Yas' Spiced Hummus: A Rye Lane Inspired Recipe
Yas' Spiced Hummus: A Rye Lane Inspired Recipe
This past January we participated in the Sundance Film Festival’s virtual film festival. One of the films we didn’t get an opportunity to see was Rye Lane due to it only being an in-person showing. Fortunately, we were able to see an early screener and came up with a really fun recipe inspired by the film, Yas’ Spiced Hummus.
In Rye Lane, “two twenty-somethings, both reeling from bad break-ups,…

Can only recommend the movie Drifting Home, made me cry by the end.
I've not encountered anything else that dealt with the feeling of having to move on from a place, not across country but just down the road, so you still have the same school and friends and the only thing taken from you is the physical space that you built so many memories in. And also having it be tied to someone you also lost, that you can't return to, and it's losing yet another connection to them that just aches. There were moments of real fear over their survival as well, the kids getting hurt and injured from either their own mistakes or others, and the possibility of dying bc of that attachment to the past and how dangerous it got, it had a lot of nuance in the symbolism.
It hit close to home (pun intended i guess), and the way the fantastical elements were handled???? Chefs kiss of a cryfest, despite it having an overall positive and happy ending.

Ask A Genius 690: Pornography and Predilections
[Recording Start]
Rick Rosner: We’ve previously touched on the topic of the internet’s role in the decline of the war against pornography. People younger than me might not fully grasp the evolution of what constituted pornography. Just like entertainment has diversified to include increasingly outrageous content, so has pornography. It’s evolved from the innocuous ‘cheesecake shots’ of the…

ok also like. with the first black panther movie i was like, this movie is trying to express or engage with something that the confines of being an MCU movie simply will not allow to be expressed or meaningfully engaged with. the genre/commercial/political reality of the situation places limitations that can't be surpassed. and it makes my head feel like blood is coming out my ears to think about it, but like, whatever. they tried as hard as could be tried. but now it's the second black panther movie and the villain is once again like "i saw real oppression with my own two eyes. that's why i'm a homicidal maniac who wants to set the entire earth on fire now." and at this point i'm like, what? like why would you..... what? like, again, first time out, i'm like: this movie wants to have something to say about racism because it's the black panther movie and an important step in Representation and you unfortunately can't do that while also making an MCU film but i get it. but. but why would you be like, "well this indigenous mayan fish person was so radicalized by witnessing the horrors of slavery while burying his dead mother as literal fish person that he uhhh [checks notes] decided the best course of action was to wage war on the entire planet." like that's like a joke someone would make about the MCU. that's like that post that's like "marvel villains are like, i've fixed global warming and the way i'm going to do it is with the blood of orphan children" or whatever. but it's like just the plot of the movie. and then like on the hero's side it becomes this thing about grief and vengeance and forgiveness and acceptance and growing up and all that and i was like, well, okay, i mean at least they didn't do him like they did killmonger at the end. like i don't love how we got here but the point was that in the end shuri shows mercy on him and that's the right choice so, okay, that's something. they end the cycle of vengeance. lessons learned. cool. BUT THEN WE GET THAT BUTTON SCENE ABOUT HOW NOW NAMOR IS JUST GLAD THAT NOW WAKANDA OWES THEM ONE? like WHAT? like your villain is a guy whose villain origin story is, again, witnessing slavery and almost being murdered while burying her dead mother in the homeland colonizers had driven her out of, and at the end of the movie he's.... still your villain? and also it's not just him but like his entire race of mayan fish people who despite having spent the past five century in political circumstances identical to that of wakanda are like, soulless military drones? (lol i also really thought when nakia shot that guard shuri was like sad because she'd seen their humanity or whatever but no. just this means war for wakanda and that's bad so they gotta run and prepare to fight the people who are bad because they are ready to fight the countries ready to attack them. ok.) like what.... ok. whatever. i don't know. it's whatever. i mean it's not that i expected better it's just that i guess i got my hopes up about maybe this movie not feeling the need to be Political (something the MCU cannot handle being) and then they didn't and, well. choices were made.

Durante la producción de la película "El castillo ambulante" de Studio Ghibli, el director Hayao Miyazaki decidió hacer un cambio significativo en el aspecto del personaje principal, Howl. A diferencia de la novela original, en la que Howl era descrito como un joven atractivo de cabello rubio y ojos azules, en la película fue diseñado como un personaje más maduro, con cabello negro y ojos verdes.
Miyazaki tomó esta decisión por motivos creativos y emocionales. Él sentía que tener a un protagonista joven y guapo podría simplificar la historia y hacer que la audiencia subestimara su complejidad. Al hacer que Howl fuera más maduro y con un aspecto diferente, Miyazaki buscaba resaltar otros aspectos de su personalidad y desarrollo como personaje, como su inseguridad, sus miedos y sus luchas internas. Este cambio permitió que la película explorara de manera más efectiva la complejidad emocional de Howl y transmitiera sus luchas internas y su inseguridad de manera más clara.
En el cambio físico de Howl se puede reflejar enfoque de Studio Ghibli hacia la adaptación cinematográfica y su compromiso con la creación de personajes complejos y bien desarrollados. El nulo temor de los directores, como Hayao Miyazaki, de tomar estas decisiones creativas tan radicales para guiar la trama hacia una historia mas profunda y emocional es lo que hace al Estudio Ghibli uno de los mejores estudios de animación del mundo.
