lol but unfortunately bad movies make it into theatres!
English
@ImprovingSlowly @gothamkino And it shouldn’t have, it was not a good movie

@Antbwan @gothamkino Highest 2 lowest still got a theatrical release

@startofsvmmer I know that if I have a good time in the cinema, a movie can be bumped up. I would honestly just watch everything in cinema if I could lol

@coopercooperco I've had a small belief that we're getting too much behind the scenes content too quickly. Let there be some mystique pleaseeee
English
For a number of different reasons, I do not understand why more filmmakers and showrunners do not take the Lynch route of “I’m not answering that, watch what I made.”
English
@isaacfeldberg I'm deeply unhappy Eephus hasn't come out in the UK yet
English
@truereddevil99 @letterboxd Yes to your first question. Some people try to put on every movie they've watched. Even if you watch it again, you can later at a date to it.
If it's on a list, it'll stay there. You can set your filter to fade watched films though.
English
@letterboxd does this mean i can add a film i watched before i started using Letterboxd if i don’t know the date and i know i wont watch it ever again but want to record it? Plus if i watch it and its on say a list will it knock it off that list?

If Netflix was smart they’d make their own movie theater chain

@pokescoach @JustineBateman Nowhere. There's plenty of good stuff in cinema that's not even hard to find, just scroll a cinema website from time to time
English
@JustineBateman Amen sister. Used to love going to the movies with my family, but it became unaffordable and the movie quality has gone in the toilet. I don't really care about Hulk 8 or Super whatever 23. Where did the original subjects and quality film making go?
English
This is what’s going on. You can’t put “second-screen” visual muzak in a theater, because it is purposefully designed to NOT hold your attention. An actual film MUST hold your attention for 90-120 minutes. But when the financial endgame of a film is a sale to a streamer, the streamers’ needs for second-screen “content” will be catered to. It’s wallpaper. It’s a waste of time.
Watch any film from the 90’s and beyond. You’ll be shocked at how tight even the most low-brow films were. That’s because they were made with the audience in mind, and not streaming executives.

The truth is when movies are bad, people watch them at home. That’s the real reason audiences stay away from theaters. If the films aren’t worth the trip, they get treated like background noise on Netflix instead of an event on the big screen. Watching at home is just a reflection of that. Strong movies make the format matter, weak ones don’t. When a film has real weight, you want the theater. When it doesn’t, you settle for the couch.

@jtmollner Having Highest 2 Lowest as your only theatrical visit will definitely leave you believing cinema is dead
